Transgender expressions

[LordKAT]

Thank You LordKat 

Your welcome dear lady

I do think that smiling is contagious. It reminds me of when I was little and so beautiful Brittani

And what makes you think your not beautiful now?

I know for sure that when I'm feeling passable I'm feeling way more happy than at any other time. It's like I can't help but smile! When I'm forced into boy mode, I'm kind of broody and unhappy. Being a boy is such a... bore (no offense) 

I guess my smile maybe just reflects what I'm feeling inside?

I think I'd agree with you about the smile vs scowl (or at least less smiley). Part of it is that transgenders in either direction do what they can to fit the gender of choice, and consciously or not play out cultural stereotypes. I know for a fact that my mom was always telling my sister to smile and me to straighten my shoulders. Its socially programmed

Of course nobody has to feel obligated. I think in general I should smile more often, en femme or not.  cheers

Well in my case I worry that my eyebrows are too low and the smiling facial expression has them raised, thus I think that smiling dose help me pass abit better in my pictures. Then again I am alot happier when not posing as a male aswell so there is that.

Smile is a gift, smile is a charity, smile is happiness, I like smiling so much and I haven't thought other people like me or not, but give smile to others is my happiness. 

In fact, many people don't like me (because I'm TG), but I always keep smiling to them
