Can you still be passable with wide shoulders?

[schizophrenia]

I'm transitioning, but sometimes I feel I won't be passable enough because of my shoulders. I see all these other trannies and their shoulders look so feminine and small. Is this anything I can do to help? Breast implants? Hip injections?

being crazy hot and being passable are two very
different things. there are gg's out there who are
all shapes and sizes. being passable is as much
about feeling comfortable in who you are as it is
about looking a certain way.

imho

Take a look at Sigourney Weaver sometime. Big square shoulders, skinny little hips. Diet, exercise and most af all carriage are the keys to success. Good luck.

Well it helps to have a feminen build...I don't think wide shoulders would be much of a problem as long as you have (or can make to have) oter feminen features.

Yes....the "boyish" look has been popular with GG models and actresses since the 60's really....There is a difference between "boyish good looks" and "prop forward" (or "linebacker" in the States) though. Of course the hormones will quickly begin to change muscle and fat distribution, but not much can be done about the male skeletal development. Kinda depends on just how big the shoulders are.......

John Lithgow in "The World According to Garp" - those shoulders would be hard to pass.

Schizophrenia, if you are going to base your decison on
whether to transition or not based on how well you will
"pass" then you might want to consider how badly you NEED
(that word used specifically) to transition. I don't think it's
at all a good idea to transition because you think it might be
fun or exciting or that you will get more attention. One
should transition because they HAVE to. Alot of people are
happy to go out en femme once a week or even just once
in a blue moon. Transition (as you might have already
experienced) is a very challenging process and it should only
be done if one is resolute about it's necessity to mental health.

that being said... if you are on hormones you might want to wait a while
before getting implants. i still have growth spurts now and then in my
breasts and i have been on hormones for 7 years. regarding some kind
of silicone or implants you should consult the best cosmetic surgeon you
can find in your area and see what they suggest. a filled out ass/hips area
will probably help alot to balance your body but be careful. there are
numerous threads on here about the dangers of injecting silicone and you
want to make sure you are using medical grade materials. your life is
more valuable than anything.

my last 2 cents on this

Caleigh. It's not like that at all. I'm not like some truck driving crossdresser playing games. I'm not doing this for fun. I'm doing it to be happy! But I must be the best or else I'm nothing at all! However I have body dysmorphic disorder so it makes it harder. Also it's not like my shoulders are bulky huge, i just don't like them! Some other trannies have somewhat wide shoulders, but I wish mine were small and petite. I've been on hormones for a year and I think I should get siicone injections in my hips to make my body look more proportionate. because most GG's have shoulders that are even with their hips. It's the only way!

Ah now you see you didn't tell us that first off. Like men, women come in a range of shapes and sizes (like a sample of any organism, as a matter of fact.) There are skinny-hipped girls, thick-waisted girls, hourglass-shaped girls, pear-shaped girls and everything in between. There is no "normal" shape. Now, Seanchai makes a fair point, though he was being tongue in cheek-- if you're John Lithgow this is going to be tricky, but sometime watch a magician. He (or she) will make things that are impossible happen. They don't-- they just divert your attention long enough for the impossible to appear to happen. You have to learn this trick.

There are some TS girls who are just naturally drop-desd 10's. Not everyone is like that. The rest have to get clever and learn some smoke-and-mirrors techniques. These have to do with how you dress, your makeup, most importantly of all, your bearing and carriage.....And the thing to remember is the 90 percent of gg women who are not drop-dead tens either have to do the same thing.

I would think careful observation of gg women and how they go about things would be time usefully spent. I mean I do it for fun, for you it's research.

I used to have a friend with benefits that had big shoulders but yuou wouldn't really know it unless you seen her from certain angles. Not to be too graphic (hell, this is a porn borad) but once I was having sex with her doggie style and it hit me that she was as broad as I am, and I am very broad.

She did exactly what you spoke of (smoke and mirrors), she had her breats done pretty large and had very full hips from silicone (I'm guessing), they looked very natural and great. But know that silicone is some dangerous shit.

In reference to my friend, she is one of the more known show/pageant girls and i have heard a lot of people say how one day they all of a sudden realized she was as broad as she is. And you know pageant people look at the girls extra damn close.

It goes to show that you really can use smoke and mirrors.

But the thing about being the best, you can do it no matter what body issues you have. It just takes more time, effort, and money. I've learn that anything is possible with this stuff. I've seen girls that you would have never thought could pass become amzingly attractive.
