    Girly
    I have long red hair that I take care of.
    I can cook and come from a house full of men who can cook, so my food has to stand up or they will tell me it sucks. lol
    I like dominant men (and happily married to one).
    I love to take care of my house. (Which in some ways could be considered non girly but it always has a very girly purpose.) I'll do pretty much anything to my house from refinishing my kitchen cabinets by myself or painting 20 foot high ceilings, just to make it more pretty.
    I love chick flicks.

    Not so girly
    I love to argue with people.
    I swear.
    I rarely ever have my finger nails done, it’s a waste of time when you paint and strip/stain furniture as much as I do.
    I use our shed and tools as much or more than my husband.
    I could care less about going to the store without makeup on.
