I really love my three little girls, and my wife, and my two female dogs; but sometimes I do feel overwhelmed by all the pink around me. I own it well. Neighbors frequently see me cruising with my girls riding my wife's childhood Schwinn Lil Chick banana bike.

It is nice to be more at their level and speed versus my road and mountain bikes. I can rock a mean wheelie on it; but... where did all my testosterone go?...

Well, I think I found it! My new neighborhood ride!

For all of you guys and gals outnumbered in your families, share with us things you do to keep things in "balance".
 
I know exactly what you mean. I have spent my entire life wading in the estrogen ocean. I grew up the only boy in a house with three sisters. Then married, had a daughter, and out of about 9 dogs over the years only 2 were males. I would consider myself a man's man but I definitely own my feminine side.

@Seadeals, love the new ride but don't hesitate to hop back on that pink beauty and ride some monster wheelies. :winkingthumbsup"
 
My wife gets bored with me and the two boys, she won't play cars/trucks with the 2 year old, and won't go have a Nerf gun war with the 8 year old, so she sits out on a lot of fun times (in my opinion).

@Sealdeals, before my son was born, it was all females for me also. The masculinity and testosterone come from being man enough to hang with your daughters and wife and not care about the pink. That being said, you will always need that man thing on the side to keep you happy. Good job...
 
I am completely owned by a 4 year old grand daughter! And yes.....I have seen every episode of Bella and the Bulldogs.....UGH
 
I have two daughters, wife and we had a female dog. I fly fast jets and mod up my jet boat. That works for me...
 
I will definitely keep riding the pink Lil Chik too. Besides, my wife looks really hot riding the chopper bike, so that's another good reason and helps boost my testosterone too. It was also cool today when my oldest daughter asked me if she could play with the "fast jet" I built when playing Legos with them (instead of all the other girly princess ones they had assembled). Now that they are all in bed... one beer in my man cave garage with the boat and I'm ready for another week of work.

All in bed??? Can I send my 4 year old boy there??? Lol!
 
Power tools! Now that separates the men from the women! My wife, love her to death, but she doesn't even know how to start the blower!
 
I know what you mean. I have 2 college age daughters and my wife. Cant walk in the house without tripping over a hormone. Once a month I check in to Bob's PMS shelter for men.
 
I am with you guys. 2 daughters, wife, dog is female, cat is female, pretty sure the gold fish is female as well. Ughhhh! I man it up working on the boat, atvs, and taking a cruise in the Mustang.
 
Hah, same here. 3 daughters, a wife, and 3 wimpy dogs. 1 graduating college, 1 still in college, and 1 going into high school. Playing in the garage and Bourbon keeps me sane. But as they say, I wouldn't want it any other way as Daddy can do no wrong in the girls eye's as my wife always says.
