and more.....

That's odd, I never noticed that about the elbows.  My elbows bend my forearm out to about a 45 degree angle from my thighs, I have to strain a little to touch my thighs.  I think that's inaccurate? But definitely interesting.

Mine were,
3.1 width
7.5 length
7.25 circumference

My hands are on the very bottom of the spectrum on all three measurements for men's hands, I suppose that makes sense because after all I was born a man. I'm 5' 7" tall, medium boned and wear a women's glove size as men's are all too large.
No BS from this gal...meh!

My hands are long and narrow. (Piano player hands) But I am also 5' 11" and skinny

45 = 3.1" (7.87cm)
46 = 7.5" (19.05cm)
47 = 8" (20.32cm)

You can see in my avatar that they are fairly wide hands... probably from playing stringed instruments for the last 43 years.

I was surprised how long my fingers are. Unlike the chart, my index finger is longer than my ring finger, and both index fingers are curved towards my middle finger. If I straighten them out then are even longer. Weird.

Funny how everyone has slightly different hands.

Not girly hands in the least.  lol 

Wow, mine are like 99% percentile in all measurements for men lol.

I don't think they look particularly manly because my fingers are pretty slender, and tbh I don't think people really notice or gender you on your hands much.

I've seen plenty of cis females with big manly looking hands and feet and so far I haven't called even one of them out on it! 

Yeah. I've got Man Hands.  Boo Hoo.          Oh well, they'er not gonna change.

Yup! I try to not let things bother me that I have no ability to change. So yeah my feet/hands and shoulders are bigger than I like but what can I do?

My hands are on the bigger side.. and are a little manly, but the HRT has made the skin softer and shiny so they do have a feminine look to the them

Honey with those nice legs, no-one will be looking at your hands!

That is what I was thinking. xD
Those legs are amazing. However, I just watched an interesting video last night about bioprinting.  The person said possibly within a decade they'll be able to literally print body parts onto your body like an ink printer.  So, don't fret too much!  What's unchange-able now in a few decades might be change-able in the future!  For a fair price I'm sure.

I got:
3.2
7.2
7.3
I always thought my hands were enormous, but I guess not. Today at school I was getting a manicure from a girl who is about my height and build and I was checking her hands out as she was doing it. They were pretty much the same size and mine. Then I looked at a guy who is a few inches shorter than me and his hands looked huge compared to mine.

With muscle loss and skin thinning, you have to consider how those will change them!  HRT definitely helps a lil bit.

I never noticed that either. I just read that old thread and when I put my arms straight down with my palms facing forwards, I couldn't touch my thigh, my stick out at an angle.

 I also read that men's elbows don't bend backwards when you straighten your arm all the way, but mine do quite a bit.

Mine touch my thighs if I do that.

Don't frequently, but I think it can happen.

My hand size are definitely mid-male/xl female.

Other than my flat, rangeless voice, my most masculine feature.  It is quite upsetting.

If I don't have to speak or show my hands, I think I could pass most of the time.

I deffintely have feminine proportioned hands (and feet too) even though I don't have anything on hand to do the measurements with. So even though I have relativly large hands they don't look like due to the proportions. I actually ended up buying the wrong size of gloves a couple of times because I thought my hands were smaller than they actually were.

Hand size for born males can be dramatically different depending on what kind of work and torture the hands have been submitted to. I was in construction most of my working life and early on was something of a brawler, so aside from the usual square palms they are scarred and now arthritic looking.

There are those who were office professionals whose hands still look almost effeminate and pretty from very little abuse.

We don't get any do-overs, so we need to make the best of other assets to draw onlooker attention away from less than attractive hands and feet.
