Masculine Physical Characteristics?

Post Reply New Topic

"Shopaholic".......... There's certainly no gender ambiguity with a user name like that now is there?
Why do women like to shop so much?

Oh, but I don't spend hours and hours in clothes shops with my "best mate" like most women - I am usually buying books/manga/DVD's, and I hunt alone.

Just as likely to be a few clicks with the mouse at Amazon!

I rarely like to shop, BTW. Also, I tried dressing like a boy when I was about thirteen, and I couldn't fool anyone. Too curvaceous, I guess. Definitely look feminine, but masculine brain all the way. Jarring for some.

There's no way my body could be mistaken for a guy in my opinion, but I had a friend in college who said she would mistake me for a guy from the back (she wasn't trying to be mean). I don't have delicate features, with a square jaw and solid body structure (but fairly curvy now so I don't think I could pass). Also, at that time I apparently didn't dress in a feminine way (jeans, teeshirt, no makeup). I have since added more "feminine" garb to my wardrobe and decided to allow pink, which I previously rejected, because it looks good with my skin tone, so that may have helped. I am told that I walk like a man, (galumphing, moving my shoulders too much, too long of a stride). Most people who talk to me online think I am a guy also, in fact some people have refused to believe that I am not.

Hmm....

More musculature than is normative for a woman.
I pretty much carved myself a waistline, from years of wearing jeans that were tight in the middle. Without that, I probably would have gone through life looking like I was perpetually in the second trimester of a pregnancy.
Breasts? 36D. No complaints there.
Hips? Rounded, yes.
I wear my hair long, and don't see that changing.
The distribution of hair is normal for a female. The only "hair" thing which irritates me is that I inherited my father's heavy eyebrows. This is not a male/female thing so much as an unlucky throw of the genetic dice, and I take care of that with tweezers.
My ring finger is longer than my pointer finger.

I'm never mistaken for a male from the back, front, or side, but I'm told that the sight of me does bring a pale version of Xena to mind. lol

I have broader shoulders than most women in my size range (petite), but aside from a mini- beard, I don't have that many other traits. I have almost never felt truly female, and if there was a simple and painless way to switch to male, I would have no regrets.
I consider my physical self to be nothing more than a liability and a temporary inconvenience until I re-incarnate. I don't exactly hate my body, I just wish I'd gotten one that matched my inside. Oh well.

I look more like a baby than anything, with my soft, round body. Something like that little character that I love, so much.

Other than having the male index/ring finger ratio I look really girly, but I act really manish sometimes. I have a really masculine walk and my voice is pretty low.

I have hairier arms then my male friends. My genes come from a cold climate though... my excuse.

I definitely have some male physical characteristics, though I still look pretty female. Let's see... I'm taller than most women, even adults. I have broad shoulders, too, and I think I have the male index-finger-to-ring-finger ratio, though it might only be on one hand. And my limbs are so hairy that I never wear t-shirts or shorts, even in July and August. Shaving, waxing, scissors, and manual pulling have all failed.

But the most male thing about me is my voice. I have a speaking voice like Annie Lennox, and can sing much lower. I'm a proud female tenor - I'm singing along to a baritone-ranged song right now! It's been like that since I was a baby. I remember the awe on people's faces when they walked into my preschool and heard an adult male rumble from a little blonde toddler girl

I used to have a deep voice and I was rather hairy, and sometimes had rough hair or fingernails. I also had a male sort of mind.

Ummm...I have huge feet and hands (and therefore only wear "practical" men's shoes), very broad shoulders, long arms...I think that's it. Women's, Misses', Juniors', Men's...I don't fit into any category of clothing. I'm not really feminine or masculine.

Looking at me from behind I can pass as a bloke - 6' tall, shoulders wider than hips, little bum like a man's and unladylike muscles in my back and arms.

From the front and at a distance, I've been mistaken for a bloke, especially when I've been well-wrapped up so the shape of my boobs doesn't show.

My jawline's quite strong and not very dainty, and my hands are large for a woman, but when I put on a skirt and high heels my legs look very feminine, long and slender.

Finding clothes that fit and look okay is a problem as I'm too skinny for a lot of menswear, and too long/tall for most womenswear.

I have an hourglass figure that I can't really hide, but there is something vaguely masculine about my face. I have a biggish head too, althugh it looks like my facial freatures (small eyes, small mouth, small chin) where intended for a smaller head, except my nose, which unfortunately is more masculine (one day - rhinoplasty, seriously). Also my pose tends to be a little more masculine.

I am a bit mascular - an athletic build, but I don't see it as masculine. Maybe others do. It's because of my muscle tone I can't wear most pettite clothes, although I'm otherwise small enough. I have very small hands and feet but they'r also broad, so they aren't exactly dainty.

k, I came late to this one..

What is just lovely, physically, normal?

You mean pretty, frail, and subservient dont you....

I am georgeous, strong, and subservient.
(actually I'm more of a broken down old bag, but 10 years back... )

My tactile nature and need to take care of my self when the all powerful ego filled male is not around leaves me VERY muscularly attuned.

This makes men of weak character-uncomfortable; and those with inferiority complex-unbearable.
Especially when they are goaded on by their peers comments about having a muscularly strong women.

This just means I can only safely mate with someone who is either very secure or a goliath in size to me proving an excellence in male to female match.

Nothing masculine about the way I look. I look extremely feminine actually. I think it throws people when I open my mouth. I just had a guy from India (who I work with and have never actually met) say "I bet you grew up around all men. You think like a man and you get all the jokes we men tell, but you don't understand anything women understand." Well, there you go. I guess it even crosses cultures. Now when he meets me, he'll be shocked. He'll say something like, "You don't look anything like I thought."
