How can I make myself look like a man?

Question

I'm gender fluid (or at least that's the best label I can find for me) and sometimes I feel disgusted with being female biologically. When I feel this way I usually wear as masculine of clothing that I have (easily done since most of my clothes are from the men's section). I also wear things that hide my breasts and figure (baggy clothes or multiple layers). But clothes can only go so far. Obviously hormone therapy and surgery aren't options, but does anyone have any other suggestions?

Answer

getting a binder would definitely be helpful, but always make sure to bind safely! never use ace bandages, dont bind for too long or when youre sleeping, and be wary of the cheap ones off amazon and ebay-- thats the kind of binder i had at first and not only did it not bind well but it didnt stretch much either, so it was really not that safe. if you can, look into buying one from underworks or gc2b, theyre both great!

Answer

You said you wear baggy clothes to hide breasts, but have you heard of/gotten a binder? They compress your chest so you look like you don't have breasts. (I recommend gc2b or Underworks. NEVER BIND WITH ACE BANDAGES!) A packer makes it look like you've got a penis, if you want that. If you can't get/don't want either of those, you can get straight or not-skinny pants to help hide your hips. Good luck, and I hope this is helpful!

Answer

Find some drag kings in your area. They are amazing at transforming themselves into their characters (I know you aren't a character, but they have tips that could help with looking more masculine).

Answer

If you can't get a binder try wearing two sports bras

Answer

Bind safely. If you have long hair, tuck it under a beanie or other hat. Wear men's deodorant and cologne, look at lowering your voice on the Internet, stuff like that.

I don't know if this will help but it might.

Answer

if you don't mind me asking, why arent hormone therapy and surgery an option (if you don't want to say or if it's uncomfortable or anything to talk about i don't mind just tell me that you don't want to say and i won't ask questions)?

Answer

I'm a gender fluid too. Just start slowly getting binders to begin then work on other stuff. It'll be okay 😎

Answer

Wearing a sports bra has helped me (since I can't really get a binder)
Also, I recently got my hair cut in a way that is discreet but also makes me feel more comfortable in myself.

Answer

Get a binder or two from GC2B, they're amazing. Try out hudsons guide for ftm passing -- it's real Traditional but some of what it suggests is useful.

And find friends who affirm you as you!!

Answer

I think w/o surgery or the use of medicine, style is the best way to achieve this. Maybe consider getting a short gender neutral haircut?
