Published in Social Definitions 1 min read

A "girly girl" is typically defined as someone, usually a woman or girl, who enjoys and identifies with traditionally feminine aesthetics and activities.

Here's a breakdown:

  • Aesthetics:

    • Makeup (e.g., lipstick, eyeshadow, blush)
    • Heels and stylish clothing (e.g., dresses, skirts, fashionable tops)
    • Perfume
    • A generally polished and feminine appearance
  • Hobbies and Interests:

    • Activities often associated with femininity.
    • Examples include: the performing arts (dance, theater), fashion, beauty, shopping, and decorating.
    • Generally excludes hobbies often considered "traditionally masculine" like team sports or hunting (though this isn't a hard and fast rule).

Essentially, the "girly girl" persona emphasizes and enjoys expressing femininity through appearance, interests, and activities. It's important to remember that these are societal constructs and preferences vary widely.
