What about a bishounen/pretty boy thread?

No traps or shotas or anything, just thin and androgynous/semi-androgynous guys who aren't super big/wide/glaringly masculine

Too specific?
>>
so like 99% of any given thread

>Too specific?
too broad
It would be like going on /c/ and making a thread for cute feminine teenage girls
also both of the ones you posted look pretty trap desu
>>
>>3000053

not a trap if he

a) is not cross-dressing

b) has relatively obvious male proportions (nothing that could be mistaken for curves)

c) is not posing/outwardly behaving in a stereotypically feminine manner

androgynous and/or bishounen meanwhile is typically some combination of

a) no facial hair

b) slender rather than muscular build

c) does NOT cross-dress or willingly attempt to pass for the other sex

d) generally (though not always) has little to no distinctly visible muscle mass

e) May have either short or long hair, and/or

f) more often than not has large eyes and a small face/indistinct chin and jaw

what more can you do to define androgyny and not fall into the full-blown trap category? Distinguishing between all these different types shouldn't be all that difficult

Sounds kinda like latent traps when you describe them that way.

OP here, would edit 1st post if I could, just use >>3000061 as a general guide

They may subjectively look pretty and somewhat effeminate (what do you think androgynous even means) but not to the point that you can just declare their gender either female or trap-kun with 99% confidence on the spot.
>>
>>3000066

so basically someone could tell you the same character is either male or female and it would seem believable in both cases without necessarily making them a trap/reverse trap

I always thought bishounen were guys like this... As in pretty skinny boys who still look at least a little masculine.

Guessing that Syo is right along the lines of what OP is looking for

>>3000061
>>3000234

I feel that there are a looooooooooot of tourabu boys who match up with that criteria

Zero probably. He was super pretty.
>>
>>3000053

the really long hair aside, no matter how hard I try I cannot see >>3000049 as a girl or a trap because apart from the hair there's literally nothing glaringly trappy or androgynous about him
