As someone who has struggled with their own femininity, I hear you Cat. However, I don't think you should stress so much about if you are "feminine enough" to wear skirts or dresses, and just wear them if you like them.

That's what I ended up doing, heh.

I prefer pants myself, avatars are the only way I'll do dresses, I just really don't like wearing them irl that much. Granted part of that might be due to my grandmother making me wear them constantly and they were all she made beyond costumes and the rare plushie for me.

In regards to femininity, I stopped worrying if i was feminine enough a while back I embrace my tomboyish nature and am a lot happier because of it.

That's good advice... from both of you.

I worry too much about how I appear to others. It's something I have to work on.

Yeah, I understand that worry very well, but for me, I only worry about how people see my character rather than my physical appearance anymore.

Mostly because I'm not sure how to physically express myself to fit with my internal image anyways XD

Cat, I'm built like the proverbial *****house, and I buzz my hair. And I wear dresses and skirts all the time. Though if I wear anything above my ankles I wear leggings with it. DANG, some of those modern skirts are short. How the heck are you supposed to sit down in a knee length skirt without something underneath?

I'm a big, fat force of nature. Was bald for awhile, am growing my hair back out, aside from the part I'm shaving off. I wear whatever the hell I feel like, and some of that stuff is short-ish dresses (though not much shorter than knee length... still a bit sensitive about super short stuff because people are dicks at times.) and some of that stuff is pajamas or jeans and a nerdy t-shirt. I rarely wear makeup, because it's a pain in the ass to get all the eye makeup off easily. I wear what makes me feel good and comfortable at a given time. I'm also Nonbinary, so *shrug*

Den, my non-binary buddy

:3 I wear They/Them pronouns mostly. Occasionally She/Her.

I prefer they/them also, but I'm not mad if people use she/her for me.

Same, honestly. If I had my way, I wouldn't look as curvy, and I wouldn't have huge tracts of land, but right now, I can't do anything about the latter.
