Well, this is me right now, I am seriously considering Hrt, opinions, would I be able to pass with treatment or maybe makeup? I don't have a problem with mannerisms and voice :)  https://imgur.com/a/vVVzR

Third photo is an old one, but would like to look like the app made me :D Thanks in advance! ^_^

I don't see any reason why you wouldn't be able to pass. It's hard to say exactly what hrt effects will be for you, but with softening of the chin/jaw line (the general rounding effect) and other subtle changes, plus basic stuff 99% of people have to do like eyebrows, you would be in extremely good shape. Bottom line, you have an amazing starting point.

Wow, thank you very much,  this helps me a lot. I believe maybe if I gain some weight with treatment or maybe like that, it will help round up a bit my face.

The nice thing is you look pretty young already, so HRT effects will be more pronounced.. given time and testosterone influences though the masculinization effects will continue to worsen things.

Most people I find if you don't act like a cat with a long tail in a room full of rocking chairs, (don't act like you don't belong, super nervous, etc..) generally you do fine.   Act like you belong, improve your voice, and 'monkey see monkey do' act like females your age, copy their mannerisms, etc.

I have noticed that also, if I feel like I look too much like a man then I get stressed and lose my stature and my voice gets deeper. It's weird actually what effects nervousness has on some people.
I need to come out of the closet quickly because as you said I might become more masculine I need to start transitioning, it's about time.

 Brows, nose (ffs), longer hair or wig (to hide earls), chin should be rounded with hrt

Brows are on the list as well as hair, I will grow it out, as for my nose, I don't think I will have a surgery but I will leave it on my list, Hrt, well depends on my genes, I hope it works well. Thanks for your help. 😄

I think you have a really good chance of passing with just HRT - you have beautiful eyes, great lips. Obviously, it's hard to tell what will happen with hrt but if it just serves to soften some of the harder "male" edges of your frame you will be fine.

Roll, I agree and by the way, love your new avatar!!

And smile. Nothing improves your image better (and shows nice soft kissable lips) than a good smile.

Thank you all very much for the support and the advice! I hope you succeed in everything you want to succeed! As for my progress, I might surprise you with a photo one day haha :P . Once again, thanks, it means a lot to me.

I think you would definitely pass with hrt. Actually, with a wig, makeup and arching your eyebrows you could pretty much pass now. You kind of remind me of wynona Ryder when she was young. You have pretty lips that would look awesome with lipliner and color. You have pretty eyes which eyemakeup will enhance. You have nice cheekbones that shading and blush will enhance. Your skin looks good and it doesn't look like you have really heavy facial hair. With hrt, hair removal and eyebrow arching I think you would not only be passable but very pretty.

I will start slowly making changes, I've already have slimmer eyebrows and I might start putting a little bit of makeup for starters, as for facial hair, well I will probably have laser in the future. Though, I wouldn't like to put a wig on, I will leave my hair as is, and maybe color it white or maybe blue or mauve, I will let them grow anyways.

Oh, you are going to easily pass, in my opinion. You have beautiful features!

I think you'll find that you look even prettier than the face app pic after hrt. Of course it takes at least over a year but if it's something you want you should be fine.

Heck maybe even with some makeup you'll look great. Give it a try.. have fun with it!

I've put some lipstick on yesterday night when I was alone, I felt awesome. Well I am preparing my Aunt's psychology for my coming out 🤣 she is taking it rather well, I don't think she will judge me, more like support me, though she will probably be too surprised. I believe that I am almost ready to transition, I will finally come out, I've already came out to my friends, next is my Aunt and then my sisters and mother. Though I am afraid a bit of my mother's reaction as well as my other sister.

I totally think you can pass with make up and HRT will help you have a feminine appearance now Hrt will help high light the features and make so subtle other ones learning make up and hair styles helps too and yes if you have mannerisms down than you should have know problem

Rafaelle

I hope so, well I am really impatient waiting for my hair to grow, it's so annoying. Also make up does wonders sometimes, so I might as well worship it 🤣
