Historically, the word androgynous was applied to humans with a mixture of male and female sex characteristics. Many people use “Tom Boy” in crude sense of humor for such girls particularly if she is flat chested or have small boobs. Androgyny is the combination of masculine and feminine characteristics into an ambiguous form. Androgyny may be expressed with regard to biological sex, gender identity, or gender expression. As a form of gender expression, androgyny can be achieved through personal grooming, fashion, or a certain amount of THT treatment. Usually masculine traits are categorized as agentic and instrumental, dealing with assertiveness and analytical skill. Feminine traits are categorized as communal and expressive, dealing with empathy and subjectivity. If your wife is showing all these qualities of boldness, analytical skills, social in your family and groups, communicative, dealing with empathy and subjectivity you should be proud of her and support her for all what she is.
You both should feel fine because it is about what you like and what makes you happy not what other people think. I do not know why you or someone else says you look like a man but these are some things that may help you both to understand the issue. I think a lot of it has to do with our personality and how we present ourselves as well as our outward appearance. No matter how clear your self-image may be in your mind, it may not reflect most of your reality. Our inner psychologies and insecurities have far more influence over our self perceptions than almost any of us realizes.
Behavior: self-confidence, posture, and speaking that seemed less ‘girly’.
Shorter hair resembles ‘tomboy’ look that she may find irresistible.
Dress: less skirts and dresses and more stuff that either seemed androgynous or downright manly.
Depending on what culture you are in there are almost always cues that differentiate males and females. take pains to “dress like a girl” (not necessarily frilly little dresses, but - perhaps tops that emphasize her breasts, shoes with a bit of a heel, outfits that are “stylish” for females, etc. use some degree of makeup - even if she is not a big makeup fan,
If she is out in public smoking or drinking, there are “styles” that tend to be seen as more masculine or feminine as well.
People who identify as women wear a lot of different things to signify their female gender. There may be things that you will feel more or less comfortable with to change your appearance.
Some women like to wear long hair. Some women like jewelry. Some women like pastel colors. Some women like skirts and dresses. Some women like makeup of various sorts. Some women like nail polish. Some women wear clothes that accentuate their curves. Any of these would make her more likely to be read as female. In fact, the femaleness can sometimes be even more convincing / fascinating if it is a bit underplayed, rather than over-emphasized.

Great answer. You know, it's to each their own.
I've been told I look like a man since I was 18 years old. I'm muscular for a female and I don't wear girl clothes. I live in board shorts and Hawaiian shirts. I'm terribly short, though. Five foot two. I don't think there are too many men that height. When their hear my voice, it usually disabuses them of their error and of course they can't see my face and the lipstick I'm wearing... So there's that too!
And I do maintain my house by getting up on a ladder and cleaning out my gutters and pickaxing my front yard to install a bioswale, or grass squares. Guys who've dated me know I'm not a man.
So that's what counts!
First of all, it matters that its your eyes and your taste and it is your wife who gives a shit what others think , they can take a hike, they are jeolous , its me to say or want the way my wife looks , let me tell you its your life others can f^& theirselves ok so live your life and be happy.
I don't think there is a comeback from that. You nailed him. He should just slink away with his tail between his legs.

i would tell him he better check between his legs to make sure he is indeed still a man cause the nitpicking and nagging says other wise, lol
on another note, the absolute dedication that takes! she looks amazing! congrats!I'd ask him why he didn't say that to her face? Because either one of us can kick his azz...
I don't think a guy would ever have the balls to insult somebody's wife where I live. Unless he's out of his mind on drugs.That was a great comeback, if I was your wife I would punch him in the face lol
How do you like her? And how do you feel about that statement?
I would tell him that I would tell her what he said and laugh when she beat the shit out of him.
“Let me get her for you. So you guys could arm wrestle and see if you’re right about that.”
I like your response. There’s nothing wrong with a strong woman.
I don't know but your wife is hot 😌
Yeah, and she punch like one to. Want her to beat your ass
Tell you that just because your husband had a sex change, that doesn't make you straight now.
