But the cape was the tricky part. I got pretty good at it. And it made me feel like a Ranger. *Grin* It was awesome.<br />Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00061036853525040573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-155324612378588838.post-56737459570529090442013-03-22T19:41:23.713-07:002013-03-22T19:41:23.713-07:00I am glad someone else has brought this up. I was ... I am glad someone else has brought this up. I was always told I was a tomboy so felt I HAD to be one and couldn't like dresses and painted nails and frills. It took me awhile to discover I could be both. I could wield a sword in a skirt or climb a tree with painted nails. I like being both. I love being a lady, and I love looking for adventures. <br /><br /> Listing to everyone go on and on about what girls should be now bugs me. Girls should be allowed to be who God made them to be.

I love, love, LOVED that bit you said about all girls being feminine by not necessarily "girly". :D *does a jig*<br /><br />It's true, though! I love playing with my hair, shoes are great, pretty dresses are stunning, but I feel like everyone seems to think that it's black and white. You're a tomboy or you're a "girly" girl. Nopes. There's a grey area in there for girls like us who want to try those survival skills, shoot arrows in the backyard, canoe, fish and then go home and try that new up-do. :)<br /><br />That was seriously a fabulous post. I liked it. A lot. :)Rose M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04282902530719795640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-155324612378588838.post-10422658224331831182013-03-21T10:32:23.669-07:002013-03-21T10:32:23.669-07:00I love daydreaming about being a mother, being wit...I love daydreaming about being a mother, being with someone I love every day, having a house or a flat decorated and furnished the way I want (books in EVERY room and lots of bright colours - I am no fan of this "understated chic" look) and generally planning the parts of my life I have control over. It makes me feel excited for what's to come, and happy that I get to be somebody I want to be. But I don't consider myself girly - I love my jeans and funny t-shirts, cracking jokes with boys, innuendo (nobody is too mature), camping, and being rather silly. And at the same time, I have some quite feminist principles. Basically, I can't really box myself, which I like. Oh, and tomboys rule.

I think that there is an unnatural devision in people's minds these days: you are either a girly-girly princess, or your tough as nails, anything guys can do, I can do better. In actuality I think being a feminine tomboy makes for a good, strong woman in the long run. Look at Joan of Arc, or Eowyn, or Juliet in Psych.

You're not "that girl" (in awkward, let's-accept-them-anyway-it's-their-life whispers) who has come out of the closet. You are a nice, sweet, normal girl with a streak of wild in you. And that's fine. In fact, it's fantastic. :)<br /><br />Oh my gosh, LOVE shoes! When did that happen?!<br /><br />Love your houses.
