Got my hair cut again (finally), just wondering what you guys would say :) Not out yet to anyone but two best friends, so I still look very feminine.



Cant see much from the side hon, but if i was looking through pictures in an album and saw these, or searching the web (other than Susans or the likes) I never would not think you were female.

I'm new here.. thought I'd post to see if when I officially come out.. if I can pass as a guy. :) My mom finally let me cut my hair like a boy this past summer and I love it. My hairs a little messy in these pics sorry haha






 
@Freddie love the haircut and the clothes.. I think you pass. Your face is a little feminine yeah but your hair and clothes make you look like a guy imo

I don't know much about FTM transformations, but when I see your face, it seems to have a squareness about it that says male, it isn't screaming but T will def amplify that based on what I have seen in this thread in the past.

These B&W say Male to me hands down. I am not sure what your relationship with your Father is like so I cant tell you what is best for you, you must make that call....but I dont think going to your Father, with the mentality and the message I must do this and there is not a D*mn thing you can do about is a good idea. Sure, deep down, maybe that is what you think you need to do, but I hope you think about talking to him openly, explain that this is how you feel, and that you would like to see a therapist. The therapist will help a lot, and has helped me dearly. Please don't take this as me telling you what to do, just an idea. :) On a final note, you pass in these pictures before T, but keep in mind, there is more to passing than just looks.

I'm still pre everything, and I don't always feel confident about my passing but I took some pics before and after school on a day that I felt pretty confident. I'm open to constructive criticism if anyone has it. xD

I definitely think you pass, but as quite a young boy. Especially in the second pictures you look around 12/13.

I think you pass in the first two. My one hold back really is your hair could use a little something. Maybe just a little trim, your face looks like it'd work best with long hair though. So just a little off the bottom.
In the second two you look like a girl. I don't think you pass in a hat, that and it and your shirt being pink (or at least that's how it looks on my computer) don't really help.

Hi, friends!  I've been lurking here for well over two years, but finally am going to start T next month, so I'd thought I'd post a before photo here.  I just got a haircut today, so tell me buddies... DO I PASS? (I'll try add more photos later possibly, this is the only one available now :P)

I think you totally pass! You look young, but A) there's nothing wrong with that and B) T will help
Congrats on starting T, and I really dig your haircut!

Thanks for the opinions ^^ as far as everything looking pink, blame the camera on the phone and tablet I was using lol, I never have been good with indoor lighting. I've been trying to get a new phone case since I got the thing but soon I won't have the phone anymore so I won't worry. :P (the shirt and hat were actually orange rofl)

As far as the hat, it makes sense. I noticed it does tend to make my face look more effeminate. I'm gonna stop wearing hats so much for now. :p looks kinda like I need to revise my style of clothing, haha.

I've been really uncomfortable with myself lately even though people keep saying I do pass and I tend to pass (if I keep my mouth shut :p)to strangers. So I thought I'd put some pictures up here. Do you guys have any tips to pass better? Am I paranoid? And what age do I pass as if I pass?

I think you pass too, Nathan. I'm inclined to say I'd read you as about 17 or 18.
