Miranda Kerr Says Women 'Need to Make a Little Effort' When It Comes to Pleasing a Man
If you’re having trouble pleasing your man, Miranda Kerr has an easy solution. All it takes is a fancy dress, some candles, and learning to “slip into” your “feminine”—whatever that means.
In May, the model and mother walked down the aisle to wed Snapchat CEO Evan Spiegel. Now, she’s opening up about her married life, saying the apparent key to her marital success is due to a rather old-school tip she picked up from her grandmother.
“My grandma taught me that men are visual and you need to make a little effort,” Kerr told The Edit in a recent interview. She revealed that when her husband comes home, she’s always prepared with the perfect mood lighting and a brand new outfit.
“…When [Evan] comes home, I make sure to have a nice dress on and the candles lit,” she said. “We make time to have a nice dinner together.”
Must be nice! But don’t put away your notebook yet, ladies, because Kerr has some more top-notch advice for you.
Kerr noted that she may be a boss in the boardroom with her skincare line KORA Organics, but she tries to bring out her “feminine” side at home—which she equates to being submissive—for Spiegel.
“At work, I’m like, ‘We need to do this!’ and, ‘This needs to happen!’ But at home, I slip into my feminine and empower Evan to be in his masculine,” Kerr revealed.
When asked what she meant by “slip into your feminine,” Kerr said, “Just be more in my feelings. More gentle, leaning back. It’s a nice balance.”
Kerr went on to credit some of her business’ success to Speigel, saying the Snapchat co-founder “inspired her” to focus more of her energy on her own company rather than wasting it on other peoples’.
“He said, ‘Why are you spending your energy working for other companies when you should be focusing on your own? You need to take a risk. If you believe in this, put everything into it,'” Kerr said.
Her marriage advice may be a little antiquated, but Kerr’s unorthodox beauty regimes are anything but. She’s apparently a fan of leech facials—”You can feel their little teeth,” she said—and magnet treatments that involve placing magnets all over your body for 15 minutes. “It’s magic,” she said. Whatever floats your boat, girl.
