Do you like your height and body shape?

[stldrmgrl]

Yes, I am happy with my height/shape.

[umop ap!sdn]

6"1', shoe size 14, got the triangular shape going on (wide shoulders, no hips), just big in general except for my tiny little boobs. I dislike my shape a lot.

[Lynn]

I'm 5'11" and have a shoe size of I think 10-ish (43-44 EU) and not too happy with that, but it could be worse I guess.

As for my overall body shape, my lower body is quite feminine while my upper body is masculine (big chest etc). Hoping HRT will help some there.

[Joanna]

I guess I am happy with some things... bearing in mind I have only been on estrogen for 6 weeks
I take size 7 shoes
I have little hands and I have a small frame small knees, wrists etc etc
I do have broad shoulders though
I have an athletic build with some evenly distributed body fat.
I am 5ft 10"
I have 38" hips
I have 31" waist  - still trying to loose weight here but do not want to risk loosing it from by bum and newly forming breasts.
I have 38" chest.

I am hopeful the HRT will help me more.  I exercise twice a week for 90 mins and do cardio and exercises that build bulk and shape hips, bum and legs.  i am going to reduce it though for a month or so to allow for a bit of weight gain and see where it gravitates to.

OP: You are one inch taller than me and you STILL have a smaller shoe size than I do. That's sad...

Anyway, I suppose I like my bodily proportions. At least somewhat so. Except my feet, I think they're too big. Everything else is okay, though. I have some moderate "hippage" going and a feminine shape to my face. My general body has a feminine frame too, so I can't complain about that. Albeit, it's a "bigger" feminine shape. My family generally have big bones and that has obviously passed on to me.

Oh and I seem to be getting fatter lately... mostly because I eat constantly and then don't exercise. I blame the hormones and my own lazy tendencies. >.>

I'm 5'7. If I were allowed to change 1 thing I'd make myself about 2 inches shorter.

[Marta]

Im surprised at how many people here are shorter than me. There was a time in my life when i wanted to be shorter- middle school mostly, but i really learned to love being 5'7, which is considered tall for a gg. I feel awesome being around other women (and sometimes men) and being taller than them  which is most of the time for the girls that is. Especially wearing tall shoes- it definitely makes me stand out from other girls, ive even been called "statuesque" by some people and honestly that was really awesome i think tall girls are definitely cool

Actually, taller girls are widely considered (widely meaning by a LOT of people) to be "more attractive" than shorter girls. I think it's the legs! It may be a little different for t-women, though, because usually they're trying to move away from the male as far as possible and situate themselves within "female territory". Basically, even though taller women are considered "sexier", it is easier for trans-women to associate something like their height to being GUY!

I do it all the time with plenty of things, so I know what it feels like, but thankfully not with my height. It's actually one of the few things I like about myself -- I have sexier legs!! No, I don't know lol, but I figure the taller I am, the smaller my feet and hands seem. XD

[Forever21Chic]

   I'm ok with it. My height is 5'9, my weight is 146 lb's, my shoe size is 8-8½ women's & i have a small/medium body frame.

  I'd luv to be 2-3 inches shorter but oh well nothing i can do about it. I like to think of my tallness as model height lol. 

[Devlyn]

Yes, I'm 5'5" 116 lbs with very small shoulders, a 30 inch waist and size 8 womens shoes.

... not every woman is little or frilly or skinny or whatever we all come in a different package ...

Sorry for the intrusion, ladies, but this one statement really caught my attention, and I thought I might contribute to it.

I have two sisters - one older, one younger - and both are tall for their age. My older sister - nineteen - is 5'11" around 135 lbs with a size 9.5 in women's shoes. My younger sister - twelve - is almost as tall as I am, only two inches shorter at 5'3", and she will most likely be 5'10" by the time she reaches my age. Her shoe size is 7 in women's and she weighs around 80 lbs (yes, we feed her). Now, both of my sisters are pretty, they may have some attitude issues, but they are beautiful nonethless. Despite this I have no doubt that they wouldn't get as much attention (current for my older sister, future for my younger) without the extra inches.

Being tall is kinda like having blonde hair - it's "exotic". Now, I'm not saying that shorter ladies cannot be beautiful - I myself prefer brunettes  - I'm just saying that height is relative, and it won't make you any more or less of a woman if you have a few more inches than the average female.

[JadeS]

around 5'6 or 5'7,  110-115lb, 15" shoulders, 28" ribcage (not counting boobs), 24" waist, 33" hips, size 9 shoes (womens), overall my frame is pretty small, i guess i'm ok with it. A lot of girls I see outside are either the same size as me or bigger, so i guess i blend in fine.

[justmeinoz]

Apart from "the gronic", pretty much.  I am 6'2" and 200 lb in old (real) measurements.  Like a lot of girls have said  my legs are in pretty good shape, and once the boobs grow a bit more I will very happy. 
I would ideally like to end up looking like the woman with real curves modelling swimwear in the current edition of Cosmo. No idea who she is, but she is absolutely stunning as she doesn't look like a stick-insect.

How much did you guys' waist shrink on HRT? Any before/after measurements?

[stldrmgrl]

3 months in, down 1"

[AmySmiles]

Geesh, you all make me feel huge.

I'm 6'1", weigh ~165 pounds (and losing steadily), and wear size 10.5 women's shoes.  But they don't really make those so I have to find small 11's or they tend to fall off.  39" bust, 33" underbust, 30" waist, and 42" hips.  I keep putting off the tight-lacing I've been meaning to do, but hopefully I can eventually get my waist down to 26" or so, which is the size of my corset.

Hands are pretty normal for a girl my height - the same size as my mom, sister, and grandmother, who are I think 5'9", 5'7" and 5'6" - and feet are not far off for a girl my height either.  One of my coworkers is 5'10" with the same size hands and feet so I'm not alone at least.

I'm happy overall, but I'd certainly give away a couple inches if I could.

[umop ap!sdn]

Don't feel bad Amy - you're not as huge as me.

I don't know what my pre-HRT measurements were but lemme find my tape measure in the coming days and I'll give you my current measurements.

[Heavenlywind]

I feel tiny compared to most of you,  155cm (5'1) about 41-42ish (92-93 lbs). Anyone want to donate some height to me? No I do not like height, my body shape is ok for the most part.

[Carolina1983]

Am I happy with my height? well NO.  But I am happy about one thing. 2yrs ago I was 191cm tall, and now I am 187 .

Big feet and big hands is a big issue for me , but at least many of my female friends and past girlfriends told me that I have very feminine hands and my nails is very female looking.


Skin in the face is a big NO, I am nog happy about it. But at the rest of my body it is even softer than my girlfriends which makes me happy . But she is not that entusiastic about it though.

Otherwise I am pretty happy about my bodyshape. If only my hips and tits would be bigger
