How Do You Sit And Walk Like A Girl?

[Guest Nikki A]

All I know is keep ur legs together when sitting in a skirt XD lol

yeah, I always watched how my mom and her friends/neighbors walked when I was a kid so I have always had a ladies walking and sitting posture and technique. Practice get it down piece of cake! Bit what type of cake? That is the question!

This post is soooo useful. It'd be great if someone could compile it all into one single stickied thread.

Therefore...

BUMP!

This is so frustrating almost as bad as being at school again actually. I watch to see how men and women move differently but I don't see it all. Walking, talking, holding, carrying, standing, sitting... I just don't see the difference. Even after being told the differences and looking for them... nothing. So even detailed instructions are difficult to follow.

How on Earth do I get the stupid out of my brain?

Tara Ann,

There is no stupid in your brain - the differences while subtle are slowly disappearing.

When women went to work by the thousands in World War II things began to change - only part of the differences in movement are physiological most are acquired over time.

As women began to wear pants may things changed - they were taught to catch objects in their laps by spreading their knees apart and letting it fall into the skirt, men were taught to pull their knees together to allow it to land in the lap and not going straight through to the floor - now it is pretty much the same.

Walking has been effected by the introduction of flats for all occasions, athletic shoes and flip flops - heels force a different sort of walk - try them.

You will see women crossing their legs with one ankle resting on the other knee - once only masculine and a lot of men crossing theirs at the knee and holding the lower legs close together - that would have gotten you beaten up when I was younger.

Things are changing and whether they want to admit it or not the gender lines are becoming blurred throughout society.

Love ya,

Sally

I am still struggling with getting in and out of a car gracefully. I don't think it can be done. I have learned to keep both of my legs together, sit, spin into the car, gather the skirt or dress so it doesnt get stuck in the door or worse out of the door on a rainy day or snowy slushy day! Icky! A wet skirt brushing against my legs.
