Ladyboy feet

[Guest]

I've seen so many near perfect ladyboys, and then you look at the feet and they're size 12 (or European 46).

I did a photoshoot of Jane. She is about 6'2". Every part of her is delicated except monstrous feet.

It seems hormones don't affect feet, but they do affect almost every other part of the body, like the hands and shoulders for example.

Any theories, comments?

I don't imagine that any amount of hormones (or any drugs) will change the bone structure of a man's feet. It's difficult to 'soften up' this part of the body so the best thing to do is wear some shoes!

Shoulders may appear more rounded because of the feminine stance adopted by ladyboys rather than the erect posturing of 'real' men. Of course we are all familiar with botox injections in the hips and other methods of enhancements which make a man look like a woman. The shaving of the adam's Apple and the breast implants, etc.

The most genuine-looking male to female transgendered people are rather slightly built men. These 'ladyboys' slip into Thai society pretty much un-noticed and live and work as real 'girls.' This is where Thailand (and Asia as a rule) have an advantage over many cultures and countries.

Of course the more manly a man is the more noticable are his shortcomings when trying to look like a woman. And the older the man becomes the more obvious his birth-sex is.

The allure of Chiang Mai ladyboys is obvious here... they are (almost all) slightly built, pretty, young and effeminate boys. Almost perfect candidates for 'intersexing.'

(I often refer to Chiang Mai as the "Capital City Of Ladyboys!')

A 6' 2" ladyboy with big feet? Well - it shouldn't really come as much of a surprise should it?

I'm not so sure you're even seeing the whole picture.

you know everyone assumes the chinese were just real bastards for foot-binding. did anyone consider that asian women or people in general just have huge honking feet? (compared to their bodies)

all the asian girls i know at school i notice have big feet.
my girlfriend (korean) has canoes for feet.

it may just be a general human trait of foot size being about the same range or average, and the bodies are more varied between races.

Interesting....all the asian lb's and women i know have small feet.... :rock:
probably because i have a very distinct fetish for feet and shoes, so it might be that i only choose those, but looking at feet in general i've to say that i never noticed big feet in asia (man, have a look at the birmingham trannies, than you know what big feet are!!!). i also never go for those large - former muay thai fighter - amazone type of lb's...
what actually does happen that many girls have wide feet with toes spread wider than normally. it's a result of growing up barefoot, running around in the sand and hardly wearing shoes - only flip-flops - for the first 15 years. that makes them look bigger than they actually are. you might have noticed that some of them have problems to wear slim elegant pumps. that's why!

That is one of reasons of course,and you see that especailly in s.e. asian countries where the climate 'invites' going barefoot or flip-flopping around.
it does seem also a kind of ethnicity issue that affects thais, indonesian, philipino and malays against for example chinese whom tend to have smaller feet.
there you see the average chinese man having smaller feet than the average thai or indonesian man. being ladyboys men, there you go...
however, a 6'2" lb as ziggy pointed out, no matter which ethnic provenience she could be, would hardly have tiny feet

Actually HGH affects hands and feet, and they can grow at any stage in life. As estrogen and estrodial can increase HGH through binding with SHBG affecting homeostasis, ladyboys might be getting big feet along with greater height.

I'm not familiar, technically speaking, with what the real effect of estrogens and estrodials can have on the human body but if the really stimulates HGH as you say, then some collateral effects in hands, feet and jaws should be seen. Which is a characteristic you often see in bodybuilders that have been taking HGH, to have developed big jaws together with bulk hands, and probably feet.
Groundhog, since you seem to know about these things, care to elaborate more.
Nice avatar by the way

Big Giant ugly Feet are NOT so bad. Atleast you can cover them up without ruining the moment.
Now, putting a bag over her head would deffinantly ruin the moment.

Hello Mirimark,

I was told two bags - one for her and one for you in case hers slipped off

Well, I asked the quesiton mainly because every other part of their body seems feminine, including hands. Most LBs have very feminine hands, waist, shoulders, arms, face. Everything seems feminized, but feet, NOT!

So it seems to me, despite theory, estrogen affects everything except feet!

Hello Ziggystardust,

One other possiblity is the feet start to grow before puberty is reached. Most transsexuals don't start taking hormone tablets until the onset of puberty.

Maybe the place to try and prove/disprove this would be Brazil as from what I have read they start taking hormones at about 9-10 years old.

Bodybuilders tend more towards testosterone and other anabolic steroids. HGH is too expensive for wide use, and getting harder and harder to get in the States (figure $5K to $10K annually for Humatrope which is the preferred product ... you can no longer get Jintropin in the States). HGH wasn't even available until a few years ago when recombinant DNA production became available. It was available in the 1980s at about $20K to $100K annually, made from human pituitary glands (mainly Russian as I understand) but some cases of prion-based CJD put an end to all distribution of human derived HGH. Anyway, it is the testosterone that tends to stimulate the jaw/foot/hand growth due to its androgenic qualities (the maleness producing). The anabolic properties build muscle which is what BB want.

So HGH does its own thing. It tends to build cartilage in the joints, causes the creation of new cells including muscle and bone (in the hands and feet) ... whereas androgenic steriods just take the same muscle cells and make them bigger or stronger (I'm not sure how it works with the jaw, but definitely AAS tend to give you that Arnold jaw). BB takd HGH to get the new cells, and also to lower the chance of injury long term by building cartilage.

Anything that tends to elevate HGH (including both testosterone and estrogen) will make the feet and hands grow. You have to note that ladyboys actually have a lot more of testosterone, estrogen and estrodial than could ever naturally occur ... they are just loading up on these things ... so they will tend to have a somewhat unnatural balance of all of their anabolic / sex-related hormones (including HGH, LH, FSH, etc.)

Thanks for the compliment on the avatar

BTW, did you know that in Europe in Chaucer's day big feet were a sign of great beauty (as was a gap in the front teeth)

I had heard that in prarie days you could tell a Nebraska girl by her big feet and oversized right toe, the result of years of flipping cow patties in to bags to use for cooking fuel.

When I was young we rated the ladies by bags also...they'd be 2,3, 4, 5 or more bags.....

But no empty bags. That was: How many bags of flour would it take to find the wet spot....

[snejana_demientrovska]

well one thing is the bone is what our feets moulds and the bones are not affected through hormonal change cause its the responsiblity of the growth hormones not our sex hormones

well we all see a lot of ladyboy with feminine structure no matter how large they are we see them as girls like big girls cause of the hormone change but only thing that would tell that they are ladyboy is when you look at their feet well the taller the girl is the bigger the feet is

well i do get to a lot of shoe store and sometimes ask if where the shoe is made from if its on asia then i get the maximum size if its on the US or anywhere in europe well the minimum one there are times when i get so envy at those beautiful highheels and boots cause none of fit me and only for ggs size

well i must admit that its the only thing that we girls coudnt hide and coudnt lie about our foot size but not just the foot size but its structure which is way different from the girls foot
