I took my dolls and boiled them in a pot. I like climbing trees and going out on "discoveries". I had one or two close girl friends growing up but they tended to be like minded.

Ha ha ha- one of my girlfriends growing up cut her dolls to pieces! I think the worst I did was bend their legs backwards at the knee.

While I do have a feminine side, I have always leaned toward tomboy. I loved to play army (I would be the Lt and make my brother be the Private... ), play in the mud, play sports (the more aggressive the better), etc. I did have barbies, but I usually played "army barbie" or "spy barbie" though... Of course, Barbie needed pretty dresses but I'm sure if they made camouflage for Barbie when I was a kid, I would have bought it....

I'm still this way. I have a definite feminine side (I love to crochet, cook, garden) and I do get along great with most women (although women who are too girly do drive me nuts!), but I'd rather be playing football in the backyard with the guy cousins than chatting with the women in the kitchen....

LOoks like alot of women who like to post on computerized forums and a tom boyish tendency. I wonder how that compares with no computer savvy women?


Interesting, I did not consider the demographics of that possibillity.

tomboy.

but i was never good at sports.

i would just rather play with the boys than the girls.

and i liked matchbox cars and tonka trucks over dolls and stuff like that.

and i have never been a girlie girl - even as an adult.

Total Tomboy! I still have the scars from getting the gravel picked out of my legs. I'll never forget, I was around 15 and my best buddy looked at me and said "My Gosh...you REALLY ARE a girl"! I was wearing a bathing suit and shorts and by then there was no mistaking it!
I'm still a tomboy...but now I do like to dress up and do my hair and nails and stuff...

Tomboy.

My favourite place was at the top of a big apple tree in our garden. I'd sit up there for ages looking up at the sky, enjoying the swish of the leaves, watching the birds, and basically just hiding away from the rest of the world.

Happy days....

I was a tomboy- played ball with the guys, hunted, fished, camped out, rode horses and bikes all over, helped my grandaddy on the farm. I never wore make-up or styled my hair, and always wore jeans or cut-offs with t-shirts, flannel shirts, etc.

Yeah, I could and did dress up for church or to go out to dinner with my family, and had been taught very proper manners. Still, I was more comfortable with a hammer or wrench than I was with a purse. Still am.

I was 99% girly girl...maybe more. I was very active but even those activities were more geared to girls...dance classes, gymnastics, volley-ball and cheerleading.

I'm still a girly girl and proud of it!

I was somewhere in the middle. More of a girlie girl than tomboy though. Still am.

Well, I was called a 'Tomboy'. So I guess that made/makes me one! I always preferred being outside where I could have the most fun. Dirt? Loved it! Built roads with little brother and then pour water in it so we could make mud pies (or mud monsters). Climbed trees or the mountains, did dare-devil stunts on our bikes, swung from ropes in the trees, shot sling-shots or bow & arrows, (still like target shooting!), built dams, fished, camped out, explored caves, played cowboys & indians, played marbles, baseball...

Whew! Makes me wish I was a kid again! I did love my dolls, but didn't play with them a whole lot. I (like others who've posted) wasn't a girly-girl (big sister played that role. LOL) and I still ain't. Although, I can be one, when I 'need' to be. I just don't see making myself miserable, unless it's absolutely necessary.
CONFESSION: I loved chasing the 'girly-girls' with a bug or frog or whatever would make them scream! (It was worth getting in trouble over.)
Yep. TOMBOY. Definitely, TOMBOY!

That reminds me of a choir retreat in high school. A friend and I happened across a group of baby garter snakes. We thought it was so cool...


....The guys were freaked...

Tomboy!
My older sister was the girly girl, yet she learned to kiss many toads when I planted several in her bed one night! And yeah I paid for that one!

In the fifth grade I was the only person on my team who would actually dissect the cow heart. The others just watched

I'm actually very grateful to the Lord for my tomboy tendencies. Being a single mother of two sons, it has really helped out.

My friend who was on the tomboy side says the same thing...she has three boys. I've always thought the Lord knew exactly what He was doing to give me daughters!
