You’re the type that likes to walk around at events so that everyone can see you. You’re usually young, pretty, and provocatively dressed. You wear the right makeup and hairstyle, which only make you look hotter. Some of you smile easily, some of you carry yourself like a snob. Sometimes you walk in a group of Princesses.
Many times you have “boyfriends” with you, but I suspect that, many times, that’s just for show. I suspect that you keep several “boyfriends” or, at least, potential ones. I suspect that you are always being asked out on weekends. I suspect that guys hit on you all the time.
How did you become a Princess? Was it something like out of “Mean Girls”? What is the typical weekly schedule of a Princess? Do you consider yourself a Princess, or do you have another name for it? Do other women hate you?
Do you pursue someone attractive or just let men pursue you? How do you filter out who you’re not interested in? What types of guys, quirks, personalities, appearances, possessions are you attracted to?
Honestly, do you want “bad boys”? Nice guys? How could a dork have a chance to get physical with you? What would he have to do or say or change about his appearance?
What are your favorite websites? Your favorite things to do? Your favorite places to go? Your favorite things to do at home?
How could a guy become a “Prince”, turn the tables, and get “Princesses” or women in general to pursue him, and not the other way around?
I thought I was a princess, in my cashmere twinsets and pearl jewelry. You mean the Librarian Look isn’t hot? I wish someone had told me that a decade ago…
‘Princesses’ are the real world equivalent of MB Trolls. They frive on attention, but are completely lacking in content. Sexy Librarians (work OK) are much better.
I have been told (often) that I am a “princess.” I agree with some of your points and disagree with others.
I’m 21, I personally don’t think I’m very pretty and I am never what I would describe as “provocatively” dressed. My outfits and accessories always get the attention of all the women in the room, never the men. IMO, men don’t care much for women’s fashion other than “I can see boobies” or “I can see your thong.” I always aim to be the best dressed woman at the party, never the least dressed. The right makeup and the right hairstyle are very important to me, and I spend a lot of time on them. Again, that’s something that men tend not to appreciate, but it always gets a lot of attention from women. The same goes for accessories (jewellery, shoes, handbag).
I have a boyfriend; we’ve been together for a while. Occasionally, I am out with other guys, but that’s because I am friends with them and not for show. I am never being asked out on weekends, and I have never been hit on. One person asked me out four years ago and it stuck.
I don’t know how it happened, I just became interested in fashion and follow it carefully. I haven’t seen Mean Girls, but it was nothing like that. I really hope that I am not mean. I went to an all-female high school, and it was very important to look “right.” I am a student, so my typical weekly schedule is pretty hectic and not very different from anyone else’s. I don’t consider myself a princess, or go by any other label.
On the contrary; I get along much better with women than I do with men. All of this dressing up to look hot is dressing up for the other women that I will see when I’m out, not the men. As I’ve explained, I don’t believe that men care very much about women’s fashions. I’m out to impress the ladies, not the men, and that’s what happens.

I am shy and would never pursue anyone. praxim asked me out, and if he hadn’t I never would have had the courage to ask him. I think everyone’s idea of who they’re interested in is different, and they filter people out accordingly. I cannot be attracted to a possession, unless it’s something I would like to buy for myself. I can only write about what attracts me, not what attracts all girls around my age who dress like me.
I don’t like “bad boys.” I think praxim is a wonderfully nice guy and he is also a huge dork. I wouldn’t want him to change anything about his appearance at all. I did once express my distast for large white socks worn with short and sneakers, but that’s it.
These boards, e-bay, my friends’ webjournals, and online stores that I shop at.
I like to shop, read, sing and hang out with people. Lots of other stuff as well, but as you can see, it’s not very unique.

I like shopping and eating in restaurants downtown, my friends’ apartments, the beach, NYC…
I read, scrapbook, cook and lately I have gotten into decorating my house.
I suppose that by “prince,” you mean “well-dressed man,” and the best way to go about that is to study men’s fashion magazines and find things that fit with your style. Get a haircut that flatters you and maintain it (same goes for facial hair). I suppose that would be the male equivalent of a princess, but in general I don’t think most women care very much about what men are wearing or what their hair looks like.
