Posture

[diana-trans]

Hello all, I'm a 38 old trans female, and my question for today is this: after behaving and having full day behaviour as a male, (for 38 years for me [emoji12]), how long did it take for you to imprint/learn a female posture onto yourself?

 It doesn't take long to learn it, the trick is remembering to use it.

I actually try all day,  Male or female mode.  My theory is the more feminine before coming out the less of an issue.  That is my plan of attack. 

When I finally present as female full-time, I want the general statement of "it's about freaking time."

i thought that it came more naturally when the muscle mass comes off.

Pretty much. Not that I'm an expert on moving like a female, but I notice myself taking more feminine postures and such just because it's easier. It's a matter of using skeletal structure to support myself rather than muscle. And for whatever reason it feels really good to have good back/neck posture now, when it was nothing but a bother before; I had absolutely atrocious posture.

That big bump at the base of the neck where the vertebrae stick out a bit got painful a few months into HRT, and once that went away it became a little bump, almost non-existent, and I seemed to straighten out a lot. I think I still need some improvement regarding upper body posture, such as arm and shoulder, but I still have a lot of muscle mass to lose up there as well.

Took me a moment to understand what you were on about, when I think of posture I think more of basic posture as in a person has either good or bad posture

I've always tried to have good posture after learning about it, especially after being involved in a bicycle VS car thing I took to working on and maintaining a good posture on a daily basis

I actually had to learn how to 'act like a man' in younger days and having good posture was a large pat of that

But yes, most men and women tend to stand, walk and generally move differently, I'm lucky in that I've always been perceived as having a rather natural feminine way about me

Naturally I got picked on and made fun of which was bothersome back in the day but now I don't care and if someone comments I just smile and say "Thank you"

My theory is to observe cis women and learn that way. I think if you want feminine posture, just watch theirs. Luckily I have my wife to watch and learn  from, that really helps.

I was mainly raised by my mom and two older sisters during my formative years, this is what I believe to be the reason for my inherent naturally feminine behavior

I wasn't aware of a female posture either... just no slouching.
