Actual transpeople are effete looking and have small frame, but if you're implying that there's such a thing as "unconscious" physical displays of GID, then no. There is only fagginess, or manliness.
>>
It's very easy to spot even hot transgenders.

Height, voice pitch, chin shape, hand size, even personality.
Seriously. Went to a tranny convention.4 girls in the room, but I feel as though one is a normie bitch. 5 minutes after listening to her I clock her as 100% transgender, the final nail being her hanging up the phone with a 'see you later faggot' to her boyfriend.

If looks don't give it away, their personality will.

Many AGP transwomen are quite masculine looking before they have surgeries or take hormones so, physically, they look very much like men.
You may be able to spot them, however, by their long hair, or love of feminine clothing/accessories.

I wish you all could experience how obnoxious this is for even a day.

Also, almost no one here is answering the question correctly except for >>8755138. OP asked for PHYSICAL traits, not BEHAVIOURAL traits. How you cut your hair is actually still behavioural; it's not a potential physical "tell" that something went wrong in your development.

Digit ratios is one of the few I'm aware of. I think it can also apply to toes.

I read once a doctor anecdotally observing that trans women (unluckily) tended to be tall on average, and speculated about a subclinical level of androgen insensitivity being the cause. I don't know if that's bullshit, though, or if there's any real data on that.

FtMs are more prone than cis women to having PCOS pre-transition. That's pretty well-established in the literature:

There are multiple autismfaces actually

I notice some trends in trans people I see but I wouldn't call it agp face and hsts face, there are probably a few for each gender (for example a lot of mtfs look like fucking morrowind elves, doesn't seem to discriminate based on orientation and I don't really buy it that it's just a male trait in general - most men don't have it nearly as bad as a lot of transgirls I've seen)

that is me.
i'm not sure I would consider myself trans, but i'm AGP as fuck for sure


I noticed that my voice while talking to guys is a lot higher pitched than when i'm talking while a female is around. It can even sound a bit strained because of trying to achieve a 'manly' sound.
Not sure if it's all guys that do this, or it's bi guys, or i'm just autistic.

Digit ratio correlates with sensitivity to androgens. It's not an either/or thing. If you have a lower digit ratio you are more sensitive to testosterone from the womb onward for both assigned men and women alike.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2577466/
http://www.pnas.org/content/106/2/623.full
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5227311/

tl:dr people who have a shorter digit ratio are more driven in sports, more successful on average in financial trading, and more willing to take risks and assert themselves across their lifetimes.

Your digit ratio doesn't just control what your physical appearance will be. It controls your baseline temperament and sensitivity to primary sex hormones across your entire lifespan.

This AGP's are autistic thing has to end. I'd probably classify as AGP and I used to work in disability care with a few autistic people.

Let me tell you now, there is nothing physically or mentally similar between Autistic people and AGPs.

Autistic people tend to:
Be quite short
Their index fingers are very short compared to their ring fingers
Their heads are largest at the jaw, smaller at the mid face and smallest at the top of the head. Triangluar.

AGPs are the inverse of that.

I can agree with you on the Morrowind Elves point though. I know I kind of looked like one pre-transition, Big upper head, high and wide cheekbones, long and thin chin/jaw and gaunt cheeks and a thin but angry looking brow ridge. The second you mentioned it I had a good laugh because its spot on for a few people I know.

I've never suggested that AGPs are autistic or similar, I mentioned autism because anon said there's an autism face and gay face so why not a trans face and I said there are different "autism faces" in different studies (likely correlating to different types of autism since it's not homogeneous - actually one purpose of research into dysmorphic features is that it might help identify different types with different causes and needs)

>I used to work in disability care with a few autistic people.
Which makes you naturally skewed towards low functioning autism (while transsexuals are more related to HFA/aspergers)

>This AGP's are autistic thing has to end.
Yeah most studies on co-morbidity are based on kids/teens so they're probably mostly HSTS anyway

>>8757940
>he went alt-right a while back and has posted fairly anti-trans views, not to mention he's married.
That sounds very trans anon, be on guard

>>8758315
This is legit science anon, but both are related to other variables like genes and shit so they're only useful for studying large groups of people
Trying to apply these to specific people is wrong but it's also wrong because people who do so don't understand the science they try to use and not because the actual science behind it is wrong
>>
>>8759678
Fair enough, suppose I didn't read the post you were replying to thoroughly enough.

I'm just going to assume that when you say "Which makes you naturally skewed towards low functioning autism" you're not actually calling me autistic but are referring to the clients I usually care for. On some level you're right but people with asp do tend to need assistance from support staff, especially in their youth.

I'm an AGP and I suspect i'm not neurotypical. Never was like the normie boys and it became even more extreme as I entered highschool and adulthood. But I don't fit all the HFA/Aspergers criteria either and I've improved somewhat in my later years. Although i'm a strongly introverted man now not a normie.

After hearing about the GD and autism link it made me suspect that many modern trans are just beta autist nerds with AGP. Although whether AGP is an intersex disorder or an ETLE remains to be seen.

>Cara's avatar
>hirsutism
...Huh?

If you're an FtM with pre-T hirsutism, that's a sign of high androgens. If you then have EITHER polycystic ovaries or irregular ovulation, you probably have PCOS so long as the hirsutism isn't explained by something else (like a tumor). See chart.

I had polycystic ovaries and several signs of irregular ovulation, but I was otherwise asymptomatic (no signs of high androgens, no insulin resistance, etc.).

>>8757707

Did you try this one on your teachers, I wonder.

>>8757733
>It's not an either/or thing.
Wasn't suggesting such. It's probably not surprising people look to something like that for validation, though.

>>8757914
I found a site that said that the average 5'7" man in the UK wears a size 7 in UK men's sizes. That's apparently a 7.5 in US sizes, and I wear in 8 in most shoes, so about average or slightly larger than average for a dude my height. I couldn't find similar data for women, though. Though there's so much debate about whether there's much relationship between foot size and height that I doubt we could find a solid relationship for trans people.

>>8758315
>peer-reviewed studies

Also, various facial measurements actually DO correlate to personality traits. We've probably always known this instinctively, but we didn't have a systematic way of measuring it in the 19th century.

>>
>>8760033
That's bullshit and you know it. Let the meme die already.

Many asps may be AGP but very few AGPs are asps.

The reason most AGPs act weird is because of poor socialisation during their youth, which itself is a result of stigma.

I've met a ton of extroverted and socially adept AGPs in my time, heck I am one.

Spend enough time around people on the actual autistic scale, as I unfortunately had to do, and you'll see how stupid you sound for suggesting this. Asps and auts act so radically different from what you think, they are probably the most infuriating group of people to have ever existed.

Don't think I'm picking on all mental disorders by the way. I'm only picking on autism, because its the most insufferable one to be around.

Spending time with down syndrome people, 9/10 one of the most fulfilling experiences in life btw.
>>
>>8762436
I was very introverted and awkward as a teenage AGP, also depressed and anxious. I didn't socially fit in with normies and never had a GF. I was kinda childish and in my own little world sometimes.

Does that seem like I'd be on the autism spectrum or something different alltogether?

Started getting dysphoric at 19 when my chest hair started growing, I suspect I got another jolt of T and my brain couldn't handle it. My teeth started descending as soon as I started E, lolll

I also suspect there's something wrong with my hypothalamus (which also happens to control gonad function) because I never feel hungry or thirsty regardless of my mood. Insulin issues also run in my family, which also happens to be controlled by the hypothalamus. My grandfather on my mother's side only had daughters and one of his testicles never descended. He died of a heartattack in his forties. (heart issues + undescended tested are symptoms of low testosterone sensitivity/high estrogen sensitivity). My dad is effeminate and his older brother was gay.

I never had a chance, did I?

Index finger to ring finger length ratio measured from fingertip to the lowest fold where it meets your hand. It's been proven to be related to the amount of Natalie testosterone, with longer ring finger == more testosterone.

Also I was always eyeballing it, but I just measured my fingers with a tape measure, and it turns out my index finger is actually longer than my ring finger. Kill me pls.

>>8763195
Well that's good, I guess.

Also yeah I can't put on any muscle or fat either. Had to eat upwards of 4000 calories to gain anything while I was still on testosterone. I still have to eat around 3000 to gain any weight.

This thread is really interesting to me.

I've never been a very masculine guy, behaviorally nor physically: slender frame, not much body hair, 5'8'', thin arms and legs, small hands, and I look over ten years younger than I really am. Gaining weight and muscle has always been really difficult. And yes, my index fingers are longer than my ring fingers.

I'm also bi (though a generally prefer women). The more I read up on the topic makes me wonder if I'm not borderline trans. It's weird, I've never really thought of this before. What are the chances I really *am trans*?

If that's the case, I'm 33. I doubt I'd be able to do anything about it, even if I wanted.
>>
>>8763314
Most trans women are bi or lesbian (roughly 31% and 29% respectively). Only approx. 23% are into guys.

So if you were to transition, you're pretty normal as far as far as trans women's sexuality is concerned.

You dont take the first dose and instantly become a trans girl. Similarly if you ran out of pills your 'trans' status is independent of any shipping issues or temporary gaps in treatment.

There are debates over whether you need dysphoria to be trans or not and further arguments whether you need dysphoria to be diagnosed before any 'trans' status. You'll get a ton of answers but based on your circumstances, yeah you're pretty clearly trans.
>>
>>8762569
Funny how it's usually the tards on this board shouting "correlation doesn't equal causation!" but they immediately forget about that when it doesn't suit them.

There's no reason whatsoever to believe that PCOS causes females to be trans - particularly not when gender dysphoria usually presents younger than PCOS.

The actual cause of both is probably a third thing (or, better, a combination of other things) that are connected to both. E.g. there's a gene variant that affects sex hormones which is more common in FtMs than cis women...bet it's somehow a factor in both.

>>8762436
I know several people on the autism spectrum (professionally diagnosed), and they are sometimes irritating but mostly very charming.

Retards are awful, I avoid them at all costs.

>>8762599
This.

>>8762611
No, that's a correlation which is only meaningful to groups and not individuals. Lesbians are more likely to be left-handed, doesn't mean right-handed lesbians are not really gay.

AGP is a dumb meme. There's nothing that weird about it as a fetish, it's relatively common in both trans and cis people. Trans people of all sexual orientations have similar outcomes with transition (a direct refutation of Blanchard's claims) and there's no reason whatsoever to "type" trans people by sexual interests. It's not clinically meaningful in any way. If you have "AGP" sexual interests, you probably developed them as a coping skill. If you have gender dysphoria, you are trans. The end.

>>8763314
OTOH, if you don't experience gender dysphoria than you're NOT trans. Being less masculine obviously doesn't mean you're trans! Human variation is human variation.

>As babies and children, XXY males may have weaker muscles and reduced strength. As they grow older, they tend to become taller than average. They may have less muscle control and coordination than other boys of their age.[13]

>During puberty, the physical traits of the syndrome become more evident; because these boys do not produce as much testosterone as other boys, they have a less muscular body, less facial and body hair, and broader hips. As teens, XXY males may develop breast tissue[14] and also have weaker bones, and a lower energy level than other males.[13]

>By adulthood, XXY males look similar to males without the condition, although they are often taller. In adults, possible characteristics vary widely and include little to no sign of affectedness, a lanky, youthful build and facial appearance, or a rounded body type with some degree of gynecomastia (increased breast tissue).[15] Gynecomastia is present to some extent in about a third of affected individuals, a slightly higher percentage than in the XY population. About 10% of XXY males have gynecomastia noticeable enough that they may choose to have cosmetic surgery.[16]

I don't know if you want an honest answer, but those things don't exactly correlate with autism. In fact what you describe sounds closer to ADHD or ADD.

Autism actually only rarely correlates with depression.

Things that correlate with autism are like:

You have difficulty understanding what people were saying when they speak to you. If you think they mean something else entirely or get told that you don't understand sarcasm regularly.

If you're unable to relate to people on an emotional level (not the same for physical pain), example being a stressed mother who doesn't get enough sleep is complaining but you tell her to just sleep more or to get on with it.

You do realise you're using an anecdote about the few people you know against a person that has worked with probably at least 20 aut or asp people in a workplace environment and in unison with mental health professionals.

If they're borderline and they don't seem annoying as all hell to you then guess what, they're probably on the not autistic side of the line.

Retardation can be a hassle but its very dependent on the individual. Still retards hardly get as violent as autistic people will, they're just difficult to work with because you have to force them to do the basics.

I'm going to stop here though because this is literally giving me Nam flashbacks to all the hair pulling and punches I've had to put up with thanks to all those "charming" autistic people.

Other than not having a small chin, I roughly followed that developmental pattern. I even had noticeable gyno at 16. Didn't help me in the slightest transitioning though, I still look like a guy. If you're implying you never had a chance to not transition then consider yourself lucky. I never had a chance at being either gender!

I'm cool with an honest answer. It's funny you say ADD because I do have trouble concentrating. My mind is prone to wander. I was diagnosed with type 2 bipolar but didn't have severe enough ADD symptoms to get diagnosed I guess. Also have a lot of short term and long term memory issues I don't know if that correlates with ADD.

It definitely does sound like ADHD or ADD then. You're probably lucky, being diagnosed ADHD or ADD was once way to common and the meds were harmful to kids in more ways than they were beneficial. I've seen a lot of kids whose minds wander and who live in a little world of their own. Funnily enough, they may not have had all to many friends and people may have thought them introverted, but when you get to know them they can be just as socially capable and and can tell some really good stories. Do you find you have a very active imagination? If so there probably isn't anything wrong with you at all, you're just particularly imaginative.

Well I was all drugged up on Zoloft, Paxil and Risperdal as a teenager so i'm probably damaged in different ways. Was drugless in my 20s and now in my 30s i'm a pothead.

Used to be very imaginative but not so much anymore. Although occasionally I can have imaginative moments.

You do realize I don't give a flying fuck? "Autistic people are the most infuriating people to have ever existed" is not an expert observation, it's an opinion. MY opinion, being close friends with both Aspies and people diagnosed with some form of autism, is that they are sometimes irritating as fuck but often also some of the best people I know. Sounds like you have dealt mostly with people on the very low-functioning end of the scale. Frustration with their issues is understandable, but "the most infuriating people ever" was harsh words for everyone spectrum.

I will never like retards. I can't fucking stand them. It's like a kind of torture to spend ten minutes around a Downie; sort of like being locked in a closet and forced to stare at a white wall while listening to scratchy static. This may not be a "fair" or "nice" reaction, but neither is saying autistics are the worst people ever.

"Borderlines" was clearly a reference to people with Borderline Personality Disorder. And if you've ever been close to a borderline, you know they are something else - probably the most wildly unpredictable, unstable and emotionally manipulative people you could meet outside of an institution. You'd think someone who works in the mental health field would know what the term meant.

ADHD/ADD is a nonsense diagnosis. It's not real.

ADHD is the single best-understood and most-studied neurodevelopmental disorder. People with ADHD have differing brain mass, differing amounts of white matter, different brain waves and differing behaviour of neurotransmitters compared to non-ADHD people.

Why don't you deny the moon landing next? Idiot.
