| Tom Boy's, a Plus or a Minus in Men's Books? Posted: 6/22/2006 10:51:02 AM | I was a tomboy until I decided to change myself(not too long ago) and act girly. But believe me guys want tom boyish girls as friends , they do not want them as girlfriends.

I think there's nothing wrong with acting like a tomboy but dressing like one is not cool!
Well until I started reading this forum I never really thought about how I dress. Or if im considered a tom BOY or tom GIRL . I can do minor repairs to my jeep, dirt is dirt and will wash off, I camp I fish, and I love watching football on Sundays, I drink beer out of a bottle, and I have team stickers on my jeep, and I collect any thing that has to do with my team. I wear football related clothing (during the season) I wear Jeans!! And t-shirts most of the time.some time ill wear a dress shirt. My shoes consist of different colored hiking boots, tennis shoes, and flat sandals. I do wear pink and baby blue and usually my boots match my shirt accompanied with jeans and a leather belt. I wear make up and use hair products, my nails and toes are painted and usually have art work on them, but I do them myself I don’t ever go to a beauty salon. I wear jewelry but not allot, the same 5 pieces every day. I work in a construction office but not on a construction sight, however am not afraid of a power tool.... so what’s the verdict>> tom BOY...or tom GIRL??....

| Tom Boy's, a Plus or a Minus in Men's Books? Posted: 6/22/2006 9:01:54 PM | WHY do some of you people think that tom boys never act feminem??? A toy boy is basically just saying we aren't scared to get our hand dirty... we enjoy a few macho things like fishing, hunting, using power tools... we aren't worried about how we look when we're working in the yard.. on our vehicles.. or anything else. This does NOT mean we are the dyke looking women who dress like MEN.. wear mens clothes and have our hair cropped off!! When the times comes and we need to "clean up" then we know how to do our nails, fix our hair, take a bath, put on make up and YES.. even wear heels when we need to!!! Most "girly girls" want make up on anytime they leave the house... they would cring at getting motor oil on them (or their pink shoes) Where most girly girls do not enjoy anything a tom boy does.. some tom boys do enjoy doing girly things once in awhile, even if it for a "shock affect".. LOL.. I do love it when some see me wearing makeup and dressing nicer.. they are like.. WOW!!! YOU clean up good!! I just think it's funny... | |

| Tom Boy's, a Plus or a Minus in Men's Books? Posted: 6/22/2006 9:38:04 PM | | Hopefully, it will be a plus lol I am sitting here in my motorcycle t-shirt, holey jeans, and hair in a ponytail. Just got done checking the oil and other fluids in my car. I know how to change the oil and fix a flat, along with take apart the bathroom sink to fix a drain issue. I own 2 guns, and my father taught me how to shoot when I was 9. I am a tomboy to the core (you should see the scars on my knees from when I was a kid lol). I can't remember the last time I called my daddy or any other man to fix anything for me around the house. Just ignore the spot where I had to repatch the wall from an anchor gone astray lol On the same token, I am currently wearing makeup, my nails are manicured, I have a french manicure on my toes, and diamond studs in my ears, love to dress up as much as I love to dress down, I have a wicked shoe fetish, and am a sucker for lillies. | |

| Tom Boy's, a Plus or a Minus in Men's Books? Posted: 6/22/2006 9:41:48 PM | tyra.... OMG.... I LOVE SHOES!!!! I can remember, I had one job I was a secretary and had to dress. My shoes ALWAYS had to match my purse and my belt if I wore one!! People just can't see me liek that now but I have a job where I do not have to dress up and can wear jeans and tshirts. I usually wear my hair in a braid or pony tail depending on what I"m doing around the house.
I'm a true tom boy.. but I will dress up at times... maybe some of us are just more versatile than others.. | |

My ex-wife is a tomboy, most of my GF's before her were too. I always had better relationships with them than the girlie-girl types as I feel they expressed themselves more freely and were much more fun to be around (nevermind they were almost ALWAYS better in bed too) | |

Posted: 6/26/2006 3:34:51 PM | I want a Tom Boy for my birthday, then another for Easter (great to practice the 'bunny bounce' with ...and all that melting chocolate, too...) ...then another for Christmas....can never get enough Tom Boys......esp those that can be a woman, too, when need be, ie, know how to dress up and show her feminine side.  | |

| Tom Boy's, a Plus or a Minus in Men's Books? Posted: 6/29/2006 7:46:25 PM | I like a woman who is both a tomboy and able to put on a dress and go into a "finer" setting. Ponytails are very attractive on the right woman....and most women are the right woman for a ponytail. | |

Posted: 6/29/2006 9:52:06 PM | I like tom boys they are a big help when I am doing a job that requires two people and I can't find anybody to help out.I love it when a woman isn't afraid to get her hands dirty.I have seen some tom boys that get really dirty doing jobs,But they still clean up nice and can look good dressed up.Just because they like to do mans work doesn't mean they can't be a lady. | |

| Tom Boy's, a Plus or a Minus in Men's Books? Posted: 7/14/2006 5:24:15 PM | Depends on the type and the reason.
If she's doing this stuff because she's got something to prove then I wan't no part of her because she's a walking attitude problem.
If she does "because she can" then no problem at all.
I had a gf like this years ago. Not the full on tom boy but the bit that amused me was that she wore jeans most of the time. But she usually wore stockings and suspenders under them. | |

Posted: 7/14/2006 5:50:33 PM | Girlfriends tell me off when they bring a man around that they think is a " good catch" to find me wearing scruffs and laying a deck =============================== If he is a good catch he will be more than happy to join you laying the deck. And happier still to join you in the shower afterwards. | |

I am not sure about the women who doesn't want to go outside and get dirty and have fun. If your girl that can't go hiking (or just outside) in the rain and not have to worry about your hair, etc., pee outside, light firecrackers, go camping without a bath, or just plain ENJOY life as a kid forever, what use are they?????? 
You have to have fun-we are all here for only such a short time. Too many people take life to seriously and don't relax enough to have fun(ny) time and enjoy it. 
I say stay 17 forever!!! i really have no desire to grow up, and probably never will.  | |

RE: "I was a tomboy until I decided to change myself(not too long ago) and act girly. But believe me guys want tom boyish girls as friends , they do not want them as girlfriends."
Hey, darling, you bring those cute looks into my neck of the woods, and I'll show you just how adorable you are...even in your kodiaks (OK how about JUST in your kodiaks?, LOL )
Guys with no guts don't like tom boys as they're intimated by them...but strong confident guys LOVE LOVE LOVE tomboy girls...esp when you get her to wear a nice dress/become very woman like later (Oh, boy that cold shower is looking good 'bout now).
I must admit, too, that I've had quite a few tomboyish girls who could kick my butt in any number of activities and I became really shy as they would sometimes initate making ''the moves'' on me....that is, until we're between the sheets and then I turn the tables on 'em. God bless the TomBoys of the world...yahoo!!! | |
