This is based on how masculine or feminine you feel, or how masculine or feminine you want to be, not how you physically look at the moment.

I voted for FTM 3, because while I do some girly things, I also do manly things and it kinda evens itself out.  I guess I see myself as a gender neutral guy, not afraid to show his feminine side, but not out wearing drag either.

I'm not masculine, I'm not feminine. I just am? *shrug*

You know, I think this poll would be most interesting to be answered by everyone we know and have met irl. Like I think I know what people I know online would say, but I'm curious to see what people that have met my irl think I am. I answered the poll, but I think what we think and how the world sees us would be a really interesting comparison. So, if any of you have met me irl, let me know your thought of ME!

I put 4 but i'm somewhere between 4 and 5. I'm mostly masculine but have a feminine side and have some feminine interests, pre T I hated that part of me but now that i'm more comfortable with myself, i'm fully accepting of my femininity.  :)

I voted 5 but on second thought it really depends on what your views are. I am very masculine but I write poetry. I think a man expressing his anger without hitting things and writing poetry instead makes him more masculine than one who hits things where-as some would say the opposite so I dunno.

I agree, I think that does make you more masculine. Some people seem to think that the more animalistic and uncontrolled a man is, the more masculine he is--stuff like violence, lack of impulse control, or if he's a "player"--but I think the very fact that a man can control his anger, or excess of other emotions, makes him more masculine because he isn't just letting his base instincts run rampant.

MtF 2, because I am feminine,  And have been.  I used to get bullied in school because they thought I was gay.

Much of it is based on my feelings and some of the things I enjoy. I feel feminine quite a bit. I enjoy activities such as cooking and sewing. I want to learn to crochet and knit.  I love being treated and looked upon as a woman.

Hmmm... MtF 2 for me, which seems pretty popular. And I'm basing this on how I interact with others and feel a majority of the time, even though my masculine side still pops up now and again, especially when I'm depressed (though that fortunately happens less and less often nowadays).

Oops, looks like I'm the first 'other'. I feel female, but femininity/masculinity feels irrelevant. And, because I feel female, so does androgyny. That's the best I can say.

Picked FtM 5. I don't think I have any specifically feminine interests and I feel very masculine as far as that goes. Someone mentioned poetry, but I don't consider writing to be a feminine thing. I don't consider the arts to be masculine or feminine or gendered in any way. They just are, and anyone can participate in them without insinuating masculinity or femininity.

I love dresses and pretty stuff, so 1, I guess. Sadly, I don't have much feminine clothing at all yet. This is all still secret. x_x

I don't need to explain a lot, I'm an androgyne and I don't appear to count.

you asked to explain why i chose "other".. i don't know, haven't figured it out yet, but none of the other choices seemed right for my case

I think I'm feminine, but I like some guy things and I can be a little aggressive.

An Asian man is masculine in a different way than a white man.

I'd like to know what you're implying. My brother isn't masculine in a "different" way compared to a white man.
