There is absolutely nothing in your pictures that indicates that your appearance is remotely unfeminine.

Wrong. My childhood friend, the ultimate tomboy, is married and still attracts men like no tomorrow.

I don't think any woman needs to change herself for anyone, just as a man shouldn't.

If someone cannot accept you as you are, they just should not even have your consideration.

You change because you want to change. Not because some people say you need eye make-up or whatever else. Be yourself.

No, you don't look bad at all.

I have a friend who always dresses in basketball shorts and t-shirts and has a boyfriend who adores her. She will dress up from time to time, but considers it a chore. There are guys who don't mind, I'm sure, you just have to find them and also take in to account the culture and gender expectations of the area you live in. Some places and people may have more traditional expectations of a woman.

He made a comment oabout me not having any nice jewelry. I said no. (moreso bc I can't afford it, not because I don't like it ). I haven't gotten comments on my appearance from men in the past about being a plain Jane or a tomboy. I honestly feel like men are trying to change me to someone really feminine and girly. Are there men out there that are attracted to women that are tshirt and jeans, sports loving and not girly?
Trust me there are many many like me who cannot be bothered by girly girls.

I can't take girly nonsense. It must be a tomboy or I walk.

Agreed. My tomboy friend was nowhere near girly, never wore any make-up, and only dressed in cute things when her mother nagged her. She had 2 boyfriends in HS, and I had none. And she didn't even seem to think about boys that often. She was never interested in talking about guys.

I have a friend who is a tomboy. She's my polar opposite almost lol.

She's cute, loves sports, video games, etc. Guys LOVE her. She's also a bit of a girly girl. She does dress up a lot. But still you have nothing to worry about.

My husband sees me putting on the dog a couple of times a year, usually for military balls, and it's fun to dress up when there's some sort of reason for a formal date. He busts out his dress uniform, I bust out the va-va-voom dresses.

Other than that? Jeans. They're what's for TabulaRasa.

I'm not especially tomboy-ish. I don't like 99% of sports, and then, only as a spectator, I have less than zero interest in video games...the only thing that could be considered vaguely tomboy-ish about me is that I enjoy being outdoors. But even then, I'm more likely to be lying on a beach blanket reading or planting stuff in the garden than I am rappelling or training for a marathon. I'm not ultra girly-girl, either. I'm just a comfortable, casual type. Girl next door (if you happen to live next door to an artsy bookworm) versus either vamp or one-of-the-guys.
