Now Viewing: tomboyTag type: General ボーイッシュ 男装 お転婆 おてんば A girl who looks or behaves like a boy. Girls who are tomboys tend to be very athletic and sporty. They almost always dress like boys and in anime frequently have short and/or spiky hair and can often be seen wearing tight cycling shorts. Examples would be Kagura_(azumanga_daioh)| (Azumanga_Daioh), Arisawa_Tatsuki (Bleach) and for a videogame example, Makoto_(street_fighter)| (Street_Fighter_III_(series)). Similar to the androgynous tag, but differs in that androgynous apply to both men and women, referring to possessing physical traits associated with both sexes (not usually in terms of genitals, but rather facial features and build). An androgynous person wouldn't necessarily be a tomboy at all (they may actually be male anyway) but a tomboy is somewhat androgynous. Note: Just having short_hair is not enough to count as a tomboy. The girl in question has to dress and act in a masculine manner.
