I ride a Fuji 450se conversion. It's a terry style--with a 24" front wheel and a 700c rear. It has a straight top tube, though.

While its sometimes harder to find a men's bike in my size (48cm) I much prefer them over women's frames. I've compensated by changing out the bars and stem if needed. I would rock that pink moyer frame though, for sure. I can't help but shudder when I see gals on those step-thru cruiser bikes with the seat a foot or so lower than the handlebars. It just seems so... inefficient.
