Lately, I've been dressing up for work. By dress up, I mean just that, wearing skirts and dresses. I find when I wear skirts and dresses I'm more feminine and more accepting of help from men. Things like holding the door for me when I don't ask, carrying something semi-heavy, driving. It's like something in my mind clicks on and I'm totally accepting of the fact that I'm a woman,gentle and feminine, and I should be treated as such. That's not to say that I don't feel that way when i wear slacks or jeans, but I do notice a difference with guys. If I'm wearing a cute top, heels and a pair of jeans, I've got to carry my own damn box. But the skirts and dresses seem to bring out the man in the opposite sex. I also notice that it doesn't bother me as much when a guy does something for me that I can do myself. My excuse is that I'm wearing a skirt, I'm not walking that far, lifting that heavy thing, or sitting on the floor. I don't feel like voicing my concern about it diminishes my capabilities in any way. Just a thought I had when I was wearing my cute skirt and cute heels, while I had guy after guy opening doors for me today. ;)

what is SGC?
so...you may be wondering what The Single Girls Club is, and that's what we're here to tell you. it's really not a club -- like you can't sign up or anything. but if you're a girl and you're cool, you're already a member by default. this blog was started by 2 friends who quickly realized they were dopplegangers (for many reasons to be disclosed later on). they would constantly talk, laugh and mostly, bitch, and decided to share it with other fascinating women (& men) out there.
the whole name sort of became a running joke among a group of friends who work together...smart, sexy, bad-ass women who have something to say. it's nothing too profound or life-changing, so don't get your hopes up. but it will be stuff you can (hopefully) relate to...things that we notice about guys, life, working, whatever floats our boat or pisses us off. and don't let the title of our blog mislead you - we're equal opportunity and don't hate on the girls who aren't single..who have been lucky enough to find someone fabulous. we think all of you are also The Shit.
if you have anything to add, say, scream, whatever, let us know. we only sorta know what we're doing and/or talking about...so hearing from you gives us much needed validation. xo D&N

Chivalry is not dead!
Oh, clothes totally make the "woman". It is a strange phenom but men enjoy when a woman "makes and effort" and they react accordingly. I don't see it as something we should over-react to but a pleasure we should take in knowing that we have that kind of power over them...a simple piece of cloth makes all the difference! ;)
