Male interests vs female interests

Post Reply New Topic

I'm female, and my interests and hobbies include:

Drawing Cartoons - it's more than just an interest, it's a natural talent I've always seemed to have.
Nintendo games
The Sims games
Customizing dolls
Crafting handmade dolls (most are based on the cartoon characters I made up)
Cats
Reading and learning
Dr. Seuss books
Toy collecting
Classic cartoons, especially Looney Tunes and Disney
Newspaper comics
Shopping at stores that have things that appeal to my interests (not many here, so going to a bigger city like Halifax once or twice a year is a real treat)
Youtube videos that reflect my special interests like video game longplays or doll crafting.
Cooking
Creatures of fantasy like fairies or classic monsters.

These are my interests, too. I'd also add sic-fi/fantasy movies and classical music. I like a lot of rock and jazz, but I've been really interested in classical over the past 7 years.

I'm female. My most intensive interests were so far:

Some books (Harry Potter saga, Drizzt Do'Urden saga, Twilight saga)
Some computer games (Perfect World, The Sims 3)
Astronomy
Dreams
Thunderstorms
Asperger
Anime

Awesome reminder Kiriae! I love, Love, LOve LOVe, LOVE! Harry Potter!

As a human male I enjoy killing stuff. Thus, I use video games as replacement for killing stuff.

Oh, two I forgot to mention:
-Anatomy/physiology
-subcultures, in general

I am female, and I intensely pursue my interest of brain science.

Oh and I forgot...I have gotten somewhat into video games I have a Ps3 which I have a few entertaining games for, and then I like to play League of Legends on my computer, as its quite fun. I do not really like turned based combat in games because I get bored of it too quick or first person games as the unsteady camera and limited vision range makes me nauseous.

I'll probably just copy/paste this to my own "interests" thread I started the other day but have not returned to yet...


*Reading about most of the interests listed below

*Writing about most of the interests listed below, especially fantasy/mythology or crime-related things with a psychological angle

*Filling out character profiles and taking personality tests from the viewpoint of my characters (one character kept testing as two different personality types, apparently my unconscious realized he has DID before my conscious mind did!)

*Ancient Egyptian mythology

*Ojibwa/Northeast American Indian mythology and traditional culture

*Mackinac Island

*Early Michigan/Great Lakes area history and geology (I could talk about breccia and Glacial Lake Algonquin for ages ;_; )

*Jungian thought and symbolism

*Dreams, dream journaling, and dream interpretation

*GLBT rights and fiction, especially M/M fiction (I have almost zero interest in F/F fiction )

*HP Lovecraft/Lovecraftian fiction

*Horror writing, especially things like creepypastas and "found" writings

*Book collecting (I also love looking at other people's bookshelves)

*Feeding birds (and whatever other wild animals happen by)

*Abnormal psychology (the dissociative disorders in particular fascinate me)

*Anthro ("furry") writing and artwork (not the really weird stuff, though)

*True crime and police procedurals, especially if related to cults/the occult/ritual crime

*Law & Order (all of 'em)

*Supernatural/paranormal phenomena (I adore MIBs)

*Nature photography, especially woods/forests/trees

*Trailer music (mental soundtracks)

*Hidden object and match-3 computer games

*Daydreaming/mental roleplaying/"make believe"

Etc.

I also occasionally cycle through passing interests sometimes related to my childhood, for example, trying to take up artwork again, or little plastic toy animal figurines. In addition there are interests I would like to pursue (e. g., exploring abandoned buildings) but have no opportunity to do so.

I am female.

The 90s are now nostalgic? Wow do I feel old!

I'm female and my interest are:

Playing all sorts of video games. My favorite consoles are 3ds, Ps2, Ps3 and Ps4.
Anime (Fruits Basket, One Piece, The Devil is a Part-Timer, Princess Jellyfish, Hetalia, Spice and Wolf and Black Butler.)
Manga (High School of the Dead, Sailor Moon, Attack On Titan, Blue exorcist. Fairy Tail, Itazura Na Kiss and Death Jam)
Music like Hollywood Undead, Blood on the Dance Floor, The Birthday Massacre and my guilty pleasure...Vocaloid. There's more than that. I also like AFI and most of that 2000s "emo kid" music as some call it.
I love making playlists and mixed CDs.
I like clothes shopping
Makeup
Cats
Cartoons

I'm more well-rounded than I thought.

Art/Fashion, Current Events, Sociology, Makeup... female 21

I also love writing. Forgot to mention that.

I'm female and my main special interest is turtles, but I’m also so into Pokemon that I think it counts as a special interest.


My regular interests are (and have been since my childhood):
Reading
Movies and series I like
Some comics and manga
Horror, creepypasta, urban legends
Fantasy
Science fiction, dystopian
Thrillers
Boats, planes, trains, some cars
Animals and paleontology
Animal rights and welfare, environment
Extreme weather
Mysteries, unexplained stuff, conspiracy theories
Some interest in psychology and diseases
History and archaeology. Modern history. Really enjoy hearing about what life was like in the decades of the last century that I didn’t experience.
Nostalgia
Board, dice, card and video games
I used to love writing, but haven’t written much in over a decade
Daydreaming
What-if scenarios, alternate histories, parallel dimensions
Cryptozoology
Abandoned buildings, ghost towns, urban exploring photos and videos

I might have forgotten something.

It's solely dependent on my mood.

When I am extremely low, downbeat and depressed (as I currently am) all I ever do is follow my football team's latest transfer activities and partake in online cricket fantasy leagues, whilst listening to either Bowie or grunge music. Yet, bizarrely, I do not derive any pleasure from doing as such. It's almost as if my mind completely switches off during this juncture of impassivity, and at worst/best, has led me to self-mutilating. Without wanting to be hyperbolic, I am somewhat amazed that I still remain.

Conversely, when I am more upbeat and happier in myself, I like to read fiction; practice tongue-twisters to improve my communication skills; write down complicated words to broaden my vocabulary; repeatedly watch Twin Peaks and jog to control my body weight.
