    Okay so I’ve been thinking of being more feminine myself. I’ve started painting my nails and Im really feeling that direction. But I don’t want to attract strait men (ew gross). How to be fem boy but attract female or other fem boy?

      My best advice is not to worry about it. Everyone likes femboys, so you just decline any invitations you receive from men in the same way you would decline unwanted advances from a woman/enby/etc. you find unattractive.

      more women want to date me now because i present as a femboy. it’s hilarious, but understandable. they feel safer around me generally and appreciate makeup/style choices and my higher attention on emotions which i learned through the queer community.

        I mean, it’s a pretty effective filter. Someone who paints their nails and wears women’s clothes from time to time is at the very least unlikely to be some misogynistic asshole. I’m sure there are some exceptions, but as a general rule, it’s a good simple filter.

      I wouldn’t not dress/style yourself more feminine because you don’t want to attract straight men.
