I don't know why... But I feel all buff and bad ass when I look at this picture... But I was wondering if I pass?

One of the few pictures I actually like of myself X3

Nice biceps, you do look good Dalex!

Yeah, definite pass - 12-18 year old guy for me.

Thanks for the input Evan! I'll admit, I do lean toward feminine fashion so I doubt I'll ever pass as a traditionally masculine male unless I wear my boyfriend's clothes My fashion idols are people like Andrej Pejic and Jeffree Starr (so VERY andro/femme guys). I do shape my eyebrows but even if I didn't I have really weak brows and often fill them out with brow liner or shadow (which I know doesn't help me much either lol) But anyway, I'm okay with looking andro for now... maybe once I start T and bulk up a little and pass a little better

Andrej Pejic is a trans woman.

Andrej Pejic is a trans woman.

Considering she only just came out as such, not everyone is aware of this.

Different shirt (more loose fit), pants further down:



It does make a difference though I also got some other pics that don't look as great but I didn't really get a good pose for them either so idk. Also Jesus, I am getting very fit on my arms at least. Do I like it? Hell yeah.

Very nice. I would say the neckline on the tshirt is sending you more andro. But it's a great shirt anyway!

I can't see any significant changes. This shirt looks small for you and the neckline won't help... IMO, of course.

I agree that the neckline is a bit andro but it's an otherwise masculine shirt, I really like it. And for whatever reason, I find that pants sitting a bit further down helps.  It's what I tend to do for my jeans.  You look a lot more straight up and down this way.  I don't really know why it is, but it works xD Anyways you look good man.  Your face is hard to see in this pic, but you do have a very masculine face and haircut so you pass really well imo I'd find it hard to see anyone calling you "ma'am".

You know, the other thing that's helping is that the shirt finishes higher up and doesn't go over your hips.  I find that really emphasizes any extra shape there is when it goes over.

Actually, I think the problem is that the shirt is too big lol. I had to wash it several times at 60 degrees C to get it to a level where it shrunk enough so I wouldn't drown in it. It actually goes further down my hips but I curled it up a little so it won't cover too much because that definitely gives the impression of having rounder hips than what's normal.

Yep, I agree. Having shirts going over your hips is a big no no. It really shapes your hips so they become more pronounced. Better to have them finish earlier. I think it relates to how we see lines somehow but not sure.

Also, yes, the shirt's really awesome. It would probably look less derpy/andro if it actually fit though. As it is now it barely fits.

Ephemeral, being an Asian guy myself, I'm so jealous how masculine your face looks.
Also, if you are bothered by your hips/ butt, you can try to wear compression shorts. Underworks carries "hip and butter trimmer" undershorts; one of my friends ordered and was pleased with the effect.

Yeah, I think I was honestly quite lucky with the basic shape of my face being quite masculine or at least androgynous from the get go. I did look at Underworks' binders earlier but meh. It's also a question of costs. It's cheaper to lose weight, so to speak. Or try to...

I'm pre-t, I think I pass for a youngish guy

[KamTheMan]

Definitely.

[Dalex]

Yeah, definite pass - 12-18 year old guy for me.

Thanks I'm just glad its a pass I try to take having my age guessed that much younger just as a compliment XD Perhaps I will age a bit look wise once I start T

Nice biceps, you do look good Dalex!

Thanks Shantel

[devention]

Andro leaning toward masculine is my reading, Kade. And young. You look like Jimmy (NintendoFanFTW on YouTube) to me.

3 weeks on hormones, nothing drastic....I don't feel like I pass, but am I close? lol
The second one is kinda low quality, sorry

I think you pass well already, just young looking.

Yeah, you look masculine enough. It's just a matter of time of T helping it along.

Not sure how I'll style my hair since it's wavy and short makes me look butch.

[Bombadil]
