How well do I pass right now?

I'd really like feedback on how well I pass as male in my photo, or at least androgynous (though I'm a transgender male so to look male is my goal). I'm still in the closet irl and I can't really get my hair much shorter than this without my mom getting suspicious, so there's not a whole lot I can change face wise but yeah it would be great to get advice on how masculine I look for now, or ways to make me look more male. Thanks a ton!

 

here's the link to the photo on my about me because I want to delete it later: https://www.transgenderpulse.com/forums/profile/30426-leomonade/?tab=field_core_pfield_15

If your hair were a bit shorter, I would say you look very much like a teenage boy.

I agree with MaryEllen Sort out your hair and I wouldnt think that you was anything other than a young man.

 

Good job

Unless you are a skateboarder or surfer, maybe shorten your hair a little. You still pass tho. Other than the looks, your confidence will be what “sells” what you want others to see and feel, and The attitude. In the pic, your expression set the tone, and that’s why I think you pass as is. ?

I think you look great and i would have trouble in knowing if you were male or female by just looking at this picture.  Your hair might give the biggest visual clue.  A baseball cap or pulling it back might help.

I agree with everyone else. Your hair is the biggest giveaway. If you don't want cut it, I'd suggest straighting it.

^^^ I was thinking this too.

You look just like 1/2 the guys my 13 yr old son hangs with. I’d have no idea you’re not a boy. Don’t think anyone would really.

I would have to say that you look like a 14 or 15 year old boy.  If you have not said anything, I would have thought that you were a boy just starting high school and trying to find your look.

Unlike many I don't see too much issue with the hair. It is somewhat untidy, more like a boy (I have issues the other way round as I have difficulty getting the female knack of hair control). I suppose it's more how it fits in with the hairstyles of similar males in you social circle and area. Feminine looking boy would be my opinion at a quick glance.

      I guess you do have a good point. It's just hard to try and not have the same meals over and over again.

      Hi   I’ll weigh in on being picky about food.  Yes, and I was brought up that way.  We didn’t have to eat everything our parents ate.  They had a number of things they ate that they figured we wouldn’t eat, an acquired taste things or one or the other didn’t like them too.   even as an adult there are many things I won’t eat.  In my defense, there are different things my wife won’t eat.   the weird thing is that after being in E, my tastes have changed.  Sweet, sour, salty or bland, if I eat or drink too much of any one thing and I have to counter act it.   Willow

      I have shared my doses and levels a lot and no one has said anything. Yeah I put alarms on my phone to make sure I don't miss a dose. I tend to forget a lot of stuff on what needs to be done. I have been also using the calendar on my phone a lot. I missed an appointment because I didn't put it in my calendar.

      Feeling better than I did yesterday

      It's official. My doctor wants me retested after the last results (too high). The test, that she scheduled, was likely too close to the dose. She did tell me to keep the increased dose instead of reverting to my old one, probably because my "too high" wasn't that high. I don't know what the forum's stance is on results, knowing full well the rules against sharing dosage, so I'll keep those under wraps until I know if it's OK to share those. Less to say, it was over the range she feels comfortable with by about 50%, but taken a day earlier than the midpoint value she was expecting. Grains of salt everywhere!   Of course I messed everything up too, missing my dose for the first time, yesterday. I had to re-reschedule the lab I setup yesterday to Monday from Saturday after taking my shot this morning to avoid the same issue with the testing. I woke up and thought, "Thursday, what do I have to do for work today? OH -crap-, IT'S THURSDAY! I missed my shot yesterday!"   Anyhoo. Question for the ladies: does anyone else get a mild zen-like high after their shots/doses? My brain feels lighter and I'm happier and I feel a lot more girlie this morning. 💃

      I'm into my fourth month of HRT and just titrated up in dosage after my last checkup. This is my life. 🤭   I have yet to grow out of my B cup bras, but I have noticed more fullness, having started with gynecomastia. I am seeing less gapping in bras with my right breast, which has always been smaller than my left. My areolae are slightly pronounced/projected now, that are larger but not vastly greater in circumference, and I have noticed little to no nipple changes beyond their painful sensitivity.

      -It's not a sprint it's an endurance.  -It won't happen overnight. -Seek a gender therapist. -You might lose a lot of support but hang in there. If they truly loved and cared about you they would stay. -Retail therapy helps and plus it builds your wardrobe and shoes. -Makeup is an artwork. It takes lots of practice to do it right and watch YouTube videos on how to put it on or someone who is knowledgeable. -You are going to have roller coaster emotions so don't rush anything.

      You have grown more breast tissue than most some only get one size and that is it. I went from 42C to 42DD but I'm also taking supplements. It's risky to take the supplements but to me it's worth the risk.
