To my fellow trans men: (especially pre t people if yall relate) how tf do I get past the feeling of never feeling sexy as a trans man My body isn’t rly “hot” material in either direction, and clothes never fit right. I just wish I could ever feel sexy

Everyone’s experience is different tbh but in my experience I’ve found that working out and gaining some muscle has really helped me feel better. I was always curvy around the hips and I found gaining muscle elsewhere lessened that appearance.

i feel sexy as me instead of trying to feel sexy as a man or in the general consensus of hotness. i see myself and ill be like "god damn i'm hot; i'd be lucky to bang me" cause i like looking queer and i like queer looking men. i would've never been a hot woman, and im not everyone's type, but i don't gotta be yo be hot.

For reference I grew up VERY overweight so not only has working out made me feel more masculine it’s also lessened the ugly feeling towards my own body bc I just feel healthier and better overall. I have tboy friends who grew up real twig skinny and also started working out and said similar things

there are always gonna be days that you won't think you look amazing, but you gotta let yourself see yourself outside of cultural norms of beauty
