Girly girl or tomboy?

[blue_hours_too]

Busy, busy, busy. And not so much in the mood for journalling as it is suddenly summer... Regardless of the fact that officially, spring hasn't even arrived yet! Today we had record-breaking temps. On the news they said it was the warmest March 12 since 1954. I want to go down to Pedro tomorrow and stay for the day. Hang out at the park, down to

Neither, actually, I'm just me. I never put on make-up because I think it's bad for the skin, but I can be pretty vain about my hair... though I favour comfortable over attractive anytime in my dress style.

Sorry, I'm not being very helpful here, am I :(

I'm a manly man! Haha, well I don't know about all that, but yeah, I think I have a bit of both mixed in. I don't walk around with my chest sticking out, acting like I can run over everybody all the time. I was raised in a household surrounded by women, five sisters, and very low male influence until later on in life. So, in some ways I'm still learning how to be a man. I think, or at least I hope, I'm ok though.

i'm pretty minimalistic when it comes to make-up and beauty products. i'm happy with my lip gloss and eye-liner and a little bit of mascara. i don't usually use foundation on my skin, but sometimes i use a little bit of pressed powder when i want to look 'flawless'. hehe. and Cosmo is definitely NOT my bible. so maybe, like you, i'm an in between? :)

post a pic of yourself! i'm curious to see.

I think this is a great question. I would say that now I am more neutral, I want the expensive hair cuts and nice clothes that are appropriate for me age. But I don't wear make-up and I have no problem doing heavy manual labor when it is require - I even own my own chainsaw.

This has changed over time. Up until the age of 13, I was a tomboy. Then, I switched in high school and tried to be more girly. I think over the last ten years since high school, I have found a happy medium between the two.

I think I just am who I am irregardless of associating with an identity one way or the other. I'm neither tomboy nor girlygirl. I have many traits of a typical tomboy but I'm in no way 'rough around the edges' or without class.

My parents really didn't pigeonhole me on this issue and I grew up being comfortable doing whatever I pleased...
Some of my friends would have been surprised to see me wearing a dress at formal diplomatic functions while others would be surprised to see me covered in mud and chasing after snakes.
Really depends on how I interact with them and in which settings.

I would imagine it's something similar for you- in the sense of having more than one limited dimension to your personality?
