It is a little bit weird since in a boy mode I look like my dad. But when fully fem with wig and make up I see my mom in the mirror. I guess it makes sense it just throws me off since I haven't seen that until I started dressing.

Amanda,
I share the same facial shape as my mother , sister and also my daughter .
My daughter often tells me I look like a sister to my sister .
Yes, I look just like my mother except I have my father's smile. Everyone always said that, even when I was a young boy.
I never looked like my mother but a strong resemblence to a sister and my daughter
I think I do too when en femme.
Facially I don't resemble either of my parents. However, Sherry occasionally looks remarkably like my former girl friends and wife!:D
When all dressed and made up in wig, yes, there is some resemblance to my mother. Similar face structure, and legs. Sometimes, it bothers me. In bad pics, i resemble my dad some. A bit of both.
That is funny.Quote:

Not me I look more like my dad I have even mistaken myself for him in old pictures Kind of scary, but he was a good man. I have often wondered if he may have been in to crossdressing since my mother was an actress, makeup artist and I ran across photos of him dressed but it looked more like a comedy thing, Hmm
I've been told I look like my mother, and that was before I ever came out. The biggest difference is I'm about a foot taller and have outlived her by several years now.
As I occasionally look at photos, depending on how my hair is styled or the lineup of the shot, I very much look like my mother.
From the first time I was fully dressed and full makeup I have seen my younger sister when I look in the mirror.
No I look like my dad, except for my blue eyes. Those are from mum.
Are eyes are the same similar facial features. But also look like my father
Myself and two female siblings all look like our Dad, not sure if that is good or bad though.
Yes, my wife, at the time used to say "You are just like your mother". I do look something like her.
I take pride in looking like my father who in turn looks like his father. My son however looks like his mother and her father. I guess now I can take pride in looking like my mother. Here's hoping I can be half the woman (person) she is.
I look a little like my mom, a lot like my sister and a couple of cousins. When I started dressing again I was playing around with my phone and took a selfie, I thought I had deleted it only to pop up later. I saw it and wondered how a picture of my sister got on my new phone.

My SO gave me my first make-over and after about an hour, she said I looked like my Mother which soured the moment.
I have a gray wig which my wife hates because she says it makes me look like my mother. They had a somewhat strained relationship,
Nope, not even close. I must have been adopted.
I look like my younger sisters twin.
I suppose I do look a great deal like my mother did, other than the additional 10 inches of height, the extra 100+ pounds, shoulders and hands.
Not at all. But as one of 8 siblings (I am the second oldest), dressed and with a blonde wig, I have a striking resemblance to my next younger sister.
when dressed and in makeup i am a carbon copy of my late mom
Many years ago I was leaving the elder apartment where my mother was living and was joined on the elevator by one of the staff.
We chatted and out of the blue: "Hah, put you in a denim dress [like she wore] and a wig and you can't tell the two of you apart."
(To myself): "Buddy, you have no idea."
I'll let you decide :).
Attachment 310078
My features are a mix of my mom and maternal grandfather and it's as though I didn't inherit anything at all in the looks department from my dad's side of the family. Virgin birth, perhaps. :)

The first time I put on my wife's wig in the late 60's and looked in the mirror I thought that I was looking at my sister. Neither of us looked like our mother. My mother was heavy set and had a Roman nose which apparently my father's genes over powered. Both were tall which was an advantage as a man but it's hard finding size 13 women's shoes. Yes, I mourn the demise of Payless.
The first time my aunt saw me fully dressed she told me to walk down the hall and come back. I had on heals and walked back she told me not only did I look like my mom, but I walked just like her in heals.
It?s spooky how much I look like her in her fifties especially when I wear my curly wig. She loved getting a perm. Wonder what mom would think if she ever found out she really had five daughters?
Nope not at all.
In most physical ways I take after my maternal grandfather and my uncle. When made up I look like my mother, which I found a little disconcerting...
In my bad pics I see my Dad in a dress, like I'm in a comedy skit, except it's not funny. With the right pose and the right amount of makeup or youcam I see my Mom and am very happy.
Much like my sister but dress more like my mom in the 60s!
Not me, I look more like my sister. :eek:
My face is shaped more like my mother's side of the family so yes, I do look like her when dressed.
I hope not. But I also get annoyed when people say I look like my dad. And annoyed when my wife said certain clothes are something my mom would pick out. I bought a pair of heels as an impulse buy and wearing them reminded me of my mom's heels so I had to get rid of them.
I don't see it but I've been told that.
They especially say that I have her nose.
Danielle, I see it especially in the mouth, nose, and chin.Quote:

Sex, on the other hand, is determined by having received the Y chromosome from the father - which determines whether you will develop male sexual characteristics - and this is completely random. In fathers, only half of sperm cells carry the Y chromosome.
Here?s an image of the Brazilian soccer player Neymar and his son, who obviously looks more like his mother:

And here?s an image of a brother and sister (Alex and Emma Watson) who look alike - same eyebrow shape, nose, mouth - whether they look more like their father, mother, or a combination of both:

I personally look more like my father, as does my brother, but we both have inherited many other traits from our mother. My brother and I look alike even though he looks masculine and I look feminine.
EDIT:
Good one! :DQuote:

More than once I'd been said that. First time my wife. She even thinks my legs ate like my mom.
Then when out to my brother he told I'm pretty and then I'm like my sister, may be he has in his memory my mom's image that past on 2011being 83 and pass from alzheimer.
Finally my grandson, 10 years old told me.when the first time that I look like my mom because his dad has hanging on the world a pic from mom on her fifties...I'm proud of it...
I look very similar to my father in some pictures, and like my mother's brother in others. I don't look anything like my mother or her sister, or my father's sister, or even my own sister. I'm okay with that. :D
No but it has been alluded to that my younger sister looks like me....
Absolutely! I look like my mother when dressed.
Amanda, I look like my younger sister, not my mom.
Maybe if I had a sister I could look like her instead. It might not be as weird feeling.
Umm, yes, I do look like Mom. I have changed my look to my natural white hair color and I look like a cross between her and my MIL who has since passed on. I have some of my MIL's clothes and when I wear them I can escape the resemblance, so I do not wear that outfit near my wife as it would be too much. I started going gray in my 20's. So rarely go for the red head look anymore.
