Is MLP FIM the only 'girly' thing you like?

[Jeric 46,851]

No. I'm a fan of Nicholas Sparks, and John Green's TFIOS.

[LunarWave 106]

What does define a "girly" thing anyway? 

Where's the line between them? 

 

And also why the   we need to divide stuff as "girly" and "not girly"? 

[Ziggy + Angel + Rain 11,302]

I don't wear it, but I often prefer women's jewelry.  If anything I'm jealous because, as a male, my ring choices generally fall into one of three categories: 1. skulls, 2. eagles, 3. rings with initials on them.  Not that I necessarily have anything against skulls or eagles or my initials, but c'mon!  I like jade, amber, peridot, pearl, and blue turquoise.  My feet have been known to cross dress lol; I like colorful socks.  Hello Kitty is undeniably adorable, and I used to own both a Hello Kitty watch and PEZ dispenser.  Though green is my favorite color, my second fave is pastel pink.  I own some (and would like to own more) Sailor Moon and Cardcaptor Sakura manga.

The Sailor Moon thing may not be the best example, however, since I have some boyish-type affection for the Sailor Scouts .

Where do smooth jazz and J-pop fall on the girly scale??!?  Kyary Pamyu Pamyu gets a wub face, too .

Personally, I think gender roles are nonsense.  No one should be able to tell you what you can and can't like.  Not saying you can't be a manly man or a girly girl, but you shouldn't be expected to be either.

Yeah, even as I was replying to the topic I was thinking more or less the same thing lol.  If I had to define "girly," it would be based almost entirely on my perception of what the consensus perception was of something.  So...  My perception of...  A  perception.

[powerpuff-tsubasa 448]

i used to love some of the girls' stuff when i was younger

• Madeline (anyone remember this show)?
• Cardcaptor Sakura
• Totally Spies
• Powerpuff Girls
• W.I.T.C.H.
• Hello Kitty

still do now ^.^

[Hocus Pocus 636]

Heck naw! I love dresses, and tea parties, and cute stuff, and princesses, and pretty much everything else except babies and kids...

 

Though I think I might be cheating since I'm a girl

[Cirrus. 1,089]

I've always liked The Powerpuff Girls, but never specifically considered it girly. I didn't think of it as any different than watching Dexter's Lab, or Spongebob.

 

I Only found MLP because Tara voiced Bubbles in a parody skit I found channel surfing :

I looked her up to see what she was doing these days... and here I am.

Yea it's the only girly thing I like

[Discordian 6,015]

I watch and read shoujo anime, I've played with Barbies and played Barbie video games, been known to enjoy touchy-feely movies like 13 Going On 30...

 

I'm not overly concerned with target audience or gender nuances in media.

[#1FluttershyFan 206]

I don't really know what qualifies as "girly" but I don't watch powerpuff girls or anything so I would have to say no. (This is subject to change.)

[MysticShine 529]

I like that other MLP show: My Little Pony Tales. It's not bad. But other than that, I can't say I watch anything "girly".

[[NULL] 906]

Until the day someone makes something "girly" that's respects it's audience, MLP is currently the only "girly" show I watch.

 

And no, The Powerpuff Girls was never intended to be a "little girls' show". That's a common misconception we have the marketing department to thank for.

When i was young loved The Powerpuff Girls (never cared about the fact it was a girly cartoon) on Cartoon Network and randomly, Saylor Moon...

[Dawning Demon 950]

I used to watch The Powerpuff Girls when I was younger.

[alpinefroggy 451]

Yeah the powerpuff girls as kid but right now its only mlp thats "girly" that I like.

[Alan Crytex 165]

"Girly" shows that I like are MLP (of course, DUH) and Powerpuff Girls!

I used to watch that show when I was kid for many FREAKING TIMES!!

 

Now, the show pretty much dead, MLP is now taking over and it's pretty AWESOME REPLACEMENT!

[Sceethe 704]

i like a lot of Disney Movies, but they are widely accepted as Gender-neutral nowadays, i think.

[CC_Maud_Pie 6,431]

Nope, I've watched many Disney princess movies, which in my opinion, are more girly than MLP. For shows, I watch some anime where girls play a big role in it, The Powerpuff Girls, and even Angelina Ballerina to name a few.

[VitalSpark 1,830]

I love many of the Disney princess films, including Frozen, Tangled, Brave, The Princess and the Frog, and Mulan. (I also quite like the Tinker Bell films, especially The Pirate Fairy and The Secret of the Wings.)

 

Oh, and quiche.

[ponylaces 1,870]

Not really.

 

The thing is, I don't even feel like I'm watching something "girly" when I watch MLP. I'm sure most of us thought the show would be stupid and stereotypically girly before we actually watched it, but it ended up being a cool show.

 

Anyway, I used to watch The Powerpuff Girls when I was younger (who hasn't?). I think MLP is pretty much the only "girly" thing I currently like.

[The Peculiar Derp 193]

I love a variety of shōjo manga. Does that count? 

Edited February 18, 2015 by HerpDerp88

[zombienixon 330]

I like Disney Princesses, the movies and the storybooks they make, and have a couple of the toys.  I watched Cardcaptors as a kid, and the noticably girlier Japanese dub later on and still liked it.  I like G3 MLP too, and love the toys.  I probably would like Disney Fairies, too, if I saw any of the movies.

[Tao 7,740]

I like unicorns

I like trashy romance novesl (50 shades of crap is a bloody no!)

I get awwww over pups/kittens

I like some shojo anime/manga

I like some romance if it adds to a story

i'm over all a tom boy!

[Lucky Star 972]

certainly not!

 

I like sailor moon, pretty cure, Desperate house wives, drop dead diva, ouran highschool host club....

I really like Kawaii fashion... I used to follow a blog on tumblr dedicated to being as cute as possible. xD

 

But I don't just like girly stuff.... I like plenty of stuff, that could be either for boys or girls.

 

but I normally stay away from gender boxs when I start liking something, if I like it, I like it.

 

gender norms are stupid.

[NuclearBurg (Dawn) 622]

Nope. Powerpuff girls. Loved that show when I was younger. Still do .

Although I don't watch it any more.

There may be more girly things I like but I can't really think right now.
