Another me meme.

[vilakins]

Yep, another meme, this one from astrogirl2's blog.

You Are 20% Girly

Um... you're a guy, right? If not, you're the most boyish girl in the world. And for you, that's probably the ultimate compliment.

How Girly Are You?

That's pretty accurate but I'm not sure how I'm "the most boyish girl in the world" when Astro got the same thing with 4%. Doubtless I scored higher than her for having a fear of horror films, streaks in my hair, and an inordinate amount of bling which I wear with my trousers and shirts (at least half of which were made for men). Yeah, mixed messages, but hey.

Um I'm more of a guy than you then I only scored 16%!!!!!!!
That's only because I don't do athletics and am a sucker for puppies and kittens

[jaxomsride.livejournal.com]

Oh and I wouldn't shop at Hot Topic because we don't have one.

[vilakins.livejournal.com]

I didn't tick the puppies and kittens myself because they had babies in there. I prefer my humans sentient.

[vilakins.livejournal.com]

I missed out a lot of the US ones too, but then I buy the few clothes I do get mail-order. I loathe shopping.

[imhilien.livejournal.com]

I'm 40% girly - at least it's not higher! ;-)

[vilakins.livejournal.com]

And lucky purple doesn't give bad points like pink!

I got 16%. Ridiculously streotyped - have they never met blokes who dye their hair? Doesn't work either, putting puppies, kittens and babies in one bracket - yes, I'm a sucker for kitties but indifferent to puppies and think all babies except my former own are exceptionally ugly.

[vilakins.livejournal.com]

Which is why not even the kittens could swing that one for me.

You're right, lots of guys dye their hair now. It's testing girliness rather than whether or not you're female, so I was all right with that. :-)

[azdak.livejournal.com]

I'm 14% girl which, given the questions, I consider ridiculously high. But then I did two other memes this morning and apparently I'm also 20 years old and come from New York City.

I don't see how anyone, regardless of gender, can not like puppies and kittens!

[jomacmouse.livejournal.com]

Surprised they didn't mention shoes, and that's the kind of shopping I hate the most. 'Though if I had the money, I would go shopping every week - for books...

[vilakins.livejournal.com]

Ah, but they put babies in there which meant I didn't pick that. :-P

[vilakins.livejournal.com]

Yeah, what it is with this supposed fascination for shoes and ponies women are meant to have?

[azdak.livejournal.com]

They should just have put babies is what I meant. Although I think the kind of people who really go doo-lally over babies aren't girly girls ("Ick! It's being sick on my spaghetti straps!") but grandmothers and Italian men. And me :-) I adore babies.

[vilakins.livejournal.com]

I prefer 'em older, when they can hold a conversation and play with me. :-)

[san-valentine.livejournal.com]

I also got 20% girly. I don't have five or more pairs of heels, though I do have about 100 pairs of earrings. And I'm fairly certain I don't have five skirts or five dresses.

Being girly is not the same as being feminine, which I think is more important. And possibly more suitable, when you've just turned 40.

[astrogirl2.livejournal.com]

Apparently you have to be obsessed with shoes to qualify as "girly." :)

And I'm another one who skipped the puppies, kittens, and babies because there was an "and" instead of an "or." I figured one out of three didn't qualify. Babies and puppies can be extremely cute, when they're behaving well, but I am capable of resisting. We all know my track record with kittens, though. :)

[astrogirl2.livejournal.com]

Oh, and...

Doubtless I scored higher than her for having a fear of horror films, streaks in my hair, and an inordinate amount of bling which I wear with my trousers and shirts (at least half of which were made for men). Yeah, mixed messages, but hey.

Maybe I'm dim, but I don't see a mixed message there. I don't see a message there, just a personal taste. *scratches head*

[astrogirl2.livejournal.com]

...and that's not the icon I meant to use, but now I'm wondering how Noranti'd score on "girliness." :)

[jaxomsride.livejournal.com]

Nah I'm still a sucker for babies of any species, I even think eaglets are cute ( and the vampire babies from Van Helsing - as you can see I have a broad definition of cute!

[jaxomsride.livejournal.com]

I never can get the fasacination with shoes either. With me its jackets and waistcoats - its my Regency/Georgian Dandy showing!

[vilakins.livejournal.com]

Being girly is not the same as being feminine

Or female; I agree. And I'm the same with the earrings and shoes; I don't even own one pair of heels yet I must have about 30 pairs of earrings.

[vilakins.livejournal.com]

Ahhh, yes, I'm exactly the same. The local paper runs a picture of a homeless (but fostered by The Lonely Meow) kitten each week and I want every one of them, esp the ones who aren't very pretty and are left behind when their litter mates have gone. :-(

[vilakins.livejournal.com]

She does wear skirts. ;-) No, not highly I suspect.

[vilakins.livejournal.com]

Well, I just only joking, but I suppose it's a tad eclectic to wear necklaces and earrings with what are often men's clothes or could pass as such. :-P

[vilakins.livejournal.com]

Most baby animals are cute (even ones that grow into huge and dangerous polar bears) but there are exceptions (rats spring to mind, all naked and pink). Baby humans though? Demanding and either boring or annoying, and loud. I have no idea how our species evolved this far with young that kick up a racket that would attract predators over a 5km radius. :-P

[jaxomsride.livejournal.com]

Have you ever seen a predators reaction to a child's scream?
It's not always "Oh good lunch" It's "Aaaaaah my bleeding ears. That's why they are always so high pitched, it's not an attractant it's a deterrent!

[vilakins.livejournal.com]

Finally I might have an explanation!

[jaxomsride.livejournal.com]

Our daughter's cry was so high pitched Bats used to fall out the sky when she screamed!
