What is yalls advice on looking a bit more androgynous? I don't really vibe with my appearance and need to improve it anyway. I'm a man, kinda a big one too. I don't like long hair.
Edit: I should have said this before, but I want to be subtle.
Skirts can be an effective tool for that, especially in the short term. Looking sorta manly while dressing sorta femininely basically cancels into androgyny.
Also maybe try a pixie cut or some other more feminine short haircut.
skirts, dresses - i used to rock a smock dress early in my transition all the time, cos it really helped with the dysphoria but also because its a smock-style cut it helps with changing the shape of the body
High waisted pants can be subtle while also being more femme coded, which can help with androgeny. T shirts with a more femme cut as well. Femme earrings, or neutral but dangly earings. Armwarmers. Overall just finding femme coded things and mixing them with masc coded things until you find the right mixture.

I guess possibly tighter/slimmer clothing might work? Depends a lot on exact body shape and such.
Maybe combine slimmer pants with sort of a poofy shirt/sweater? Mostly just spitballing but thats my first idea at least.
Earrings or other facial jewelry can help give that effect too I think, but might also give the impression of like a metalhead I guess.
Ooh, good ideas. Thank you.

God, I do love pixie cuts. I wonder if I could actually pull something like that off.

glitter beards and short shorts look good on anyone tbh
obviously find what works/feels good for you, but don't be afraid to play with norms, try out different styles etc to get there
