Tomboys

Thanks for the star

Is that you, sis? Still pissed off that I gave your beloved barbie a mohawk??

Yup.
Former active duty Marine and guitar prodigy.Not the girly girl guitar player either, I hang with the big boys and belt out old school Metallica, Megadeth, Pantera, Ministry and more. I piss a lot of them off with the talent, but they end up coming around.
Don't know much about cars, but I used to go four-wheeling a lot.
I am heterosexual and have two kids and a wonderful fiance. I am a natural born leader.
I am going to school for Interior Design as I am also an artist, left handed and all.
I am extremely competitive when it comes to going up against a man.
See ya around. Later.

Yeah, I didn't even play with dolls growing up. I use to be able to do some work on my car. Not so much the new ones. I almost never dress up.

I like to fish, camp, and that sort of thing.

Same here....my trade was machinist also certified welder..
Now I raise 2 kids(married),ride four wheelers and work a pasture.

Welcome - thanks for visiting! I considered the military, but my mom talked me out of it. I was mostly through my application and scheduled for the physical portion into the NYPD (my mother worked there as a POA), but went back to college instead. I've always enjoyed competition with men and most of my friends have been guys.

I can relate to that. I took auto shop instead of home ec in HS

It's just my luck you're married

Hell yes! Here's to able women. cheers!

Awesome! I've always wanted to get into welding as an art form and really should. My husband has all the equipment and gear. And we certainly have the junk around the farm, lol.

I am one with my ATV ~ love riding around with the dogs

I only date tomboys! So much better than girly girls.

I don't even like shopping. Except for food. I like farmers markets. I like cooking. I like doing whatever I can myself, or with the help of someone else. Home repairs, gardening, landscaping, whatever.

I miss having someone to do that stuff with.

Your cool gif reminded me of my penchant for "masculine" pets. I had an aligator, lizards, frogs and snakes as a kid (along with the obligatory dog and cat). I kept lizards until last year when I lost my fabulous day gecko (I think because hubby accidentally gave him tap water - I always gave him Berkey).

I was describing my childhood to someone once and they called me the original rugrat. Always loved to go exploring in the woods and just "get" into things in general. I can wear high heels with the best of them but I'm also a survivor if I have to be.

+1

I love dressing up and have some awesome high heels - now, lol ... but as a kid, wearing a dress was always a pain :)

I concur, but I may be biased :)

Funny, my older sister was a "girly girl". Our mom, however, had been a stone tomboy.

5 stars.
For simply believing you can change the fate that awaits you.

Tomboys are the top prize. Marry one and you won't regret it. That's a fact jack.

I'm very close with my husband - we share so many interests. We butt heads a lot because we both have strong personalities, but I don't think either of us would have it any other way

Even here on GLP, many assume that I'm a guy.

I also assume everyone is a guy, lol. Even some of the gals with female avatars are guys

I sometimes assume I'm a guy too.

I'm now thinking maybe I should never have blown my cover.

There's really nothing to be gained afterall.

Do you ever find yourself thinking about how much easier life would have been if you actually had BEEN a guy?

How many more benefits there are to being a guy?

I'ed do a tom boy if she was hot, but stay off the reef and the track.

I have short hair, never wear makeup and live in jeans and t shirts. I hate dressing up, shopping and jewelry. I think it's stupid that we women shave our legs and wear bras, even though I do both.

However, no, I don't consider myself to be a tomboy.

So, do you know what your "boy" name would be? Your given name as a boy had that turned out?

I'm Tad. Taddy.. Thaddeus.

Nice to meet you.

Yes! always been a tomboy, always had better male friends than girls, i just can't justify dressing up everyday and talking about the latest rubbish like talk shows, fashions, soaps etc!

Love working on cars, it is my one of my fave things to do, and having a beer with a few male mates! Though the ladies seem to have a hatred towards those of us who can have a conversation with blokes.

Don't get me wrong I love a good dress up on a girls night out but i'm lucky as my female friends are very similar to me, thats the luck of country living i guess!

I very much wanted to be a guy when I was younger. It was an issue. I would not answer to my name and would only answer to "Joey" between the ages of two and four, lol.

I'm not sure if life would have been easier, being a guy. Being female has it's advantages as well.

I guess I answered that one already, lol.

Btw, do you have the masculine handset (finger length)? Guys mostly have ring fingers significantly longer than their index fingers. It's the opposite for the gals. Gender nonconformists cross over in this trait. I expect this holds for tomboys.
