Male characteristics you had before transition

[Tossu-sama]

Oh, and most of my life my parents have mentioned how I walk like Donald Duck or a gorilla or something. Several times I got the "walk like a girl!" comment and I always refused because it felt so out of place and unnatural. Basically I've always been walking like a guy with my legs a bit apart. I have a male body language to begin with; sitting, standing and everything.

This.
Although I wasn't told I walk like those, only that I walked differently than women usually do. I've got lot of comments about my general body language, though, how it's very male. I think it helped me to pass until I had to open my mouth. Even if my voice wasn't THAT high, it was enough high to muck up things.

Kinda funny, considering I was around women when growing up and the only men were my grandfather and godfather that I didn't really see that often, and I still managed to learn typical male body language.

I've always tended to be on the more hairy side of things. I actually had a "belly trail" long even before I started transitioning. My legs, arms, hands, feet ect. Only places that weren't were my chest/back/butt area lol
I've also had a semi lower casual voice (but would spike more female when I'm speaking to strangers/being polite) I have horrid posture too. My grandma would constantly nag me to stand straight and I hated it lol.

My body shape though really gives me away. I have the typical hourglass figure still right now, wonder women hips and thighs and butt to boot. So even as my shoulders are expanding a bit more now, it still doesn't help me at all until the whole fat distribution thing kicks in and I loose some weight.

Everything I love about myself, ha... Broad shoulders, thick neck, big palms, hair on my arms, back of my hands, neck, navel, legs, pits, and a lovely little mustache that I've been cultivating. Peach fuzz, but it's still a little patch of hope  I kind of have sideburns, too.
I'm naturally muscular- I have decent biceps and huge legs. There are still a few things to "get off my chest" but hopefully I'll find some solutions. I don't mind the hips so much, but I hate the "lumps of shame." That's a good phrase, lumps of shame. My fiance (a male) says I walk like a man and have the mind of one, and he's getting used to the fact that I don't actually want the body of a woman, but that's a story for a different time, haha

I guess thick eyebrows and a strong jawline if anything.

[KamTheMan]

I'm 6'3, broad-ish shoulders, deep voice, large hands and feet, strong brow line, yet still self-concious as $&@%.

[SparkesE55]

The way i sit, the way i walk, the way i talk, this is beginning to sound like a rap lol. Ive never ever ever ever wanted to do things that even remotely hinted femininity because it just wouldnt interest me.
Also my mother says the way i generally act is the same as my brother not my sister so. Plus for the past 13 years (im 19 BTW) ive never wore any female clothing.

My neck has always been pretty wide. My shoulders have always been broader than my hips. I had pretty hairy shins and underarms even before T. I always had a skinny but an athletic figure (still do). I looked fairly androgynous.

[Jason C]

Nothing except that I'm very hairy (unfortunately none of this hair decided to grow in the facial hair region), really.

[xsmittyx]

I've always been muscular and have fairly broad shoulders. I was being read as male beginning in my teenage years.

[ChrisRokk]

relatively flat chest, minimal hips, broad shoulders, hairiness, good upper body strength, and a low singing voice (although my speaking voice was not particularly low until recently)

[Sir Real]

I've been told I look a lot like my brother.  I'm the same height as my oldest brother and the tallest FAAB in my family by a longshot.  My hips are very small and so is my chest.  My legs are quite hairy. My voice is relatively low...

[Erik Ezrin]

I am really andro in my general appearance. Only my voice is obviously female.
I have an andro face, and a very average length (1,78. I dunno what it's like in the rest of the world, but in the Netherlands, that is average-short for a guy and average-tall for a girl) average feet (41/42 European size) and equal shoulder with to hip with.
The main thing that has always been female about me is my eyebrows (they are nearly absent and also have a typical female curve. It is easy to fix with some dark makeup) and my voice.
The main thing that has always been male about me is the way I carry myself and act.

Oh and my chest. I have a small chest (chesicles). Very happy about it!

Similar to Erik, I'm average short for an American guy and have a large enough frame to wear men's small in most stores pre-T. There's something about my face or something that I've been mistaken for a boy or guy reasonably often for most of my life, even with shoulder length hair. I'm guessing I've got a decent jawline because a guy I met recently who knows I'm trans made a comment that I've got a better jawline than him 

[Satyromania]

Low 2nd to 4th digit ratio
Left handed as a child. Had a playground accident and was forced to use my right hand, so Im pretty ambidexterious.
Deep voice
Adams apple
Hairy
Walk and carry myself as a guy
And good downstairs growt

But I am sadly also extremely short and have a pear bodyshape. Not beause I have big hips, but because I have such small shoulders and ribcage :I

[Ryan55]

idk really, i guess I always had broad shoulders and muscles, everyone would always comment asking if I'm in a sport, and yeah I can be pretty hairy if I don't shave,my voice isnt deep but its not really light either so andro sounding, the way I act and walk and sit is more like a guy

[Erik Ezrin]

Satyromania, yup, I have the digit ratio thing too.

And I have a decent jawline as well, but I also have rather high and prominent cheekbones, which is a feminine feat. But I figure it'll make me a hella sexy guy once on T! harharhar!
