The Official 'Do I pass?' topic (Ver 5.0 - in 3-D)

Hello everyone, please be kind, I've been having an awful couple of days, although I seem to pass 100% and have been doing so for several months. What do you guys think? Sorry for the semi nekkid pics (sfw), post-shower seems to be my optimal photo taking time.

I just see a guy, TBH you look like a young cis-male.

I'm new here. My name is Kai, and I'm 17... I use he/him pronouns. I'm a Chinese trans dude and I'm pre-T, so I know I don't pass all that well. Still, on a scale on 1 to 10, 10 being the pinnacle of passing, where am I?

I think you look androgynous. Your ability to pass will depend on things like body language and clothes more than just the appearance of your face. I think you pass better in the second picture (6-7 out of 10) because of your expression and clothes. The first picture,  you look like you are on the feminine side of androgynous.

You are really handsome and pass very well.

[Menoimagination]

Wolfnight, your hair looks like a bunch of other boys I know ahahp
kai you do sort of pass, yes you look young but you still look like some boys I know.
Every one that I've seen passes somewhat or is on there way to passing

So I was wondering if I still pass with this short hair because over summer I got fed up of overheating and so I cropped it real close?



Like is it ok??? I was ok with it over summer because no one really saw me but now school and life and I'm worried I might look feminine?

You look very male to me - face, hair, glasses, etc. Not feminine at all.

I'm reluctant to post a picture, but... eh, why not.
I've been on HRT for a little over 11 months.

And you also look very male to me, face and build. Definite pass.

hi!! i am chinese also!!
i think you pass as a younger guy

[CodexUmbrae]

Hi, so my name is Caleb Nathaniel. I'm pre-T and pre-everything, haven't even outered to no one I personally know. Well, except for one guy in a contest. xD I don't even have a binder. I want your opinion as I am pretty confused...

I look at the mirror and I don't think I pass. One stupid source of dysphoria is the face detection in my phone camera. It detects gender and age... Sometimes it says I'm a guy, going from 12 to 24 years (it's pretty crazy xD), and those times I get pretty happy and it is ok. But sometimes it says I'm a woman and I get so dysphoric. Pretty stupid, I know, but pfffs. It got to tell me I was a man when I had my hair a little longer (about my jaw), and now that my hair is shorter... Pfffs.

But, by the other hand, I'm usually called 'sir' in the streets. Recently I went to a photograph contest and everyone thought I was a boy. A "cute and adorable baby-boy" but a boy. xDD I'm 17, everyone told me I look like 12. xD But anyway. I don't even have a binder and my voice isn't as thick as I would like. Guess I look androgynous, but my way of walking, sitting and so tips the scales to more boyish.

I want your opinion, and suggestions about my hair. I actually like it, but I'm not sure if it helps me or not. And anyway, it'll grow soon and I change my cut often. Just to point: I have a rather big forehead and I kind of hate it. So I'm not sure if I'm ready to cut my hair enough to leave it uncovered. And about my glasses... Yeah, I'll change them when I can. I know I have to use them (and they help me a lot to see), but I hate the feeling of them in my nose. xD




Got happy in there. (? Although I don't like how I look. xD


Happy with this one. (?


I'm so yooouuuung. (?






Last two, today. (? Felt like taking some, I usually don't like photos. xD Well, being infront of the camera.




These other two, in the contest. I'm not so photogenic. xD

Usually, wouldn't be posting so much photos, but I want opinions from people that doesn't know me, and can't hear my voice or see how I walk and sit and so.

Also... Could you tell me if the name fits me? I know it's a weird question (?), but I had a hard time finding the right name for me... As I actually have two names (and I actually like them, kind of I'll miss them, but if I ever get to adopt or something, and I have a daughter, maybe name her with one of them... Tiare Chantal, the first is pretty weird, uh, but I like it and almost everyone call me by it, just it's... Too feminine)... Well, as I was saying, as I have two names, I felt like I need two names. So... Caleb Nathaniel. Does it sounds ok? I also liked William... Nathaniel can be Nath, Nate and Nathan (for me at least). William can be Liam and Will, and I pretty like all of them. xD And Caleb is a special one for me, as one of my favorite characters (I love writting) is named like that. I'm petite just like him (?)... Good thing I don't like women. Sure it'd be hard to find one smaller than me, I'm not even 5'' tall. xD I mean, I wouldn't need a girl smaller than me, just like... Joking. xD

Finally. I apologize for my english, not a native speaker. And sorry for the big big post. (?

I think you pass, at least I would call you 'sir' if I saw you on the street. Like someone said before, your body language will help (or not).
Btw, you look cute in the second one. c:

CodexUmbrae- I think you look sort of androgynous. I don't think you need to cut a lot of your hair up. IMO I think quiffs look best to make someone look more masculine; so you could get something like this https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=long+hair+quiff+male&client=ms-android-samsung&source=lnms&biw=360&bih=615&prmd=ivsn&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwizoMq8ma_PAhVBAsAKHYouAeUQ_AUIBygB#imgrc=jN_9M4o3Ux6pxM%3A. I think it's more important to like how you look rather than follow certain rules on how an ftm 'should' look in order to 'pass'. Plus it seems a shame to cut your hair bcos it takes so long for it to grow back. I'm currently growing my hair out from an undercut and it's gonna take me a year to get it to chin length; so I wish I had your hair

Squarer glasses would also help.

As for your name Nathaniel fits and suits you. Not sure about Caleb because it's suchan unusual name but Caleb Nathaniel has a nice ring to it .

Also GC2B make the best brand of binders if you're looking to buy one.

Hope this helped.

CodexUmbrae- You do look very very androgynous, so much so that it can be very easy to tip the scale to the guy or girl range so its important that youre conscious of all your other tells like dress, walk, voice. Unfortunately, being seventeen and in school and/or around the same crowd of people your age might be a "tell" in you not being a bio male, I could easily see you as either.

I wouldnt put too much stock in those gender detection apps, theyre fun to use and genuinely help if youre able to get detected right because theyre fairly accurate, but not entirely. Ive seen cis people get misaged or misgendered before so its really a non issue.

I also wouldnt worry if you did like girls haha, as much as being a gay male is a good thing for small guys like us (Petite master race), it ultimately depends on who you like and who likes you, we're both super gay (but not really) but I ended up with a girlfriend who's slightly taller than me, hahaha!

I suggest that if you dont like glasses you try out contacts, it takes a little extra practice but for me its not hard to use and I enjoy them,

As for names, its really hard for you to have others pick, since you opened up with Caleb I'd feel bad for dissuading your personal decision, I do have a friend named Caleb its a cool name. I do tend to like names with nicknames though so if it were me I would go with William because I like the sound of that.

Good luck with life, once you get on T things will go much better since you already pass fairly well
