I'm the Progressive Girl
|
I took it out of curiosity and I'm the Progressive Girl:D
|
I'm a hybrid of ATHLETIC GIRL & PARTY GIRL--no surprise there--I think that is how everyone who knows me would describe me.
She Might Be an Athletic Girl if: She drives: Rollerblades, a Trek mountain bike, or a Jeep Wrangler. She can talk for more than 10 minutes about: resistance training. She begins her sentences with: "My Pilates teacher says..." She'd never, ever: watch an all-day TV marathon. She owns any of the following: a treadmill, jogging hand weights, high-protein shakes or vitamin supplements like creatine, a "Frequent Lifter" card at her gym, a water bottle signed by Mia Hamm. She Might Be a Party Girl if: She drives: a convertible or other sports car, or she rides on a "party bus" (you know, the ones that take you from bar to bar). Also: cabs and limousines. She can talk for more than ten minutes about: the hottest bars, restaurants, and clubs -- in short, "the scene." She begins her sentences with: "Make it a double." She'd never: take up knitting. She owns any of the following: cell phone, PDA or Filofax (to manage all her contacts), a sleeping mask and earplugs (since she often doesn't come home until the wee hours), travel-size toothbrushes and very dark sunglasses (for when she doesn't come home at all). |

I'm a Progressive Girl/Party Girl hybrid:
The Progressive Girl: Moderation in all things, excess in nothing. -- Epicurus Imagine that the Girl Next Door moved to the big city. Think of Meg Ryan in When Harry Met Sally. She's America's sweetheart with an urban sensibility. She's a post-Christian spiritualist, a pre-Monica Clintonite, and a dues-paying member of at least one social-change organization like NOW, Planned Parenthood, or the Sierra Club. You won't find her at an Earth First or PETA meeting, though. Those are the Granola Girl's stomping grounds. Progressive Girls want the world to be a better place, but they live out their politics in a moderate, left-of-center way. If you are going to date a Progressive Girl, the one sin you can commit is to be a chameleon. Molding your opinions to fit hers will lose her respect. One very positive thing you can do is offer her new experiences -- the Progressive Girl is fearless about trying new things. Whether it's pluralism, skydiving, Asian peanut sauce, or this book, the Progressive Girl is always looking for new ideas. She Might Be a Progressive Girl if: She drives: a small SUV but really wishes it got better mileage; once she can get a good hybrid, she will. She can talk for more than ten minutes about: just about anything. She begins her sentences with: "Susan Sarandon says..." She'd never: pass up the chance for a new experience. She owns any of the following: a water filter, a tabletop fountain, an acre of rain forest, a mutt from the pound. The Party Girl: I like to have a martini, two at the very most -- after three I'm under the table; after four, I'm under the host. -- Dorothy Parker Audrey Hepburn's character Holly Golightly in Breakfast at Tiffany's is the quintessential Party Girl. Truman Capote named her for a woman who creates a holiday of life, and who takes it lightly. That classic scene of her standing in front of Tiffany's eating her breakfast roll and sipping coffee after being out on the town all night, her fridge with nothing in it, those wild cocktail parties. All very Party Girl. New York City is also very Party Girl. As are LA, Miami Beach, London, Amsterdam, and of course, Vegas, baby, Vegas. Party Girls hate rural areas, because their worst nightmare is to be somewhere where there's nothing going on. The Party Girl is an extrovert, and she's usually very popular. If you're the kind of guy who likes to spend his Saturday nights watching DVDs or playing Scrabble, the Party Girl may be an unwise choice. She likes to have F-U-N. If you want to keep up with this girl, you will need to know how to make a killer margarita, how to cure a hangover, and how to find the energy not to pull a wet-blanket, negatron move like falling asleep by the fifth club of the evening. (The answer to that last one is to have another vodka and Red Bull.)

I'm a Progressive Girl/ Uptown Girl hybrid... nice little mixture I suppose, even though I'm pretty much the opposite of the Progressive girl! (no NOW, Clinton, etc. for me!)

:)
Progressive gal.

Glad to see I'm not the only one who's a hybrid.
