    I think maybe what she was getting at is that everything is a matter of everyone's opinion... it's all very subjective. one person's "prissy" is another's ... ... hmm. What *is* the opposite of prissy? None of the words I can think of would probably be favorable.

    Some people shave off all their body hair and call it good, some leave it all there and call it furry, and the rest of us find a happy medium (legs or knee-down depending, then pits and *coughmumble*) or waxing or whatever... I can generally get away with just knees-down shaving for the most part. My thighs are unfurry, and what grows is soft and blonde and inoffensive

    Some of us are content with cargos w/ chamois, black socks, boots/hiking shoes, baggy dri-fit shirts, and some want to look as adorably feminine as we can.

    I don't mind "prissy" unless I have to hear a fellow rider complain about getting dirty or muddy or chipping their nail polish/breaking a nail. Style should never have to significantly interfere with your lifestyle or hobbies, imo. Just... don't expect to see me in an adorable pink jersey or whatnot. Yes, it might happen, but don't *expect* it.

    Yes, Kit that would make my eyes roll too. I find a bunch of makeup to be rather silly as well, if you're really planning on sweating that makeup is just going to run down your face..

    and of course not, i'd NEVER expect to see YOU in Pink unless you HAD to do it because of a bet or a dare.

    Thanks. Some of my sisters are convinced I have this deep-seated fetish for pink and pink accessories.

    oh, if only I could link right *here* to Aerosmith's "Pink".

    I think they're pulling your leg. you are definitely not in the "pink" category at least in my mind.

    but on the other hand, Bluetree, I can see doing pink for fun.

    The only real contribution I have here is that Cali can't talk about snotrockets while living in socal. If it were prohibited, I couldn't ride in winter because I would have to stop every 5 feet to blow my nose. I am a prodigious mucous factory.

    I shave. But Lise doesn't. Discussed that recently.
