    Is it weird that as a trans guy I feel more comfortable shopping for shoes in the women's section and buying unisex styles rather than the boys section? I would wear men's shoes if my feet were big enough but going to the boys section just feels wrong. I'm almost 27. I don't wanna wear kids shoes :dry:

    No, it isn't weird. I think the same.

    Thanks. I was just worried people won't take me seriously as a trans guy but if I was wearing kids shoes, I don't even think I could take myself seriously.

    There is generally very little difference between older teen and men's shoe styles so the difference would be less noticeable aside from shoe size. If someone does notice just tell them you have smaller than average feet. Men's body proportions are equally as variable as women. Not all men are massive meatheads with big hands and feet.

    lol, can we trade shoe sizes? I can't even shop for women's shoes in store because I have giant man-ski-feet.

    I sometimes shop in the women's shoes because I have smaller feet as well. As long as you can steer clear of the clearly female looking shoes, nobody will notice probably.
