Do I Look, or Could I Pass as, Female? 6.0

[Inarasarah]

Amanda & Ashley,

You two are sweet.  I credit some of it with having friends who are in their 20's and 30's...they keep me young.

And some is good genetics, my mom is still doing great at 78 and other than a few minor issues is in great health.  Heck, she still has dark grey hair, not even white.  And then there is my Great Aunt who lived to 98.  We apparantly just live forever...haha.

Those pictures I hate, there are lots, is a problem of having most of photos taken when I am skating around a track looking to knock another skater down instead of primping and posing for the camera.  Oh well, every once in a while my photographers get a good one of this old Wolf.

Thanks for the positive comments, it makes me feel all tingly inside.  <3 <3

All these lovely faces here.  Thought I would share a photo I snapped yesterday.  Not to bad for almost 50

I would never in my life think you weren't a cis female. You look great.

SORAKAT: You're not passing yet due your Adam's apple, rough skin texture and sharp edges. The best thing to do is starting HRT because it would soften your skin and facial features. I would also recommend you to growing your hair a bit longer, electrolysis (facial hair removal) and a Adam's apple reducing in order to pass. On HRT you might have some potential to pass. The main thing which makes passing hardest is the Adam's apple.

GIAFARELL: The stubble, masculine head shape and haircut choice is the main things which makes passing harder. Your body is fine. You should try to style your hair in a way which makes your face looks lesser square, dominant and masculine. Long hair is recommended strongly. I know I sounds a bit harsh, but you doesn't suit short hair because it just makes thing more difficult for you. The short hair screams "Masculine". Perhaps a haircut like this would be something for you.



MICKI: My advice is to not use too much makeup or exaggerate it. That makes passing harder and some people do associating it with drag shows. If you want to pass, the makeup should be more discreet and eye shadow isn't recommended.

BREENYAN: Your (slightly) broad shoulders and body shape is a bit masculine, so I can see you're not cis. But facial wise you're fine.

Sarah1972: Are you pre or post-HRT? Your makeup is fine, but in some lightning the wig looks a bit stiff. But in darker lightning it doesn't look so wig like. You're not passing yet, but are at the right road makeup wise. It's mostly the facial shape which looks a bit masculine. From long distance you may pass, but when people are close I don't think you would pass.

Beautiful wigs :-)
I would love to try the first one ;-)
Where can I try that one on... in Norway (where I live). You are giving a lot of nice advice , I woiuld love to get your advice on how to wear make-up, wigs and dress
Have a nice Christmas and hope to hear from you
Hugs from Mona Elisabeth :-) in Oslo

Sorry can only ask you opinion based on my avatar; lately for some reason any pics i take with my phone automatically show up on my computer and other devices am reluctant to use any until I figure out why as I am still under the radar. The pic is after 3 years on estrogen and I am old broad at 68. I await your opinions and advice thank you all and BEST WISHES FOR A HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

You're absolutely stunning!!

D'oh, thanks everyone. Your words are so kind

Have to admit that HRT has been good as has FFS.  So Dr O gets some of the credit here.  Also it has been some 13 years since I transitioned.  Now I am just getting old(er)

I still get gendered male most of the time, but even at the danger of sounding arrogant, but I don't see it anymore.

[Dee Marshall]

I don't see it either, Zog. I don't know why they're misgendering you, but it isn't your looks.

Brow ridge and chin. 

A lot also depends on your voice.

My only explanation to this that they're either drunk or on drugs. You look lovely darling, seriously.

Hugs

I ran your picture through my Picture Pro software and It looks pretty good. Would you like to see what you would look like with an approximation of what you would look like with FFS and good lighting?

Dawn, what sorcery software is this you have?!

Portrait Pro 15.  It allows me to sculpt the features. I have one basic set up so everyone gets the same makeup treatment.  However I can make as many presets as I would like. I am also able to cover up most of the stubble. It mostly works. Sorry Dena. It basically can give you a glam shot type print ad picture or just a smoothing of the face so deep wrinkles go away. I can also give you a new hair color if you desire. A lot easier than Photoshop. It takes about two minutes when I don't have anything else to do. Some people enjoy it and some people aren't so impressed. I have read that half the battle of passing is confidence and If I can supply a modicum of that trait, it makes me happy. Just giving back to my Susan's family. It comes out better if you have no makeup on the original picture.

Eyebrows. Shape them, that's rule number one of being a girl. You can get away with anything else but not doing your brows. And second would be smile. makeup looks great.

[AshleyC]

That's pretty rad!

Hi Harley, thank you for the advice on eyebrows. I am not really outed so I need nature everyday look. Do you have any suggestion for androgynous style eyebrows shape?
