What's the most 'guy' thing you've done while en femme?

[Krististeph]

This is an idea that popped up while i was reading Karren's response to Mrs Roads (see below), Karren, my engineering muse- enlightens us that regular spray paint is great for pre-coloring stick on nails

She of course is right, and while i'm asking this question, I know Karren is going to trump me on this --


What is the most guy-like thing you've done that is specifically feminine related- Like Karren's 'engineering solution' (I so get this...) I've done pipe sweating to replace a water heater while dressed, but that is not really focused on something feminine. Karren painted nail tips- I guess i could say i semi-overhauled my old sewing machine, but even that is not as feminine directed.


Using a 12volt DC rotary (Harbor freight) with a 3-12v switchable power supply (wal mart) as a low-torque or low power dremel to sand down stick on nails might come close.

Anyone else?

Mrs Roads:
Nail Polish and fake finger nails


Hi gals, just wondering if any one of you can direct me to a decent site that sells nail polish and attachable/detachable finger nails? I've found pretty much all of my female/womenly dressing and cosmetic needs online (particular stores that cater to XD), but haven't found one that sells NP and finger nails.

I haven't got the nerve to walk into an actual store and buy these items yet, may be some day, but right now any help with an online purchase would be greatly appreciated!


Karren Hutton:
Just about everywhere carried First Kiss stick on nails. Get the ones that end in 02... They have larger thumb nails. If you have a Walmart with self checkouts just buy them there. As far as nail polish. I use enamel spray paint and paint the whole box, in their trays. Great finish and looks amazing. Engineer thing...

OK, don't laugh. It was lining a bra with Saran wrap and then filling up the cups with silicone to make breast forms. The acetic acid from the drying silicone made the shop smell like a pickle factory for days. The forms? Let's just say they were firm. :)

Had to repair my bug's valve cover that was leaking. This was following a stint at rocky horror. I was wearing a black spandex minidress, hose and heels, and my blonde wig. Surprisingly I did little damage to the outfit, was able to wash the oil out, and also somehow managed to not flash anyone. LOL

[RuthieER]

I fixed the chain on my bicycle while wearing my best slip.

You mean other than scratching or adjusting myself? :)

I would say changing the tire on a woman's car by the side of the road. Her only concern was how I was dressed - not that I was dressed as a woman, but fear that I might "ruin that pretty outfit."

Not that this is just a guy thing but I did ride my harley while totally enfem.

[Jennifer in CO]

put the engine back in a car I was working on...wearing black Capri's black halter top with black cover shirt and 3" heeled demi-boots - ok I cheated as I was living full time at the time so to say I was a guy doing guy things while dressed is a stretch...

What is a "guy" thing? Unless it involves a certain piece of anatomy, I cannot even think what a guy could do that a girl cannot. Here is that old reverse stereotype again.

Totally agree! Since I'm a genetic guy who is dresses 24/7 (except showering), I do everything.

[KellyJameson]

I am not able to think of anything that would be specific to my biological sex but I have dressed inappropriately on occasion in my teens and early twenties such as snow skiing in a mini skirt and tights on Mt Baldy for spring skiing. With a scarf, cap and goggles no one knows what sex you are.

[CarlaWestin]

A guy thing I guess is something that a woman would not normally or traditionally do. So that being said, I've done every (guy) thing from taking out the trash to completely renovating an entire house. All in varying stages of CD. And when I use to pee standing up I would put the seat down.

[suzy1]

Race in my Formula One game on my P.C.

And before you say women race cars too, not in Formula One!

I tried that sort of- used wooden forms, then put the dried shell on the lather and ground off the irregular bumps... yes, too firm, too conical- i never bothered to fill them in. Little too much technology... I forgot about that! GE silicone II... :+)

well, I wrote my name in the snow while peeing, i suppose a girl could do that if she's really fast.

The first time I went out in public, I was in my early 20s's. I was wearing a dress and heals, and I wanted to make contact with someone. I went to Meijer, used the lady's room and shopped in the Women's department. I bought something just to go through the check out lane. After I left Meijer, I went to McDonalds. I went inside to order, but took my food out to the car to eat. While walking to my car, I discovered that the tailpipe on my car had fallen off, and would drag all the way home. There I was, standing in heals and dress wondering what to do. I could not call anyone for help as I did not want anyone I know to see me in a dress. I was thinking if I put down a peice of cardboard, get under the car and keep my dress as clean as possible, but how could I do it without my dress riding up where I didn't want it to. Just then a young man came out from McDonalds, climber under the car and looked. He then went back into the restaurant and brought back out a metal coat hanger, and tied it up. He said "have someone check it when I get home." I thanked him and I was ready to go home. That was a great expirence, and I learned what a Woman would do. Let a man do it.

Well that explains why women's houses are full of trash until a nice strong man comes along....I hope you are kidding. And trust me I know a lot of women who can renovate a house far better than the guy I hired.

Time for me to quit reading all the silly misogynistic and stereotypic posts on these boards. How people who WANT to be accepted can be so narrow minded I have no clue




And before you say women race cars too, not in Formula One!



Yet. Is there something in those cars that require an extra appendage? (And Suzy I KNOW you are kidding)


well, I wrote my name in the snow while peeing, i suppose a girl could do that if she's really fast.
Or had a really short name.....;)

In December one year, I went to a wedding dressed in my finest with hose and strappy heels. I didn't bother with boots because it was simply a question of getting in and out of the car. When we left the reception there had been a surprise accumulation of snow, about 4 inches, and it was still snowing furiously. I scraped my car off, and my son and I followed another guest back to our hotel. On the way we saw a car that had skidded and was stranded in a depression by the side of the road. The other guest stopped to help them push the car back out on the road. They were having a hard time, so my son and I both helped rock the car and give it a good push. It took about 10 minutes.

Surprisingly, I didn't ruin my shoes! :)


Edit
Oops, Lori I've just read your posts. I guess I've been hanging out here too long and take it for granted that in this forum certain things are considered "guy" vs. "girl" things to do. :p

[suchacutie]

Tina doesn't do "guy" things, whatever they are! Ok...I will admit that she once borrowed her male side's jeans. Of course, they were woman's jeans!!!

[Miranda-E]

flying internationally, swapping the name on the gun club membership, court custody battle for my stepson and other big things weren't as bad as that 1st trip through the doors at NAPA.
For some reason the auto parts store scared the crap out of me. Now its nothing but just after going 24/7 I had just lost the option of pretending I was male for that one trip.

[KarenCDFL]

One evening I was all dolled and made up to the Ultra 999's for a girl's night with my wife when our A/C unit started to leak.

Besides the Air Handler drain being blocked, the coils were all iced up so here I am with my long pink glossy nails, full glamour makeup and hair that I spent almost two hours, taking the Air Handlers covers off with my portable drill, spraying hot water to break up the ice and blowing into a 1/2 inch PVC 90 degree elbow and blow tube I made that fits on the drain line to clear it.

ABout an hour later when everything was all said and done, the panels screwed back on and the A/C blowing cold air and not leaking, I took a look at the my 1/2" PVC blow tube and it had my Cover Girl Rose Quartz lipstick all over the end.

I took me over a half hour to stop cracking up about that!

And i did not even get a run in my stockings!

[JohnH]

Let's see - last summer I was replacing rotted wood fence posts while wearing a maxi-dress. The first step was to pry out the old stumps encased with concrete using a 6-foot long pry bar and a sledge hammer. Then I had to mix up the new concrete for each post using half of an 80 lb bag and water with a wheelbarrow, and set the new steel posts with the concrete. After the concrete cured I had to fasten the fence to the new steel posts and replace rotted fence planks. It felt really good to not have any constriction around the waist, and also since the dress was long, I was able to go "Commando".

Used the urinal in the men's room enfemme... That count?

Karren, I think you just came up with the only unambiguously male item in the thread ...

I hope you were wearing jeans. The picture I just got with a dress ain't pretty! For SOME reason I just don't think you were in jeans, though!

Lea

[Karren H]

Did you sit down or stand up ? :)

The thought of me setting on a urinal enfemme brought tears to my eyes.... For a number of reasons!

Long skirt and tights!! And somewhere I do have a photo! Lol.

[Alice Torn]

On one of my very first times out, was reluctantly asked by a man, with his kids, if i would give him a jump start. He told his kids not to look!! I was nervous of course, but did my duty, and got his battery going. And his car.

[janet p]

I know anyone would do this but I was visiting the boutique one RAINY day and the secound story roof was leaking and flooding the upstairs hallway which was leaking down to the bottom floor,maintanence came by and put barrels under the leaks and they overflowed leaving about an inch or more of water on the upper floor, another person and I went up to empty the buckets, no big deal right but in 3" heels(open toe) and stockings cold water over toes,had to reglue inner sole to shoe after they dryed.

[Lynn Marie]

I was dressed during the day and hanging out around the house. So I sat down at my reloading bench and reloaded 50 rounds of 9mm. I didn't like it. Have never done it again en femme. It's fine in drab, just not while dressed. It doesn't fit me then.

[Courtney_Glenn]

I'm a pro wrestler, And I once we did a comedy bit where it was the birthday celebration for one of the top villains, and his birthday gift was a blind-folded lap-dance from my character. It was a swimdress. the crowd ate it up! I even wrestled my match like that because it got over big-time (Wrestling the match was the manly part...not the dancing, lol)

[SANDRA MICHELLE]

I once went into the mens room as a man and came out as Sandra, I'm with Karren on that one. I also once hooked up a car carrier for a Budget customer while fully enfemme. Had to help her tie down her car also, they were very pleased that I would help them and were concerned I would mess up my make-up or outfit.

[jillleanne]

Did you sit down or stand up ? :)

So, you sit in a urinal? Just how exactly do you do that and do the neighbors in the adjacent urinals notice anything odd abouit that? I would think the top of the urinal would be hard on the back of the neck.

Hmmmmmmm..........things that make you say..............hmmmmmmmm.

[suit]

like a lion ?
or a flamingo ? the backwards folding knee's...

[sonna]

used a zip tie to hold up my skirt. does that count?

[Diane Lynn]

Once when I was out dressed en-feme, I bought a pair of men's jeans for my male self. I have bought most of my woman clothing and accesories when out as a man. I buy what ever I need, the only problem was a woman at the make up counter at Macy's refused to help me. When I am dressed as a woman, I do other things beside visting dressing rooms.

[Chrissy.Sexton]

Changed oil in my truck - stockings and heels sticking out from under the engine!!

I was in the middle of a pink fog and forgot our wedding anniversary.

I was dressed while we were watching a new grandchild and I passed the messy baby to my wife for changing.

Out with some CD sisters and said "Hey! Watch this!" and then hurt myself doing something stupid with a power tool.


Actually, none of the above, but it could happen. ;-)

[michelleky53]

Went to some strip clubs enfemme. One refused me entry because of their dress code, said I had to have pants on, not a skirt. I was dressed better than the GG taking the cover charge. Another refused after I had been there a couple of times because I made their clients uneasy. The dancers loved me but the manager not so much. A third was no problem. All in Nashville, Tn.

[Stephanie47]

Reclining in my chair and watching a football game! :)

The most traditionally "male" (by societal norms) thing that I have done while fully dressed as a female, would be trying to push my car the last 30 yards to the gas pump after having run out. Didn't work in the heels.

It was one of my first times out fully dressed where I was planning to be places that I probably would be seen by others. The plan was to go get gas very late at night. I knew it was low, but thought I could make it to a 24 hour gas station. Not sure what the girl behind the counter thought of me when I came in and asked if they had a gas can I could borrow. She didn't laugh and helped me out, but I'm sure she knew the 6'3" girl in the grey mini skirt with purple tights and 3 inch heels was not quite what she seemed.

The extra in this is that the station I ran out of gas near was not the one I intended to go to. My sister worked at this one, so I was taking a chance by going in there dressed, but had no choice with no gas. Luckily, my sister was not working that night.

The most feminine thing I've done in male mode would be shopping for and trying on clothes for Tami.

[glynnis]

Went shooting a few times fully dressed once,girdle,stockings,panties,bra and a dress with full makeup.As I am dressed most of the time when just the wife and I are home I often sit at the reloading bench dressed.

[Richelle423]

When wearing jeans when dressed at home, I have at times peed while standing up.

[Eryn]

Anytime a male and female travel in a car together some unwritten law makes it the male's responsibility to do the driving.

No matter how pretty I am, my wife still refuses to take the wheel when we drive anywhere even though we usually take her car!

[Sarasometimes]

This is off topic but your answer reminded me of a funny thing I heard two GG volleybal players talking about. The tournament was at West Point Military Academy (originally GG's weren't welocmmed there). the two had returned from the ladies room and one said "Wow the female recruits here must be tough, there are urinals in the ladies room!"

As for my answer to this thread. I try to avoid "guy things" when dressed it ruins the mood. I feel like my worlds are colliding!

[Pinky188]

I was on my way home from Town Dance Boutique late one night, and of course Im wearing one of my most favorite gowns. (not cheap) Well its 3:00 A.M. and I see a car on the side of the road with steam bellowing from the hood. The owner, an old lady, standing behind the car. So I stopped to help. After two broken nails and a tare in my dress, I got her going again. I can't imagine what she was thinking!!!! Ha!!

[franlee]

I suppose it was feeding the horses in the rain. My shoes didn't fare very well behind that. It's a long way from the barn to the house and all kind of horsey land mines between them.

I don't know how much this counts as a 'guy' thing. A bit of background, first. I was working for the State of Florida as a legal agency's network admin. Since I was only the 'computer girl', that meant I would need to drive to the various other offices, and carry spare parts, inter-office mail, supplies and so forth. However, because I was a mere 'computer girl', I didn't rate an agency vehicle, so I drove my little blue Miata and turned in an expense sheet. The junior-boss rated a Lincoln Continental, the big boss rated a Porsche.

Now the junior-boss was a PHBitch. Said boss was not only a PHBitch, she was also a born-again religious fanatic, and did things HER way, and part of that was enforcing a strict dress code. Now, I can see conservative business wear for the agency's lawyers, but for secretaries and personnel like me? No, the men had to wear the classic three-piece suit with shiny shoes, the women wore a dress or skirted suit with pantyhose (In summer, in Florida?) and at least three inch heels. If your shoes weren't correct, you were to clock out, drive home, and change them, and she would measure the height of your heels at random intervals. I therefore have a lot of four, four-and-a-half, and five inch heel shoes.

One day I suddenly need to drive to another office. I load up the Miata with an assortment of stuff: spare computers, CRT monitors, etc. It's packed pretty full, I can barely squeeze in my laptop, case, purse and duffel bag. I had an aerobics class scheduled after work, which I MAY make if I'm lucky, which explains the duffel bag with my gym clothing. I get in and start off, its a beautiful day, the sun is shining, I've got the tunes cranked, the top down, and my hair blowing in the breeze. It's great to be young, alive and female!

About twenty minutes into the ninety minute trip, the sky opens up, pouring rain. I'm instantly soaked to the skin, I can't see past the front of the hood, and then *BANG* a tire blows out. I manage to get under an overpass, start unpacking the trunk with computers and whatnot sitting on the gravel, and manage to get to the spare tire and the jack. The tire is changed, ruining my skirted suit (no man to rescue this damsel-in-distress, unfortunately), the car is repacked, and I make my slow, sodden way to the remote office.

I get there and check in, get the stuff upstairs, and then am able to dry off, get a cup of coffee to warm up and change into the only clean, dry clothes I have: my workout clothing. This is a change of underwear, a pair of black tights, a Kelly green long sleeve leotard, and black high-top Converse sneakers. I'm starting to work down my to-do list when PH Bitch comes out of her meeting (yes, she drove past me while I was broken down), and starts to ream me out IN PUBLIC and in front of senior management for not only being LATE, but not wearing the correct clothing.

I blow a fuse, and start to ream her out as well (which shocked her that anyone would DARE to contradict HER), saying that she would not approve replacement clothing which was ruined on the job, nor would she approve my wearing a jumpsuit. (Part of my 'other duties as assigned' was the moving, assembly and dismantling of modular furniture and partitions.) I stalk over to my faithful duffel bag and pull out the soaking wet, ruined skirted suit she had seen me wearing that morning. I then told her that since the only other clothing I had wasn't suitable for her, I would therefore wear what GOD HIMSELF had given me, and started to pull off my leotard. I get that off, I'm standing there in my Converse high-top sneakers, black tights, and my black bra, and start to reach behind to undo it. One of the senior (female) partners puts an hand on my shoulder and stops me, and they go back into an impromptu meeting. I pull my leotard back on, fix my hair, and start work again. Later, a memo comes out with changes for the dress code, allowing damaged clothing to be expensed (within a certain price range).

I use the urinal in the men's room standing up while wearing a denim skirt frequently when I wear skirts. It's much more convenient than pants - instead of fumbling with a zipper with pants, I simply lift the hem of my skirt and pee!

[darci.c]

um, a friend of mine was being harassed by this uber-douchebag (i had seen him around before... he just doesn't let up) and i decided to step in.

i got the predictable remarks - being a girly-man and all that. but i seriously was only trying to eye him down and get him to just go away.

anyway, i got shoved.

next thing i knew i ELBOWED (not sure why it was an elbow and not a fist - it just happened)... anyway i elbowed this guy in the face and he was knocked completely out for a good 20 seconds.

security escorted him out of the bar (glad i'm friends with security)

was that a guy thing to do?

[ArleneRaquel]

I don't recall ever doing anything manly :heehee: when I've been dressed enfemme.

Well, I have done something that "involves a certain piece of anatomy" while en femme. But that's probably too much information.

:o :eek: :D

Leyna,
You should read post #23 by that Hussy KH.
Maybe that is more info than you want to give.
My claim to fame, I did "it" on the side of the road wearing jeans...
They tell me that does not count.
If you use your imagination "it" can be substituted in a lot of ways.
Try "it" sometime.
