My dysphoria would never allow me to wear something like that. I can't stand anything that reminds me that I'm built like a fridge and look like I'm cosplaying a Sasquatch with alopecia.

Both seem to work.

I personally don't think so. It's more a gender thing than a body looks thing. I'm nonbinary but I haven't been able to pursue transition for health reasons. So I still look like a cis male. I'm 6'2" tall, my shoulders are wide enough that I legitimately have to walk sideways through some doors to keep from shoulder checking a wall. I'm just large and don't like being reminded that most everyone that sees me just sees a man.
