I hear a lot of pre-t trans guys that say they sound like a girl but they really have a pretty androgynous voice but I sound unmistakably like a female. Like, it's really feminine even for a girl. It's just really bad and idk what to do about it. :-\

Don't stress over it too much. A lot of cismen I know have feminine voices too. If you're going for T, that would change pretty quick-like. If not, just work on talking low. The vocal cords are just like any other muscle. Personally, I've been singing lower pitched songs than I'm used to and working from there. I sound like a teen boy but still boy-ish.

Practice, practice, practice.
There are exercises you can do to get more of a "chest" voice as opposed to a mouth or nasal voice. That will make you sound lower. I'd recommend recording yourself when you're practicing, so that you can play it back and see if there were segments of it that were better than others, so you know what you were doing right.
T makes a world of difference.
