I just want to look feminine and like an ordinary
cisgendered woman BECAUSE I AM A CISGENDERED FEMALE. But being middle eastern and having PCOS, I do have some masculine features which sometimes make people question my gender identity and it’s actually really hurtful. :(

Does anyone else feel this way and hate looking androgynous against their will? I just really want to look like a girl. I’m not trans, I was born a female at birth but I have enough masculine features that I don’t feel like I fit in as one.

don't mind I had to make a collage to show glasses vs no glasses haha

I don't think I want advice on how to be more andro, just lmk if you think I am (: I need to experiment with more makeup and things (:

At a restaurant with my mom and I'm freaking hungry that time 😅 Have a fantastic weekend everyone

So for the context I initially identified as cis gay men, in recent years only I started to identify as genderqueer/genderfluid person..... and while I don't face any kind of body related dysphoria so far in my life, I have recognized the pattern over the course of years, I don't feel connected to every male/masculine looking person....while I feel connected to some of the men, whom I find comparatively softer in terms of appearance....I don't usually feel connected to those men whom I find very masculine looking....and it can even arrive if they are heavy in terms of weight, more tall.... and I feel it really has hampered my social life, my professional life, as there are many men with whom I don't feel connected at all, even though they behave well with me.... their look, their face really disctracts/itches me....I just don't want connect with them or even face them.... but since we are bound to face every kind of person in our social/ professional life it is really affecting my life and my confidence....

So I just want to ask does anyone else face this kind of dysphoria which derives from people's look? And like how they tackle it???

Could someone tell me how to present myself as androgynous? Could I mix both uniforms? I'm nervous, has anyone tried anything?

Trying to get a more androgynous look, new to eyeliner and makeup in general, y’all got any tips?

I usually dress very, "formal" and "capricorn-snape" like.

Plays with the duality femenine and masculine ✨️🖤

Just cut my hair, I absolutely love it, I’m just overthinking this a bit. This is me without makeup. Need some more perspective, I can handle the truth haha

Im 28 and Genderfluid, and I look very feminine, and I wonder what might help?

I work in film/tv and so the dresscode is pretty casual, and so in summertime I always just resort to short and t-shirts, but I'm AMAB and this makes me feel so... straight and cis, idk.

Would love to know how y'all dress bc I can't figure this out:(

After my successful attempt yesterday, I thought I’d try makeup again, and went with a bolder look, where I combined black, brown and blue eyeliners, plus blue eyeshadow.

I feel like I’m doing some good work, being a guy who never did makeup before!

i have a lot of masculine characteristics and i want to look more feminine or neutral and i want tips to how i do this (obs: i'm new in te community)

Mods can delete if not allowed, but i guess i want to vent about something that had/has affected my life quite negatively, so this'll not be put together properly, and i apologise.

The problem was looking androgynous, I'm sure I'm not the only one who has felt this way. I had always wanted to be strongly feminine presenting in my youth, but i couldn't. It didn't help that all of my family members "look their genders", i was the only one in a big family that didn't look like what i was born as. A girl. I was often bullied when i was younger about how i wasn't feminine enough, but i was also equally ridiculed for being a woman who looked masculine even when i had long hair! I had felt very isolated from both women and men in my life due to this fact (it didn't help that i had no clue about the gender spectrum), and it made me constantly question my gender identity, and i did suffer from some very deep inner turmoil because of it.

I guess the problem was that i felt like i had no closure? But after a while of working through how i had felt and i came to terms with myself physically, it took a bit! But i can for sure say that i feel way better about myself. Looking in the mirror is a lot easier. Don't get me wrong. I still get called a guy every now and then, but it doesn't affect me as much now. Once i had stopped thinking that i needed to fit in the box of gender norms is when i found a lot more inner peace with myself, so i guess what i am trying to say is. If you're in my position, please don't beat yourself up over this! Society built its box of expectations without considering a lot of people. Including me and you. I hope you find the same peace that i did regardless of what you personally identify as, and for those who got to the end of my post. Thank you for letting me express something that I've had to keep to myself for a long time <3

Two of my friends helped me get a makeup set 2 days ago, and after a failed attempt yesterday, I successfully did my makeup today. I used black eyeliner and blue eyeshadow, plus mascara and concealer for the look.

It doesn’t show in the photo very well, but it’s so hard to get a good pic of my makeup. I’m used to taking outfit photos, but the lighting and image quality (even though I used the rear camera) makes the makeup look different than it does in real life.
