The better way to tackle this problem is to tell your friend that when they say that to you it makes you feel uncomfortable about yourself. If they keep saying it then they arent a great friend.
We are all shades of tomboy and girl-iness! I work with animals all day (and often night!) and dress is slobby practical jeans and jumpers. You wouldnt call them girlie. And I wouldnt say Im the prettiest thing going and have my own confidence issues.
I can dress up - although with my life that doesnt happen too much. Yet - I think I have charming manner and a smile that puts people quickly at their ease. I can flirt (when the mood takes me!) and my eyes sparkle.
So they are the traits that make me feel more feminine.
Know yourself - your good bits and your bad bits (not too many of them ) and feel comfortable in who you are. Enjoy yourself and others will enjoy your company too however you dress or sound!!
