Guess I am a a turn off. LOL. My dad taught me how to use tools and fix things. Good thing too, my ex-husband was clueless (still is) but while married it saved us a lot of money that I could fix things around the house... and it saves me a lot of money for not having to call a repair man for every little thing. My only hang up, I am kind of fearful of fixing electrical things. I'll change out an electrical outlet or light switch, but that's about it (and even then I turn off the main breaker, lol).
That's the same for me. I'm thinking I'm shutting off the main breaker too. My dad taught me how to work on cars and took me on construction jobs. As a result, I'm really good with fixing/remodeling just about anything. My husband always comes to me for my opinion on all things construction (except he's better with electrical than I am - I suck at it) and we've saved 10's of thousands of dollars in tile jobs, flooring, painting, plaster, drywall, plumbing, concrete, etc. In my 20's I worked as an office manager for a safety and inspecting company for government construction sites (insuring blue prints and CA Universal Building Codes were followed). So I know my stuff.
I guess to some people being proficient with a male trade is not considered "ultra feminine" regardless of what we look like. Considering that if someone were to look at me in my dress up moments (with my long hair, mani/pedi, make up, rack, dress, etc.) they might consider me "ultra feminine." But slap a tool belt on me and all bets are off. LOL! Fine by me.

Nah, no serious tradesman wears a tool belt. I would probably think: "Poor thing, playing handymen".
I don't understand why a woman who is feminine is expensive and high maintenance. People tend to assume I'm high maintenance because I like to dress well but if anyone asked my husband, he'd say I'm a cheapo always going to the clearance rack, lol. I do like to dress nice but I am not a spendthrift, nor do I think high maintenance is a nice trait to have. I like being a girly-girl and yes, I know the difference between a 0000, 000, 00, 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4 Phillips.
didn't read this entire thread, but I love feminine women. Especially those that can cook, give a great massage, and respect my independence as well. In return, I do a lot for that type of woman.
Every woman that I've gotten to know beyond the surface level is ultra-feminine. The ability to see that and appreciate it depends on the type of man your are.
I once dated a woman who was a world-class high hurdler. Physically, she was extremely powerful and athletic and most guys were intimated by her. As I sat across the table from her while we ate lunch, I noticed that she had beautiful eyes and long eyelashes. Her skin was incredibly smooth. I had her grab my hand and her skin and hands were soft too. She had a soft touch, a feminine touch. Her lips were beautiful. After we ate, I stood up and grabbed her coat so I could help her get into it. Her curves were incredibly feminine. Ultra-feminine? You bet. Her voice was soft in a feminine way as she thanked me for being so courteous. Honored to be with this feminine beauty, I held the door for her as she got into my car. We drove to my apartment and got more comfortable.She took off her sweater, revealing beautifully-toned arms, and more soft skin. Soft music, more wine, more conversation. I was interested in her. We kissed and she was one of the best deep French kissers. Nothing but ultra-femininity there. We stayed up most of the night as I submerged myself in the femininity of this powerful woman in all her naked glory. Just incredible.
All women are feminine and beautiful. Learn to appreciate the various forms this comes in.
That's total Bull Sh*T. All woman are not feminine and all women are definitely not beautiful. Just because a woman has a nice body doesn't mean she's feminine, do you even know what the word means?
I think ultra feminine would be a slight turn off (like "I broke a nail" types of comments on a regular basis). However, the ideal woman for me would be motherly (prone to want to hug and sound very positive/caring), yet not over the top to where it seems fake.

You want to be mothered by your girlfriend? Uh, that's a problem.

I sometimes jokingly say "I broke a nail" and then laugh.
