    I've softened up over the years, however:
    1. Make up is OK for occasions but I can't wait to wash it off!
    2. my hair is thining and out of control, so pretty "sexy, girly" hair is out of the question.
    3. I swear like a "sailor" from yesteryear but really trying to control that
    4. I DON'T WEAR SEXY NIGHTIES!!!
    5. high heels are pretty but really hurt my feet, love wearing sneakers or flipflops better known on the islands as "slippa's"
    so the answer is not a stereo typical older lady!

    I MUCH prefer short hair on myself.
    I have no problem pulling out my tools and fixing/making something
    I like sleeping alone (I like the break I get when my husband is working away)
    No maternal clock
    I can change a tire
    Being a clothing designer doesn't defy my gender, but wanting to design menswear does!

    I'm really good at drywall and carpentry, and incredible at painting. Sorta good at plumbing and electrical.

    I can't fold a fitted sheet. I know how. I just don't see the point. I fold the flat sheet, wad up the fitted, and fold it inside the flat with the folded pillow cases so it doesn't look horrible while in the linen cabinet.

    Oh, forgot one.

    My husband has NEVER bought me jewelry outside of my engagement ring, wedding ring, and an antique pearl bracelet that I was eyeballin' the *kitten* out of. He buys me video games, MTG cards (yes, I am THAT big of a nerd), concert tickets, or the aforementioned porn. Diamonds are not my best friend. Hell, they're not even on my friends list.

    MTG! HELL YEAH! What colours do you play? How much did you love/hate the Innistrad Block? How much are you looking forward to Return to Ravnica?!? Any idea on what guild you want to play yet!?? :D:D:D:D

    -I'm a huge Steelers fan. Very football-oriented.
    -I don't collect/buy a ton of shoes or purses. (have a few, but don't have a "thing" for them)
    -I don't like to shop except once in a while when I actually need something.
    -Love to shoot guns.
    -Change my oil and breaks myself
    -I love camping and don't mind getting dirty
    -I love monster truck ralleys (don't judge LOL)
    -I love cars
    -I take quick showers and can get ready quickly (and still look nice)
    -I'm more of a flip flops/sneakers type chick, but I will wear heels here and there
    -I'm an absolute speed demon
    -I laugh at inappropriate jokes...all the time.
    -I love to fix things, put furniture together, figure out electronics on my own.

    Ehhh I'm just me. If it fits into the stereotype then oh well.

    Edited to add the fixing thing.

    I'm a mechanical engineer.
    I'm more likely to try to fix things than my fiance.
    I love video games, action movies, and sci fi/fantasy novels.
    I don't wear makeup most days and I let my hair air dry.
    My typical outfit is a t-shirt and jeans.

    I hate watching sports...
    Except for a few glasses of wine, which I hated, never tasted alcohol.
    I know how to do laundry, though still have a problem folding button up shirt
    I do most of the cleaning... if not all of it
    I know how to cook, and enjoy it.
    I would rather read a book, pull weeds, cook dinner, etc etc; than sit down to watch tv
    I am a one woman man... even if she is no where around, no other will cross my mind the same way.
    I listen more than I talk
    I probably know more than I should; about a lot of things, including the female mind... What, you have >10 classes, where you are the only guy... and tell me you don't learn.

    Ok, I think I fit all of the stereotypes about women... I can't think of one that I'm NOT.. :(

    LOL As I'm reading, I"m starting to think the same thing, although I am super into sports. I don't get all dolled up every day, but that's only because I'm a mom, and I do still like to be girly. I can't do any DIY stuff... Oh but I do love porn, haha!

    1) I love to lift and push myself to the next level.
    2) I'd rather watch a baseball game than a chick flick.
    3) I only buy shoes when I have to (special occasion or my old ones are worn through)
    4) I love beer and Buffalo wings (give me a good microbrew over a girly cocktail any day!)

    There are probably more, those are just off the top of my head :D

    I do not celebrate Valentine's Day. It took three years of not celebrating Valentine's Day to convince my poor husband that I wasn't secretly expecting him to do something lavish and "surprise" me.

    Don't do make-up w/ the exception of lip gloss
    Almost never wear heels
    I absolutely love playing/watching/talking about sports
    My idea of a fun night would probably be pizza night (or homemade taco night), while watching basketball :-D

    and oh yea, I HATE chick-flicks

    I don't like getting flowers. Most sentimental gestures are lost on me.
    I'm always forgetting birthdays and anniversaries.
    I'm not generally passive-aggressive with my husband. If I have a problem, he knows it. I don't do the "Nothing's wrong, everything's fine" crap when it's not fine.
    I don't like shopping for clothes.
    I can totally live without chocolate.

    I hate cleaning and I love to burp and fart.....

    Porn is a must and I dont dress to impress. I dress to be comfortable (ok, and still look cute)

    I wear flip flops on most days and use cuss words like a sailor

    Beer is my go-to drink and can eat pizza like nobodys business.

    Not to mention, I can knock a *kitten* out when need be.

    Im more like "one of the guys" in a non-lesbian way :)
    ^^^So full of win.

    I think I'm in lurve...

    1. I DO NOT throw like a girl
    2. I can throw a nearly perfect spiral with a football
    3. I can talk sports-football, baseball, racing, and even a little b-ball-better than most men
    4. I don't mind snakes
    5. I'm a darn good painter-thanks to my PawPaw
    6. I can handle a shotgun :)
    7. I don't use a headache as an excuse NOT to do dirty things to my boyfriend...I use that as my excuse to do it =D

    That being said, I love my purses and heels, but I could live in flip flops

    The guys at grappling normally call me Horlicks because I do a fine sleeper hold :)
    I can't wear heels (aside from the size 10 feet I walk like groucho marx )
    I don't do make up (instant morph back into teenage goth)
    I like horror movies and I'm good with a sledge hammer..

    I rarely lose my temper; revenge is a dish best served cold.
    However, I have guns and can shoot them. Well.
    I curse like a sailor with anger management issues.
    I love makeup, but rarely wear it.
    I have no problem with porn.
    I don't flirt.
    I love computers, video games, and comic books.
    "Top Gear" makes me have needs that I'm too poor to assuage.
    I hate shopping. I make a plan and carry out the mission.

    1.) My burps could trump a guys any day (and believe me, my boyfriend is jealous... or just grossed out. I can't tell).
    2.) I love comics (from an artist's standpoint, but still).
    3.) There is no better way to spend a hot weekend than roughin' it in the wilderness. Mmm, I love me that campfire smell!
    4.) I apparently have a great sense of humor. And it saddens me when I find most men are surprised after discovering this.
    5.) I work in a geeky male-dominated industry. I am an 3D animator :)
    6.) My favorite genre of music to this day still remains old school Punk.
    7.) I love lizards and snakes!
    8.) Oh, and I fart too.

    Thanks :drinker:
