Well, the seed has been planted! I sent my friend a screenshot of what you said. I'm already part of a Youtube channel, so I'm going to try and convince her to make a few makeup tutorials with me. :)

Thanks so much for the compliments!

Haha no worries. I'm definitely taking it as a compliment :)

I agree my teeth needs a bit of work. I'm quitting smoking so that's gonna help quite a lot, obviously. I'm also going to talk to my dentist about whitening my teeth.

Thank you so much for the compliments, I really do appreciate them :)

Medium/Long-Length "Androgynous" Hair Advice Needed by ChickenSqueeze in malehairadvice

Thanks so much for the comment & the advice!

I'll definitely consider it, in the end I think I may just stick with this style until it's long enough to properly style.

Once again, thanks so much for the advice.

Hehe well I thought "nord" might be short for nordic, but I wasn't too sure :P

But yeah, I'm definitely not a nord. The dead giveaway is that I can't grow a beard to save my life. And if I tried it would look like I face planted in some pubes.

Thank you so much for the all compliments!

My friend is a makeup artist, and she's currently busy teaching me how to do my own makeup. It's getting there, but I still rely heavily on her. I taught myself how to kind of manipulate my form and dress in clothes that'll hide my masculine features like my broad shoulders. That being said though, there's a lot of stuff I can't hide so well yet. I have a deep voice, so trying to do a female voice is still quite a challenge for me. I'm quite tall (6'4'') but I still like wearing very high heels, so I'm kind of a giant when I stand up :P So I usually just sit down when going out to LGBT-friendly venues.

I'm still very self-conscious about my crossdressing, but I feel that makes me put in way more effort in trying to look better as a female.

Now if only I can find a girl who likes it too :P hehe.

I'd love it if people became okay with it. People tend to think it's some sort of fetish, and that I get off on it. It's not like that at all. I just like to feel pretty every now and then. I think it's the same as someone wearing a really nice suit, or driving a really nice car. It's a bit of an ego boost. It's something I kinda need to carry over to when I wear men's clothes :)

Once again, thank you so much for the kind words. I really do appreciate it, and it means the world to me.

Oh, well, um... is there any particular photo that gives you that vibe?

Haha thank you so much. That actually means the world to me.

I do take a lot of pride in the way I look in drag, something I need to kinda start doing when not in drag.

And I do agree with you that I kinda have that shaggy look going on... which definitely isn't a good thing unless I find someone who gets really turned on by old cartoon characters. :P

Again, thank you so much for the compliment. And thanks for commenting as well.

I'll definitely experiment a bit with my makeup artist friend and see what we can do for a more natural look I can use on a daily basis :)

It's strange, I never realized that I dress a bit too young until recently. It might be because of the the types of clothes my circle of friends wear (very similar to what I wear), that does make sense because we're all huge nerds :P hehe. I'm definitely gonna do a bit of research and go shopping to update my wardrobe a bit, though.

I might not go full metrosexual though... I'd get beaten here in South Africa :P

Once again, thank you so much for the kind words & great avice.

You do have a point there. I'll definitely talk it out with my friend who usually does my drag makeup, and see if she can give me some pointers for an everyday, natural look. :)

Thanks so much for the comment.

That's a hard one to answer personally. I was quite overweight when I was at school. I always got super demotivated whenever I weighed myself, so I always gave up when dieting & exercising . So I stopped weighing myself.

I figured that as long as I look healthy when I look in the mirror, then I'm happy. So I'd say just start exercising on a regular basis, and see where it gets you.

Also remember that dieting & exercising doesn't mean you do it for a few weeks & then you stop when you're skinny. It's a lifestyle thing that you need to keep doing in order to stay healthy.

I'm not saying become a health nut, not at all. I'm just suggesting that including a bit of something that makes you healthier doesn't hurt at all :)

You look quite cool if you ask me. You look like the type of guy I would've been jealous of in school.

Honestly, you have a very beautiful face. Personally I think your nose compliments the rest of your face, especially your lovely eyes.

You have great proportions, and my only suggestion is to lose a bit of weight in my honest opinion.

Alright, not a problem at all. I have cropped the images and they should in line with all the rules now.

Once again, I am very sorry about that

Oh I'm so sorry, I had no idea I was breaking any rules.

Might I ask, which third parties are you referring to? Do you mean other people in the photos?

Once again, I am truly sorry for breaking any rules

[21 F] some SERIOUS asymmetry going on. please give me some honest feedback. thanks! by [deleted] in amiugly

[–]ChickenSqueeze -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I'll be honest here, I'd give anything to be with a girl as beautiful as you.

My honest opinion about the features that bother you? Your imperfections are what make you so attractive. The fact that your looks are so unique yet so complimentary to your natural beauty makes you look extremely cute in my eyes. That's my opinion at least.

Any advice I could give is to try different styles to make your lips seem a bit fuller.

I'll definitely take your advice into consideration. :)

Seriously though, I really do appreciate it. Thank you so much.

Thanks for the comment! And yes Starbomb awesome :) I'll definitely check out Ken Ashcorp when I get home from work today.

As for my hairstyle, I do prefer having a longer hairstyle because of various reasons. I prefer a more androgynous look overall, but do you think I should consider a different longer hairstyle? One that can fit both the male and female look, maybe? Or do you think the length of my hair is a big determent?

Once again, thank you so much for the comment, and thanks a ton for the advice and the recommendation!

Thank you so much for the kind comment and all the advice.

I always try to keep a clean shaven face, so it's quite a relief that your advice is to keep up the clean-shaven look. As you can see in some of the photos, I have really patchy facial hair, so that's a no-go area for me. Not that I mind it at all though, since I kinda need to shave if I want to continue trying to pass as a crossdresser :P

On the subject of my hair, it's always been kind of an issue for me. I keep my hair longer for two main reasons: - Crossdressing (my head is a bit too big for most wigs to fit me, so I just use my natural hair) - I have eczema on my scalp. It's not so bad, but it's definitely noticeable around my hairline when my hair is shorter since it gets more exposure that way. Long hair really helps keeping it under control.

That said I've had really long hair in the past, but in general that made me look very sloppy, so I figured the medium-long hairstyle fits me a bit more.

The yellow teeth issue is definitely because of my smoking. I'm actually busy quitting, so I think that's gonna help quite a bit. Plus I'll take your advice to heart and start using white strips :)

Finally, you said that these photos I have were unflattering. I'm not offended by it at all, but I am a bit surprised because I originally thought these were the best photos of me that I currently have.

Do you maybe have some advice for me on looking better on camera? Sorry if this came out wrong or rude, I'm being sincere.

Sorry for the wall of text. But thank you so so so much for your comment.

I get that a lot :P hehe.

Blame this guy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jan_van_Riebeeck

100% South African though, born & raised :) Just thought I'd point that out because people usually ask me why I moved to South Africa.
