Video interview about women/men relationships, questions about elegant living
Q: What do you teach?
A: Modern elegance for women, how they can live an elegant life in today’s society.
Q: Define elegance.
A: The core of elegance is to be a kind, friendly human being. A lot has to do with attitude, how you see and respect yourself.
Q: What is elegance not?
A: A lot of people believe that elegance means being superior to others or other stereotypes, such as elegance is stiff and boring. Perhaps it was like this in the past, nowadays we are more flexible and open.
Q: What is your most important formula for becoming an elegant woman?
A: You need kindness, compassion, respect towards others but also towards yourself.
Q: How much does it cost to transform a Cinderella into a princess?
A: That’s cliché. A lot of people think that elegance costs but it can also be free; it’s about your inner state. I know a lot of people who are poor yet elegant.
Q: Who do you find particularly elegant? Who is an elegance role model?
A: There are many. Kate Middleton, for example, is very elegant.
Q: And Angela Merkel? How elegant is the German Chancellor?
A: Very elegant! She is almost a brand! She dresses according to her age and position, she embodies a classic style. Timeless.
Q: Tell us about your students. What kind of women do you teach?
A: Different kinds. Normal women who want to get rid of their bad habits reach out to me. Others are interested in visual elegance. A lot of them participate because of a professional goal, to get promoted.
Q: Does your course help careers?
A: Absolutely. Of course, I also teach women who come because of money. My course is open to all, a natural mix.
Q: When you think of your elegant women, how should they be treated?
A: I don’t think that that they should be treated any different.
Q: What do you think of a man holding the door for a woman?
A: Oh, I love it.
Q: Is it still modern for the man to cover the bill?
A: A very nice gesture. I don’t want to say that every man has to do it.
Q: But he should?
A: Nowadays there’s a tendency to split the bill or at least take turns. I personally think it’s nicer when the man takes care of the financial burden. I mean, being a woman is still a lot more expensive.
Q: To what extent has men’s behaviour changed towards you since you’ve become elegant and successful?
A: Difficult to say, I have always been with my husband before I became self-employed.
Can’t read the rest of the answer, nor the following two questions.
Q: Is it true that good-looking women get approached less because men don’t have the courage?
A: Definitely! Some men are totally intimidated. Those who aren’t particularly self-confident even more so. Nevertheless, I would say that in general, elegant women stand out. This is why they attract more attention. That’s what I, as well as my students experience: many say that they are getting more compliments since they’ve been implementing my tips.
Q: What flattery goes too far?
A: When you are lacking respect, being sexist or pushy, you are overstepping the boundaries.
Q: They say that in Switzerland nine out of ten women have been publicly harassed in public. Is there any advice that you could give to women on how they can get by undamaged?
A: No, because that would mean that it’s the woman’s mistake.
Q: What’s your solution?
A: Certain men don’t respect women. We have to educate those, and not tell women to do this or that.
Q: Can you think of a behaviour that provokes harassment?
A: Not really. I doesn’t matter what the woman does. Men will harass her anyway.
Q: Under what circumstances would you approach a man?
A: Never in a romantic situation, but in a non-romantic setting, yes. Let’s say, in a shop. When I’m interested, I won’t speak to the man directly but send him the signal that I want to be approached.
Q: What kind of signals?
A: A smile, a glance.
Q: And that means “Go”?
A: Yes, those are the universal signals, aren’t they?
Q: As you say. A different topic: feminism. As an elegant woman, what are your thoughts? Are they compatible?
A: Of course! I have been a feminist since my youth. There are different branches in this movement: mainstream feminism for example, which we know is loud and shrill. I don’t like this one at all. Elegant women like me have a different concept, a traditional one: we appreciate the gender roles, femininity and so on but we want to be equal like modern feminists.
Q: What is the biggest differences between traditional and modern feminism?
A: The idea that men and women are not one hundred percent identical. Nowadays it’s almost unfair because everything has to be the same.
Q: What is the most positive difference between man and woman?
A: The opposite attracts. I like my husband’s masculinity and I am certain that my husband likes my femininity.
Q: Describe femininity.
A: It includes compassion, softness and kindness. Beauty and care.
Q: And masculinity?
A: Being strong, offering safety and security -
can’t read the rest, can’t read the following Q/A
Q:
can't read the question
A: We shouldn’t just accept our differences but celebrate them as well. It’s beautiful that we are all different!
Q: Is there a universal definition of beauty?
A: No, ideals vary according to countries and cultures.
Q: What is your definition of beauty?
A: Someone who looks healthy is beautiful. Every sign of it is important to me: long, thick hair, good skin.
Q: What is, in your opinion, more important for a successful life as a woman: beauty or intelligence?
A: A pretty face is temporary. Just because a woman is beautiful, it doesn’t mean that she will remain so. In this case I think: intelligence is more important.
Q: Is it legitimate to use beauty for your career?
A: Beauty is only an extended form of communication - like an external brand. Why shouldn’t one use it?
Q: As a “woman’s weapon” as they say?
A: (laughs) Yes! The problem begins when someone is only beautiful and nothing else. Then, I think, it is not sufficient these days.
Q: What is enough for a happy life?
A: Time, health, family.
Q: What is the essence of love?
A: When you feel like you’re at home.
Q: What is necessary to make a relationship with this person work?
A: You have to be there for each other, care for one another. I am happy to have found a man who loves me and does everything for me. I do the same for him.
Q: Would you give up everything you have for a man?
A: I would do but not give up everything. Women must not chase just one man.

, which shows by itself that the whole "glass by the stem" crap everybody is selling today on Internet is just a crap coming from : a) a lack of knowledge of the savoir-vivre domain and b) a confusion with waiters and sommeliers ways of doing. I think
