I know what you mean, I've had that happen to me a couple times. Recently I've grown into a more girly type of tomboy so it seems like I have a nice balance between the two. It also depends alot on the men. I had friends who I helped get with women who were totally different than me but there are guys like my boyfriend who don't go for the overtly girly type.
There's still definately a difference in conversations with women versus men. I find that I alienate some women when I start going off about my hobbies and such because alot of them don't know what I'm talking about where as more guys do and most of them think it's pretty cool.
