Man-hips

Ok so I've been crossdressing for a good year now, wearing nothing but guy clothes and trying to pass as much as I can, with pretty good results. Most people call me "sir" or at least try to avoid using specific pronouns, which is good enough for me since I'm pre-T and I can't really expect everyone to see my pretty face and think "manly man" lol.

Luckily my chest is very small, so that's really no problem, and I wear hoodies and collared shirts to make my neck seem thicker. My main problem is this: Tiny waist, wide hips, junk in the trunk. I have a horrid hourglass figure. :|

I was wondering if there was any way to disguise or make hips more narrow, and get rid of that girly-curve in my back. The only thing I could think of is trying to lose weight around there, so I've been riding my bike constantly, not very much results besides the fact that my thighs feel like rocks now.

Anything would help. I usually pass, but then everyone tells me from the back I look like a girl(I had one male friend say "your latin butt is too nice to be a dude's"), and the hips make me look so disproportionate and strange. Dx It sucks.

Thanks!

Maybe bigger pants? I'm assuming you're wearing guy's already, but maybe a bigger size, with a belt if it's too big in the waist?

Losing weight would probably help the same way T would, sort of. Getting rid of the fat instead of redistributing it. So that's a good idea; I would keep excersizing. (Is that spelled wrong? For some reason I can't spell that word today.)

Yeah, maybe I should start doing that. I mostly wear straight leg jeans or the relaxed fit. It has a habit of clinging to my thighs and then getting loose around my shins, making it look more awkward. I'll probably do trial and error with different fits and styles, and maybe go up a jean size. My girlfriend doesn't want me to go too big though, because she says when I wear those baggy pants, it makes me look like I'm trying to get into that thug style and it doesn't suit me very well.

That's exactly what I was thinking when I started doing the exercise! Because it is pretty much the same thing...I think the main reason I'm not getting much results is my diet. I'll work on that too. Thanks for the tip. :]

(And yeah, it's "exercising." I always spelled it that way too until last year when my teacher barked at me about it lol.)

maybe pull your pants a little lower on your hips (not too far down, obviously) so that the legs of your pants straighten out more and then pull a shirt or hoodie straight down to a little lower than where your pants sit. it can straighten out your figure a bit.

That actually works. My friend came from behind me when I did that and said "Dude! You really look like a guy that way!" That made my day and I've been doing that ever since.

I have found that wearing an unbuttoned long sleeve dress shirt or an unbuttoned suit jacket can work wonders for hips. Dark colors generally help too. If you draw a lot of attention to more masculine areas it will help too. If you're flat enough to pass as male there with attention then you should wear a top that diverts attention from the bottom. For example, an unusual graphic t-shirt, a patterned vest, or a message shirt. There also are masculine accessories that are helpful such as unique ties and hats. A top hat will grab attention away from your hips but if you want something subtler a fedora would work too. A patterned beanie can be helpful too though. There are also compression shorts which will make your hips and butt flatter. Losing weight will definitely help. I'm going for a weight of 105, which was the weight at which my breasts completely disappeared, though at 115 my hips looked male.

I agree with what everyone else has said, those things do work...also, i heard doing "sideways push-ups" (can`t think of their proper name :/ ) can help, not sure if that`s true though since i`m too lazy to try it out and just prefer to wear baggy jeans, lol...

      Hi Sally, okay I'll head on over to your post and check out your makeup techniques.
    • Sally Stone
      Hey all,   It's been a while, but I blogged a whole series on makeup.  It's an eight-part series where I talk about my techniques.   Here is the link to Part 1:       Hopefully the blog series is helpful.

      Oh, I can relate to that one Vicky, leaving lipstick in hot weather  I've lost count how many times I had to purchase new purses. 
    • Ladypcnj
      Thanks for the replies, as an admin from my own group I understand the same rules, agreed.

      Any links posted would have to meet this criteria  All content posted or shared through TransPulse services must be appropriate for minors. We welcome members aged 13 to 18. As such, adult or pornographic content, nudity, underwear images, violence, gore, and other content not suitable for minors may not be posted anywhere to this service.

      I do spoken word acting, and give Trans 101 talks and other public speaking.  I wear make-up for those occasions.  Sephora is easy for me to get to, and has a foundation that does a good job for me and the sales folks there are Trans Friendly.  Their eye shadow pallets are also fun to use. Another source of my foundation is Ulta which carries Dermablend that does a consistent job of my lower face and chin.   I just use good old Revlon lipsticks because I ruin them by leaving my purse in the hot car too often.

      I'm not interested in makeup, jewelry or nice clothes or girly stuff.  It's made me wonder at times.   It saves some money.  If I wore a skirt it would likely  be denim.  I thought about a woman's skirt suit but nah.   Neither of my sisters are into that stuff either.  One likes peasant chic (still a 60s flower girl)  and the other - the only time she has ever worn a dress was at her wedding.  Jeans at all other times.   Jeans and t shirt here.  Content being a girl.  Weirdo. Weirda? Never mind.

      @Ladypcnj Before posting links to other group's websites, PM one of the Staff (preferably an Admin) and have them check that site out.   We have specific rules here regarding age appropriateness and would need to know that the other site is in line with those rules.  We do have members here between 13 and 18 and other sites need to be safe for that age range, legally and otherwise.  Also, we are not a dating or pick-up site, not do we allow people selling things to advertise here.  As I said clear the link with a moderator or admin before posting it.  Mod's and admins do check out posts and if we find problem links we will remove them and notify the OP of a rules violation.  Go to https://www.transgenderpulse.com/community-rules to understand where we are.

      I raise my hand in the group, I have a question and a suggestion... is it allowed to share other new lgbtq+ website links here? 
    • Ladypcnj
      Yeah, ELF is a good brand, another brand is Revlon ColorStay last 24 hours.

      Sir is good, as well as mister! I don't mind Mx. but my brain's first thought is a mixer.

      giggles..sounds much more comfy   I'm on 5 minute break outside n wondering if i can open my blouse..oops..maybe not ..laughs
    • kristinabee
      I really don't think that's a good idea. The unity of the LGB and T community is historic and has been central for both groups rights. And the vast majority of people advocating for splitting the two are transphobic LGB's who are broadly condemned by the community anyway.
