Am I too muscular as a girl?

When I am at school or in public I receive stares; it is because of my muscles. Most of the time I feel ashamed because the other girls have feminine bodies and I have a muscular one. The majority of it is natural and the rest is from track because I work out. Is this bad?

You look perfectly fine. Fit and in shape. That's the way you want to be. It's healthy.

just ignore them. as women,if we're too heavy,we get stares. too thin,stares. too muscular,stares. you can't win with judgemental people,no point in worrying about their narrow opinion.

You probably are a sportswoman and for that you must have some muscles.

Hey! Don't worry about your physical appearance, if you're muscular then it is beautiful, if you're thin then it is beautiful also. God don't made an "ugly" person just embrace your appearance! :)

You are beautiful and you have a fabulous body! I'd bet that they are staring because your body is so perfectly toned. Most of us can only dream of being as well-sculpted as you are! Hold your head high and be proud. There is NOTHING wrong with you.

Bad in the same way that I'm 'just fine with the fact that I don't have a job or a car or an "Internet-cellphone" (whatever they call those "smart-pads" or "iPhones" or whatever).' It's bad that things have gone this way for me, but "So it goes & so it goes." But it took work. For me, it was 'continuing to go to school for far too long'---a strategy that would've worked if my parents had had their lives 'figured-out' by the time I should've quit school & started doing ... something like tech-school ... Anyway (that was what we ramblers call "a tangent" ) Your musculature probably took work too. And you developed those muscles to serve the purpose you were given. I think of the Bible-story of Simon Peter walking to Jesus. Simon was headed to the next town, and Jesus caught up with him & kinda yelled ahead, "Hey! Come back here!" Simon saw Him, heard Him & started to head back to Him. He was almost to Him when he looked down and (forgetting his purpose for heading back to Jesus) realized, 'Hey! This is water! I'm not supposed to be able to stand here; my body's supposed to be drenched here!' and he started to fall. But Jesus caught him and they walked back to the boat (or onward to dry land ... I forget). A lot of 'Christians' (the kind I call "Bible-thumpers"---who think (like comedian Sarah Silverman says Christians believe) 'Jesus is Magic') that the story teaches that "Jesus gives His disciples the ability to do miracles (for 'signs & wonders')." And He does ... the same way Luke Skywalker gives Finn (FN-2187) the power to use The Force. I think the true lesson is to focus on 'the goal' rather than -on 'things you can't change.' If thoughts of 'how you're not feminine enough' (or whatever) enter your mind; tell yourself "it's not time for that/those/him/them yet," and focus on what you are enough-of and/or how you'll become more-of-that soon And call the other stuff 'a blessing' if/when it develops.
Finn was a human male who fought for the Resistance during their war against the First Order, which he previously served in as a stormtrooper prior to defecting. He was considered one of the best stormtroopers of the FN Corps, where he was designated FN-21

I like it when women are in good shape. It means we can do stuff like hiking and cycling together. To me you look attractive and friendly. I get weird stares sometimes when I say hi to people on the streets, but that's because I live and work in the "snobby" Bay Area.

Your muscles are nothing compared to those of my nieces. They do martial arts, dancing etc. .

If that is a picture of you I would say you look healthy. I can't find a single reason to be ashamed of that.
