Wait I never thought about that ._. One time I heard a guy talking to his friends, and one of them said “Bro you have feelings for *insert female name here*?” Have feelings- Don’t they just say crush like the rest of us

Either one can make the first move! If you wanna make the first move, go for it!

So, the thing is, at that age (12-13 right?) we boys are basically idiots. And to completely truthful with you, yes a lot of boys will go by looks at that age. Not all, maybe around half. I personally didn't have a 'type' at that age, but I did have a 'standard of beauty' and here's the funny thing, most of the girls I thought were pretty, my friends thought were ugly and vice-versa, with a few in the middle ground. EVERY girl feels the way you do at some point, that they are not pretty enough to be asked out! But here's the secret, so does every guy! Also, quite often he's too scared to ask you out because he thinks you wouldn't like him. Oh, and the law of the universe says the more you want a boyfriend/girlfriend the longer you'll be single, so just enjoy life and if an opportunity comes along (or you feel brave enough to ask sum1), go for it.

I recommend just being your natural self and focus on enjoying hanging out with your friends, learning as much as you can about the world around you, and developing your unique personality. There'll be plenty of time when you're older to date and to have boyfriends; at your age, just enjoy being who you are.

It helps to be attracted to your so but we also want someone who is fun to be around and easy to talk to.

yes

From my experience (although for me it was with girls) if they flirt with you (play tag, try to be funny or get your attention often) they are likely attracted to you. If they bully you like "Donkey boi" mentioned they're just an A-hole. Call em out, embarrass them, dust leave but don't stay there and allow them to do that crap to you. You're too valuable to take that crap from somebody.

Well, lots of pockets are nice and I think it’s stupid that only guys generally get pockets, as they are good to have regardless of gender. As for “beauty standards”, I recommend a documentary called “The Mask We Live In”, as it does a pretty good job of looking at some of those male standards.

Don't be beating yourself up Cassie. Beating yourself up doesn't do anything positive for you so just keep movin.

Heck yeah! I love ‘em, and it usually shows.

It is a societal issue. The truth is, girls mature much sooner than boys. Adolescent boys are just as emotionally confused as the girls are, but are taught to hold in their feelings and tough it out rather than talk about their problems. I am in my 50s so I imagine it is more acceptable for boys to express feelings now, but things may not have changed that much. But you can bet that the hard case tough boy is just as emotionally fragile as the quiet kid who sits by himself that no one seems to notice. They both need support and help dealing with their emotions, but rarely get it and are expected to not be a (insert derogatory slang word for weak male) and just get on with it. Boys don't cry after all.

Ok as a dude that cross dresses and use girl clothes. That s**t is comfy as hell. I foocken love my leggings and skirt

i think its just a personality thing because my teacher does it and hes straight (he told us im not assuming)

I feel nude with out one ;—;

I can answer the girl ones! Some females prefer to speak about how they look because they need tips, or they are just interested in the subject. For example, if you really liked art, and you spoke about it a lot, YOU know it’s because it’s a topic you love. I, for one, am on the shopping side! I like seeing new things, and testing them out, or even making fun of the things I would never buy.

A little taller than me is ok but looking up a persons nose is a turn off.

I think they easiest way to say why guys like boobs is to say "they have magical powers". Honestly not sure why we like them so much but we do. As far as size, to each their own.

As a girl who doesn't wear makeup, idk. Maybe other girls like feeling safe and protected and concealing their flaws, and the process of putting on make up and feeling nice is supposedly relaxing too. Besides, people like dressing up. Make up is another individual way to do so.

I think that while both genders are equally intelligent and empathetic as a whole, their brains still form different ways (different hormone ratios, etc) and girls can bond easier in that way with other girls than they can with boys and vise versa.
