I originally posted this in reply to another topic, but I think it would be better off in the wild. Fly free, my pretty!

I like “femme of centre”.
Picture a scale. Way over on the left at -10 is Wolverine, dripping testosterone and sweat, over on the right at +10 is Paloma Faith in something pink and frilly. Bang in the middle is “normal”, whatever the hell that is.

-10 -9 -7 -6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 +1 +2 +3 +4 +5 +6 +7 +8 +9 +10
Question – how far femme of centre are you? Me? +3, maybe +4 on a bad day.
You?

+4 bad day? I think you have that incorrect, the higher the +, the better the day.

For me its about + 3 daily with + 5-6 on great days - pink is good !

Hi Connie,
I'm always "femme of center"! I probably spend most days about +3 or +4 but can get to +6 or +7 in a heartbeat.
Jillian

Hi Connie,
I'm not confident I've got my head around your scale. Between Low Minuses to Low Pluses for me generally, although my recent makeover might have stretched my awareness that it could drift more femme of centre. I'd like to suggest that 'normal', or the middle on your proposed scale is essentially androgynous territory, no? Be it either a man with lessened masculinity and obvious female aspects or vice versa?

I would say +5/+6.
I'm way more femme than most think but not quite as femme as i long to be. Someday.
And i agree with Grace about sweaty testosterone. Eeeewwww!
Hi Connie! I'm going to put myself on the femme edge of the bell curve at 6 or 7, that's fine, I'd rather not be too extreme. And I spent too many years in man mode, it did take a bit out of me, 😄

“…Wolverine, dripping testosterone and sweat…”
Best morning coffee in a while!
I’m like you, Connie, a +4ish on a bad day, 8 or 9 on a good one.

Interesting!
Im still not sure, what am I comparing myself to?
As a human being, I'm on the femme side most days. As a transsexual, I'm probably in the middle. As a transgender person, I'm far more masculine than most.
Moreover, if I'm going to dinner with my husband, I'm a solid 8 or 9 femme. I literally stand at doors and wait for him to open them. But if I'm changing my oil, jeans and a ponytail are my thing and I'm probably swearing like a sailor. At those times, I'm a solid 7 or 8 on the guy side...all that's missing is a beer, a belch, and scratching my nether regions.
Point is, I don't know how to answer. As a transsexual woman married to a heterosexual man, you'd think I'd be fairly femme...but real life changes things. Ever go to the dentist wearing makeup? Change a flat tire? Life has a way of bringing us back to ourselves, I think.
I guess I'll answer as a human being. Overall, I'm probably right near the middle. I've chosen to live female, but that doesn't mean it's all I am.
Thanks for making me think. Hugs.

Normally I think it would be a +4 for a normal day and then it can go to a +8 on certain days or occasions. I am attributing that to behavior as well as dress.
Hi Connie Most days I am center I out mostly in woman's clothes just trying to fit in. I am trying to be androgynous but I think I am only fooling my self. I get the looks for those who pay attention to fashion and matching outfits. I would love to be more flamboyant and dress with more color Sadly again I am maybe a+ 1. Making a deal with my wife I would never break..

I think I'd probably be +5 or 6 I have very feminine gestures and body language and I like wearing clothes that run the thin grey line. I often style my hair some what feminine to and usually wear a little make up, some foundation and a bit of powder too. I like to keep people guessing.
This is almost impossible for me to answer. I'd say I move between -8 and +8. Some of my hobbies are pure testosterone and adrenaline. I am in my shop literally daily making something with metal. But when I'm in bed it's bralette and forms with ruffle panties or nightie. I am all over the map. And not that slow curve either, nah more like that line on a seismograph during an 8.5.
But I guess that does make me an 0 average. Sooo
