Im a boy who looks girly?

Question

Im a 17 year old boy who is very small/skinny. I have long hair past my shoulders and many people think i would make a good girl. Some girls i know have even done my hair all girly and put make up and girl clothe on me. I admit you wouldnt be able to tell i was a boy,but i cant stand looking like a girl anymore. Should i start body building and cut my hair? I dont want to be considered one of the girls anymore

Answer 1

Hey Brad, being a girl isn't so awful! If you enjoy it, go for it. Loads of people find the androgynous look really attractive and it has always had great indie-rock appeal.

If you feel like a change of style, you could always go for an indie look, something like James Blunt or Jake Gyllenhaal, with mid-length layered hair, band t-shirts and skinny jeans, perhaps a bit of stubble if you like. This would probably suit you really well: it's not too macho, but it's definitely masculine.

As you're only 17, it's very likely that you'll bulk up over the next few years anyway: men continue to grow into a more masculine look well into their twenties. You should certainly follow a healthy diet and do plenty of exercise, but don't overdo the bodybuilding - it can be very bad for you, especially at a young age, and over-built bodies look horrible.

If you just have patience and stay healthy I am sure you'll achieve the look you want very soon. Good luck!

First off, dump the long hair and donate it to Locks of Love, a charity that makes wigs for cancer patients out of your long hair. Go in for a short, masculine haircut. Flattops are the in style nowadays, if you have the hair for it. ...and don't let the girls make you up anymore. If word gets out about that, then you're going to be a lost cause, unless you can laugh it off very well.

Start working out a little bit each day. Try pull ups, sit ups and push ups. Get involved in an after-school soccer game or some other sport. You will get great exercise that way too.

If your skin tone is very pale white, you may decide to get a little sun on your skin to darken your skin tone.

cut your hair...work on some body building...walk like a man.The posture and the walk are important.Wear heavier boots and walk with a purposeful gait.Never mind trying to grow a beard either..that will make you look like an imposter.Maybe you should hang out with the guys more and pick up some of their habits.Keep your sensitivity with the girls though.Modulate your voice..dont squeek or have a high voice.Age fixes alot of these things but I know you need it now

Start thinking of yourself as a man. Get involved in things that will compel you to " take the bull by the horns " and don't quit on it until it's done.Give your word and keep it, no matter what. Admit when you mess up and move on, act regretful but don' look " sorry ". You get the idea. Congratulations on your choice.
