A Question About A Persons Body


Guest Brongo

Recommended Posts

  • Admin

Are you asking if its helpful to be an MtF with a small body?

Being 5'3" tall myself, with a man's shoe size of 6 1/2, I would say, unequivocally, YES! :lol:

It's fun shopping in the petite section.

Not to say that my taller sisters aren't doing well; its just a little easier to "fit in." :)

Funny, about the only thing, I like about my body before transitioning, is the fact, I can buy shoes off the rack, no problem. Guess having my mom's gene for small slender feet, paid off. Rather be a tad taller than 5ft 5 3/4.

I'm 6'1" and my shoe size is a 12 (men's 10), soooo shoe shopping is a pain. It runs in the family, as one of my sisters and one of my nieces are both 6'3" with a size 13.5 shoe (men's 11.5).

Don't worry about your size. Being a petite woman can make shopping and "blending into the crowd" a whole lot easier!

Sounds good to me :)

The important question is are you happy the way you are :unsure:

I see that you are 16 years old.

Most Genetic girls are done growing by 16, however Genetic males still have a few more years of their growth cycle left.

Unless you are in some kind of anti androgen I would guess that you could still grow a bit more yet.

I saw that some girls on here said that there was a difference between the man's shoe size and the womens shoe sizes that they wear. When I went to stores to try on women's shoes, the women that was helping me said that it was very unusual that the womens size shoe and the mans size shoe were the same for me. Is that true, Do other people have that were their shoe size is the same no matter if its a man's or women's shoe?

I think that's true for most, Melissa. My woman's shoe size is 1/2 to 1 size larger than my male shoe size, depending on the style.

I am 5'7" and wear a womens 10. I used to think my feet were too big and hated them. Then i was looking around the web for shoes and came across a site that had celebrity shoes sizes listed and showed pics of them in assorted shoes or showed the shoes they wore in films or tv with links to bid on them at ebay. After i saw some of these shoes i was amazed at how big a lot of these womens feet are and that many of them with big feet are not very tall at all. If i remember, Cameron Diaz is about 5'9" and wears a 10 and she is beautiful. There were plenty of other gorgeous celebrities around my height with the same size shoes and all of them looked very attractive. It made me feel better about my own feet and now i love them.

mens 9, womens 10(US) or 41/8(Euro) generally for me.

How is it possible that I wear the same size in mens as I do in womens then?

if I remember anything from selling shoes it was that there is a point where the ssizes meet. I think its 9 or so.

.

That's why I almost always try on womens cothes/shoes....

Men's clothes have become pretty standardized due to the military making sizes match....

Women's sizes are all over the place...

I wear a man's 9 1/2 shoe....

But, I have women's shoes in 9-10-11-and 12 that all fit....

Don't ever take women's sizes for granted...

That is whi I don't mail order any of my clothes any more...I'm full time and all I have is female clothes...

I buy from stores...heck with the size..I just get whatever fits!

I'm in the same boat you're in (except I'm four inches shorter). Size 12 Shoes are almost too big, though, depending on the make.

I dunno. I guess my feet are weird.

Very Happy just the way I am !

No doubt it is harder to fit in as a girl when you are 6' 4". I stand out in crowd no matter what.

Shoes are real pain for this girl, size 15-16 here, shopping very hard, thanks Lizzy (again) for the great tip.

Love thy self !

Hugs

I was thinking on the width of my shoulders this morning and decided that I cannot spend too much time getting down about it because there's nothing I can do to change it.

I'm not shrinking from 6'2" and my feet aren't getting much smaller than a size 12 mens (somewhere between 13 and 14 womens). I was upset about this in a past life, but it's who I am.

      Bathroom usage law based on chromosomes is quite irrational. Just within the intersex community there are quite a few problems with it with those that have full or partial androgen insensitivity. For instance, I have XY chromosomes but also have a uterus and fallopian tubes. My breasts are real and I have had them since puberty. I was also born without a penis to speak of, but I do have testes.    I don't look like the average guy, and much less now that I don't hide my DDD's behind baggy layered clothes.    Physically I am much more female than male, but my birth certificate and chromosomes say something else.    I most definitely don't fit in the men's room. Last time I tried everyone stopped what they were doing and stared at me until I left. I have used the family restroom in public ever since (all gender). The Texas law basically leaves only one choice for intersex individuals. Family restroom or pee your pants. 🙄

      I had a similar experience.  My father, doing geneological research, googled the name of the tiny hamlet in Scotland where his family came from.  He was surprised to find a request from someone in Australia wanting to find his birth mother.  The mother was named as my father's sister, from that same tiny hamlet.  There was no possibility of mistaken identity: there could not be two people of that name in such a small place.   The family knew that my aunt had had a child out of wedlock, but no one had kept track of the child.  And of course, the times being what they were, knowledge of the event was kept on a need-to-know basis.    My father contacted the person in Australia.  He gained a nephew and I gained a cousin that I never knew I had.  We kept in touch until my cousin passed away a few years ago.  I am still in occasional contact with his widow.

      I can relate to that, I started my oral estrogen back in 2017.. less than 6 months I was wearing jeans size 40, then afterward my hips started to curve so I can fit a jeans size 12 or 14.. my treating doctors suggested for me to take before and after pictures and show it to them during my next doctor's appointment.

      Good morning from the backyard patio,   Parker and I are outside enjoying the morning sounds of the day. It’s was filled with the beautiful sounds of birds, bugs and kids off at a distant playground. My coffee was hot, strong and black. This came crashing down as the Monday morning trash truck came into the neighborhood. We’re the first neighborhood for the trash route since a city ordinance keeps all commercial workers limited to a 07:00 start time. It was Parker’s first time experiencing this noise and physical vibrations as the operator slammed the articulated arm around picking up individual trash bins. Parker ran from the fence back to the patio swing looking back at the monstrous truck causing such a commotion. His head tilted, ears perked, and body language indicating curiosity.    My second cup of coffee is settling down as the birds return to singing their calls, and Parker ravages his toy rabbit.    Hugs and best wishes as you take on the week. Happy Monday!   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Good morning @Adrianna Danielle   I’m glad you agreed to the paternity test.    My Uncle found himself in a similar situation and after the test he was faced with explaining his infidelity and one night stand to his wife and family. Not only did the test come back; “YOU ARE THE FATHER” she looked like a sister to the other children in his family. This was a “23 & Me” moment confirmed by an independent test. The most important reason for the young lady to search for her father, was medical history and peace of mind. The blessing of the test was her understanding and willingness to disappear into obscurity. That was not what my Uncle or his family wanted to happen. She was family and they wanted to know her and eventually love her as a family member. The next 4th of July family gathering, she was introduced to the rest of her extended family and I gained a cousin. My prayers for you as you navigate all the possibilities, and I hope it works out for everyone involved.    Hugs,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Well I’m short on time again!   I had to move to the couch around 3:15 this morning. Unfortunately my wife’s med vac was making a lot of noise which woke me up and I couldn’t sleep. Then I over slept because my alarm wasn’t set correctly, my fault.    @Mirrabooka Hobart is a beautiful city and Tasmania is a wonderful place to visit. I was there several times in the 80s.    @Birdie Texas isn’t the only state with such laws.  Don’t try going to a public bathroom in Florida either. Now there laws aren’t based on chromosomes or anything like that but it’s a birth certificate as far as I know.  That Texas law is a tough one, really anti transgender in all respects. Except!  What if you have an extra chromosome?  Or DNA that’s flipped?  Did they think of that situation?  Medical theory suggests that is the case when it come to Transgender people, but especially the young ones.  Also, IQ, that tends to be higher than average.  There are a lot of things about us the medical science is studying, not just psychology.   got to go   Willow
