You have a very nice feminine look, but manly also describes attitude as well. And no I am not accusing you of that.

I think you might have Gender Identity Disorder. In my humble opinion, rather than worry about your future relationships, put that on the back burner for now.

What's more important now is whether or not you are comfortable being a woman or would rather be a man instead. Your individual self acceptance and happiness should come first as the relationship chapter later down the road. If you are not happy with yourself, how are you suppose to make your future man happy?

I would recommend talking to some close friends and reading up on some articles with people who dealt with GID as well...Good luck!

Why would you think you're manly looking... because your hair is sort of short? It's not like you've got a buzz-cut, or a fade.
No, that's definitely a feminine haircut, and you don't look manly.

No, no, you look like a girly girl in the photo. What I was talking about is the women out there that do a buzz cut, up off their ears - to me this is typically not necessarily "manly" but it's usually not attractive (weasel words because there are a few faces that it seems to "work" for.

A gal does not have to doll herself up to look feminine. In some ways it's what they look like when *not* dolled up that to me tells the tale.

So, would any guys here date a manly woman?



Besides a sex change being expensive and long i also think that i would have a harder time finding guys willing to date a transgender man than finding a guy willing to date a manly woman. Or am i wrong?
As far as your question, it depends. For example, I just met a woman who owns her own gym and she comes off as if she went through the Marine corps. The thing is, she is sexy and she love men so I would date her in a minute.

On the other hand, there are women who take hormones to become more masculine, and as for myself, I would never date a woman like that.

I think manly woman and butch dykes are disgusting, and I would never date that. The beauty of a woman is in her feminity... If you got issues about wishing you were a guy, just crossdress sometimes imagining this is you as a guy... Like me... I crossdress imagining I am a beautiful woman but it's just a phase and then I revert to normal life of my guy / dude self. Check out my profile pic.

I think the guy with a vagina look is totally freakish and disgusting. Best thing to do is stay your gender as a woman and be as feminine as possible. Have crossdressing / butch moments to let out steam.

I do this with my life... I wish I was a beautiful woman but GOD made me a man so I try my best to live a guy's life but I have crossdressing moments to imagine myself as a beautiful woman. And I don't abuse that by messing around with guys... I'm still straight and like only women!
