In my younger days I used to run cross country & play soccer. I wasn't the type to watch football every Sunday or any other sports to be honest. In that respect I wouldn't want to be with someone who wants to veg out in front of the TV every Sunday. I'd rather be taking a 10 mile hike some where & hopefully with whoever I'm dating. Screaming at the Tv is not my idea of fun.

Well by your definition I am not a jockette. And I wouldn't be interested in a male with those characteristics that you defined either.

I'm married to someone who is a former college athlete and who is as passionate about sports as I am. Too bad we can't get along....

Ew, no. Women are supposed to be feminine. We have too many feminists in America who are already trying too hard to be men.

She's not a "jockette". She's a race car driver!

Chicks who hang out with guys and have like waaaaay more guy friends and they try to be "one of the guys" have always been a turnoff to me. They are loser like chicks who just seem to try too hard. Never liked them.

I have respect for women who are athletic themeles and know what they are talking about. I also have respect for women who root for their college alma mater or pro team from the city they are from, but the chicks who just try too hard to be, again, "one of the guys" makes me want to just treat them like "one of the guys" and take out in the alley for a beat down. HATE those types. Always have waaaaay more guy friends than female friends and claim that "oh I just get along better with guys" and IM like no you dont.
Exactly!

Thats a major issue I had with the dating scene in Chicago. Midwest girls can be cute and very feminine absolutely. Especially in college!

But afterwards, the young professional oriented neighborhoods where there are single women are so sports-oriented that the women end up conforming to the beer and sports culture, although they are totally feminine.

In greater LA, the vibe is one where women are totally allowed to be the utmost feminine.
