Overly Feminine Woman

[Wild Flower]

I was looking at my body and my worst features are my feet,  my legs, and my shoulders. My feet are size 11 in females, my shoulders are just naturally wide. I can only compensate this with big hips and big butt.... and I need high heels. My head is also large for my frame. My legs are short.... pretty much have a short Kate Winslet body.

I was thinking leg extension surgery for my proportions.... but I love my height (5'6)

So I thought if I had a body similar to this... Ill pass.... itll be more natural looking though.

Well, yes, she certainly looks better than I do.  Given a choice, though, I'd look for a different role model.

That suits her but just because it looks nice does not mean it would make you pass. Think of a role-model close to you and more natural looking and you are more likely to oass, if you do not already.

She looks like she has issues with her legs.

Her boobs look out of proportion too. They definitely look like implants.

Do what you want, be what you want, but I want to look normal.

IMO she looks really fake. Fake is attractive to some people, but is not an image I want.

I want real and authentic. I want to be the authentic me, and not some pretend fantasy.

It was either Andrea James or Melanie Ann Philips who said that people gender you from the neck up. That certainly seems to make sense. You can have big boobs and hips but if you have a masculine face, beard shadow and a deep voice people will probably look to gender you M, or worse, not take you seriously as a woman.

She had fake boobs and overuses corsets.   She's not healthy.  I h
mean she atractive, like cotton candy. But no one wants her for dinner every night.

Too much hourglass imo.
I have seen pictures of women I'd like to look like. And I can't say I pass very well (I'd say I'm questionable at best). But, it doesn't bother me. I'm happy being out as Chelsea. That's all that should matter.

It looks like she did some corset training to get that waist.

This, I think maybe.

Or maybe not... What really sets this one off is her use of flare in the skirt. She does have some crazy nice proportions (almost seems impossible), but the fashion choice is what is greatly amplifying the effect. Turns out, empire waistlines are an amazing style for MtF's- one of the best. For a lot of us who have gone through a male puberty, it creates fullness in the hips extremely well, and especially shows off a slim waistline.

Wild Flower, I would say forget about the leg bone surgeries. Men and women come in all shapes and sizes, and I'm sure that you overlap the two (just like everyone else). If you really can't live without doing the most you can in the hip region (I put myself in this category of desire), about the only thing that is reasonable is fat transfer to the hips. That is, of course, on top of HRT- which also does an incredible amount of body feminization naturally on its own.

The bottom line is that it is an idealized shape that is most likely unrealistic to dream of unless one were to start hormones in the pre-teens. Even then, with female puberty, having a figure like that (without corseting) is still totally idealized. Basically what I'm getting at is that it's not really worth considering a passing issue, as other's have mentioned. I guess it might help, yeah, but it's totally not needed. There is SO much you can do with fashion- especially with HRT.

I have to agree with Jenny. There are some dresses which give me "hips" like a cis woman. When I wear jeans though I'm back to almost male, but my hips are like 39".

I also have a sweater which flares and gives an amazing look, only problem is if I wear it wrong I look like one of those "big booty" girls...
