A Girl Who looks like a Boy, This Is Sad... Options

[Myokko]

This is so sad.... Im a girl, yet, some people say I look like a boy....Because of my haircut...which is short.....And with my glasses on, I look more of a boy... And just recently , my mom called me her son... That made me feel kind of bad cuz Im a girl.

I just want to know....Has anyone ever felt the same way that I have felt? Or been in a similar situation? If so, please tell me about it. I would like to connect with someone who knows how I feel.

[Myokko]

No...I've never experienced that..

Don't feel bad  I'm guessing, wait for your hair to grow longer, and just dress extremely girly..

Wait...but then you're changing the way you are...nvm...

When someone says you're a boy, tell them, "I'M A FREAKEN GIRL!! (or whatever it is you want to say)".

Once your hair grow, I don't think anyone will mistake you for a boy.  Is your hair layered, or like, extreme hair cut that looks like a boy hair cut?

*Bleh* Sorry I couldn't help much, just try to ignore everyone's rude comments, and remind them you're a FEMALE not a MALE!

*sigh* thanx...and yes, my hair IS layered...

i saw aa boy who looks,sounds,dresses like a girl..which that is really sad too
you can wear make-up...and make sure your eyelashes look long, and wear more jewlery

You can be girly and have short hair. Look at Mariska Hargitay. And try to get a more girly style for glasses. Like a light shade of pink.

And if all else fails, start stuffing your bra.

I have short hair and glasses and people don't think I'm a guy!



See? :D Just..be..like a girl. I dunno..

[coconutter]

Aw, that's okay. Don't change a bit. Tell your mom not to call you that again if it bothers you

[maia_dc]

Change your style to flatter your more feminine side. Halters, shortshorts, tight jeans, tighter shirts, etc. Growing your hair out and wearing lipgloss and some makeup should help too.

And I'm sure that once you get older and your body fills out, there will be no more misconceptions.

[Saeglopur]

Yeah um... I haven't had that happen... but it's okay. :pat: Wear a skirt.

[hiromi]

I'd rather look more like a guy... but I'm a strange child, so that doesn't matter.

Try to wear something girly, wear jewelery, etc.

[yupimchuck]

i have short hair too.
and ive had people tell me that id look like a boy if i cut my hair off.

i think i look like a boy but i dunno about other people.
i sure act like one :/

see.

a few years ago my hair was cut way too short... and I looked just like a noy. Waiters at restaurants would say, "Sor, what would you like?" and it was so horrible... i cried and cried... the best thing you can do is wear makeup and dress in really girly clothes. thats what I did.

[..:loveee.NuTTii]

Aw-just try wearing more feminine things. Wear makeup. Stuff your bra.
Don't get bummed. My mom's always calling me Alan instead og Alana. It's just 'cause she has a lot on her mind. I'm sure your mom didn't mean it.

yeah and keira knightley too, plus she's really flat so she doesn't have feminine curves but she still looks like a lady.

see.

i don't think so, the make up, the hairstyle and the eyebrows give it all away

[iheartjohn]

You know, try wearing mascara and black eyeliner. It'll add femininity.

[Nicolatofu]

People like natalie portman and demi moore were like BALD but they still look feminine. Try adding a little makeup to your daily routine.

Something similar happened to me.. when I was in 4th grade, I had extremely short hair. I nessicarily didn't look like a boy.. but I once went bike riding with my mom. I wore a helmet back then.. and you couldn't see any of my hair under the helmet. Well, this lady was walking her dog and she had a little boy on a bicycle w/ training wheels riding right next to her.. and she was like to the little boy, "Oh, look at that boy! You'll be able to ride your bike just like him someday!" I never corrected her, but it made me feel pretty shitty

Anyways, maybe you can wear more jewelry and dress in like skirts so people will know that your a girl. Also, you can try makeup.

[sunissed14127]

I've never had that happen, but I guess if ya wanna look more like a girl, You could dress girly, wear makup, & let your hair grow out.

[misskentucky]

Well I don't think I really look like a guy but to my guy friend's I'm one of the guys. I have mostly guy friends. Try dressing like a girl, growing your hair out. Wear a little makeup. If you feel uncomfortable doing that, just stay the way you are. Who cares what you look like?

[demolished]

a skirt,
spaghetti strap clothes
long glove (up to your elbow)
a thick frabic (to wrap around your arms)
face makeup
make your hair like Yuna part 2 (final fantasy)

[blogdeleted]

are you a hot looking boy? no offence..
some girls can look like hot guys yet still recognised as a girl.
I'm sorry if that dosn't make sense, but I used to look like a guy at one stage where I got annoyed and grabbed a pair of scissors and ... whoops. whole chunk of my fringe and side gone. then i tried to fix it up.. and whoops. But it was fun in the mornings, short hair is fixable. You can always spike yourself two pairs of ears or 'horns' someone called mine.. or just wear a hat.

whoop[s sorry..double post

my mom called me her son...      

hehe gotta admit thats pretty funny tho

[demolished]

whaat ? you left her nothing with a quote.

Nice story.

[redpeony]

I remember the year I went into grade 5, I think it was, I was the biggest tomboy ever and wore baseball caps with short hair. I was there on the first day of school with two of my much girlier friends and a teacher came up to us and said something along the lines of, "Look, it's three girls! No... two girls and a boy! No... three girls!... No...."

[kill.t3h.r0cK]

I look like a hot guy...I don't wanna be conceited, but I think I like looking like a guy than a girl. I'd totally bang myself if I were a guy. >__< I know, I'm weird, but yes, I look like a guy w/ large hoop silver earrings! My mom wants me to change my style because of the appearance I give off. Btw, my hair is pretty short, the front is wispy at the end of my face, but the back is shaved, it's about an inch long?

Don't worry, we can look like hot boys together. =P
