女汉子再强也是女人
[nǚ hàn zi zài qiáng yĕ shì nǚ rén]
This means 'However strong a woman is, she is still a woman', highlighting the inherent tenderness in strong women. In contemporary culture, a 'tough woman' is used to describe a girl that possesses characteristics of independence, courage, but deep inside she needs care and protection just like any other women.
