Title: What part of yours are conducive to femininity and what parts aren't?
Post by: fionabell on December 22, 2011, 06:57:58 PM
Or at least ones which translate well to femininity

Feminine:

eyes
head size
height of waist and proportion of it.
arse
fat legs
good feet
great multi-tasker
attention to details
instinct to the feelings of those around me(if that is feminine?)
base working of brain.
Nurturing attitude
non-competitive(or at least unable to sustain competition lol)


not as feminine:

average hands(my sisters and mother don't have small hands either)
average voice(I've always spoken in feminine tones but the pitch is the most important)
Logical mind(though built on a feminine outlook)
Not as interested in frivolity as the average female(I.e. Magazines).

Unfeminine:
- Nose
- Overall face shape
- My chin, only when I make certain facial expressions
- A bit of a pot belly (working on getting rid of that lol)
- No boobs or hips
- Adam's apple
- Skeletal, veiny hands and feet
- Hairline
- Overall hair quality (I have super thin old grandma hair)
- The way I move. It's kinda hard to explain. I'm just very awkward and not poised whatsoever.
- Tendency to talk monotonously
- Blank facial expression. I have a very un-expressive face.

Feminine:
- Eyes
- Overall small bone structure
- Underdeveloped muscles. My sister who is cis and two years younger than me has a larger bicep than me and she doesn't even work out.
- Below average shoulder width, even by cis female standards
- Not very much body hair
- Long legs
- Small feet relative to my height (I'm 5'10" and wear a womens' size 8)

For me, (pre-hrt)

Conducive :  Feet (look narrow), somewhat legs too
wrists  and hands (okayish)
forearms
Cheecks (something is making them puffy feminine :)  )
Not very hairy
voice is not super masculine / deep

Overall I'd say I have a small bone structure size, mostly fat and some male muscle bloating me.

Not conducive : Nose (big for a woman, but not truly mannish),
wide Chin shape,
thick brows (too early / too cautious to shape them right now),
Shoulder width / size ( at least compared to the really skinny girls - but I think they are shrinking in time)
Height (under 6 feet by a few inches)



Neither a + or - :
I'm kind of chubby
prone to analytical thinking (but I think that has more to do with education than gender, or maybe hormone levels).
Interested in "feminine" things but have recession /  lack of $$ as an excuse for not pursuing things.

For:

Voice (took hard work tho!)
Height (5'5)
big blue eyes
nose
nice smile
curves (thx hormones!)
never that hairy (on chest,arms or that thick on face)

Work against:

Brow ridge (ugh it's pretty thick)
angular jaw
average lips (not a huge prob but red lipstick makes them look super thin)
slight wide (though nicely arched) feet
poor hair line (in the front back is okay)
super sensitive skin (still shaving after many laser treatments, red bumps galore all the time)
broad shoulders and thick-ish arms (I often buy tops that otherwise fit perfect and look great but are tight in the shoulders)

For what it's worth - I had a GF a good while ago and I could wear all her clothes and shoes and she appeared to be a "typical" girl, but had slightly larger feet (size 8.5-9) and broader shoulders than most girls her size (she was only an inch shorter than me. So I can always say I have IRL proof that I'm not "that far off" hehe.
