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

For sure, you pass in #3.  It's the smile.  A smile is an extremely feminine accessory.

@ AnamethatstartswithE:   I agree with KathyLauren about the smile is what does the trick... #3 for sure.  A smile is disarming to anyone that looks at you and once they see a great smile they don't neccessary look closely at anything else...   you definitely pass.
Best wishes to you in your transition journey.

Interesting, I felt that that was the worst one, just due to my weird facial expression. My forehead is really starting to bother me, I look like I'm part Klingon.

@ AnamethatstartswithE:  Your forehead is not an issue at all.... not a boney head like a Klingon... at this point I wish that I could recall something I could say in the Klingon language....  btw, I am a fanatic of all things StarTrek so I know about Klingon foreheads!!!  LOL
****..,plus no one will get past your smile in picture #3.

Certainly not Klingon - yell in Klingonese
However, if I had as much hair as you, I'd go for bangs.  To me, bangs tend to be more feminine.
Awesome all in all

Despite getting rid of my friend Appy, your new avatar is very lovely.

I might try bangs once I'm ready to go full time. I do have a bit of a widows peak, so enough hair needs to go backwards to cover that.

I'm having fun with the bangs. Just getting used to
Hair on my forehead and in my eyes when it's windy.
Otherwise I love the look

@ Cassi:  Oh yeah, it is a cold, snowy and windy day so I dress accordingly.
Just a note to you:  Appy and I did a mind-meld so she and I are ONE.

I'm working on it.  Prior to setting Cassi FREE, I had some hair on the right side of my head that tends to "comb over" lol.

I'm sooooooooooooooo delighted that you're mind-melded and not pod'd.

So now I'm "Happy Bout Appy"

I know I'm slowly taking over this thread, but I'm a millenial so I need constant reassurance. Anyway I've been working on my makeup skills, and at 7 and a half months HRT, I'm trying to figure out when I might become ready to go full time, let me know what you think.



Before anyone says anything, yes I need to smile more, but I can't smile 24/7. Also forgive the partially wet hair.

I think you're very pretty and that you pass way better than I do. To be fair, if you can swing it, get laser for your face. Your facial hair is the only big thing that stands out, to me. Maybe even an eyebrow shaping. But, other than that, you're doing wonderfully on makeup and I think you pass quite well. I have a difficult time figuring it out on my own as well. If you don't want to do laser or anything, they have this orange concealer that cancels out facial hair color and makes it look like you don't have any. I'm gonna get me some of that to try it out.

[AnamethatstartswithE]

Thank you for your kind words. I have been getting laser. I try to not do too much makeup, here is the most helpful guide I've found. Most of the makeup youtube videos are super complicated, whereas this is the sort of thing most women would do on a day to day basis.



My biggest issue which I don't think I can express well with pictures is my size. I'm 6'3" and about 218 lbs. Most guys are smaller than me. While I am fairly skinny, I do have very broad shoulders (which makes finding tops difficult).

I've only had one treatment and I can't even tell, yet. I'm going to my second this Saturday. I try not to use too much makeup either. I used more when I went to Pride this past weekend and I knew that I shouldn't have lol. Oh well. Gotta experiment, right? I want to try using the concealer I mentioned until my facial hair is barely noticeable. I like that tutorial you posted, though.

Trust me, I am in the same boat. I'm 6'2" and my shoulders are slightly broader than my hips, which still makes me look too masculine, imo. So, I know the pain. I also lift weights, which doesn't help to lessen the masculine-looking quality of my overall profile, but I have to stay within military standards, so I do what I can to avoid bulking up too much. When I begin HRT, I'm sure things will even out and get better.

Well I am starting to see some more feminine features than I did before I am going to be really trying to lose weight tomorrow no more take out or pop or junk food I want to lose 35 pounds
