I cross dress in frilly outfits. Do I win the thread?

I'll start... I love romance movies, (especially sad ones), and watch Lucky Star...

EDIT: Just to be fair, if you're a women then post things you do that are portrayed as "Manly"...
Like...

I don't know...

...watch Monster Truck Rallies

...and NASCAR
The first thing that comes to mind is what I DON'T do, which is sports. I don't spectate, I don't participate. I have zero interest in sports of any kind.

Unfortunately, no you do not win this thread...

...but, for your hard work I award you a cookie

The most unmanly thing I do is women! :p

Nah I'd say it's some of the more cheesy Studio Ghibli films like Whisper of the Heart.

The extent of my interest in professional sports is only 'passing interest whenever local teams are doing well'. Also, I recognize that females have actual emotional depth, thoughts, and personalities.

Never liked sports, I'll point out football mainly as the starting point, I was esstenially forced to go to these when I was younger because my family could go for free because my grandad was the groundsman for the local football grounds. I still have to hear about football some days because my dad's the head groundsman now. I'll play sports if I'd had to, just generally so I wasn't just standing around bored (which some of my friends used to do at school)

I was also taught at a young age (by one of the primary school teachers) that it was unmanly to cry. lead up to years of bottling my feelings and needing anger management. (I would say I'm still not over it, I still keep most of my feelings to myself)

I'm a lady, but my guy friends tell me that I'm basically a guy in every way except anatomically. I guess the girly things I like are baking, musical theatre, chick-lit and trashy TV. I really don't like shopping. I don't care one iota about fashion or trends. I love sports, video games, computers, etc. I also employ logic in my everyday life, which is apparently mind-blowing to most guys.

I love American Football, and I'm an Irish female, It's kinda unheard of here. I hate soccer though.

OP: I'm quite feminine, but I have to say I love demolision derby's. There fun, and i get a weird thrill from watching cars and caravans getting totally destroyed.

"grrr yeah distruction"

Whoops sorry for that outburst.

For some reason, this.


Actually, I like a lot of Lucky Star things, but not the series in general. Strange and very unmanly, I know.

I enjoy films based on Nicholas Sparks novels. I have (or rather, had until it was stolen) The Notebook on DVD, and I'm planning to see The Lucky One on release. I also enjoy most Hugh Grant films. Particularly Music And Lyrics...

I love cooking and I watch Gossip Girl a lot. And like many others I don't care for mainstream sports (Football, rugby, what have you). I have quite a bit of girly music on my iPod as well. Say what you like, but Kylie Minogue has some damn catchy songs.

HOLY NECROTHREAD!

The things I do are usually unisex, but I do occasionally listen to Norah Jones I guess? Does that count?

I watch My Little Pony Friendship is Magic and I shave my arm pits.

I also love the I Need a Hero song from Shrek 2.

EDIT: Oh wait, it said just ''unmanly''.

OK, I shave my pits and love the named song from Shrek 2.
