>FAQ >What is a femboy? A femboy is a male that pursues a feminine appearance for himself whilst still identifying as male
>Are femboys trans? The majority of femboys are cisgendered. Femboy is not a 'stepping stone' to trans, it is a stand alone identity.
>Can trans post here? Trans people are welcome to post in /fbg/ and identify as femboy if they want, but this is not a trans thread.
>Why dont I ever see femboys irl? Femboys are often lumped in with trans people and are also subject to transphobia. For this reason, many do not present feminine in public, even if they would prefer to.
>Im in my 30s, is it too late for me to be a femboy? No, recent advances in the sciences of lifestyle and self care have made it possible to maintain a youthful appearance much longer than was possible in previous generations
>Do femboys have to be thin? Thin is the most popular body type, but there is a very dedicated fanbase for chubby femboys as well.
>Do you 'age out' of being a femboy? No, older femboys simply become femguys. You can continue the lifestyle as long as you wish.
>But I heard that 'femininity doesnt last'? Masculinity doesnt last either. Old people dont look masculine, they look like bulldogs. The simple fact is that beauty itself doesnt last, and this applies to both men and women equally. It is on all of us to maintain our appearances as long as we can.
>Any tips on how to look better? Genetics play a role in both facial aging and preventing hairloss, but you can help maintain your appearances through lifestyle and self care techniques. Most people grossly underestimate how long they can keep a youthful appearance, if theyre willing to put the effort in. Wear moisturizer and sunscreen. Avoid alcohol, smoking, and drugs. Wear a hat when you go outside. Post ITT for more>>37163127 mine's an absolute mess, I run a brush through it every now and then>>37163077 Do lots of core work. Crunches, hanging leg raises, etc. if your tummy/abs are your main goal. You can achieve everything you want thankfully from calisthenics and dumbbells so cheap simple and minimum of equipment ever needed. You can look up exercises for certain muscle groups. "Isolation exercises" is a label you'll see for that. An isolation would be something like a bicep curl, while a chin up would also work the bicep but as it works the back and so on too, it's a compound exercise. So consider that when you're choosing what exercises to do. Do you want all the effects or the main effect of that exercise?
As you're going just be aware of what any particular exercise does - what muscles it works. If you want size in those areas then work them. If you don't want size there, then don't work it. For men traps, forearms and necks tend to blow up fastest and for women those are very difficult bodyparts by comparison and those differences tend to cause the different body shapes even with muscular fit men and women. Obviously I am not including the giga-roiders on roids, HGH, insulin injections, peptides and god only knows what else....
Use the mirror as your guide to eyeball what does or doesn't need work as aesthetics are your goal. Do a few sets of an exercise to failure. When you work a bodypart give it time to recover after. You'll probably be able to tell when it is feeling normal and back to full strength again. It varies from person to person but about 2-3 times a week for a body part tends to be best so space it out to give max recovery (you grow in recovery, not during the exercise, that's the stimulus). You can keep a workout diary in an notebook of what you've done and what day, how many sets and reps or what weight or exercise. It's useful later to work out what is working and what isn't or what needs to be changed.
