Have you ever wondered why women from the south are called, 'Steel Magnolias?' The answer to that is why men the world over are just a little bit scared of southern women!

Why do men find southern women scary?

What a great question! It's definitely not our cooking because most southern women learned that particular art at a young age. It's not because we're not God-fearing or submissive to our husbands, because most of us are like that, too. We'll come back to this...

Why are so many southern women called, 'Steel Magnolias?'

It's because southern women epitomize the term 'steel magnolia,' which is defined by YourDictionary.com as, 'A woman who exemplifies both traditional femininity as well as an uncommon fortitude.' Yep, we're pretty, but we're also very strong, and if you're threatening something we hold dear, good luck! The very thing that draws men to southern women is the same thing that also makes them think twice before acting a fool. If you ask me, this TikToker, Zach Rushing, has hit the nail on the head when it comes to women in the South.

Now I'm not bashing northern women. There are plenty who would go all momma bear on anyone or anything threatening their loved ones, but southern women? We're just built differently. We'll harvest an eight-pointer then make you and your friends a gourmet dinner at the deer camp over an open fire or on a Coleman stove. Southern women don't play when it comes to the ones they love.
