My arms are too big to pass? HRT effect on shoulders/arms?

[pebbles]

They look fine really they do they look alot like my sisters arms.

Not begging for attention or pity but mine look like the following :/ Thus usually when talking with somone they will ask eventually.

Answers about what happened...
I got them in the war... Jimmy... JIMMY!! *twitch twitch*
Too much masturbation my arms broke off... It was kinda tricky reattaching them with no arms!


Wanna swap XD

Your arms are nothing to worry about!   Your upper arms are especially feminine.  Mine are still super skinny and have muscle lines whenever I bend them.  This on top of my armspan being 9" longer than I am tall and hands that can reach 15 keys on a full-size piano.

Which is to say I'd kill for your arms. 

Wow! You should take up rock climbing: Long, super-skinny arms are ideal. Don't worry about muscle definition, because most rock climbers don't have particularly much of it. It has to do with endurance, after all, rather than strength.

My experience on HRT is that my arms definitely got smaller. And, yes, weaker, too ... and I became a better rock climber at the same time.

I think the shape of your arms is fine but the t-shirt tan is not a good look on a girl
Your shoulders look paler than your arms which draws the eye to them. A bit of fake tan there would help a lot, I reckon

^I would have shown them off.

Well I suppose I should have   this is just a quickie from this morning,

Only two things in this world truly terrify me: wasps and heights.  Not in that order.    Endurance or no, I'd become a quivering heap of tears about 10 feet off the ground (which is probably when a wasp would start buzzing me, just to make it worse).

Think I'll stick to my piano...

So usually I go out with a jacket on or coat because i'm insecure about the size of my arms. Anyway, today I went out with a dress on that showed my full arms. I also just got new extensions that blend perfectly so my hair looks really good. I also did my makeup really cute today (this was earlier so it looked fresh, it's kinda done with now) Anyway, I went and ran a few errands and everyone was staring at me. I'm pretty sure I was being read left and right. It was wierd because i've been passing so much lateley and randomly felt like I got read today. But then again, Maybe it's cause I was all done up people were staring? I'm really not sure and I'm kinda bummed. Anyway... What was your experience with HRT and the way your shoulders/arms looked after a while? I know that it decreases muscle mass but i'm just wondering if ya'll think i'm hopeless? did anyone have arms relative to mine that looked softer and decreased in size afterwards? I'm kinda stressing about it to be honest..

mine are kind of like yours, except my problem is fat. i think the estrogen/anti androgens took some bulk out of my arm muscles. i never really had any to begin with, but your arms don't look that bad to me. i think they're fine.

I'm afraid to ask! but what is this?




I think your arms look fine they may be bigger then mine but softer I think!

I have 11" flexed and I still think mine look huge! and muscular although where I don't know

I will say though the farmers tan definitely might draw some attention, I still have remnants from last year. UGH

Drippin,
  Your arms aren't that long either.  I see at least 10" from your fingertips to your knee.  I'm 6'2", 36" inseam with long thin gorilla arms.  The distance from my fingertips to my knees is 6"!  Ooka, ooka!  The hair thinned out, they don't look as much of gorilla from the softening of the skin.  Feel better now?

If you think 6" looks like gorilla, try 3"...    During puberty, my arms grew before the rest of me and there are pictures where my fingertips end an inch below my knees.

I think my arms may be the longest of anybody here .  They used to be pretty big too, then they got really skinny on HRT after quite a long time, but now they have become fatter with the rest of my body..

Your arms look fine exactly how they are though, so it shouldn't be an issue anyway

[Rock_chick]

People were staring at you because you are a pretty girl wearing a nice dress. Time to get used to some basic objectification from the male gaze hun.

The bit where they stare at your boobs while simultaniously trying to look like they're not staring at your boobs is quite funny especially if they walk into a lampost (that's not happened but I live in hope)

[vanna]

Yes the boob stare is the ultimate you pass is there is such a word,

one oh my neighbours openly talked to my boobs for like 30 secs before becoming aware i was just frowning at him

[PiperEden]

I think your arms are perfect! they remind me of my little sister's! very feminine I think!

Oh -- I'm completely terrified of heights. Or at least I was, to the point that I couldn't stand near the window in tall buildings because I was afraid I would be sucked out by the power of the vertigo. That's half the point, the battle between your rational mind telling you, "Why worry now? This is sooooo much safer than the drive to the crag was," and your instincts telling you "HOLY CRAP WHAT ARE YOU DOING? GET DOWN THIS INSTANT!!!"

And the cool thing about that part where you turn into a quivering heap of tears (which I've done myself, more than once) is that you just tell your partner to let you down, and you're on the ground a few seconds later. So you learn to trust the system and overcome your fear one little step at a time.

And also, girls who climb are hot! ... and guys too, if, you know, you're into that sort of thing; at least some of them are.

the exact same thing applies to girls who longboard as well

I have bingo wings but I don't care

I'm afraid to ask! but what is this?

That is my right upper arm... Showing the large amount of scar tissue I have similar scarring covers most of my body.

How we all dealt with gender dysphora varies from person to person some drank, some did drugs, others smoked alot... I knew the dangers of those and avoided them but nobody told me about self harm until it was too late.
