Well, the MTF's have "You Look Fabulous", the FTM's have "You Look Badass" - I thought we were missing the bandwagon, especially when all the cool kids are doing it.
You know the drill, post a photomagraph of yourself and we will tell you how gorgeous you look. Please be as sycophantic as possible, indeed - prizes to the most overwrought complements - could be fun
Who cares if the person doesn't look androgynous, lets just try and see if the person looks like they got any spark of life or not.

My mouth,
In the vein of being as sycophantic as possible, that is the most incredible mouth I have ever seen!
That's a totally cute tash!
So how about this: Fat bird on the slide

Just.
As for tash-face, I love the way the moustache brings out your eyes, like radiant green/grey golfballs but without the unsightly dimples.
As for fat bird on a slide (TM) the mood feeling of exhilaration and expectation as she slides brings out the feelings of jealousy and having a lovely looking pool in the garden.
And we're stickied - it's all good.
Pica, you're hilarious, I love the mood of all these photos, very uplifting thread.

My memories of the High Jump I don't think I even attempted it, I could get on those mats easily nowadays haha :) But with a bar I have no clue what to do, which is why I can't do jumping spinning kicks waste of energy anyway I say haha :)
I wouldn't have done it had I not been asked to.
OH - and as for the elephant, I have nearly 100 pictures of me/my sister/me & my sister with large decorated elephants.
OH, OH - Any other pictures from anyone else?

And here I'm just doing the Ryandance.
:D
I quite like it when I get feminine comments about my apearance (georgous, pretty)
but I much prefer when people make comments that have no gender bias (freaky,nice,funny,wild)
a couple of days ago I was in the local shopping centre when a little girl about 5 or 6 years old was looking at me strange and giggling then said "That's funny" I had trouble hiding my joy (I'm not he or she I'm that, and I'm funny) - I was wearing black tights under my animal print dress I may have had red lipstick on my bearded face. (not to mention my odd socks or ladies lace up sandles, or my breast forms) :)
I a different note Pica you high jump photo brought back some bad memories - When I was still trying to fit in at a single sex school I high jumped over the bar and over the mat landing head first on the (not soft) grass behind the mat. - ouch - I cried a little and was punished for the tears, I wasn't good at being a boy.
i was in my androgynous period for most of high school. looking back, i remember people looking at me all confused. i remember being in line with my mom at a grocery store. the cashier looked all puzzled at me for about 30 seconds and then asked "is he with you?" about 85% of the time, i was taken for male. that seems to be the gendered rule. if you don't know the gender, it's male. i don't believe in that though, thank god. there has to be some people with sense.
Fantastic! ;D I'm particularly fond of my new avatar...thought I was quite smart for coming up with it. hehehehe. However...I'll add this pic to the pile:

I was trying on my pirate outfit for a festival I'm going to in June. Quite dashing I think...
I'm still gobsmacked over the glory that is Ryan's almostbeard and the Dread Pirate Sevan pops up.
Aw pica, you do know how to make a person blush!!
Pica, you most certainly look superbly alright. The elephant photo... :laugh:
The eyeliner beard doesn't look any worse than my mascara mustache, and I am much approving. But the Ryandance is by far my favourite of the photos. Dramatic!
And I'm simply speechless as a result of Sevan's picture. Dashing indeed. :o
Seven, now you just need a parrot. :laugh:

I'm one happy androgyn!
GREAT haircut, Sevan!!! I love the pride (and happiness) I see in your face with that shirt on.

By the shining Big-Sea-Water,
Stood the wigwam of Luke,
Child of the Moon, Luke.
And as for Sevan and the box fresh t-shirt, happy stuff.
Sevan, I love your hair! ;D And the t-shirt, I am hugely jealous.
Awww thanks! I'm happy with the shirt. It's my first purchase through cafepress and I'm super stoked with it! It's for sale on cafepress. Anyone can have one :D hehe
I found it! ;D
I've decided that the shirt shall be my motivation for losing some weight. :) When I can fit into a small again, since that's sort of my default size...and then I will probably also have some money for some of Sevan's lovely looking soap.
*blushes* awww yay!
Love all the pics!

Everybody is soo cute!
I shall have to add and upload this Sunday, get my sweetie to take a pic.
Looks good Doberman!! :)
Aw thanks.
In random news, I'm going to Pride tomorrow and SO wish I had a shirt. I guess I'll look around while I'm there and see if I get lucky.
I'm going to skip Pride this year, but I'm hoping to make it to the TransMarch on Friday June 24 (for those of you in the area).
I hope you can find something that brings a smile to your face Dobberman! :) Have a blast at PRIDE! We'll be at PRIDE this weekend too :)
since i'm no good at those introduction things, i figured i'd just post a pic here. that should explain well enough who i am...
so, this is me with my favorite hairstyle of last year's. would be nice to hear what you think

We're trying to set a low, easy to reach, threshold. That's the kind of people we are.
well, would be unfair to insist on gorgeousity.
Nice picture explorer :)
thanks for your compliments. i especially liked yours, sevan
i realize i should have thanked you earlier, but i was stressing out over too many things happening at once irl. i liked that look so much, it took years off my age, and i could pass as anything as long as the rest of my body wasn't seen

It's been a while since I posted a pic.

After more than thirty years together, we're finally getting unionized on July 11. We have matching tungsten carbide rings-- super tough rings for a couple of burly broads. When Cindy saw the union shirt I picked out, she said, "A bowling shirt!" I guess it does look like a bowling shirt. She brought home a couple of polo shirts; we'll decide which one goes best with mine. We're having a ball.
Congratulations Luke!!!! ;D That's wonderful. You both look so happy!
Adore it Luke, it's so utterly lovely...smiles and closeness that cannot be faked.
Congrats, Luke! You two are adorable!

I was in a box! ...and I got molested. Domo-kun needed an adult! (a guy seriously asked me for a hug, got said hug, and then stuck his hand into the box and grabbed my crotch. Then he ran away.)
All the other hugs I got were good, though. :D
He grabbed a box's crotch!?!

Wow, I almost thought you were a girl (well, female bodied) in that pic. Spose that's a good thing for an androgyne - to look female in some pics and male in others?
I'm jealous of people who can rock a bowtie.
I thought it kinda feminine, but then my avi picture taken the same night looks very male, and with the shadow hitchcockian.

I also thought the facial expression on the first was indefinable, I'd probably had a fair amount to drink by then, but I still can't work it out - some sort of creepy twisted half-smile.
;D you all look extremely alright. Love it!
The air buzzing with foreign tongues
And the occasional cries
Of sailors, tramps and rock 'n' rollers . . .

Hey come over here I'll treat you right

Actually, you are what I imagine when I think of other androgynes.... or maybe it's just being a bespectacled ex-ginger, that you look a lot like how I see me - except with a lovely shiny head.
I like yer purple shirt, I have one like that - and instead of beads I have a thing gold chain, I would like a necklace that looks like a candy necklace or maybe a permanent daisy-chain or both...
Also the drum thing with the blurhands, very cool. I like it when people thwack lots of drums.,,(I did ask for a samba band for party)

your pic just reminded me of a funny song..
Purple is my favorite color, edging just slightly ahead of all the other cool colors. Gray and black are good too.
The beads got started as a spiritual thing, I got used to the idea of wearing them, and started to enjoy making them. I'd kinda like to learn silversmithing or something fancy like that, or at least hammering/drilling coins into rings or something. Maybe someday.

Purple is my favourite; colour of royalty and cadbury's chocolate.

As a friend said once, "I like to feel the wind in my stubble." :)
Showers are different too with a shaved head.
I went bald on top and decided that shaving the rest looked better than having a reddish-blonde monk's tonsure or the Gallagher look.

eeeyyyy, that's the ticket.
Sparkle i' the eye as well, looking alright.
With my family, I should refrain from wearing obviously feminine clothes such as tubetop and bikini. So I tried to reveal my chest in the beach while playing together with my little daugter. Another purpose was to tan the whole of my upper body. It's long time that I exhibit myself as a dad in beach.
My kids already noticed and mentioned the white stripe in my back. The stripe was marked by tanning while I ran outdoors with sport bra this summer.
I am not quite sure whether strangers in the beach noticed my back, but it seems that I looked alright.

Tekla,
Thanks for compliments. I envy the model for the thick layer of fat accumulated at the outer skin, which I can not have forever.
Some guys here sometimes comment that my skin is smoother than women, but I think taste is just different among people.
Buy wearing silk stockings, I can assume to have smooth and fatty skin of legs.

Only concert I ever "bumped into" was BB King on one of the piers in Baltimore as I walked from the Inner Harbor to Fell's Point. I was most satisfied!
Now that IS something to bump into.
only ones i've just bumped into are yothu yindi, yat-kha, alash, altan urag. they were nice people who played nice music, but i don't think too many have heard of them all
edit: forgot to mention gåte. norwegian folk rock
Nope.
They sound like types of curry to me, but then, most things do.
When BB plays the Fillmore, we bring him up on the freight lift that we use for equipment as the handicapped elevator is not big enough for him, his assistant and, of course, Lucille.
Here is me.

Well, we are all just two steps from madness as the late and great Italian psychoanalyst Cesare Musatti once said in a TV interview.
As for getting along with people the world is full of idiots, all we can do is try to avoid them and try to find those worth talking to and being around.

madness? this is spartaaaaaaaaaaI think I'm two steps after madness.
On the other hand, anybody can be crazy. It takes genius to be mad.
I've been searching over the internet for cool people, it's hard. It really is much harder to find cool people in real life.
Two steps after madness is not madness by definition. You want madness, look a few hundred kilometres north. That's true madness and dangerous madness at that. Non dirò altro se non qui scoppia il finimondo!... ;)
Depends by what you mean by cool. All we can do is move on and we bump into people who may or may not be ok. Met a cool and very crazy person yesterday by sheer chance, it happens.

Ativan
being understood depends on the listener, not the person expressing.
One thing is to "sound like bull
>-bleeped-<" and another is to "say bull
>-bleeped-<"
Just because there might be aliens visiting us doesn't means that they are in control of the major cities in the world, plotting and planning the demise of the human race.
On the other hand, galileo.
Galileo?
He was tried by the Inquisition, found "vehemently suspect of heresy", forced to recant, and spent the rest of his life under house arrest.[12][13] It was while Galileo was under house arrest that he wrote one of his finest works, Two New Sciences
basically the dude was a genius but people didn't quite get him and thought he was somehow broken.

People seemed to like this photo. I'm mostly wondering where in that song my left hand is supposed to do that.
That's a great picture! I've often loved such drum performances!! So fun. :)

Took a new picture today. Thought I'd share it. :)

Sevan- You look great! And so happy! :)
That big smile says it all...
Pretty freakin' happy for Ya!!
Ativan
What a big beautiful smile!
Awwww *shucks* Thanks!! :laugh:
It always helps when Cyndi's taking the pictures rather than when I set the self timer. I think my smile is more true...she tends to annoy me by taking pictures of my back (as I walk away from her) and then makes me laugh and then we end up with a good picture somewhere in the mix.
Looking good Sevan! :)
Nowadays I am in dull mode, as I have been busy with my works and trips.
But last weekend I had a chance to visit and walk in a palace of Seoul (http://whc.unesco.org/en/list/816 (http://whc.unesco.org/en/list/816)).
Still in dull mode, but that was what I can do at best.

Me, too, tekla.
A few newspaper reporters here took photos of me several times to publish in relation to my working area.
All of my photos published in the newspaper were taken when I just woke up after all night drinking
or was completely exhausted from hot weather, and etc.
They tend to prefer to pick up my worst image and want to reveal my masculine aspect.
Any more photos from the palace.
It is nice to find a serene place in the crowded downtown of Seoul.
The place is located in a old town. People there tend to speak to me in bars or even in the street.
I drank and chat with my male friends at the previous night in a bar of the old town.
The hostess seemed to be surprised at my height.
She first shouted like "your height is more than 170 cm", and my friends replied "No. More than 180 cm."
The she said "Oh. You are a man."
I replied "No. I am a woman."
Then she came to me to touch my back to pull the band of my bra.
She said "Oh. sorry, you are a woman."

I hope This Works haven't posted picks here before
Looks like I can't link direct from facebook
EEEEeeyyyyy at last, I have never seen you before.
You are a keen exponent of the colour purple, I love purple.
And it looks so very natural, it's brilliant.
Brilliant, Kinkly, BRILLIANT!!
Look at the hair color and the purple :) You look like you enjoy yourself, and you know how to color match. Winner.
Thanks Marina & Pica Pica, I've always liked Purple and I think it looks good on me
Those photos Kinkly? They are officially alright.
Absolutly Alright!, Absolutly!
Kinkly Has sent a new precedent and has raised the bar. well done.
Ativan
Fantastic Kinkly! I'm so glad you finally posted some pictures!! :D
I've been um-ing and arr-ing about posting in this thread for a while thanks for the positive feedback It means alot
i'm amazed at how far beyond just "alright" you people look.
kinkly, it's wonderful to see your pictures! i get this feeling you are supposed to look like that. and sevan too, i'm getting a lot more of that feeling from your pictures after your surgery (congratz!). your smiles are dazzling
I agree with everyone else, Kinkly, you look excellent. Your presentation just makes sense, and your smile confirms that.
This year's Christmas Elf.

This is my manly side now.
Now that's a hat that would scare the elves away. I'm expecting the "Spam, spam, spam" chorus anytime now.
Inspired by the "Do you wear dresses?" thread, I put on a dress. And I feel pretty fabulous.

Nice! ;D I love colourful dresses. I don't think I could ever wear one myself, but I think they look awesome.
Christmas decorations and a sundress, very incongruent. I LOVE it !!!
You look super duper alright Julian!! I like that dress :)
I like the dress, and I like the dress on you. It looks right, as I'm sure many less feminine items do to - but in the case of this one, you look... alright.
Thanks, you guys! Pica, you're right; it feels right. I rarely come by dresses (that's the newest, at summer '09), but when I do, it's a perfect fit. This one is my absolute favorite.
And I didn't realize the festivity of the house was so apparent in the background. :D Thank my mom for that.
Your mom decorates a little different then mine lol
I like how your mom does it, it's nice and CLEAN, really nice.
I don't care if I pass in these, I don't care if I'm fabulous, I just want to be alright.

I'm starting laser on the 17th, so I will FINALLY be comfortable walking around without makeup as a survival tool. Then we get into the real business of living without stressing over appearance, pretty much. Makeup will be fun again (after a good long break)!
Sadly, stressing over appearance is what women do.

I think, if I concentrate hard enough, I might be okay for an hour. But then I would be concentrating on not concentrating, and that defeats the purpose. Gah!!!!
I was a little bit stranged out when you said "That's what women do..." I guess that's partially because I'm strange.
Anyway, I enjoyed our multithread conversation, but now I must go and get ready to eat! Adieu!
face it, you look pretty good.
You do. I'm amazed you haven't had any laser done already, your skin looks very smooth.
That is a good lookin smile!
I got some new clothes and a few hats for Christmas and so I decided to model two of my favorites :)

The first was store bought (LOVE the new sweater dress fashion!!) and the second was a hand made set made by my MIL :) She also made me a 20's esque clotch/beret and it's got this big crocheted bow on the side. I wasn't sure I liked it at first...but it's kinda growing on me. Ah hell. Guess I best go take a picture and just show you. ;) hehe
Loving the outfit and hat Sevan!
I sense that we need to come up with a gender neutral term for god/goddess though? But I'm coming up dry.
Aw thanks Casey! My SIL gave us that sign as a house warming present (pre transition for both honey and I) and it hangs over our front door. I really like it.
My bestie is non religious but very spiritual and doesn't much like the connotation (negative) that can go with most dieties (from a non religious stand point especially.) and she came up with the term Godness. It's a play on "Goodness" and "God" and I dig it. It does still have "God" in it, which could be male if you wanted to take it that way but..."Good" is neither male nor female, or definitely both...it's a thought.

It was the bow thingy that kinda threw me and made me not like it so much...but it's super duper soft and I can ignore the bow. Its a throw back for me to jr high when I used to wear a beret alot. T'was a bad time generally speaking but I struck out and started to find my sense of style so there is that.
Y'all are too nice :)
I like your Columbia jacket there, Sevan. Does it get frigid up there where you stay?
Quite! This morning it's around...15 degrees...I think. We stay under 34 degrees every day.

I know that feeling. It's wonderful, isn't it.
Could it be because you're tired of people thinking of you as male? I know in my case, being seen as female isn't correct either, but it's a refreshing change from being seen as male.
You do look quite androgynous in that picture. I'm jealous :)

Tbh, I think if I could choise I'd have been born female, but still been adrogyne, only thing I'd miss out on was a good screamo voice lol :P
right now I have about 3 different things that I have to deal with, 4 if you include this, but this has been the only one that I can really find comfort in, I love it weirdly enough :P
Heh. If I had the choice I'd have been born male and still been neutrois, at the expense of a lovely soprano voice.
I wanted to take a picture and show off how lovely and red my hair was, but my webcam was like LOLNOPE.

Haha, the only ones anyone sees are like the top 5%. Surprising as it may be, I'm generally not very photogenic.
Thank you, though. :-*
I take literally thousands of photo's a year. Less than 5% pass the final cut. Of those, maybe 10% get printed and/or published.
It takes effort and time along with many try's to get the emotional tone that you set out for in a photo.
But when you do, the true beauty and emotion you tried to capture will come through.
It is the same as when a view catches your eye for a moment. Your mind takes the picture for you to remember.

No fair Picax2, thats' beyond alright, a smoking jacket moves it right up to suave and debonair.
So after about three years of oscillating between masculine and feminine expression/identity and everything in between, I've finally (with the help of my awesome friends from my college's LGBTUnion) realized I have a genderqueer identity and have for the present settled on an androgynous male expression. Really the "aha" moment for the latter came when I watched the first season of the L Word with Shane. A kind of long-haired butch expression really suits what I want to present as.

Anthropos, that's... all right!
Foosnark - help, please! I tried to post a pic, under the 'You are...allright' thread, but I couldn't figure out how to do it. I clicked on that little 'camera' icon, but I didn't understand what to do next. Maybe I can't upload, from my tablet. Thanks for any help you can offer (or anyone else, too!) Thanks, Foosnark - JinJan.
I just answered my own question (above) - it appears that my inability to post a pic, has to do with 'post rankings' - looks like I have to wait awhile - couldn't tell if I have to wait until I have 15, or 50, posts - no biggie - it will happen, eventually! Thanks, anyway - JinJan.

So after about three years of oscillating between masculine and feminine expression/identity and everything in between, I've finally (with the help of my awesome friends from my college's LGBTUnion) realized I have a genderqueer identity and have for the present settled on an androgynous male expression. Really the "aha" moment for the latter came when I watched the first season of the L Word with Shane. A kind of long-haired butch expression really suits what I want to present as.

It's a very alright look. Actually, your hair is kinda perfect.

It felt really, really good to see this.
It's probably not any more accurate than your average Cosmo quiz, but still, there's some validation from the results. I really did expect it to say something like "you're just a guy. Get over it". I'm still dealing with some it's-all-in-your-head self-talk, so it was nice to hear someone, even a dubious online quiz, agree with me.
That score looks alright :)
I don't like the COGIATI test because it makes too many unstated assumptions about who's taking it (although if you fit those assumptions, great). I like the S.A.G.E. test better. But they both got me right.
The simple, silly gender tests tend to say I'm male or female, pretty much randomly LOL

Hadn't heard of the S.A.G.E. before. I tried it this morning and it pasted me as an androgyne at dead center. That sounds a little skewed - despite everything I think I'm still probably more man than woman, but it was good to get just one more validation that this whole thing isn't all in my head.

Hi, I put my photo here, because I look andro now. I try something new, what do you think? I'm, now about 1 week off HRT so I have some unvanted face changes. :'(
Hi, Medusa,
You look fine. I think your eyes are especially attractive, and you may accentuate them by some makeup. I was denied HRT as I am married.

Hello "Eva." I have never forgotten my first time out in public, it was Great! That first time is a confidence builder, that makes you realize you belong out in the world. Congratulations. Now you can fly. Freedom for Eva.

I think the COGIATI test could be really harmful if the wrong person ran into it. It could really scare someone or destroy their confidence if they got the wrong result. I think we look for these kinds of tests because we're afraid to take responsibility for our decisions, although a lot of the time we're more afraid of other people punishing or judging us than we are of just living with those decisions.
One thing I know is that being autistic made my score much more male than it would otherwise be, although when I took again for the first time in about a year I scored "probable transsexual" instead of "androgyne." That reflects how I'm feeling now, I guess. But both times my scores would be way, way higher if I could remember people's names (memory problems), could recognize people's faces easily (prosopagnosia), could easily read people's feelings, etc... basically super autism=male bias. But then I guess that's why so many autistic women never get diagnosed.
(Oh and I think math is "fun and useful" which turned out to be the malest possible choice. I'm not some kind of math genius, but yes it's fun like a puzzle and yes math is useful for a lot of things. I mean is anyone seriously going to argue that math is useless?)
The autism label makes it very easy for me to describe why this test doesn't fit me very well. Other people may not have a neat label like that, but it could fit them just as badly.

Agree.
I took them more for reassurance than any wisdom they could offer. My experience is so different from others on this site. I'm not thinking of changing my appearance from garden-variety middle-aged male and early on there were messages telling me that I didn't really belong here. If either SAGE or COGIATI had said total he-man I'd have discarded them quickly.
It's just this is such a big change. My wife is half-freaking out even though I'm trying to reassure her that I have more than enough man in the mix to be the husband she wants. A little bit of external validation goes a long way.
I like tests, so I took the SAGE (the COGIATI is useless to me as female-bodied) and it said androgynous for... everything until the very end when it said "Female-to-Male possible Transsexual." Well, then. It was reassuring, at least, for me.
Carbon, I get what you mean by autism skewing the results--I surely skew more "male" due to autism--but the odd thing is I've found the autistic men I know to be more toward what I'm told is stereotypical "female" stuff once you get past the difficulty remembering people and such. I totally don't buy into that "autism is super-male brain" stuff--it's just different. But from experience, yeah: it's hard to get diagnosed with autism as a female, in no small part because of the automatic assumption that since one is female one would somehow automatically be less likely to be autistic.
I need to get a decent pic and post it!

It's also harder for women to get diagnosed because they are socialized to respond to problems in a different way than men, so people are more likely to see the problems of autistic boys and take them seriously than they are to notice the problems of autistic girls. I had a lot of trouble getting diagnosed accurately and I didn't get diagnosed until I was an adult. Even though I ostensibly had a "male socialization," I think I responded to my problems more like a girl, by taking my problems out on myself and trying to hide them from other people.

Great look, Drill. Masculine hair and glasses and the earring softens it all just a bit.
This past Monday my local trans* support group was honored at a yearly LGBT award ceremony as the most awesome group/organization. I fretted about what to wear and how to present...and I decided to say screw it, and present as androgyn as I could imagine. I was quite pleased with the results!

Buff them for a more polished look, lightly scrape the backsides when cleaning them for a whiter look.
Filing them and smoothing the edge will help keep them from cracking, as will some hardener.
I don't use anything on mine, they are generally the same length, except for my left hand.
The left hand is shorter because of the way I use that hand for guitar playing.
They look nice, just need a little filing to look more uniform.

Barbie, UV light isn't bad for you. It's quite good for you actually. It's only bad when you burn. ultraviolet rays aren't strong in the morning and evening, so if you run then, you won't have to cover yourself up like that.

Barbie, UV light isn't bad for you. It's quite good for you actually. It's only bad when you burn. ultraviolet rays aren't strong in the morning and evening, so if you run then, you won't have to cover yourself up like that.
Yes. I began to run outdoors early in the morning two days ago. It is cooler and easy to run in the morning.

East Asian people usually have skin that is very sensitive to the UV. In winter, my face becomes white, then brown in summer. Even in the morning, I will wear long sleeve tee and long tights.
The following photo shows how much the UV can damage our skin: a driver who worked 28 years on a truck with no air conditioner.

Aww thank you!
You may call me either, or =) I've lived many years as Van and many as Vanna, so half the people I know call me Van and he, and the other half call me Vanna and she. I always leave it up to the persons interpretation, whether they see me as more of a woman or more of a man.
You should have written =)

Yah,... so so alright! You look very nice.
Ativan
I just wanted to say that I absolutely *LOVE* this post! :)
I always feel that I get that "you look....alright" when I dress like a guy. It's frustrating. Blah. :P
Changed my avatar, I liked the old one, but it wasn't me.
(I hope nobody took it as actually that)
But yes, that is me.
I live in an area that is more than just rural.
I have dirt roads to walk on that I rarely, if any, see others.
There are lots of wooded areas that I have never seen anyone else.
So with the hot weather this year, that is how I generally dress. Fun.
I don't know if it qualifies as 'Alright', but it sure feels alright.
Ativan
That's you? I don't whether to wish I looked like you or make a flirty comment.
I just received a message asking about my avatar.
The other one, not me. I wish it was. I don't have the waist or butt.
A friend saw it and referred it to me, knowing how I will walk around like that.
The avatar that is up now, is me.
I do have one like it except I'm wearing a camo miniskirt. Just for the fun of it.
Ativan
Wearing sports bras is not common here, except some marathon events.
I run with sports bras once or twice per year.
I just wish I look alright.

try bangs though. That way people won't be able to tell it's a wig because of the hairline.

That's crazy. I fall asleep in class or on the train and end up in the bronx or something if I were to have so little sleep.
When I work I prefer to work like that, my standard 'work day' in that area is anywhere from 14-18 hours,* but stuff like huge set-ups like that are all about getting it done regardless of sleep, besides once you make it to double-time no one wants to stop, the money is way, way too good.
*- but I also take lots, and lots, and lots of time off, I only worked 3 shows this summer for example. And those pretty much by protest.
I went to my cousin's meet and greet party for her forthcoming wedding and for some reason or other, the highlight in the buffet was a cooked pig's face which people carved parts of the cheek out of.
Unfortunately, the other highlight was the copious amounts of wine and it was too, too long before I was using the pig's face as a ventriloquist's dummy and miming to Wet Wet Wet's 'Love is all around'.
Here are the photos.

Hi there. I look like this. Still a tiny bit too girly for feeling okay about it, but more like myself than ever before. :)
Have had that short hair for some weeks now, and feeling much better than with the long hair I used to have.
Still thinking of finally getting a new color, too - I've been a redhead for eight years. :P
(https://fbcdn-sphotos-a-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/598801_10151082973243932_1033390849_n.jpg)
Very...alright. I like your androgynous look. Not many come by it as naturally as your picture shows.
^ Yay, thanks a lot! :) Nice to hear that my look has an androgynous feel to it. It's hard to notice when people around me still mostly think of me as a female.
And yea, I feel lucky to look naturally quite similar to what I feel I am. The biggest change for me has been to have the courage to show it and not trying to hide. :)
Posting random pictures of me. Sorry for the gratuitous posting of my mug :X

Hey there, kagenoir... I like your looks. Really versatile and cute :)
Hiya there Phoenix,thanks for the compliment! You're totally rocking the natural androgynous look. The redhead looks awesome on you :D
you all look rather alright. or even good
in a good mood today, so i'm taking a chance and even using myself as my avatar
the color got me compliments today, obviously better than the white/pink i had before

edited because i changed the picture's url... only noticed now that it was gone
Very alright.
Taka,your hair colour's really,really nice. It gives you this cool,bad-ass look.
*Looks at Taka*
Gah.. ok, it's about time I said something I've been thinking for a long time...
I get the point of the "You Look....Alright" thing, but "alright" is quite understated compared to the guy's "You look badass dude" thing and the girl's "You look fabulous darling" thing. I hope it was intentional sarcastic understatement :)
EDIT: you look badulous, dudeling :D
Well 'fabulous darling' and 'badass' just aren't in my vocabulary, but 'alright' with a half nod and smile is.
It's not sarcastic, or even understated - it's just the others are too overstated and not fitting with me limey sensibilities.

Ohhh, I get it... I kept thinking of it like the line in Thunder Road: "You ain't a beauty, but eh, you're alright".
"Fabulous darling" and "badass dude" aren't in my vocabulary either, by the way.
If I have offended anyone with the poor word choice (badass),then I apologize.

No, actually it was the opposite. I was a bit jealous that the equivalent thread in the FTM section has a word that strong right in the title of the thread, and we don't. LOL
But Pica Pica explained it and I get it now, so everything's ok. Alright, even :)

Cute! You do look really young alright, nothing wrong with looking young. It's worked in my favor all my life and people still act flabbergasted and refuse to believe it when I say that I'm pushing 70.
HAhah thanks. My mom says that I look like a middle schooler and that I'll be grateful for looking young when I'm older. And I don't mind looking young–I just have to dress really profesional for when I tutor at the high school or else I look like a student.

Looking young can get a bit annoying though, like getting carded for buying mature materials.
i had a good laugh not too long ago, when i was still wearing white/pink hair. people told me they thought i was 17-18, which is 10 years younger than i really am. i thought i'd told them i was a teacher, but apparently they didn't hear that part of my introduction... but now that i'm getting closer to adulthood, it feels good to be thought of as not quite there yet. though a little funny to realize this guy didn't come on to me so strongly as i found him likely to, because he thought i was too young...

I thought about posting to the FtM's "you look badass dude" topic but couldn't, I just don't know if I'd be received well there (as I am not FtM)...
Thanks for the compliments :)))
looks like i missed a few pics... that's what i get for being away
the ones i could see were alright, to say the least

You should if you want to. And you should be as welcome as FTM (and MTF) are on this thread.
You look as Badass as they do Alright.
I think any petty technicalities that may come up will be recognized as just that.
There is an area, 'Just For Us', that is for separate groups, but really, anyone can post anywhere.
As there are many people who find they are more comfortable in a different group, a majority (if not all) are welcomed.
Just as we do here. It's becoming more and more common. And why not?
Isn't that a part of why people joined this forum? To be able to find like people, regardless of gender?
It'd be a great way to start a new year. It's going to be a really good year for all of us.

Okay :) Will post! I think that also, that we (specially we, as we bend from gender to gender, or are neutrois/agender) should also act as agents to integrate all groups, for nor a single of us in this forum should think binarily. Thanks for cheering me up :)
And yes, it'll be a he** of a really good year!
Experimenting with that strange thing called gender. ^^ Yea I know I look more like a girl with make-up, but what can one do. Maybe some day I won't, though :) And maybe some day I'll learn to close my mouth in pics >.<

You're a nice looking kid and at your age could probably be clocked either way or as someone somewhere in between! It can be kind of liberating not having to live up to any specific stereotypes!

Both are very nice-you are quite alright!
Thank you so much, everyone ^^ It's been really heartwarming to read what you wrote :)
I have to agree with everyones comments. Both you and Soulfairer have very androgynous presentations.
Phoeniks, I like the second pic the best of two really good pics. Soulfairer, yours are all just as awesome.
You both 'Look Awesomely Very...Alright'.

Ah, but that's only because the photographer managed to cut off the bit where I'm giving the camera the finger! ;)
But thank you! :)
My hair is driving me crazy! Maybe someone here will have an idea of what to do with it. It's shaggy and fluffy and almost wavy and currently a tad mullet-y. Sometimes the front forms into a handlebar mustache of sorts and I can twirl it. I'm torn between something masculine, something queer-looking, or just letting it continue to grow.
This is my face, and my hair:

It also has the capacity to do this thing where it forms one (and only one) curl, which I've rocked with a short back and sides and could be persuaded to go back to:

So I know I need to get rid of the mullet, but beyond that I'm stumped. Any ideas? ???

I think you are alright! :) But if you'd like to sound more androgynous-y, perhaps cutting the hair like the hair not in the curl, and then it "spreads" over your front? If it's shorter, it should be easier to manage it! (but I'm going the opposite way, letting it grow :) )

It's not very clear to me what you do want from it. I could make suggestions, but I'm not sure they'd be pointed in the direction that I feel you probably have a good sense of, in your head, but perhaps have not visualized? At the current length, I find the symmetry of the cut a little disturbing, but what's unclear to me is whether you want to grow that symmetry out (or cut it back?) to a length where it works better? Or is it the symmetry itself that you're finding disturbing?
Do you have any examples of styles you do like? Or are you hoping to find one that has yet to see any kind of media exposure? Visual references with comment about what you like (and don't like) about them, would probably go far to clearing up the mystery for me at least. Maybe for you as well?
Cain, I've never seen your hair that long before. Lol. Errr. I actually think the length is cool in the back, but if I think it would look better if you found a way to get rid of the fringe. Not sure how one goes about that, if you'd have to grow it out or just style it out of the way, but yeah. There's my 2 cents.

Let's see here. I sometimes have a similar problem where my hair gets too wavy/curly/poofy. Overall a not-good style. That's okay. I usually ask for the length to be cut shorter and the weight on the top taken off. Hopefully, my vagueness helps you.
But I think you look good in this cut too!

Cain,
I like it as it is, looks good, low maintenance! Other than that you might do as I am and find a good stylist. I am growing out of a buzz cut, but instead of growing a long femmy mop, I told her to be creative and cut me toward a totally androgynous look, full swept back sides and poofed up in back. ten grow-outs and cuts from now I'll be close. BTW - I like the eyewear, very nice against your face!

Thanks, I like my glasses too. :3 I think the main problem is that if I grow it out any longer I'll look just like my sister. :-X But I kind of want to see what grown-up me looks like with chin-length hair; I haven't had it that length in a decade, wow.
I need a good stylist. My mom sent me to hers, and she was afraid to use the clippers.

I've had the top thinned before, and that tends to just make it look scraggly. :-\ I wouldn't mind encouraging the wave, but my curls are so big that at this length it just makes, like, half a curl.
I like the cut, maybe looks like it could use a trim, but that looks good as a style, also.
*my avatar pics hair?* ;)
Or you could do like I do and forget about the whole damn thing and never get hair cuts.
I tie it back if it's going to get in my way, otherwise it just brushes back and stays that way.
You're looking good! Nice to see a pic up. You're always...Alright. :)

I thought these were kind of fun. They are from a shoot I did in November. I am both of these people, and I am male, so it's not nudity. The makeup artist made the hat on the right out of cupcake holders.

Nothing new recently :( I took some time off for Christmas and to work on a few other things. I have a shoot coming up feb 4th so i will post stuff then :) I also have to write an article for model mayhem about androgynous modeling, so I suspect I'll be pretty busy with jobs after then
It's not me, but London was looking pretty alright today from the 69th floor of The Shard.

Very alright :)
@VannaSiamese, I love your photo shoot image. It's so elegant. I'm a huge fan of the movement toward androgynous modeling going on now. I actually think it's having a very positive effect on public attitudes toward cross gendered persons.
You picture illustrates how well the unaltered male body can actually be very feminine with the right embellishment.
@Pica Pica, that's an amazing view of London from The Shard. I wasn't aware of the building and just looked it up. You weren't even near the top. It goes to 95 stories. I see it's scheduled to be officially open next month. I'll expect to see James Bond parachute from it at some point.

Ema, Holy Guacamole senorita you are beautiful, I wouldn't change a thing!
Ema,
I agree with Shan. You don't need to change a thing.
You have a very androgynous look right now.
There are cis woman who would love to have your already feminine look.
Ativan
ema, you look great. i only see a perfectly normal girl in those pics (not that there is any norm like that, but... hopefully you get my point), are you sure you didn't lie about being a guy...?
nice to meet you btw, i haven't visited the forums for a while so i only meet you now. welcome!
Thanks Shan, Ativan and Taka, thanks for the complements you are so sweet, i have to think about my face though, i know i look ok, it is like i can get the beautifoul complement, but i want to get the gorgeous complement, do you know what i mean? for me this face is like my male face and i don´t like it that much, and basically i want a femenine face, but well, through time pass i will decide what i want, thanks everyone!! muaack, ciaoo

Oh Ema, your face is beautiful as it is, don't mess with it!
hahahha Shan not messing with my face would be a difficult task, i am thinking it is part of my GID, so as my body, sometimes because of that i think i am transgender, but then i think about my baby and i realize i´m androgynous, tomorrow is my next session with my therapist, there are lots of things i want to talk about, so i´ll be posting tomorrow again, thank you all for your comments, see you, xoxoxo ciaooo
I'm genuinely curious if I look androgynous or perhaps andro-fem at the least...
At the most I'm wondering if I could pass as female one day...
Here goes...

Note- I need to get my hair styled again...it's a little messy. But I like the length.

Yes. A more androgynous style haircut and with a little makeup, you could pass as female.
If you went full tilt haircut and makeup, I think you'd pass as female without any problems, based on the pics at least.
More feminine glasses would help, also.

Do you know where I can find androgynous hair styles? Something more androgynous and yet feminine...

I like this look :)
Handguns, the ultimate badassed accessory.
This was a little trouble to track down. I'm the one who owns the camera, and it's mine and it's expensive, don't touch it! So despite being completely not camera shy, there aren't many pictures of me laying about that aren't:
a) Group shots (Don't want to post without permission.)
b) Ridiculous candids my shutterbug father took on a holiday. (We don't need me in profile while peeling potatoes.)
c) Engaged in theatrical activity or cosplaying (W/Wigs and Costumes or what have you, not me.)
d) Asleep and drooling.
e) At least 2 years old already.
So here we have Grillmaster Mayo, Summer 2010, asking who gave the photographer permission to use my camera.

Hah cool photo, you're one of us kid! Love your sense of humor, sense of style and your cute looks! I am the Grillmaster here as well. Just got a full coverage apron, I like to use mesquite charcoal in the grill but it can give off small sparks that burn holes in my T shirts. Besides I have a shelf in front of me like you do that seems to catch whatever I am eating, the apron saves me from a lot of angst.
You look very alright. Nice to see you here!
Grilling! We still have snow on the ground here.
I know what you mean about your camera.
A person almost touched mine once.
I haven't seen them since.... ;)
One of these days, I'll have to make a photobucket account.
Ativan

BEAR RIDING!!! Awesome person.

Well, me and a certain Ms. Godiva, prefer riding bare.
@duckfish
I LOVE your hair. Mine does that EXACT thing at that length (it's currently that length), but since my natural colour is black, it looks a LOT less cute, and more didn't-have-time-to-get-ready-in-the-morning messy rather than your on-purpose messy look. ;P

I don't have any recent pictures online, I loathe myself too much to let any newer pictures surface...
I look much more masculine without makeup, believe it or not...
Your face shape is on the masculine side, yes, but the makeup tops it over to female right now.
You also got a pic of yourself without makeup?
(https://www.susans.org/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi1299.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fag80%2FBella_Kohler%2Fa12b3312-7f21-4e1d-ac64-eddebfdbdc88_zps9b434f64.jpg&hash=bbc9fb93a7fe457b6c4fe0b14589582a596ef988)
And yeah, I've also posted this pic in the 'do I pass' thread, but somehow I feel like I'm not passing at all. A few cashiers, someone asking for the way, etc. they all called me 'ma'am' or 'girl' or stuff like that, and it has happened FOUR times now D:
I'm getting pretty frustrated 'cause I don't know what to change, it's just in my face... it has such soft features! :s Getting a different haircut might help, but I love my dreads like babies... ):
So... anyone advice? (or should I ask this in a different topic? I'm not sure, lol)
Erik, did you photoshop your avatar?! If so, good job!
Yeah, I did.
I wish I looked like my avatar IRL, lol ::)
Quote from: Erik Ezrin on May 11, 2013, 02:39:47 AM

Be patient, I'm sure you'll get there someday.
I also saw your pics over in the other thread. You definitely pass, IMO. You have a younger male face, but a male face nonetheless. :) Maybe that's because your face shape somewhat reminds me of my one friend (male). He doesn't grow much facial hair, either, so don't get too hung up on it! ;P

You have very nice eyes. Overall, very feminine. Very alright.

Haha, yeah! And I didn't even change anything but the eyebrows and the beard. It's amazing how much it transforms one's face!
Charlie Ariana, you look great! And very, very alright indeed. :P
Agreed, Charlie, you're a hottie! ;P LOVE your wig! It suits you so well!
Erik you have a very androgynous face. It's cool. Like, I'm wondering if the people who miss-gender you are doing it because they actually think you're female, or because they couldn't figure it out and guessed wrong. I wish my face were more androgynous like yours. Mine is clearly female, and I don't even wear makeup.
Also kudos on the photoshop work.

took this picture nearly a year ago. had to bleach my hair twice to get that color, nice to have think hair when doing that...
sadly my face is the only part of my body that can pass as a person rather than a gender. depending on my hairdo i can look both older and much younger than i am.

You have a nice face Taka, you look sad there though. We have similar eyes though, must be the northern Scandinavian connection. I had to have an upper eyelid lift (blepharoplasty) as I got older. I had my dad's eyes, he said it must come from the fact that Genghis Khan and the mongolian hordes passed through northern Europe centuries ago. ;D I dunno..
i think i'm more tired than sad in that pic. i'm not very photogenic, so it's nearly impossible to get any pics of me where i don't look horrible. this is one of the better pics i've managed to take of myself.
hopefully i won't need to fix my eyelids, that would be so annoying. i'm not sure that it's genghis khan's fault that we have eyes like these, the genes probably got here much earlier. saami is related to languages that are spoken pretty far into siberia, and it is a very old connection.

Good, you shouldn't waste any time worrying about gender, you look adorable and like a totally cis happy gal with your glamor girl shades on. Of course you can post here, it's for us!
@girl you look fierce
Goodness, WOW! Occasionally there are pics of ladies that look a very natural woman in a natural moment and not pre planned posed. You are that, looking like the next door lady! As Shan said Adorable like a happy cis gal. Next for you, You look fabulous thread. Then Just for Us section you should post in the fashions thread I started, as we all have fashions that should be seen.
Jamie
girl you look fierce, I haven't checked the Fashion thread lately, so I will look up your pic. I should post some other of my outfits, been a while. If there is a story to our fashions I like to tell or hear about them. Like some of mine haven't bee purchased even close to where I live.
Love your posts in the threads.
Hugs

ps. just checked, your pic is gone, but I do remember it. Like Devlyn said, I like the shoes too.

So I cut my hair today. I posted a more masculine picture in the 'You Look Badass, Dude' thread, but I also really like this one.

don't tell the dudes I'm wearing makeup in all the pictures I've taken today
Yes. You look alright!
By the way, some acne in your forehead.
In my case, cleaning with toner helped greatly.

I don't generally photograph well but the other day I was headed out for a therapy session and snapped this pic that I thought came out pretty good.

first time in my life that i've relied on a mirror, but i finally understand why people do that.

I'm always checking in for a look-see.
There was a comment a while back that I took offense to.
It triggered some problems that I'm dealing with.
Nothing related to gender, but it was something that was coming on anyways.
Working my way through a CPTSD thing. It's difficult, there's to much to take in about it.
So I just lurk for the most part here lately.
If you use facebook, you can find me there, same name, same old Ativan.

You need 15 posts before you can use the personal messaging utility on the site. At that point you can also modify your forum profile to include an avatar, signature, text, etc. It is a security measure.
You can always send me an email at my email address.

good to know you're lurking at least. i tend to forget even that when a forum is quiet. then i come back just to see that people have missed me.
always weird to realize i'm not invisible. that someone even finds me worth remembering.
I just returned from my ever first trip to Hong Kong. Frankly speaking, once is enough and I am not willing to visit Hong Kong again. But it was any way nice as I traveled with my family. People were kind and it was a very safe place. The water quality in the harbour does not seem to be good, as it is summer. It smells bad. Air conditioning was too strong for us. Except shopping centers, not so much to see around. I missed forests and grasses in my home town.
Me in Hong Kong:

Thanks! Caleb and Shantel, always.
I also have thought that I am far different from most m2f transgender people here in my country. I have a very stable job, do not transition, and get some respect from my students or colleagues regarding academia. It is sometimes difficult to maintain some authority, which people here request me as a male professor. Fortunately young college student here do not care so much about what I wear.
Yes. I think sometimes not transitioning can be better for m2f transgender people, especially those who have wife and children.
After cutting my hair short, it becomes more difficult to pass as a woman, but anyway I can endure it.

i'm pretty sure the only prerequisite for visiting the forest is... wanting some fresh air, feel like going for a walk. looks at least don't matter at all, you'd only make the forest an even more interesting and beautiful place to be.

Quote from: Alice In Genderland on August 17, 2013, 07:01:03 AM
I wasn't allowed to be myself anymore due to my girlfriend wanting me to be more "manly". Happy times. What I have learned, don't change yourself for anyone, love is great but its not worth pretending to be something you're not.
That's one of the first self-realization steps for any trans-person. Once you arrive at that point and those emotional shackles are removed then it's easy to forge ahead with your life as "the real you!"
@ soulfairer
We can have any gender role we want.
Our gender identity is who we are.
Even if you have multiple identities, and even gender roles.
If one of them fits here, it's home.
Not everyone stays here all the time.
There are vacations or better still, adventures and quests.
Life isn't something to stand and stare at, go live it.
Knowing you will always be able to call this place a home.
Ativan
@ alice: that color suits you. what a shame if you stopped wearing it just because it isn't "manly" enough. once upon a time, only men could wear such colors, strong reddish colors were considered too aggressive for a woman.
the fit? wouldn't have bothered anyone if it was a "neutral" color. i like it. anyone who can look good in clothes like that should wear them if they want to.

That was always my biggest gripe about men's color selections, always just blase` earth tones, greys and dark blues...blech! That's when I started shopping in women's tops, they don't have to be all femmy and frilly to look darned good on my androgynous frame. I recently found a seasonal clearance sale in the women's department, scoop-necked ribbed tank tops 97% cotton 3% spandex normally $19 each marked down to $7 each. I bought a dozen in various colors, they will fit in my limited androgynous wardrobe for several years. We don't have to live a drab colorless life!
Quote from: Alice In Genderland on August 17, 2013, 01:24:37 PM
:embarrassed:
No in this case it actually is the fit. Its all girl clothes except for the dress shirt. And that's the problem she had with it. Plus I'm wearing pink nail polish lol not sure if its that noticable.
Yeah it's a bit tight and the cap sleeves are girly, so she wants you to "man" up, but what do you want to do?
What attracts me about androgyny is that it is the truest expression of non-conformity. I recall the hippies, the yuppies, and everything before and after them where people wore their hair and dressed a certain way and claimed to be non-conformists while they struggled to look like each other, it was such a ridiculous assertion to make and I thought what fools human beings are! Androgyny is a pure expression of non-binary, non-conformity and it suits me as an individual. The other part for me is that unlike many, I enjoy catching the double takes through the corner of my eye as other's try to fit me into their mental gender box.

the fit? wouldn't have bothered anyone if it was a "neutral" color. i like it. anyone who can look good in clothes like that should wear them if they want to.
I wear T-shirts that fit that tight. Lots of colors. Also lots of black.
I wear jeans and my camo cargo's pretty loose, although I do have some that are skin tight.
It's hard to find the length that I like without resorting to having larger waist sizes.
I have never had someone comment on the fit, unless it's a compliment of some sort.
Women's T's have a better fit, but generally are spendier than mens.
I see all kinds of men wearing tight shirts. Especially the more muscular show off's.
I see women wearing them loose. Does that seem masculine?
I must be pretty dense. I don't see anything feminine about tight clothes.
Could be, I don't care what people think of what people wear. I don't intentionally dress feminine.
It's Androgynous for the most part, probably more on the masculine side. I just don't really think about it.
I wear them for me, whatever I feel comfortable wearing. Isn't that what we all do?
I suppose I do briefly think about it, but that's like 2 seconds worth of caring about their opinions.
Most of how you look is in your movements or position when sitting or just standing.
That has so much more how people perceive each other.
Wearing a nice fitting dress does little good if you move like a man.
Dressing like a lumberjack won't make you look any more masculine than your movements.
*This sounds like a topic in the making. I don't recall one about it, as far as perceptions go.Most days, it's just whatever is clean and the easiest to reach.
My dress shirts are the same kind of fit.
There is the MN staple of baggy clothes to wear over other clothes in cool or cold weather.
MN is pretty androgynous looking in the winter out in the country. :D

I live in the Pacific Northwest where there is little difference in dress between men and women especially during the Fall, Winter and into Spring. Only during the Summer months do we see the feminine things begin to bloom in halter tops and short-shorts along with the flowers and we wonder, "Oh my, where did she come from?" She had really been there all the time in her jeans, T-shirt, hooded sweatshirt, tennis shoes and maybe a baseball cap. :D ;D

I'm a little further North than you and you definitely see that here too. As soon as the snow melts, doesn't matter if its 33 degrees F, the skirts are coming out.
MN isn't that much different than out there. Pretty much the same thing.

if only that would work. i heard this story from someone who's currently wearing friendship hair, that she and her friends had cut their hair for a wig when a friend got cancer. she had really long hair before that, so after the friend got better, they added together all their hair from the wig and some fake hair to make some really long braids for this girl. she had enough of her own hair to attach the braids to. i think it's really cool that they recycles the dair instead of just throwing it away when it wasn't really needed any more.

I couldn't agree more, it's happening here frequently, and though I think the smaller shorn round heads of genetic females are often times just adorable, I do think the shared hair concept does alleviate the stigma of a woman dealing with chemotherapy and the resultant hair loss.

Figured I could get away with the complement since I'm older than dirt and besides I assume that we're buds by now anyway. Oh, and thanks for the nice complement, I've always been fighting my weight being kind of a chunkmeister, buut since I've put the drinking to rest and my penchant for chocolates and other sweets I expect to see an improvement with a little daily exercise and self control.
Shan, hi sister! I decided to let my hair grow out, yours is almost as long as mine & about the same color too! sounds like editing out some liquids & treats plus exercise you could trim down. Good on you.
In the morning, we went to a nearby coast. One of my students took photo for me.

Taka,
I am a professor in a university here. Students usually do not care what I wear, but other professors worry about it, as my feminine appearance can debase some authority required to teach students. There is no female faculty member at my college while there are a lot in other colleges. Some jokingly introduce me as the only female member in the college, and some students initially recognize me as a female faculty member.
Yesterday, I met professors and students from a university of Japan together with a Japanese consult who officially visited my university. I greeted them, representing my college. We had a seminar and dinner together. The consult and one professor mentioned me as a young professor, but I am actually far older than that. The consult seemed to think I look peculiar, but chatted with me for long time.

you do appear rather female for for someone who supposedly isn't... it's nice to see a teacher who doesn't care too much about the "right" appearances. my own experience is that pink hair did't make any student respect me more or less, it's my attitude that matters. i think it makes the students more open minded and gives them more confidence, to see a person of authority not conform.
it's interesting how they'd worry about a feminine appearance. some of the strictest teachers i've known are women. at my daughter's school, the teacher with most authority is the female principal. she's also the teacher who gets the best results, and her students manage to both hate her for being "too strict" and love her for always being fair. she doesn't play favorites like so many other teachers do.
they're probably just afraid that appearing too feminine will make a "man" seem soft, though.
do you like your job?

As you know well, my observation is that people tend to bring others to justify their argument or taste. Typical examples are "your wife", "your kids", and "your parents". Here no exception, "your students".
Some students who once took my classes warn other students that, despite looking feminine, I am actually too masculine in teaching.
Faculty position is far better here compared with the U.S in terms of income, job stability and social status.

I just can't figure out how to hide the beard shadow.
The beard shadow is caused by unplucked hairs. You may purchase sharp tweezers to completely pluck up the hairs. In my case, I used Tria home laser to reduce the beard hairs, although the manufacturer does not recommend its use for facial hairs. I still have very fine beard hairs, but they are no longer noticeable.

it was that justification thing as well, yes... and it's not only justification, it's also a way to try and force you to change direction by using those you're expected to feel responsible for in order to create this feeling of guilt. i don't like it much.
too masculine in teaching? i think i've seen that style from some women. appearances really can't be trusted, judging a book by the cover isn't always too wise.
and, well. i suspected it might be a good job in those terms. some places teachers are actually respected. but do you like teaching?
I always like the professors who are easy to approach. If I have a hard time in a class and the teacher is not approachable then I often suffer. Most say they are willing to take the time to help their students, but I have had teachers say this and then when I talk to them it seems like I am just wasting their time. For me I care little for the appearance of my teacher if they know the material and I can ask them questions when I have them.
i'm aiming to become that kind of teacher. somewhen in the future... i can't move to the city, so i'll have to find some decentralized classes.
the few students i've had all seem to have liked me at least. one of them, i taught her last time over a year ago, just asked me a question a couple days ago. i must have done something right, or that wouldn't happen.
No it would not have. I still email and visit some of my favorite teachers.

A component of Korean society and tradition is Confucianism that emphasizes education, and people here still respect teachers. This is the same to me. When I visit the school of my kid, I tend to be very careful in my appearance and words.
I did not like teaching so much, but now I have to do. The fall semester just began this week, and I just hope to teach better than the previous semester. Fortunately or not, the number of students taking my classes greatly increased by more than a factor of 3, causing me to worry about the space.

You must be doing something right, Barbie. Students don't sign up for classes in droves when the teacher has a bad reputation.

Little old lady teachers seem to have just as much authority as big hefty male ones. It comes from attitude and experience, like you say.
It's only been three days, but I haven't noticed my gender non-comformity bringing about any change among my students. Though I imagine you're a bit younger and probably somewhat more tuned in to your students' generation.
The sun here is too strong. I ordered a cute crop t-shirt online and tried to wear it.
(https://www.susans.org/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Ffarm4.staticflickr.com%2F3728%2F9621297256_d266299b3c_o.jpg&hash=d8ecfac8147ef3385fae74cb2922ea6522f051c5)
This kind of t-shirt here is very bold even for young girls here.
Anyway, I visited a dermatologist's office in the morning for some skin problem of my hands. Staffs and the doctor there all know who and how old I am. No unusual response. After that, I went to a nearby restaurant to have lunch with my wife, and she took photos for me at home.
After arriving at my office, I took off that t-shirt and wear a plain one. I guess students will not like my wearing the crop t-shirt. A few of them already saw it.

the change isn't really that visible, i think. but i know that many have been encouraged by my changing hair colors. just realizing that someone's appearances has nothing to do with how they are as a person should teach them something they might not have thought about quite yet. like not to judge a book by the cover. just that is a fairly big change in a person.

any teacher who tries to get better at their job is a good teacher the way i see it. there are way too many teachers here in norway who resist change and try their best to only do what they're used to doing. which isn't always enough for their students, but those teachers don't seem to care. your masculine teaching style seems to be attracting more students, or maybe it's your feminine appearance...

Yes. Aging is my concern.
Yesterday, my wife commented that my belly is actually fat and don't be under the illusion that I might be as slim as teen girls. I denied it, anyway.
I heard that a proper way of wearing a crop top is to be matched with high-rise pants. Just ago I purchased high-rise short pants. The size was 26 inch waist, and I thought I can manage it after trying it at the fitting room. Hopefully I will wear them this weekend.
My usual appearance at the campus is like:

Now at my office.
Some of my colleagues initially objected to my wearing short pants in the campus, but nowadays very few mention it. I cite global warming and energy crisis. Actually, our government encourages government employees to wear short pants in summer to save electric energy and reduce carbon dioxide emission.

It is far cooler. A few of my colleagues here wear formal dresses with a neck tie under the strong sun and air temperature > 35 Celsius or >95 Fahrenheit. I usually fix the room temperature at 28 C or 82 F, while others at 22 C or 72 F.
And, today we officially turned off the air conditioner at home. It became suddenly cool, probably influenced by typhoon Kong-Rrey, feeling the autumn, and I worry that I may not have a chance to wear the crop t-shirts with the high rise short pants this year. I hope it will become suddenly hot again.

you should see me when i'm about to melt away at 13 c in spring... i'll wear small clothes at 19 c if there isn't a dress code or other reason for putting on more.
but seriously, barbie, i'm jealous that you can get away with those styles... i need to lose some weight before next summer so nobody can criticize me for wearing whatever i want.

I felt kind of binary today wearing male clothing and yet a chunni for gurdwara so I took a poor selfie when I stopped at Starbucks.

so that's what gives you the binary feeling?
i used to wear a hijab that way in high school. not that i was ever a muslim, but it helped me ward off creeps on the bus. if i knew any people from another religion that uses them, maybe i'd called the scarf something else.

Sorry Taka, I didn't notice your post til now. I meant "non-binary" but missed out on the "non" part while typing (sometimes I think faster than my fingers can type, and when I proof read, I end up just reading what I meant to say instead of what I actually typed).
I am kind of confused by what you meant in the second half of your reply post. ???
@broken. You look great! I don't what to do about the redeye, some cameras have a "redeye" setting. Also, you could try taking the photo in a better lit area and turn the flash off. I think on photobucket you can edit the redeye out as well.

I would be feeling very alright about my pomp/blazer look if I could get this stupid redyellow eye problem fixed! I think it's my specific camera's flash, it is in all my flash photos with this camera but normal red eye removal doesn't work. Does anyone know what to do about that?

(Sorry if I look really evil lol it's not my fault)
Almost all cameras have a red eye flash setting. It gives a momentary rapid flashing that causes your eyes to 'undilate'.
Or get a flash attachment that moves the flash over. Its the back of your eye lighting up, and the yellow is a reflection of light inside your eye.
Brighter settings, with more indirect lighting will also add dimension to the pic. What's wrong with having evil eyes? >:-)

eh, well. i think i also read non-binary... that shawl or whatever i should call it has different names in different religions i think. when i wore something just like what you had in the pic, i'd call i hijab because i know more muslims who wear it that way. if i knew people from another religion who wear it in a similar way, i might have used their word for it.
Yesterday I visited the coast guard near my hometown with students. It was hot, but I had to wear long pants as it was a kind of official visit.

So very attractive Barbie, bet those coast guardsmen had their tongues hanging out! ;D
When I was a child I was kind of chunky and my mother was somewhat style challenged so she used to outfit me in T shirts that had broad stripes that simply accented my tummy, I looked like a bumble bee less the wings, stinger and little antennae! Not a real self esteem builder for a young kid! :D ;D :laugh:

Shantel,
Thanks for comments. I was not in mood to look feminine, but I wore some makeup.
Last week ago, two girl students passed me while wearing the same striped t-shirts. I asked why you girls are wearing the same t-shirt, and they just smiled at me. I am not quite sure whether it is a trend of young girls' fashion for this fall.
Actually I have various striped t-shirts, but some people comment that they look like sailor's or prisoner's uniform.

you might not have been in a mood to look feminine, but i still think you did.
that's a pretty face you're hiding behind the beard.
The last chance to wear the tub top this year.
I went to a nearby beach with my wife and daughter.
I wanted to tan my shoulders, and the result will be out tomorrow morning.

Very pretty as usual Barbie, looks like that thick dark hair is growing back rapidly, wish I had hair like that hon!
@Barbie, two Beauties, you & the setting. Nice to feel the warmth of the sun on your shoulders. I remember a post a long time ago & you think your wife threw out a tube top you had because she didn't like you wearing one. Looks like she has come around. Seems like you have a winning day.
I'm going to miss the warm days in my area, down to a precious few now. We had a long winter that barely had a spring & led into a cool slow start to summer and not a lot of hot days, but lots of sun for tanning. Going to miss summer, last day officially.
Enjoy
Jamie
Thanks Shan and Jamie for your encouraging comments.
Yes. I miss my long hair. The tube top does not fit well with my short hair.
Unlike the mainland Korea, coastal waters here are still warm, and I saw many people playing and swimming in the water. The beach is not well known to the mainland or other countries, but yesterday it looked like one in Florida or Canada rather than Korea, because more than half of people in the beach were foreigners. They occupied most of restaurants and bars there at night. I guess most of them were from the U.S. or Canada, as many native English speakers come to Korea to teach English. For example: http://nadefagus.blogspot.kr/2012/08/jeju-hamdeok-beach.html
My wife did not object to my wearing the tube top. My little daughter usually coaches my clothes, but neither she did say anything about the top. I guess the black color made them think it is rather conservative.
Jamie, I will visit Nanaimo in the middle of October, hoping to see some beaches and run around parks there.

You fit right in there now as far as I can tell, and to be honest at this point I'm not sure what your birth gender is in spite of my educated eye because of your delicate facial features, specifically mouth and nose, so it was with a little trepidation when I posted my first response not wishing to step on your toes.

longer hair might look good on you.

I'm constantly growing out my hair because I'm constantly making mistakes when shaving it, so I have to grow out a patch here or there and ARGH. The good thing about hair is that it always grows back. ;)

But the bad thing that they grow so slow. :) Its passed almost 3 months since my short haircut and its all I've got.
Well I don't know how short your "short hair-cut" was, but I know that when I shave the sides of my head with a Bic TO THE SKIN (soft as a baby's po-po), I have a very fuzzy head a week later. I heard somewhere that hair grows about an inch per month, so I guess there's not much to expect after only three months. I'm pretty sure there are natural/herbal supplements that boost hair growth, though. Might want to look into it if you're in a hurry for longer locks. ;)

Hm, interesting. Never heard about. Need to make some research on this matter. )
Granted I more than likely look more like an tomboy in this pic. But I am hoping to start appearing more male, my dominant gender. Or at the very least more in between genders.

nice hair! i haven't tried that color yet, maybe i should.
I just returned from my first trip to Taipei, Taiwan. It takes just 1 hour and 50 minutes from my home town. It was hot and humid like a typical summer day here. Air pollution from auto bicycles there was a problem for me, but one day I ran along the city called Keelung. People were very kind. I missed the clean air of my hometown, and finally now I am inhaling it.

Taiwan has an interesting history. In an earlier lifetime when I was 19 or so I parachuted into a sugar cane field outside of Kaohsiung and spent time in the surrounding countryside camping out in a peanut patch under a big reclining Buddha. I had photos of myself taken with Taiwanese soldiers back in 1965. That country has changed dramatically since those days. Nice photos Barbie Doll, you look just darling as usual hon!
nice barbie... you could compete with plastic.
taiwan has some good literature for girls. i've read a couple manhuas about girls who can actually stand up for themselves. i don't see that too often in korean manhwa.
Shantel, thanks for the comment.
In 1965, I was just one-year old, and my country was extremely poor, partly due to the Korean war. They proposed to send 100 thousand soldiers to S. Korea to fight against N. Korea just after the war break, but it was rejected. Anyway the relationship between the two countries have always been nice. However, Taiwanese got upset when S. Korea started diplomatic relations with PR China in 1992. But I heard that Korean TV dramas have been popular there, and many tourists visit each country. In the hotel I stayed at, more than half of guests were actually Korean visitors. People always recognized me as Taiwanese, speaking to me in Chinese.
Taka,
Although Korea has been officially a patriarchal society, men tried hard to control women. They were defiant and liked to engage in politics. Nowadays, wives have more power than husbands at home , as usually women manage household economy. Husbands are just a kind of money-earning robot, including me.
Regarding girls standing up for themselves, there is a famous TV drama series titled "Dae Jang Geum", which were broadcast throughout Asia. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dae_Jang_Geum
It is a very addictive series, and the main character is a women, Jang Geum. I also watched it about several years ago. My hometown has several filming locations for that series, where foreign visitors, especially from China, like to visit.
Remember that the president of S. Korea is a woman. Taiwan or Japan never had a female president or prime minister.
barbie~~
but that's historical, those can be good at times (i'll watch if i can find english subtitles).
have you ever tried reading any manhwa by hwang mi ri? those are horrible, but what i find even worse is how much young women seem to like them. all start out with some strong female character who just has to turn all weak for the sole reason of giving the male lead an opportunity to save her. of course, the male lead is also usually a real jerk, but the girl always chooses him over the good guy who also loves her. i'm not sure what that teaches girls about the workings of romance. i avoid reading 50 shades because i've heard that one is also very unrealistic about a horrible guy's ability to change.
not that i think korea isn't doing better at gender equality.
despite many bad printed manhwas, i've read some really good webtoons from your country. my favorites would be these two:

Taka,
Usually adults here do not read manhwa. When I was a kid, I liked reading it. My kids like manhwa and Japanese anime. My eldest son at age 16 is learning Japanese to understand better anime and Japanese culture.
Some girls here have a kind of Cinderella-like mindset: Some day, a prince will suddenly come to and love her. That kind of plot is still popular in some dramas and manhwa, where the prince is changed to a rich and handsome man in the modern version.
A joke says that there are 3 genders in S. Korea. Men, women and Ajumma. Ajumma denotes women at ages between 34-55, particularly those in menopause. They are hard working, usually more aggressive and masculine than men, and tend to speak loudly while traveling abroad. You can easily recognize them: East Asian aged women shouting confidently in the mall or hotel while wearing relatively nice apparel and hand bag. They travel a lot because their kids are already grown up to be in college, freeing them from education duty, and they have a lot of leisure time. No man here dare to confront or argue with them. Actually both young and aged men here tend to look more feminine than Ajumma.

Yes. English-subtitled version is available in Amazon or Netflix:

It seems quite expensive, and I would rather rent the DVDs from Netflix or other online stores.

that would explain why there's such a lack of manhwa for adults. i still recommend those titles that i linked, they're both beautiful stories, not particularly directed at young people. one of them is about being different and constantly having to find a place in an unaccepting society.
in japan there are many mangas for adults, some that i've really enjoyed reading. i wish your son success at learning the language, it shouldn't be too difficult for a korean person as many features are very similar.
and those ajummas really do seem like a species of their own. my mom would probably fit in with them really well.

My inner child when my inner child was outer.
Oooo, I feel like pinching somebody's cheek!
Thanks hope I appear a bit more in between, I know I should more when my binder comes in ;D
that haircut looks like it could be tweaked a little to suit different appearances.
Like a inch or?
yeah, that's what i meant. of course you can cut it shorter as well, but then your tweaking options will change too.
Ahhh ok *hmmm thinks*
I like the T-shirt, that would suit me at times!
I took a picture of myself when I was hungover a few days ago because I thought my bed head looked good... photo didn't really capture it though. :P

You do look hung over and about ready to barf! Bed head never looks good, but overall you look good, no more tequila shots, get well!
Reflection in my patio door, you can't see my face, consider it a favor! :D

i couldn't agree more: people have always told me that i'm always smiling. maybe i am, but it's not consciously. i think i'm addicted to the endorphins released from smiling. at times when i'm upset i'll notice that i haven't been smiling. i'll put on a fake smile, then it turns to a real one, next thing you know i'm back to normal. positive vibes forever!
...but remember, your not doing us a favor by hiding your face -wonderful and positive people like you have beautiful faces, tho i completely understand if you don't want to share... coming from a person who never shares any photos on the forums.. for some reason i thought it necessary for an avatar pic, but that's all you'll find of me!

I have been asked why I don't show my face several times, it's because I require a certain amount of anonymity, not so much from members here but from outsiders who troll websites and forums trying to dig up information on people. I am no longer a member of the workforce so I am not concerned about some HR person digging into my private life anymore, and I'm not a wanted felon or running for political office so I'm not concerned about investigators chasing me down, however I have posted articles on other supposedly secure sites in the past only to see them turn up again on some search engine. That sort of creeps me out and is a big paranoia trigger.
Several years ago I emailed my resume to a claims adjusting organization on the East Coast, in it was a reference to the fact that I had owned a blasting business and had been employed by several large firms to demolish buildings and the like. I was shocked to find that information published on Google along with my address, phone number and a map to my home. I contacted Google and told them to take it down as they were compromising my safety and that of my family. They refused to do that and told me that the organization that had released it would have to make that request. I contacted the claims company and explained how irresponsible their actions had been and they had it down by the end of the day. All I could do was envision some terrorist organization contacting me for explosives. In the interim I received a phone call from some Neo-Nazis from Hayden Lake, Idaho and had to get the FBI involved. I relinquished my licenses following what had happened at the Federal Building in Oklahoma, because I didn't want to be viewed as a potential source of explosives by some terror organization.
Remember anything that you put up on the Internet is there forever! Many women here take their photos down after only a brief time because they intend to live stealth and prefer that their gender issues be kept private. I know it's irritating because some are so pretty and inspirational, but I completely understand their need to do so.
Exactly. I'm not out, and I want as much of that process as possible within my realm of control when it's time for me to do it. Unfortunately, that means my account and posts here are going to remain separate from my "real life".
And speaking of... hey Shan, you mind taking my image out of your post on the last page? Thanks :>

Looking like the moobs are gone big guy!
I am visiting Nanaimo, Canada, and had a chance of running around at yesterday noon.
People here are very friendly and like to speak to strangers.
It is far chillier than my hometown, but anyway enjoyable.

the upper part is getting there. curls and wider than average hips are still feminizing, but... wearing a binder really makes one feel good even despite that.
Hi barbie, I see you are finding your way around. I had a few web sites I was going to post links for you & then lost track of the time you are going. Fall has set in and normal temps are in the low to mid teens Celsius. I think that is what I have seen currently in Victoria, Vancouver & my Toronto weather forecasts. With the mountains there & coastal BC, those moisture laden clouds that cross the Pacific are forced to drop some of that to go over the mountains so it can be rainy in that area.
Hope you are enjoying your Canadiana experience.
Cheers
Jamie

Hi Barbie, you are just about 100 miles North of me there, hope you enjoyed your time there. I noticed how friendly and conversant Canadians usually are and what stood out in my mind most is the civility. They don't try and run over pedestrians in the crosswalks like they do here. Everyone stops and is courteous to pedestrians all the time.

so it's still t-shirt weather there? today it's been snowing here.
It was in the upper teens to 20 C, almost t-shirt weather. Today 13 C and time for jackets. A couple of days with rain mixed in. Probably no snow here until late November or closer to Christmas.
10 c is still t-shirt weather as far as i'm concerned.
gotta be a little stubborn with short summers...
It's not unusual to see people in shorts and a winter jacket while it's snowing in MN.

I was just in that part of the world a couple weekends ago! Not Nanaimo, but Victoria. Everything about it was wonderful and gorgeous and relaxing... a totally different experience than the mainland. I can't wait to spend more time on the island once I get my butt up to Van permanent-like!

http://mjperry.blogspot.com/2011/04/snarky-fashion-rant.html
there were a sister and brother in my grade school who'd wear shorts and t-shirt all year round. it was nearly impossible for the weather to make them wear something like a winter jacket.
i don't worry too much about whether i'm wearing shorts or a not too warm skirt if i'm just going outside for a short while. just wearing a winter jacket will keep me warm if it's not too cold outside. but if i go skiing, i'll wear something very warm on my lower body, and if it gets too hot, i'll take off my jacket and wear only a t-shirt. i think the shorts and winter jacket combination is a result of warmer houses. if you can wear shorts inside the house, laziness will prevent you from changing unless it's too cold outside. from what i hear, in the olden days it was more common to have to wear a wool sweater inside the house, because they didn't keep too high temperatures inside. waste of fuel.
I grew up living in a farm house attic with my brothers. My sisters got bedrooms on the second floor. Me and my brothers would wake up with temps in the low fifties sometimes. Usually it never got warmer than in the sixties for a few months in winter. I was a lot tougher when it came to winter, back then.
After I left home, I worked in tropical weather for a couple years. I never got used to winter again, although that didn't slow me down for years after, for having winter fun. Lots of skiing, and always a few winter camping trips. Some of them in sub zero conditions. Ehh.. you dress with layers to stay warm.
But I hate the cold now. I can't even go for walks along the roads, the ice and packed snow is to slippery and I always twist my knee enough to not be able to walk on it. It's embarrassing to have to call for a ride home. Walking through the snow on the forest trails has the same results. The cold makes all my joints ache.
So I don't go out much in winter anymore, even walking from the house to a warm car, if the sidewalk is icy, I have to take very small steps to avoid injury.
I have an extra heater in my room, next to me while working on my computer. I think about those warm tropical days and nights... and getting a knee replacement. Maybe both, the other one is getting bad now, too. Not quite enough for a replacement, but it will. I don't like the idea of it, but I'll do it to be able to become active once again. I miss skiing, I miss a lot of things because of my knees. It's almost time to get them redone.A bad twist on my better knee will do it. Maybe it will happen this coming winter. Last year I came close enough a few times. I'm getting to old for the pain I endure. It's a little to much, and I hate walking with a cane.
Maybe in a couple more years, I'll be sitting on the beach, basking in the winter sun, once again. I day dream and make plans.
Ativan
After a few years in tropical weather I disembarked the plane in California in the midst of Summer wearing a short sleeved shirt and thought I'd freeze to death. One does get re-aclimatized eventually. Got my left knee replaced four years ago, the pain was a bitch and the only answer was to work the therapy program hard to recover faster. In retrospect, it was well worth it!
Yah, I do acclimate pretty fast. I prefer the hot and humid. I love the feel of the thickness, the viscous feeling of tropical air.
The smell of old vegetation of the forest floors, everything has more vibrant odors. The colors are the same. I feel at home.
There are some new replacement techniques and knees out there. The last four years, I have been enduring this pain.
I'm going to schedule another shot of lube stuff for it this week. I hope it carries me through the winter.
When they took out most of the meniscus I shredded, they looked around and found I haven't had any cartilage in the back of that knee for years.
My other knee doesn't look to good, either. The cartilage is shredding. Once it happens, the pain will push me through any rehab I will need.
It won't be my first time of enduring rehab, I'll be taking my replacements in stride. It's just getting me to do it.
I'm getting tired enough of not being able to do things I used to. I want to run and jump, I want to feel whole again.
I want to be able to run along the beaches and trails. I plan and daydream. It's coming right at me, I see it moving faster each day.
*Hmm... I wonder if I can get my legs a little longer at the same time. :)

Ativan
It was my left knee, so now when I'm lying on my back on the floor with my knees bent and feet on the floor to do crunches I notice that my left knee doesn't come up as high as my right one, meaning that when I have them perfectly parallel that my left thigh is shorter than my right. No wonder my lower back hurts when I walk uphill, my geometry is off. >:( I'd probably be ok if I lived on the side of a hill and only walked in one direction. ;D
Despite cancellation of flight from Nanaimo to Vancouver due to fog, I returned home by the ferry and two Korean Air flights. Thanks girls for greetings from the area.
Canadians really like to talk with anybody. I found some pattern. Men who speaked to me were homless or wanderers; whereas women were beautiful and confident. I do not know the reason.
One young lady was so much memorable. She greeted while taking off the ferry in Horseshoe Bay. At first, I did not not recognize her, but she said she served me at the restaurant during lunch. Yes. She wore old-fashioned skirt and flat shoes, looking so much conservative. She smiled beautifully and chatted with us.
As I carrid 2 bags in my both hands, she tried to give hands to me, but I said I need some balance. She was visiting her brother in Vancouver. She works 3 days per week, studying science and nursery in a graduate school.
I gave her my name card and asked to contact me if ever she visits Korea. Finally she let me know how to take bus and rail to the airport, but I took a cab as I had too much luggage, after saying goodbye.
Other women were also pretty and so much kind, but did not have a chance to listen their life.
I had never met a woman who is so kind to speak to a visitor like me, detailing her life. I dream of meeting her again at some place at any time.
So many beautiful people there in BC!
Barbie~~ (through Galaxy Note2)
So glad you had such a memorable time there Barbie!

Striking! :)
Today my colleagues took some photos for me at a restaurant. I wore the new jacket during the workshop presentation and dinner. The price of jacket is ca. US$100, far better than other cheap ones I have.

Barbie,
I have always thought that women with dark hair and or anything other than a pure white complexion always look just stunning in red. Women with white freckly skin or lighter colored hair don't look nearly as good in red. Just my observation. I have to complement on your style choices, you are always so classy!
Agreed! That coat looks lovely on you Barbie :)

Shantel and Bardoux,
Thanks for compliments. Yes. I love red color in winter. I also have red tights. I may wear red tights under black coat next week when meeting my old friends. Here few women wear red tights, but I will try it.

It became warmer a few days ago, and I wore the red tights (the brand name is Hue) at night while meeting my old friends. Needless to say, everybody looked at me. My friends seemed to like my wearing red tights.

So hey guys,,,I ve been thinking about changing my look into a more emo style or whatever but Im not really sure if it looks masculine or feminine or even if it looks nice...Id appreciate some opinions

I'm the last person that could give you any advice on hair styling, you should go to a salon and pick the brains of some of the women for a style that would be most flattering for your attributes. But I'd say for sure don't hide your darling face and pretty eyes like that!

You look quite nice. I think more feminine hair styles would be better. Probably you can have waved hair. Trial and error will guide you.

ty guys , I guess I ll keep trying things for now,,,I ll try curling my hair for sure...
Anyway I hope that when they get longer they ll get a more feminine feel to them,,,cause now they re not that long so they get awkward XD
Hey everyone!
I was wondering if you guys could help with voice analyzing? Not sure if this is the right thread for it, but my point would have my voice as androgynous as possible.... I've been training for a while but I can't tell how it is XD So if you could, I'd upload a file somewhere for you to listen. If not, can you guide me to the right place?
Thanks! xx

Haha, you seem to take pictures really well! :)
I understand what people are saying about showing your eyes and everything. I have always kind of liked the "slightly covering one eye" look myself tho. I think it's all going to come down to preference :)

Its kinda cool I think but actually I figured out that if I just have them untied and staighten them aright they look better and more feminine...
also if I cover my face like this lot of attention goes to my chin , so by not covering it and by doing a proper eye make up things again get more feminine...to the point where people ask me awkward questions XD
lol as you can see I seem to have given this a lot of thought...still after a few months when I go full time Ill try to dye them bright red or magenta and also get bangs ,,,I guess it ll be better like this,,,
anyway Im finally starting to like the legnth of my hair so its ok really ( hell ive been waiting a whole year for dat )

Definitely you should try real makeup. Above all, the hair style determines 90% of the first impression of a person. You need long hair!

I'll second that Barbie's right and the difference is astounding on you hon!
In speaking of long hair if its dense and lush it will give balance and tip you heavenly in female direction. Growing thin and short hair has a masculine appearance. I think natalie your hair is pretty dense just needs to be longer to give your appappearance to someone with an attractive face. I say emily your pretty and just need longer hair for expression you esnt
Haha, yess!!!
I tried that hair thing that Natalie used :P
So, only one question...
Short? Or long?

Oh...I didn't realize this is the andro section :P there are so many photo threads here that I often end posting on the wrong places...sorry people ;D
Thank you everyone for the inputs! I'm trying to grow my hair longer, but it is taking ages! I also fear that dealing with MPB may have had an impact on the lenght of my frontal hair.... Well, that's why we have wigs available!

Well, it depends on the outcome which You want to achieve :). Since this is andro-section - then the picture on the left IMO clearly depicts a dude who is either playing in a kinda indie rock band or is a big fan of one :). The one on the right... gosh, no, please pick another cut :). You DO look feminine, length is nice, BUT this is definitely NOT Your style :).
Hahaha, yeah....
Thanks for being honest tho!

Looking awesome Aunty Shan. :D
So I know I don't look fem yet, but I've been 'out' to myself for two weeks and this is the first photo I've taken in a while where I don't look like a lumberjack. I bought some more fem/andro clothes. Tight jeans and a woman's top. I wish I had long hair though :( for those who haven't seen me before this is meeee ^_^

I used this site:

I'm sure you'll do fine with HRT, it will help feminizing your face and body a lot!!
Anyway, take a frontal high resolution pic of your face and upload it on the site. Remember to show us the results after :) I'm curious, but I'm sure you'll look like a pretty woman!!

The hoodie is the only boy clothes i have right now.. it's actually women's but I bought it for the size back before I had transitioned and was just living as a cis boy in the first place. Men's are just too big.... Dx

I see what you mean when you say you can't pass as male any more. Hm, I suppose you've had your beard/facial hair and body hair removed with laser/electro? If not it should come back on T but maybe not as thickly or as coarse (going by my own experience). Certainly the shape of your face and quality of your skin will change...maybe shorter hair? Can't remember if you've said you've had SRS, if not some sexual function will return but it will take several months (again, going by personal experience).
@horizonbound looking fab!!! :3

Nah nothing is really permanent but I will need top surgery. I don't particularly want facial hair I think but I don't have much anyway... I never lost any sexual function either but it's not a big thing to me either way.
It sucks, I'd be mostly ok with how I look now if I just got really thin, unfortunately I'm not gonna pass, but, that's ok too I guess, being a boy again is just really for my own sanity (:

I lost a stack of weight when I came of HRT, about two-three stones. Yeah, I became seriously underweight and that was despite eating like a horse. Took several years for that to balance out.

Unfortunately it has always been an uphill battle for me losing weight as a boy, but yeah, on HRT it got especially bad. I have to eat about 1000 calories a day to maintain my weight even if I have binge weeks to help my metabolism. ;-;
I'm so jealous lol... I love eating...

Wow Panda, going back to male is going to be a bit of a challenge. I second what others have said about your eyebrows...I also think that when testosterone kicks back in (assuming you're going off AA's and/or starting testosterone replacement?) your skin will get a bit rougher, which will help. I can see you living as male in the future but I think some of that is going to depend on hormones.
Thanks guys for all your feedback. (:
I'm gonna experiment with my brows and clothes and stuff at some point. I'm trying to get the courage to even stop hormones or present male/andro but it is hard right now. The bf and I basically decided to go open for now and I'm trying to picture who my dating pool even is... lol. I have not had to honestly think about it in a long time. D'=

Actually? You pull your hair backand put on a more boyish shirt, I could actually see a totally cute boy. Even this way, you kind look like an 18th century cabin boy or whatever those younger seamen were called or something xD midshipman..whatever. except the earringss xD

Relax Mickie, the gals are there to sell stuff to customers, they really enjoy selling makeup to born males. The gals that work at department store makeup kiosks love to give you a makeover and send you home with loads of product. They're all nice, very sweet and chatty and usually pretty, it can be lots of fun.
sad panda,
Wouldn't it just be the obvious things? Stop HRT so that your T flows back in to your body, stop shaping your eyebrows, get a male haircut, wear male clothing, etc.
Are you sure you are not ambivalent about detransitioning?
I suppose I don't understand why you don't make the above changes if you actually do desire to detransition. It is pretty simple and logical the steps you need to take.
No disrespect meant, I am just being direct in my response to your request for feedback.

Well gender presentation is not gender identity... if I can i'd like to find a good middleground. But i would at least like to be able to *present* male and not have it become some big thing, even if it's not 100%
Hmmm.. I'm gonna be hinest, it's not easy, either way really... but the fundamental truth is that I am not trans, I am not a girl and I'm only gonna hurt myself by pretending. i can't blame myself for society being wrong. :c
(oh yeah plus T just makes my skin worse. it doesn't necessarily make me pass as a boy anyway but I know i'm being dramatic and all things being stereotypical male I could pass... but it's like, and give up who I am to get there? That is dumb.)
Agreed 100% Sad Panda. I had trouble passing as male in detransition and even though my hair was short it was because of those dernn bangs, everybody thought i was a lezzie. But femininity is apart of me, just like you. I think part of the reason I'm in transition now was because I was pushing myself too hard to be male by the end just so I could pass...ending up with a crew, dressing ways I didn't like to dress, and losing myself in it, ya know? So I had a dysphoria crash because I was trying too hard to look a certain part, that I was denying another part of myself.
It's not so much about 'passing' as one gender or the other..it's about BEING the gender you are but expressing yourself however is most comfortable.
I feel male some days tbh. I've cme to the conclusion I really am just bigender/genderfluid. And you know, I don't pass as one anymore...not that I couldn't if I tried by cutting my hair (id rather die) and stopping hormones, but I don't want to try and I shouldn't have to try. I should be able to keep taking hormones and growing my hair and STILL be able to think of myself as a boy when I want to, even if I look very very feminine.
And, yeah, lately I dress in boys clothes and refer to myself as one sometimes...and no, I don't pass as one, and I've been told that multiple times (even by a random neighbor), but I dont care. My family accepts me, and the people I love accept me...wheter I wanna be a boy, girl, or both. What's more is *I* am starting to accept me, and am okay looking like an elf boy, at best, haha.
But yeah, that's how I see it. You shouldn't sacrifice apart of your identity for another part. You can be feminine and be a boy, masculine and be a girl, etc etc, whatever you want. You can mix and match.

Uh huh. I know why i transitioned... it was mental illness. It was to fill a void. It was to find an identity. It was to be someing for someone else.
How can I get better if I reinforce the decisions i made wrongly when i was less aware? i know they were wrong. Cuz they changed my way of thinking in a very bad way and muted my internal self in preference of a stereotype. That became my everything. some stupid stereotype, not me. I repressd me if it didn't fit. The point is i copied... I stole an identity, I didn't find one inside me.
Problem is i actually AM feminine, I transitioned because I knew it wouldn't be a stretch. I knew I would transition very well. That's why I threw myself into transitioning to fill that hole rather than like, becoming a mormon or something. But, I still didn't do it for the right reasons and it never would gave been a healthy state for me to be in. Cuz to get healthy i have to grow out of the bad ways of thinking that kept me stuck in transition when--and here is the point-- i just didn't want to be. Ofc being female let me explore/get involved in girly ings I liked a lot easier, and just because it's not me to stay trans i don't want to give those up either. .. I just want to be me, and for once in my life i can *truthfully* say that I am not worse for being different. I am not wrong. i still have to live in the real world, but I am not wrong. And abby neither are you. I'm proud of you for you finding where you can be you as well. (:

When I posted this photo in Facebook, all of friends who clicked 'Like' were female. It is strange that no male friend yet clicked 'Like'. For other photos of me, usually male friends click 'Like'.
Yes. I like shoes from Payless. They are affordable, but comfortable to wear and stylish. Strangely, some female friends say that I should not wear such cheap shoes. I can not afford to purchase shoes at > US$100.

When I posted this photo in Facebook, all of friends who clicked 'Like' were female. It is strange that no male friend yet clicked 'Like'. For other photos of me, usually male friends click 'Like'.
Yes. I like shoes from Payless. They are affordable, but comfortable to wear and stylish. Strangely, some female friends say that I should not wear such cheap shoes. I can not afford to purchase shoes at > US$100.

Barbie, you're so friggin cool. You always look amazing and I think it's so cool how you're so comfortable with yourself while not fully transitioning. Just wanted to say that. :D

Lara, Thanks!
Yes. Nowadays I wear skirt while meeting with other families, and I feel it is comfortable both emotionally and physically. In addition, wearing skirt everyday has greatly reduced the occurrence of pimples in my buttocks, as it maximizes ventilation. My kids seem to become more familiar with my wearing skirts, as they complain less. My little daughter is so much playful, raising my skirt to see my underwear.

Getting up early at 4 AM, coming to my office, without face washing. It is Sunday morning, and still chilly a little bit. One-piece dress is so much comfortable, and I can use it as my sleepwear too. And even without underwear panty. I purchased it at Walmart while visiting Hawaii 3 weeks ago.

Loving the glasses, mythy. I don't really see completely circular ones often and I feel like they have more personality than the oval or square ones
I kinda want to put one of me here but I go for so many different looks that I dunno which one I'd even use lol

Thanks! Fortunately, my wife and kids have not yet shown any specially negative reaction.
Waiting for other people's reaction, but I think it will be OK as I look conservative.
It suddenly became chilly today, but I am wearing it anyway.

Great look - love the outfit!! :D

It seems like I wear that hoodie a ton, but it's like all my clothes are female now haha. And it's perfect for boy mode cause it's baggy and can hide my hair. But, yeah, excuse the sniffling and general grossness...not my most glamorous!
How would y'all gender me? Be honest cause I'm genderfluidish and I really don't care either way :D

Well, Sad Panda said that he was hurt by some comments on his female looks. And I really don't want to hurt anyone. But I'm seeing a complete male fail in every way - face, body, voice... I'm sorry hon. :-\
Ohh, I'm not hurt, FA. Sad Panda is identifying as male, so that's why he was hurt, I think. I'm not, I'm more mixed. And I get that a lot like...a neighbor actually recently called me out on 'trying to be a boy'...ohh the irony! Even before, when I was living as a gay male people always thought I was a lezzie, even at LGBT stuff :p
But, yeah I generally present female so it's no worries. It's just..weird, i guess, that it takes a lot of concentrated effort to even pass as a boy. That's good and bad at the same time, I guess xD
@FA
I wasn't really hurt, but I did want to clarify that I thought it was wrong to make comments like:
Quote from: L G on May 06, 2014, 02:20:53 PM
Yeah, as is your boy mode is not a boy mode.
Which are policing... even if they are well intentioned. I just want people to be aware of that, you know? All ya gotta do people, is think about what you are emphasizing... "I would mistake you for a girl" not "that is not boy mode." Easy, right? :)
It's not okay just cuz someone is actually trans either. Just think about it. You wouldn't say that to an unpassable MTF, that they weren't presenting female just because they looked masculine. It takes thinking about these things to not reinforce them.

I agree with this. Cause like when I present as a guy it means I feel like a guy even if I don't look like one. I'm just very genderfluid, but I generally prefer to present female so that's why I'm taking hormoes and growing out my hair. But still. Some days I doo feel more male and it should be okay that I don't necessarily pass that way. Like what about what about pre T transmen? Or non-T. Like it should be...if you identify as something, that's what you are.
But still, I appreciate the other users' intentions and I amm glad that I pass well, at the end, regardless of all the rest, so you thank you guys for giving your honest opinions.

Yeah I'm so sorry to single your post out!!! It's not just you, and I know you didn't mean anything at all by it, it's just something I think people naturally aren't too conscious of. I mean I do it all the time too, I just have to check myself. :)

Sorry i didn;t mean to offend you about your natural voice, i just wanted to say how feminine it sounds (i hope i am wording this right)
Haha you're not offending me at all babe ;) and you must be reaally good at taking pics then cuz everyone I've seen of you is super pretty!
Okay I thought it was a great idea and I would make a video too!! https://www.flickr.com/photos/108831177@N03/14145871723/ that is how I am right now! :) I had a cold but it's mostly my natural voice. I'm not trying to pass as anything so.... just, yep, this is what I'm really like! Sorry it got cut off though.

Okay, honest opinion - if I didn't know who you were, I'd just see and hear 'girl'. But I do also see some androgyny in your looks and voice. And I think you make a beautiful boy or girl. I think you could maybe pass as a boy again, but it'd take work. It probably would involve dressing and doing your hair more 'guyish' and stuff. T would probably help, eventually. Either way, you're a gorgeous, androgynous person just as you are. :)
@Panda: You make a really cute boy. :P Can't really say what other people would assume of you but I like your style. And I also agree with FA
Awkwardish side note, Abby, you kind of look like Anne Hathaway to me? I'm probably biased in not really thinking that's such a bad deal as far as female celebrity comparisons go since she is, after all, My Queen, but idk if I was the only one who thought that (also I will take this opportunity to say, I have no idea what you were going for with your icon, but it is absolutely precious and could easily work both ways if that's what you wanted)
Abby, I am super jealous of what seems to be the Mario on your wall. ;D
Yeah Abby, I'd have to say that at least where you're at right now, I'd gender you female. I don't know what your plans are hormonally, but if you had some more testosterone in you for a while I can see you having an easier time passing as more androgynous male if you wanted to.
and sad panda - having heard your voice I can see you passing as male if you wanted to. It does sound more female, and with some of your appearance you look more female - but as FA said you do have some androgynous features and could pass as male again.
To me both of you seem to be in the position of an early transition FTM. The issue isn't so much the way you present in terms of clothes and behaviour, as it is just your physical features and lack of masculinization which make your actual physical sex appear to be female. Fortunately, if you wish, that could be changed. If not, you both look great the way you are and if you are happy, that's truly all that matters.
Wellll, I'm not so much in the position of an early on FtM because I do plan on continuing to transition. I probably should have mentioned that. I'm a bit fluid in my sense of gender but I am going to keep transitioning. It's just some days I feel like a guy a bit...and then on those days I do feel like an FtM. Partly cuz too, I'm treated like a girl by most people still, at this point. So it's a weird experience of feeling trans either way.
But, yes, Mario! I have an entiree thingy like..all on my wall. Donkey Kong, Peach Mario. And then there's my fluffy pilllow. Haha...I'm so immature...
And thank you Ethereal, I love her! I love that username btw. I love the whole concept of ethereal type beauty. I feel like that's closely tied with androgyny, which I also love. I wish we could live in a gender transcendant world where everyone was androgynous, but then again maybe the most beautiful things are best left the rarest.
But ohhhmigosh SP, so keewtt ^_^ I've never seen a video of you adorabuubles. We still have to meet by the way, it's been so long, now!
Ah OK, I wasn't 100% sure how you were planning on proceeding with the gender stuff. Thanks for the clarification. :)
All those??? Where did you get them? I might consider purchasing for myself. You know, when I actually have money. Which may be never.

Yes! It's like the whole level...like Donkey on one end holding Peach captive and throwing barrels at Mario. Then there's like a whole Atari Astroids one on the other wall haha.
I'm not sure tho! It might have been home depot or the party store here that we got those, I can't remember,tbh. You couldprobably find em online tho.
EDIT:
I should add I'm a major Nintendo fangirl, by the way xD I live for Zelda and if I were to be a boy again Linkwould be my role model for how I would wanna be.
Awww, thanks everyone (: whatever I am I am feeling really happy about all this stuff lately.
@abby Link is so funny. :D my lovespiration from zelda stuff is Ghirahim. He's so... hah, idk.

cool,you look very androgynous and Im sure that if you want to you ll be able to pass even more as a guy ....
so ,eer Im still on the androgynous train I guess... I dont want to look androgynous, at least not that much, but Im kinda stuck...
you guys know I want to look female...but do I at least look alright for now?

Abby,
If I had your looks and was tall and slender like you I think I'd be giving Angrej Pejic some stiff competition as a model in the fashion industry.
Aww, Shan, you're too sweet!
Agreed with Auntie Shan, Abby you are stunning :)
Abby, gotta say, me too. Whew! Gorgeous!
Aww, thanks guys, you're all too sweet!
Hah, you could so be a Cullen though. :3
(sorta venting) Man.. I'm kinda frustrated. It's easy to accept myself as a boy when I look boyish, so why is it hard to accept myself when I don't? I mean for all that courage I gained with mySELF, like, I still had to go talk to people today, and I panicked and reverted right back to presenting like this (http://i.imgur.com/q1bDgDN.jpg). I was feeling self conscious so I went straight to eye makeup. I didn't have any confidence to draw from inside. :(
I'm trying to stick to my beliefs and say, I can still present like that AND be a boy, presentation is not identity, but something inside me is drowning, or like, someone inside me is laughing at myself, blaming me and hating me for not really knowing if it's worse to be invisible (as not normal).. but only for your body, or way too visible and maybe hated just to assert your identity.
I keep trying to act like I know what I want hoping someday I will believe it. :-\
Gender is such a mess :(
@Sad Panda,
"I guess I keep acting like I know what I want hoping I'll believe it"
Such truthh...you're like...my long lost 8th sibling haha.
It's funny, cause I got all dolled up for the first time in a while yesterday, too, and I wasn't sure why I just felt like doing it. And here's the thing I'm realizing...
Like...I think the thing about making sense of our stupid society...it's about finding the gender that's most comfortable for the world to see you as and making that you're dominant presentation. And realize if you decide to keep presenting female that doesn't mean you can't be androgynous or mess with gender or present as a boy (whether you pass or not).
Like..do you want the world to see a boy in you? Or do you secretly still want them to see a girl? Thats the question. I feel like...you still have soome gender identity issues beyond the presentation problems and housing, bf, etc issues that you've been reluctant to recognize.
Anyway, I'm here for you. Genders just a thing. If you can, the best option would be to say F it I'ma wear this and not care what people say and just sorta let go of your internal sense of gender, altogether, which is what I've been trying to do. I'll be like....I'm wearing this outfit or this makeup, and I have boobs and a dick and whatever that makes me I am and whatever people think of me, they can, because I don't care.
So you just kinda have to let go. Recognize the realities of your body. Wear what looks good and say f*ck the rest.
Abby and Panda, I would think one of you was an anomaly, but here you are, two peas in a pod, and you've screwed my mind up about gender more than anybody else. It's a good thing probably, cause it just makes me question assumptions I made about what gender even is, which I didn't even know I was making. I can't even do the easy thing and be dismissive because there are two of you saying the same thing, and you are both rejecting a system which should absolutely be benefitting you if you would simply buy into it, which lends credibility to what you say. Anyway, congrats on making me think, and making my head hurt.
It hurts because of, like growing pains. It's not a bad thing..
Jen,
Yeah, I was really shocked last September when I decided to detransition that Panda was going through the same thing I was at the time...we'd been friends for a while but we both kept those issues a secret.
The funny thing is, the reason my detransition experience was so negative and the reason I decided to retransition was because of the stuff I'm talking about. I felt ostracized even by the LGBT community for being so femme (and I continually passed as female) so I cut my hair to almost a crew and started dressing more butch to fit into those gender roles...and then the whole 'selective service' thing, I couldnt deal. I couldn't handle being a guy cause I kept having this...outdated idea of masculinity forced on me.
But, yeah. The problem is transition isn't necessarily an optimal option either. But it's the most comfortable fit with the way society is, but it's kinda like the lesser of two evils, for me at least. So I try to find ways to make it a little more bearable. But it sucks I have to fit into one side.
But, yeah, I'm glad if you're able to take something away from these convos! Think there are lots more out there like us, they just don't let on or refuse to accept it in themselves.
Thanks guys <3
Yeah Abby. I think we're like.. connected by some wicked fate. I mean there are other people who struggle like us, but with us, it's in legit weird territory, ahah.
It is just this crazy world. It's nice to not be the only one who feels this way though. I feel like, one day, we won't have to feel this, but who knows when that will be.
Y'know I think it's cuz we're ENFJ. I love type stuff and I think it's the extroverted part that makes it so hard. We get feelings and vibes about ourself and what we should be from the external world, which is really gender-difficult. I'm trying to let myself have a little of that I guess more introverted self-acceptance... but hey, it ain't easy.
Oh well. We totally gotta hang out sometime XD
@Emily
Yah I'm trying to have my cake and eat it too but like... sometimes I choke. lol. Heck yah there is indecisiveness. It's just hard when you have this self-image that is always conflicting with your reality, no matter what reality you choose, y'know?
@Jen
It's great that the system actually does benefit you, I mean, in not the most ideal way, but in the sense that you can accept what you do get from it...
But, a lot of people take that and just say, okay, I'm done. I got what I wanted, I'm not gonna try to understand why it could be wrong for other people.
And, you don't do that. You really care. That means so much... if more people could care about problems that don't necessarily affect them, then there would probably be a lot less unnecessary suffering in the world. :S
But yeah, it isn't just me and abby either. I hear this sentiment a lot in various places... this pushback against a bad gender system. Actually, I also hear it from gay guys who feel like they should have been a girl but have no inclination to be trans either.
Yeah, Abby and sad panda, you've given me stuff to think about too. I remember you saying, Abby, that when you went on a dating site as a guy, people were asking you either why you were looking for gay guys (cause they thought you were a girl) or if you were FTM. It makes me think of all the stories I've read of people who are FTM and go on dating sites and people make a bunch of assumptions about them and about their bodies. I imagine people were making similar assumptions about your proclivities and your body, but in reality, they had no idea what they were talking about.
In the case of sad panda, I was thinking about what you said about how it's hurtful when people say your boy mode isn't a boy mode, or something along those lines. I can remember before I started treatment, I looked female, no question about it. If I told people I wasn't a girl, or that I was a guy, they either were extremely confused or they knew enough about FTMs to go on and tell me how I should feel about being a girl and so on and so forth. It was very frustrating to have people make those assumptions about me, and using my appearance as an excuse to not take who I am seriously. I imagine it's harder in your case, because at least from your presentation, you seem to enjoy things that society considers to be more "feminine" but you don't want to give them up just because you're a guy. Which is totally understandable! Why should you have to compromise who you are and what you like?
And I can't blame the people who made those assumptions about me way back when...because up until I saw you two, and read your stories, I probably would have thought the same if I saw someone who looked as female as myself saying they were a guy. I'd think "ok, trans guy, dude you've got to start T already."
I obviously can't claim to understand the processes either of you are going through (since you're both taking slightly different approaches to yourselves too), but it's definitely encouraged me to think more about my own assumptions that I make. Which is saying a lot, because I really thought I was past the point of making assumptions about others' feelings and about their bodies, based on their appearance. I guess I wasn't fully there yet.
Love you two :). And Birkin I always feel like you say things I connect with :).

Sure :) if you want to make it. I'm actually about to go to sleep lol, my head is fuzzy. But I would love to talk about it more later.
Oh and awww... love ya jen! *big hugzzz*
On a side note, Jens such a sweet and good person..
But Ethereal, yeah we should! I feel like there's a loot more people like us out there but there aren't many spaces for us to sort of...find whats right for us. And we end up getting shooed into what seems like the closest fit.
A grumpy old person checking in! :D

Gee that's kind of you, thanks! After 20 years on HRT I seem to be getting this matronly looking body (ugh)
You are so right on your second comment though.
Been getting varied gendering responses from people and wondering, do I look androgynous?

Yes very much so at this point! I like your super curly hair.
I haven't posted in this thread for awhile. It was getting to much like the 'You Look Fabulous' threads that leave those who aren't behind.
It seems to have gotten back on track, although there was some drifting there, which is a normal thing around here at times. Used to be all the time.
But I do want to mention that this isn't a contest here as much as it is support for those who wish to ask how they're doing.
The title is a Pica classic of tongue in cheek answer to the you look fabulous threads.
I don't think there is a way of doing that without coming off all wrong for quite a few people.
There isn't as much of a need to be the best looking as there is to being able to look your own personal best.
Everyone being equal, as there isn't a way of saying you look more androgynous or even more non-binary than the next person.
You're all fabulous. You're all,... alright.
I just looked at the beginning of this and it was just under three years ago that this thread was started.
You are looking, all of you,... Alright. ;)

Thanks, kate, Ashrock and Lala. Yes. It was a memorial forum to remember the victims of the ferry accident, and to initiate organizing a local civil network to contribute to preventing such an absurd tragedy in the future. I had to wear a kind of formal dress, but it was the best I could choose.

Dunno if this picture will actually work and even if it does it's probably sideways but I dunno how to fix that
But yeah this is me actually trying for once, and with somewhat of a hangover to boot so I think I did decent? But today is one of those days where I would really like to be seen as a dude, at least from a ways away... For future reference is there anything I could maybe improve (even though this is a pretty bad selfie)?
Quote from: kate on May 19, 2014, 04:40:47 AM
Hard to tell with the photo at rotated as it is. You look good. Only thing i would say would be the neck chain, it looks somewhat effeminate. Leather straps instead of gold/silver chains i feel give off a more masculine edge. I've got a piece made from thread wrapped around a precious stone, black turmeline, looks like a long black shard and has some great properties.
Yeah, sad thing is it was upright on my phone so I thought for a second that it had worked.
the necklace is actually leather (or some kind of imitation or other animal skin stuff, idk) with a bear charm at the end, I got it in the Canada section of Epcot and kind of accidentally/coincidentally started wearing it to express my gender since I'd originally bought it as an accessory for a male character I play and started to steal his look (since I don't know the first thing about dressing myself as any gender). Looking at the picture now though, I can easily see how it looks like a gold chain. It's actually some kind of tan, fuzzy something and supposedly native-made. The one you've got sounds cool though

Not very androgynous but this is how I look most days.
Looking like one really nice gentle fellow to me! :)

Well there you are, hi Emily!
Yeah, I am kinda back. Different, yet the same :). I am really pushing my boundaries every day and getting away with that :). At least, male drivers tend to give me a road novadays :P.
I am presenting as an invited speaker at a forum. I wore bootcut jeans with 4.5-inch high-heel boots, as the organizer recommended to wear formal dress.

Having no clue what your birth sex is, I can honestly say I'm not sure from this pic xD you have qualitiesfrom both but I'm going to have to guess genetic female? Either way your features are lovely and androgynous and I'm sure you'd look bangin as a man, woman, and everythung outside ad inbetween

Hey everybody! Always been curious, do I look masculine, feminine or androgynous? I always think I'm androgynous because of my baby face :P (I'm 24) The first two were taken over 6 months ago, when I still had long hair. The last one was taken on Sunday :)

I think you look very androgynous :)
The picture with the sweatshirt looks a tad feminine, and some of the others look a bit more masculine, but it looks like you share both masculine and feminine qualities.
Just do you!
Wow, everyone here looks great! :o
I'll have to take some pictures as soon as my binders come in.
On another note: hi, everyone! I never really introduced myself to the non-binary community on here haha

I feel like a creationist looking at a lineup of human precursor skulls.
On first glance I was all like "mas, fem,andro,fem" and then I read Mickie's comment and then I was like "that first one does look feminine....." and then on further inspection I could not place any of them with certainty. You could visually pass for either with very little effort I think. (lucky!) ;)

EchelonHunt - I think you look very androgynous. I think it would probably depend on your clothes for the day, as far as making a call on your gender.
Been a while since I've been in here...
My latest... Just hanging out at work :P

Jay, You are looking very young and still cute despite Your fatigues. Actually, those glasses are "cuting" You up a bit.. Now, that dark blue shirt does mit really help with Your shape as well, because it kinda accentuates Your shoulders. Also, it might be just me, but whenever I see a combination of woodland and denim/dark blue, it makes me cringe...
Now, khaki might work much better and if You would get one of those civilian/hunters vests - not necessary tactical or with MOLLE webbing, but just with lots of pockets, it might add that extra bulk to Your upper body, plus it will make Your shoulders to look a fraction wider. But if You are going for that young boyish look, then You are doing fine :).
But for a tougher look it is a mixture of cajo, khaki, grey, olive and black. And black works fine with most camo schemes :).
I was aiming for an androgynous/boyish look today. I'm not a fashionable person and usually just throw on whatever's around, often resulting in distasteful combinations. With that said, I will try and make use of your advice next time. As for my cute features, I've been trying to minimize them as much as possible. People always think I'm younger than I am, and it's very inconvenient :-\ Thanks again for your advice!

Jay don't let the cute young looking thing get you down, it's really a blessing that you will appreciate as you age and get a lot older. I'm saying this from my guy side of my brain, one guy to another. I always looked like a little boy, even as an adult male and it really pissed me off, I just turned 71 and don't look anywhere near that age, now I'm counting my blessings and am no longer pissed about it.

Yeah, no doubt it will be nice later on down the road. I don't mind it so much right now...it's mostly just when people don't take me seriously or mistake my age because of it that's a bit of a drag. And as much as being called cute and adorable is sweet, I hope that one day I get adjectives that aren't used to describe baby animals come my way.

Yes and no... if I get fixated on some of Your facial features then it feels like femininity is hiding under Your skin.. eyes especially, there is something "girlie" in them... But if I look at Your face as a whole, then it is male leaning andro (not andro by default). Nothing that could not be fixed with longer hair and tamed eyebrows - if You wish that :).
Thanks for the tips!
Also, I tried makeup for the first time...

Those boobs are on the way along with everything else. Like a package sent in the mail from China with the cheapest possible shipping. China is sooooo far but its worth the distance. :)

Neat!
Almost kind of mermaid-esq
OK, maybe this is going to be insensitive, and I apologise in advance if... But, Dread_Faery, I am really not getting who You are :). If You are MAAB then why posting in "alright" thread? I recall You saying that You are female bodied - does that mean that You are FAAB but consider Yourself non-binary? It is just so confusing, especially because You look 101% FAAB (and I am not getting any FtM vibes from You either...). I am terribly sorry if I said something insensitive again, but... I just wanted to know :).
I was MAAB, medically transitioned a few years ago. I consider myself female bodied, but don't identify as a woman and I'm not sure if I fully identify as female. I just feel more at home here than trying to pass myself off as a binary woman. Which as you said I'm more than capable of doing, it just feels like another box to me.
Truthfully I don't rightly know where I sit, but my heart tells me that binary woman is not for me, at this point in time I'm happy to be female and be addressed as she but that might change in time.

Ahh, thanks for clearing this up for me :). And I think I do understand Your feelings and can relate a lot. And You do look gorgeous, btw - but You know that already.
I might just love myself a teensy tiny bit :laugh:
And selfies might be one of my favourite things.
Having read about your journey to the forest I can see similarities between us. I definitely did the whole binary identified thing as it got me what I wanted, which was physical transition, and I certainly wore it like a protective cloak to start with. There's always lots of chatter in the MtF forum about doing feminine things, or sitting like a woman and countless other things like that, and I always had the line that if your were female identified then anything you did was feminine because it was you were doing it. In retrospect I was not really binary pre transition so it makes sense that I wouldn't be post transition. I'm exploring things, I view gender as a purely social construct that we can play with however we choose, it's just trying to figure out where I fit within things given that I was never in any doubt about being female bodied.
I also realised I missed out a don't before the first identify.
OOh, Dread_Faery, I'm loving how you look! The tattoos, make-up, hair-do, wow, wow, wow! I would have never guessed you were MAAB and I am happy you have joined the Non-Binary section. When you speak of identifying binary to get physical transition, I can completely relate to that as I have done that in the past (and will continue to do so).
I have already posted pics of myself before but they were my usual everyday appearance, with no-make-up or wigs involved.
Today, I decided to do something totally different! I decided to play around with make-up for the first time after practicing on and off, and tried on a brown wig which I absolutely love and would like to grow out my hair to the wig's length.
What's the initial impression does everyone get? Feminine, Masculine or just Alright? ;) Very curious!

Barbie - I liked that. Being neat is.. cool :)
My colleague commented my new outfit today (I went to work dressed as in pic, except I went for blue jeans instead of black) - she said that new jacket looks feminine and asked if that was actually male - I said that it should be, because it buttons towards right side but I dont rellly care anymore :).

Dunno, nobody says a thing and pretty much treat me as usual. Though, cases when peeps in male restrooms become slightly confused and double check if door has "M" sign are becoming more often. But they dont say anything, nor even look at me afterwards.

I find that in male restrooms, there is much less chit-chat and loitering. You go in, do your business, and get out. It's highly unlikely that anyone will confront you, but if they do, you can just give them that "what?" look.

Yeah, it is mostly non-verbal language... Once it was like disapproving stare from an older gent, which I simply ignored. Then there was another dude, who was like "Wtf??? Why are You coming outta MY PRECIOUS restroom?" And another guy just turned his head away. But pretty often they would just turn their stare away without even realising who is there - I once was washing my hands at restroom in large shopping mall when two uniformed security guys came in for "nature's call". This is entirely different setting but they made the point not to look at anyone else too... :D.

Actually nobody confronts me. But, my problem is at my campus. All students know who I am, and I have to use men's. While wearing miniskirt and heels, it is difficult to enter men's. Probably I may ask girl students whether I can use women's....

Whoot!!!
Rockin the jacket
@barbie, the rule where I live, my friends told me, the gender you present is the washroom you use. When I dress female I always use the ladies washroom in public places. No asking you just do. As you say all students know who you are, they should know you wouldn't do anything wrong or it would jeopardize your job. You dressed as a Lady can be troublesome going in the men's washroom.
Back on topic as I don't want to move this off topic.

I LOVE MY NEW HAIR. I just keep getting shorter and shorter...one of these days I'll have nothing left. I had waist-length hair until my early 20's.

This is my last post here, but things are alright (just as this thread suggests) and there is no need to worry.

You have similar upper eyelids to mine. As I got older the hooding became more pronounced and eventually I had an upper eyelid blepharoplasty, seemed as if I was standing in a cave looking out in retrospect. Don't worry, it's genetic stuff hon!

I LOVE MY NEW HAIR. I just keep getting shorter and shorter...one of these days I'll have nothing left. I had waist-length hair until my early 20's.
Am I as androgynous as I think I am, or do you all just see a woman? :'(
Pretty androgynous, sort of midway between a teenage emo boy and a tom boi dyke. If we were interacting I'd most likely ask you what your preferred pronouns were :)
Quote from: Shantel on October 31, 2014, 12:13:25 PM
You have similar upper eyelids to mine. As I got older the hooding became more pronounced and eventually I had an upper eyelid blepharoplasty, seemed as if I was standing in a cave looking out in retrospect. Don't worry, it's genetic stuff hon!
i know, you told me...
if only i knew how to kill genes. fixing eyelids seems like such a vain thing to do, but i'll end up doing it if they try to rob me of my vision.
should ask an asian surgeon if it comes to that, wouldn't trust a european with my eye shape. they're the only thing that look indigenous about me.

I thought it was vain initially, but I was almost running over people in the crosswalk because my peripheral vision had been compromised, so my company insurance at the time paid for it as they viewed me as a liability driving their company vehicles. I'm glad I had it done!
Waistcoats make me feel bad ass, and surprisingly femme

Again, lol :D. And a... lamb. Really. Oh well, we little lambs tend to get lost in dark places at times :). But hey, once You get a flamethrower, it becomes hard to be afraid from the dark. Even if You are a soft and meek lamb :D Even small lambs need to know how to take care of themselves :).

Yes it is and you are always welcome here Amber, you're family! Yes your hair style is getting so much better and I'm kind of envious of those like yourself who have such a nice, thick head of healthy looking hair, kudos! Alas I am rather hair challenged at this stage in my life.

thank you Shantel! you always have something kind to say about people and I appreciate it! thanks for making me feel welcome!
some people with male genetics are very lucky with their hair. you look good, amber.
i'm envious of my brother, his hair curls really nice and he looks great with long hair.
my own hair behaves more like a sheep's wool.
which is why i ended up cutting it short on the sides, and today i ended up laughing at how i failed to realize this hairstyle is most commonly called a "mohawk".
i think i wanted it when i was much younger, but never dared ask for it.
and now that i finally got it, i didn't even remember it had a name. it's just a personal preference i found through trying and failing...

I would definitely recommend visiting a hair stylist telling them that you want a more feminine hair style. my hair was an absolute mess before I went. so its worth a shot!
no no. hair stylists always do what i want. that's never been a problem.
it really did take me a lot of hairstyles to figure out what suits me best.
what i have now really is the best for me, as i can't manage to choose between short and long at all.
it's the best compromise ever.
mascara pic. mustache isn't very visible without.

that doesn't look very good at all.

You're hair isn't naturally black though is it? Or was it colored in previous photos?
lots of hairdye. my natural color is some kind of middle or half dark blonde.
i got natural hair on the sides now, because it's too much hassle to keep really short hair an unnatural color.
it's funny how genes work. both my parents have hair that is a dark enough blonde that it looks almost black unless standing beside people with truly black hair. but my hair is nowhere near that dark.
tue blue eye blonde hair mutation just keeps spreading.

I thought so!
Dread_Faery, you look awesome! Makes me miss my dreads too..... :embarrassed:
Taka, you look like a guy in the last pic for sure (the mustache looks good), but andro and good lookin' no matter what.
I got a haircut....would dying it black make me look more femme or more masc?
I'm tired of dying it constantly to keep it redhead colored....figure I might just go with black and let it fade into my natural color....at this point I am read as mtf more often than anything and I prefer that to being read as male, or female. I wish more people understood what non-binary means, but they don't, and this is the world I live in.....
Love you all!

ElioAyla, I like your look. The first thing that came to my mind is Edward Scissorhands.
I hadn't noticed this thread or I wouldn't have posted over in the 'badness' thread.
I'm agender so I don't try to look anything and I have no sense of style. :( Alrighty ...
On the plus side, I have good muscle genetics. Do I look like I've been on T? :D

Thank you! I also bought a flannel shirt in a similar style to the one I'm wearing in that picture. I changed into it when I got home (not the shorts, though, since it wasn't really warm enough outside for shorts). I asked my mom what she thought of it, and she said it really suits me, which was nice because I did feel a bit insecure about wearing something I'd bought in the men's section. :)

I have photobucket -- haven't used it in so long I forgot what it was named. Every other forum online links off phones, like facebite. I look like an old fart, 67, in need of a shave, shoulder length hair, 6 earrings. Local women wear "week-end beach casual" -- North Oregon Coast. That's what we wear, beach sandals, pants, tank top, T shirt, pull-overs/hoodies. This clothing is functional, adapts to changing weather -- and some panache in it once you figure out it's not a prom dress. (I own prom dresses; I don't go out in them.)
Someone related to my starting HRT, asked, "Have you picked out a new name?"
"I'm still Geo., still me. Always have been. I'm not changing who I am. I'm changing how I feel about who I am."
Authentic, integrated, and with seamless continuity . . . "me" . . . Allison has been around forever, but it's a "nom de plume" and a disguise. It's not me, out now!

Most of the cis-girls with whom I am dear pals agree entirely with me.
Quote from: Kimberley Beauregard on June 08, 2015, 06:48:20 AM
Gonna second this.
My mother just passed at 90 yrs. Mom was/is a fashion maven, owned a boutique w/ hand sewn fashions. And so, going through her estate I grabbed a black, Columbia brand polar-fleece, zip front pull-over. Mom's is marked "Men 2x" -- The one I already own is the SAME EXACT PULL-OVER same physical size garment -- only marked "Women 3x".
Just got $50 worth of Senior Discount stuff from GoodWill: Cargo pants/shorts, short sleeve "golf" shirts, hoodies, pull-overs, tank tops . . . and a cotton tier skirt. Cis-woman staff says, "Nice stuff for the wife!" To which I noted, "I'm not married. This stuff is for me."
"You go girl!" and high five. Also, welcomed to try on clothes in the fitting area and not be timid. What's hilarious is that having my fashion background from mom, I show garment details to cis-women that they're not aware of, like fabric, pockets, sleeve setting, cuffs, pleats . . .
NOBODY CARES ! ! !
AND IN FACT MOST PEOPLE I MEET THINK IT'S LIBERATING AND REFRESHING THAT THIS "MAN" KNOWS PRETTY WHEN SHE SEES IT, UNDERSTANDS RUGGED DESIGN TOO!
Women buy and wear men's clothing all the time, ALL THE TIME. Mostly it's more rugged stuff, deeper pockets, fuller/looser cut, heavier fabric. No "gender" in those details!

Can anyone give me tips on looking more androgynous? I was considering a slightly different hairstyle or some makeup.
Hey chaotic! I would say in regards to androgynous looks you're correct that hair plays a big part! Maybe a pixie style or a bob? Iunno? Whateva ya like!
I got to play on the beach.

I am opposite to you. My little daughter always tries my new brand skirts and tops, not to mention makeup cosmetics.

And, my wife also sometimes takes my clothes. Fortunately my foot size is far greater than her.

Hey look, - old grumpy is smiling for a change!
The local church shop is having a sale so I took the opportunity to buy some clothing for my daughter and I. My daughter insisted on taking a photo of me wearing some of my new duds. This is pretty much my chosen non-binary style by the way.

It looks chilly there.
You have a nice daughter!

Yes the weather here is still wet and dreary Barbie, but hopefully by next month it will be better.
Thanks Barbie, my daughter is very good to me and is great company.

I thought it was time to change my avatar too so you all can see wot I really look like.
If you think I look too scary I'll bring back the lady blacksmith ;)
I found a ten year old snapshot of myself taken when I was with some of my women motorcycling friends back in the days when I was still medically permitted to ride a motorcycle.

I identified as a TG woman who was attracted to women back in those days and I had a low level smoldering hate thing going towards the other half of the human race. I don't miss her attitude, but I do miss her ability to ride a big motorcycle the length of the country.

An avatar photo requires smile.
barbie~~
With not being very well at the moment Barbie if I smile I end up looking like an old worn out piano.
Still I'll give it a go and see if I can manage to take a smiling photo that is more or less Ok.
My daughter snapped a photo of me while I was out on the front veranda this afternoon. This is very much non-binary me as this is what I wear (or similar) most of the time.
Contrast this photo with the 10 year old photo of biker girl me posted above.
The way I see it is that I don't have facial hair, I've got boobies and I've got about as much T in my system percentage wise as there is water in the Sahara Desert so I don't have to prove anything.

(The reason I'm probably looking so happy is because I was about to present in "girl mode" to my SO for the very first time - after learning a few makeup tips, she went on to do my hair and even posed for a few pictures with me!)
Great to have that support from your SO Alison-Rose :)
So I dun got me a hair cut

Ah, it might just be the hair + glasses combo, but you look like you'd have the personality of Ayode's character on IT Crowd!
