Would you say you're more feminine, masculine, androgynous, or something else entirely? Is this more by choice or just how you're comfortable? Do you have a "type" that you go for?

I'm more femme-androgynous, but I've been known to dress in drag. I just feel like what I feel like wearing day-to-day and that ranges from peach Marilyn Monroe dresses with Vans and suit + ties with heeled boots.

I am very Femme-androgynous when I am being myself. When I am around parents and other certain people I tend towards Masculine-androgynous.

I'm pretty feminine. For a moment I was tempted to say androgynous as well before I realized that throwing on a hoodie does not equal androgyny. XD
I dunno. I dislike categorizing everything by gender but I'm fine with my so-called femininity. I like cute things, wearing skirts, being expressive...etc. By our (and by "our" I mean society's) standards I would not pass physically or mentally as a male or even as gender neutral. It's just the way I am.

Physically speaking I guess I prefer gentler, more feminine features but a touch of androgyny/boyishness can be very attractive to me as well. ninja

I'd be somewhere between androgenous and masculine-androgenous...Personality wise, I'm rather masculine, though I do have my girly flirty moments. Appearence wise...well, with my recent haircut, my brother said "If you diden't have boobs, people would mistake you for my little brother", if that gives you a picture, although I do wear eyeliner. :/

I tend to be very attracted to androgeny. There's just something about gender neutrailty that makes me like OMG*drool*. Haha

I'm a boi dyke... which means I'm pretty much in the middle ground, sharing both masculine and femine traits. I dress rather boishly, dress shirts, ties, tank tops and the like. But I have female traits as well... it is hard to explain, but in a day I can go from being called Sir to being called Ma'am to minutes later. It all depends on the person. Let's just say I confuse the world.

My sister called me out right in front of the whole family on one occassion "a hermaphrodite" (not really understanding what that entailed) and not my assigned gender on other several occassion to others near us totally unprovoked. I've had all the looks and whispers when I walk past unsure women and charismatic men as to whether I was a boy or girl everywhere from Walmart to the library. I don't try to be anything I'm not in terms of throwing my ideal into the faces of everyone I meet. I don't wear things like hoodies to hide my body, I consider that a little cheating when someone says they've been mistaken for the other gender much like a distasteful trompe d'oeil.

I'm rather intrinsic and stand without defense or defiance--just as I am. I truly honestly like pre-pubesent boy and andro-fem types, it just reminds me of a less complicated time like childhood.

I'm definetly more of a female, but I'd love to have that pretty boy look. Like that, "I look like a girl, but my face and lack of a chest make you wonder!"

Not that I mind being curvy, but I'd prefer to look like that. :3

Well you can't mistaken me for a guy that's for sure, I have long dark brown hair, and a womanly figure, but I like to wear dress shirts-you know the kind that are a little boyish, and I love my comfty skater shoes, I wouldn't wear a dress or skirt unless I had to and I don't wear make-up. So I don't know what that would make me. As to what I'm attracted to I could go for either femmie with a little bit of boy or boyish with a little bit a femme.

I'm very androgynous; though I'm technically female, I get mistaken for a "sir" even by professors, students, and other people who know me. And then there are those who say "ma'am" and verbally second or triple guess themselves. I attempt to look "androgynous" because this is what I consider my gender if you want to put a label on it; therefore I look as I do on purpose. Androgyny is my most comfortable state to exist in.

Hm..don't think I really have a "type"?

How is it that no has brought up the term "Neutrois"?
Androgyny is the blending of both masuline and femine qualities, Neutrois is the lack of identifiable sex, or as having no sex.

OMG. I LOVE YOU. I've read that term in a few research books.. but I couldn't remember what it was. ><;; THAT is what I mean. heart

Btw, in many research papers the opposite extreme of Androgyne is called "Undifferentiated".... it's basically the scientific term for Neutrois. :3

(I might have posted this twice now, not sure.)
My physical sex is female, and I'm comfortable with that, but I feel better going by both pronouns. It feels more 'me' sometimes to have my girlfriend call me her boyfriend, or to not correct a teacher when he calls me 'he'. (My teachers mistake me for a guy on a regular basis, I think it's awesome/funny)

So, yeah. I tell my friends that they can call me by either pronoun. It's cool.

I was born female, but I act very much like a guy. My ROOM looks like a girly room that was taken over by a guy. I have one dress that I have never worn that stays in my closet to kee the parents happy.

Somedays I'm more masculine than others, when I have short hair I get mistaken for a boy a lot even though I do in fact have a chest that I have yet to bind down or try to hide.
