I'm a lot girlier than many of my female friends - some of them see no point in spending time with makeup, hairdressing, perfume or jewellery, and I love these things.
But I also don't see eye-to-eye with many of them in conversations, which tend to be about their children and families. Most of the people who I consider interesting and fun friends are male.
I do have a blowdryer. It was just a cheapie, but it's awesome. It hangs on a hook by my dressing table and is always there for me! :o)
I love all those things too. I have the time to make sure I look good so I take it. You never know when you're going to run into someone. Only difference is that I have a professional hairdryer. I kept burning out the cheap ones (I have long, thick hair).
My personality is what attracts me more to men and their conversations. I would love to find more strong, opinionated women that I could have a variety of intellectual conversations with, like philosophy, politics and religion. But I never have. My interactions with my female friends tend to revolve around relationships, family, careers, wine, food and fashion. Not that I don't like these conversations, I just sometimes want more.
Don't worry
Grey, I wear just a touch of perfume. I don't think people should be able to smell me unless they hug me! I'm sensitive to a lot of different perfumes so I'm very careful there.
I hate, HATE, going to movies and someone around me smells so strong that I have to move. I have had to do that numerous times. And I've gotten off elevators for the same reason. That layering of scents technique that perfume makers try to push is really over the top.
