i noticed a lot of feminine type things i'm not really good at that cis women are really good at, i'm not really good at feeling emotion for other people, (especially other women) for example, a home girl of mine recently broke up with her boyfriend and roxanne, myself, and her were in her room, i was listening to roxanne try to calm her down and i just sat there and couldn't stop laughing because she was whining and crying into a cup and it was making an echoey noise and just looked like a sloppy mess with her hair a hella mess and just disheveled (which i found really amusing) for the most part, i think a lot of things that women ( ALL women)  cry and b*tch about really dumb stuff, so in that sense, i do come off a little cold, for the most part, i'm just like, get over it, i feel like i have more patience though than a lot of women, if my boyfriend goes out with his friends for a night, i'm not really at his neck about it since i'm not the jealous type  and like how a lot of women hate when their boyfriends play video games a lot, i don't really mind, i really enjoy watching him play games, especially because we're both gamers, but what sort of feminine qualities do you lack? jw if i'm the only one who noticed this

I have pretty bad handwriting.. I notice most girls have really good hand writing.

Thats kind of it.. though it has gotten moar pretty on HRT.


I.. don't think I'd laugh in that situation.. And usually when I do giggle a little it makes things a bit more cheery.

i always had bad writing too, i'm better at typing on computers, i honestly don't even know how to write in cursive :/ but yes, it was her reaction what had me laughing, not that she was sad, just so over the top

I do not get "frightened" or "freak out" or "scared".... by spiders, bugs, animals, darkness, strange places, or people...

well spiders and bugs are another story, i can't stand them lol. i love horror movies, and find people who are "scared" of them, annoying and i'm just like, it's just a movie for chr*st sake

Lets see...

Yes, bad handwriting is one. But I'm working on it.

And still getting used to idle chitchat with strangers in bathroom & other queues.

Females tend to be more empathetic than males... so yeah, that is one of the reasons women think that most males are jerks when it comes to emotional situations...


How long how you being taking estrogen?

My voice needs epic work. I am an actor/singer so I have training on my side... my baritone works against me. Also, I just feel dumb, trying to sound like myself and failing, so I am in limbo, using my resonant chest voice. It is something I want to move past and perfect. I fear surgery but am really considering it. I would love to go to Korea... but really I want a passing voice while still being able to pull out a mean Tom Waits on karaoke night.

After being in a huge group of women for years now, I can certifiably say that there are no such things as universal feminine aspects. Every woman is her own thing, including me.

When it comes to being a woman in a group of women, it took some work to get all the cues and conventions down but, after a little while, you're just one of the girls.

my handwriting is horrible. I am not so bad for feeling other peoples feelings but I could be better at it.

Not to overgeneralize, but women in western society are often socialized to default to indirect communication and to build rapport through phatic communication (small talk). I neither do nor get these practices. Even as guys go, I'm pretty clipped, direct, and easily bored by extraneous chat.

OMG, my handwriting is so terrible.  I didn't know girls were supposed to write neatly.  I hope I don't get dysphoric when I write stuff now!

My voice is umm, a work in progress.

Other than that, it all came naturally.  I sucked pretty hard at the forced masculinity game anyway and I had to give that fake front the boot permanently.  I just couldn't bear to do it another day.  Forcing myself to act, walk and sit like a dudely dude every day was gradually eating away at my soul.

i always had a pretty feminine voice, never really had disphoria about things except little things, but hormones have effected them so far so nothing now

I used to suck at handwriting too.. I found though when I slow down it gets a lot better. And now I like to make things more curved than spikey (like M's and W's especially).

I mean I still suck at it pretty bad, unless it's cursive we're talking about ;)

Oh and another thing I suck at is eating small portions. I love to eat eat eat.
