    Warning : RANT.

    I am a girl, I like girly things, I also drive a '78 Chevy K-5 Blazer, shoot an SKS, change my own tires, and fix my own damn plumbing...I AM STILL A GIRL! One more person insinuates that I'm "too tough to be girly" I'm gonna curtsy all over their face....
    Sheesh. Please tell me I'm not the only one?
    Keep things in perspective: half the people you ever meet are below average. At least they are nice enough to identify themselves.

    Handy tip for opening jars with lids... Tap edge of lid on kitchen counter once. Button pops up, lid opens easily.
    Kind regards, Martha Stewart.

    Strong women come in all types of packaging.

    This rant is fantastic.

    I weight lift.

    I love floral print anything.

    Nothing is better than a solid ninja movie.

    I have seen Bridget Jones Diary more times than I care to count.

    I have gone to more classical car fairs than people who actually own classical cars.

    My socks currently have pink stars on them and that makes me extraordinarily happy.

    Why do we have these gender stereotypes at all? The fact that standards like these still exist astounds me. Here's to breaking the mold and making strides for feminine strong women of the future.

    Perfect for people who love Tchaikovsky AND old automobiles!

    Most people look at me and say I'm to Girly or to high maintenance . I love to dress up with all the bling BUT I do have a bachelors degree in construction management. I have been know to tear down a wall when my ex ( hubby then) was out of town to open the kitchen and family room up . It was always a joke what I would do when he was gone. These days I don't do much since I travel a lot, I changed my career path and now I'm a flight attentant but I'm not afraid to use tools to build or tear down something.

    We can be feminine and strong at the same time and damn it we are sexy since we can do both!!!!!

    All my life I've been the tough one. I carried all the heavy boxes, helped catch the tom turkeys and hauled the heavy branches to burn. I like looking nice. I clean up good when I feel like it.

    Of course you can be. I drive a forklift at work and in my free time I can be found shooting, gaming, or tinkering with stuff.

    All while wearing something sexy :P
