fvcking "pretty boy" looks

[n_p]

i've been told i've got pretty boy "girly" looks, which make me look gay. it is definately not the clothes i wear or my voice which is excessively deep, but my face. in my experience, the guys who get laid the most are the ones who look older, whilst the ones who look younger, like me, don't get enough

what chance do i have of becoming an alpha if i look gay?

would a bulking programme help me get any masculinity? i'm 145lbs at the moment. do u think a bulking programme would make my face look more masculine?

i'm growing my hair long just now to try to make me look more masculine. do u think long hair would go with a pretty boy look?

do u think blonde highlights thru my hair would make me look even gayer?

cheers guys

if you have a girly face then long hair will only make you look more feminine.

Cute, boyish face isn't a bad characteristic to have. In fact, if you work it correctly you could look really good. The hottest type of face (as I have been told by many girls) is the type that is manly but still retains a slight percentage of the boyish look.

I'm assuming you have a lot of baby fat on your face, you could cut down on that and show your jawline. Check the health and fitness forum. However, I would suggest bulking up then cutting down. How tall are you? if you're 6 ft then 145 is pretty skinny.

i'm 5'11 so i am really skinny

yes, i have sh1tloads of babyfat on my face
i considered cutting to show my jawline, but that would make me even skinnier so i think i'll bulk to 160 then cut back down to get rid of my babyfat. people have told me it goes away as u get older so maybe i should just keep on bulking

what do u think about pretty short hair with blonde highlights?

 

[ThaHotShot]

I can't comment on that since I don't know what you look like. Highlights work wonders for some people while making other look feminine. You need to consult a female friend to know whether it works for you.

I've actually tried to change my appearance towards being a "pretty boy" and have been mistaken for being gay on occasions. However, I have a good physique and I'm tall so it balances out.

If you want to bulk up, the first thing you need to do is eat lots of protein rich food and work out with weights. Or do 10 push ups. Have a rest, then do 9. Have another rest and do 8. Until you reach 1. Do this every 3-4 days and make sure you take every rep very slowly. The idea is not to accellerate your heart rate (as this burns body mass).

As long as you're eating enough protein and you keep this up, you'll notice the difference within a couple of months.

I lost a lot of weight last year, including muscle mass due to extreme dieting, so I sought professional help and this is the advice I was given. It has worked well for me.

 

[Dirtheart]

Btw. As you bulk up and tone your muscle, you'll probably find that your facial features become more defined. With me, the change was so dramatic, people who hadn't seen me for a few months hardly recognised me. They couldn't say what it was about me that had changed, but they all said it was an improvement. The compliments I received from women also changed from "cute" to "sexy".

You will get absolutely nowhere doing that pushup routine that dirtheart suggested.

u think u look gay so u wanna grow ur hair and add highlights? um....

 

[Dirtheart]

I'm just passing on the advice I was given by a qualified trainer and it worked fine for me. However, considering your weight, maybe it's best to start at 20 push ups and go down in 2s. Or just find the number that comfortably taxes you.

By no means do I claim to have a body-builder's physique, but my chest, arms and abs are defined (even beneath my clothes) and I have a "triangular" shape - which I read and hear is a big turn on for women.

For skinny people, the upper body (chest and shoulders) are where the work shows most so it's best to focus on those areas instead of an all out programme.

YES

If you want to look masculine, grow a beard, not a goatee, just something there and let your sideburns (the stretch of hair on the sides of your face) grow longer AND maybe grow a bit of moustache. Color your hair dark, although this is not neccesary if it is dark already.

 

[ScrewIt]

i got a solution

2 words -

facial hair

 

[n_p]

dirtheart, cheers for the help, but i'm already 3months into diesel's bulking programme, eating ****loads of protein.

if ure still bulking i'd suggest changing that routine of ures

u said bulking helps define ure facial features more. do u think it helps define them more than a cutting programme to remove babyfat?

screwit and legolas,

my sidies aren't coming thru enough yet. i guess it's just a matter of time though

the hair on my cheeks is light and clear. do u think it will take long b4 it starts to get darker or is every1 different?

You say you wanna look less boyish and your still bulking?? In that case you'll jus look like a puffed up balloon. You need to cut in order to increase the shapliness of your face, primarily your cheekbones and chin.

but i don't want to turn into a rickle of bones. i'm fairly skinny as it is

is there any way to surgically remove facial fat without scarring? and how much would it cost? just curious.

haha, you're a funny man. like someone else said, we don't know what you look like so it's hard to say what would look good to suit you. however, if you have a picture to show, you can add me on msn messenger; letters2cleo_@hotmail.com

i am a photographer from time to time and used to be a model scout (look for pretty girls that have potential to be a model) - i also have a good sense as to what looks pretty/beautiful. so if you want, send a pic my way, i'll tell you what to do.

Hey looking like a pretty boy is not always a bad thing at least ur not ugly. growing out your hair and highlighting it is definitely gonna make u look gay. getting some facial hair and working out is gonna help. Some people call me a pretty boy because i have nice clothes. Sometimes i like wearing the fitted faded jeans and the AF and AE stuff other times Ill wear the baggy jeans and the Ecko fit, Jordan shoes, air force ones, and Jerseys. The ladies like the way i dress. I wanted to look older so i decided to grow a beard and have it slightly trimed. I also got a eyebrow piercing. I dont know if that makes me look gay, but no one has made that comment and most girls like that look. I wanted to get out of that boyish look. girls like the facial hair but girls also like the nonfacial hair look, so I change it once in awhile. My advice is to keep working out, dont wear clothes that are too bright or too flashy,(dress nice but not flashy) dont have long hair. Keep your hair short or go bald. grow a beard see how people react. Oh yeah u definitely gotta put on some weight. 5'11'' 145 is kinda skinny. I weigh about the same and Im shorter than you. You gotta get to around 155 to 160.

Write english for god sakes b4? every1? ures? ure? WTF? Are you a lazy ass or something? Come one type it all.

About facial hair, everyone is different. Mine took till I was like 21 or 22 to even show up. And I still cannot grow a beard at 24!! I look friggin 18. Very good for later......if you know what I mean. For now, just color your hair black, and no spikes. Keep it down on the front.

 

[ScrewIt]

there's really nothing wrong with the pretty boy look.

i've met a few ppl i nthe past who've had the babyface look who were older than me. either your born with it or your not.

how you dress, attitude, personality, way you talk, grooming, image, looks...gives the impression to ppl of your character. find out which of these it is that makes ppl call you pretty boy and fix it

My looks are about perfect, IMO. I have the good face, but I have been told by several people that I seem to emit an aura of confidence. Perhaps this balances it out.

 

[jakethasnake]

I have the 'baby-face' too, but like these guys have said, working out and trimming down has given my face more chiselled contours. I still don't have the completely hollow cheeks of the 'Marlboro Cowboy', though. I guess it's genetics.


But trust me - you're still a freakin' BABY at 18. A little kid. All people your age are obssessed about looking older as all young boys that are competing with each other, but trust me, your youthful looks are your best friend. When I was 18 I looked like I was fvcking 15.


Just focus on other things like your body, confidence, and conversation/social skills. And when you're about 2-3 years older and your face really matures, you'll look youthful and fresh but full of vigor (the ideal situation). And trust me, this will last well into your middle age, when you'll look a decade older than half of your peers!
