This person is a girl, so a type 1 conditional is wrong. "If you are a boy, you will be handsome." << wrong For the present and future, a type 2 conditional is correct. "If you were a boy, you would be handsome." << correct For the past, a type 3 conditional is correct. "If you had been a boy baby, you would have been a handsome boy baby." << correct More information about conditionals: https://www.ef.com/ca/english-resources/english-grammar/conditional/

If you were a boy, I'm sure you would be handsome. You are certain (sure) about something, so it does not take the conditional. If you think you would only be sure if something happened, that would be different. 'If you did that, I would be sure of your love for me. '
