Topic: t shirts

[learning_1]

I am thinking about wearing some feminine t shirts. I have some and they are v neck. Not sure if i am brave enough for this to wear out in public. I have worn them under long sleeve shirts. So what t shirts can i get that are feminine? I went to a store and they had t shirts short sleeve and long sleeve in metal bins in the womens dept  and i got some. One is a long sleeve and its a regular shirt but its a lighter purple( to me i am color blind). I have a darker purple but the neck is a little big on it

If you have a thin waistline I've bought cropped T shirts.
There are also shirts that come in at the waist.

I first started buying feminine T shirts at Tourist Traps in places like Block Island.

My go to wardrobe is t-shirt and shorts almost every day. Comfort is the most important thing. The only thing that makes a t-shirt feminine is a plunging neck line, the deeper it is, the more feminine you appear. Sleves, long or short or even sleeveless is secondary. Wear what is comfortable and appropriate for the weather.

I wear a lot of the Lularoe Randy shirts. They are advertised as unisex. Some have very feminine patterns and some are rather gender neutral. None are masculine. They do have baseball sleeves and a crew neck.  They tend to me my go-to
Tie dye shirts can also be feminine or unisex and they are very popular right now.

I wouldn’t worry about the V neck as long as it doesn’t’ plunge too deep.  While typically female, men’s V-neck are more common than you realize. 

A Scoop neckline is much more on the feminine side and harder to get away with if you don’t want to be noticed.  Scoop necks are rounded and noticeably lower in the front, making them wider on the shoulders too.  A modest scoop neck may not get noticed.   

A Boat neckline is always feminine.  Boat necks are similar to a standard neck line in the front and back, but wide on the shoulders.  Sometimes just a couple of inches or so, sometimes all the way out to the end of the shoulders.  The ends could be rounded or sometime pointed (like a boat).  I think women would be more likely to notice even a modest boat neck.

Another big aspect of most women’s tees are the sleeves.  They tend to have “Cap” sleeves.  Cap sleeves are short, often not much longer on the inside then the sleeve opening.  The outside edge of cap sleeves are shorter than the inside.  They look like they are riding up on the shoulder.  You can get away with these if they’re not too short.

I’ve started wearing scoop neck shirts to work recently.  Most are long sleeve and some are ¾ length for now, but the weather is finally starting to warm up so that will change.  Some Henley style, some sweater style. Some have other modest feminine embellishments (no floral patterns yet). 

Non are crop tops, but some just come down to the top of my jeans and need to be “adjusted” often.  Part of this is shirt style part is just what you get when you’re 6’ tall. 

I just bought my first boat neck top today (at Goodwill).  It’s a white, ribbed knit top, with ½ length sleeves and a modest boat neck.  It’s going to take some doing to talk myself into wearing this one to work, but I will.   

The way I see it, what’s the point of wearing woman’s cloths out if there isn’t something feminine about it.  Even if its ever so slight.   

So, Learning_1, what I’m saying is: Go for it!  Almost no one’s going to notice the V neck, and no one is going to say anything.  When you get back home, I’ll bet you’re going to feel good about yourself.

I got a nice female t-shirt off of temu. It is a decent quality and you can't really tell that it is feminine unless you know what you're looking at. You need to be careful with the neck hole and also sleeveless because your bra straps will show. That's why quality is important too because some of those t-shirts are so thin you can see right through them and of course your bra will show. I always wear ladies tank top underneath my and that covers that up pretty good.

Dear Courtney... you are correct regarding your comments regarding Female -gendered t-shirts.

Also, many "female" t-shirts have a lower-cut V-neck or a wider and lower scoop neck...
...thus exposing more skin below the neck and above the breasts.

The standard "men's" crew-neck is more difficult to find in the "female version of t-shirts....
so if you have long torso or are relatively tall you might expose some midriff skin.

The length of the t-shirt  (bottom hemlines) is also shorter in the "female" version. 

The approximate sizing differences are shown below:
            Women's            Men's
            Extra Large  ~=     Large
            Large          ~=     Medium
            Medium        ~=    Small
            Small           ~=    X-Small           

HUGS,

Yes all correct.  I often miss out on Fem tees for sizing, only just.  However I have some work shirts that have all of these features and I love this style so much.
