The Metal Woman
The Metal woman is sophisticated and idealistic.
Appearance

Thandie Newton embodies that stillness and perfection of Metal that is separate from the chaos and mess of the world.
Metal strives for perfection as in Ziyi Zhang’s geisha character; a Metal woman in a Metal role.
Olivia Wilde exemplifies the icy, aloof, even cutting beauty of the Metal woman.
Health
The Metal element is represented in the lungs and large intestine. The lung is the minister of the body. Removed from the mundaneness of life, it forms a pristine white canopy around the heart. The lungs house the PO, the physical aspect of the soul that is tied to the body and our senses.
When we are predominant in an element, it means that we hold both a gift and a challenge. If you have a lot of Metal energy you have the potential for sophistication, mastery, and perfection. You are also challenged by rigidity, isolationism, a critical tongue, and an inability to handle the roughness of the world.

Sex and Relationships
Metal seeks the ideal love. They keep a list of what they want and what they will not tolerate. Unbalanced Metal women can go completely cold and never let anyone in close.
Everything for a Metal type is about perfection. Metal women are detail-oriented lovers. They are often attracted to the ritual aspect of Daoist or Tantric sexual practices or to the strictly defined role play of BDSM.
