How feminine/masculine are you?

[emmicd]

How do you rate your femininity/masculinity on a scale of 1 to 5?

1 -I am a girl by birth and am naturally feminine. I love to wear nice clothes including dresses!

2 -I am a girl by birth and have a need to express both my feminine side and my masculine side. I don't wear dresses all that much!

3 -I am a girl by birth and live as a female but rather dress as a guy and act more like one too! I'm not at all into girly clothes.

4 -I am a girl by birth but I am at odds with it. I'd rather be a guy. I am doing some soul searching!

5 -I am a girl by birth but identify as male and am transitioning. Never was into being a girl!

How do you rate? Would like to hear your responses?

Somewhere in between 4 and 5. I'm not into a full- blown transition but I have major problems with being a girl and would much rather be a bloke. If transitioning were easier and less health damaging (not to mention less expensive) I'd probably do it but as of now it's not in my cards.
I'd rather be read as a guy but I really like guys and most of the guys I like happen to be straight so I have to really keep some aspects of myself (my body, namely) female in order to be happy.
But to the general public I want to be perceived as male.

EmmiIfeel as if Ive been through most of those over the Years at 15 people were very protective of me. Even Dockland Doris and her hard mates made sure I was safe. Gradually the roles changed, but by that time Ive led half my life en femme. no HRT. Wierd Docs. Now I'm older J has becoum a home thing. With rare excursions Last week sitting outside in a strappy dress and a medium short skirt in a friends garden was great though

But to the general public I want to be perceived as male.Looking at your avatar... I'd say you're looking pretty male to me ;)

I would have to say I am in between 4-5. I like the equipment I have, but want people to forget I am female. I never have thought of transitioning, and wouldn't.

I'm somewhere around about 3. I use cross-dressing as a way of expressing my masculine side, as well as the fact that I enjoy and feel comfortable dressed as a guy.

I have done some serious thinking in the past about transitioning - particularly in my late teens and again more recently - but have come to the conclusion that it's not something I want to do.

When I was younger I wanted to be a man, however, this period coincided with me discovering and struggling with my sexuality. I now think my desire to transition then was more to do with that. In other words, I fancied women, but that wasn't allowed, so I figured that if I was actually a bloke then being attracted to women would be ok. (You'll note I didn't even contemplate trying to fancy men instead :rolleyes: ) In the end it was just easier to accept that I was a lesbian, who likes to dress!

I'd say between 3 and 4, since you mentioned "soul searching". :D

i am 5 all the way, even when i would try to be female noone would think they thought i was a cd man trying to be a woman

I suppose if I have to choose one of these, I'd be number 3, although I have vacilated between 2, 3 and 4, honestly. :o I estimate that I'm about 75% female and 25% male. I even took that Sex ID test (on another post) and it confirmed this.

I have a female body and am attracted to males, but I've always preferred dressing like a boy and resented being made to wear skirts and dresses when I was younger. Right now I don't own a skirt, a dress or a pair of heels, but I do like wearing makeup, nail polish and feminine jewelry.

So what does that make me? Besides a straight female transvestite, I think I also have elements of transgenderism. :eek: I'm still learning about all this.

When I go out with my female friends, it's great, but there are times when I wish I had male friends to hang out with, have a beer, go bowling, watch the ball game, etc. Straight guys are not usually into hanging out unless they have a romantic interest, so I've hung out with gay guys sometimes. In fact, my best friend is my gay cousin, who says he has a female side, so we get along great.

Sorry about the long-winded answer. I guess I'm number 3, but there are times when I can relate to numbers 2 and 4 also.

Well! I'm a man who likes to dress, and act, and walk, and play as a woman who cannot resist looking at beautiful women, I just really fancy women. So, maybe I am a cross dressing male to female who has strong Lesbian tendencies. Sounds all a bit mixed up but it's who I am.

I am a 3 . 75% female and 25% male.I am more comfortable in male style clothing. I keep my hair short and wear the clothing I do because it helps me feel stronger.I live alone.I need to feel like I can take care of myself.Who wants to feel all frilly ,soft and fem behind locked doors and a cell phone by her side,listening to every bump in the night.?I depend on myself to go to work and pay the bills and buy food. Growing up my dad protected us and went out and worked.My mom sat back and let him and was terrified to stay alone a night.My Dad was strong ,my mother was weak.Roles for women are way diffrent these days .You need to be strong to get through this life.I have also found being with Wilma has brought even more masculine feelings out.I love her soft and gentle ways but I could never be that way. ;)
