Do you pass or not?

[Donna]

I went shoe shopping the other day and had to cut thru the food court. Didn't notice anyone starring and no comments. Three young guys got up and walked out beside me and they never gave me a second glance. Made me happy

  Hi  John,

I'm Laurie, I see that you are new here. (btw you pass well I must say) So please let me say, Welcome To Susan's Place! Come on in and take a good look around.  Perhaps I can even get you to hop on over to the Introductions Thread and  create a post to tell us a little bit more about yourself so we can get to know you a little better and greet you properly.
  I'll add some links and information below that can help you get more out of our site. Please take time to become familiar with them especially the RED one as we are always getting questions that are answered there.  A couple things I would like to point out is the Terms of service item 1 and the link to posting ranks.

All I can say is if your not a guy I need new glasses. Well done

[izzymacattack]

For me I feel like it all depends on my presentation. If I dress femme enough I'll pass at least on a superficial level and more if my voice holds up. But if I just rock jeans and a t-shirt without makeup I'll probably be gendered masc.

I think when you decide for yourself that you wont let the term "passing" define you or your life, it becomes so much better. Be confident in yourself, being trans is nothing to be ashamed of. Of course we live in a  world where you need to confine to one gender to many people so passing is so important for some to escape physical and mental abuse.

When I first came out and lived as myself 100% of the time I was obsessed with passing and never getting clocked. But over time I grew to learn that I didn't give a damn about what people thought, I fought to damn hard to get where I am to let someones stare or comment hurt me. All that being said though I'm 21, 5'9 and have been on hormones since I was 16 and have mastered makeup and the "tricks of the trade".

I guess what I'm trying to say is be confident in yourself and live your life for you and no one but you, do what makes you feel good.

Totally agree, but this is too complicated a topic to really boil down so simply sometimes. There are factors including how you look/act and how that makes you feel, how other people react to that presentation, your own safety and wellbeing and even your livelihood sometimes. I think it's all a delicate balance, but as you say the ultimate goal is your own happiness.

[Harley Quinn]

Nope.  I thought I passed a couple of times, but I was mistaken.

Human beings are social animals and we all have a need for acceptance of who we are by society at large...and that does factor into feeling good about oneself... it has to!

How we see ourselves as a lot to do with what we see as acceptance...
I can tell you in the long run one's life will be hugely different if one passes or not... and that is even if one is somewhat out.

All that being said though I'm 21, 5'9 and have been on hormones since I was 16 and have mastered makeup and the "tricks of the trade".

So I guess you pass most if not all the time... those that from experience know they pass well tend to not worry or think about it much.... and that by far is IMO the best outcome for a TS.

Not all of us can get there though

Hmm passing.  Well I had a form fitting tank top and you could see my bra under it.. Long flowing hair that I keep brushing out of my eyes.  Cute jeans and a decent hourglass frame.

I say hi to girls and they smile at me.  Maybe they like me?  Hmm ... kidding   Usually if people smile at you and don't roll their eyes, whisper behind the back of their hand, cock an eyebrow.. don't read too much more into it, you passed.

IF you didn't pass then they're being incredibly nice & tolerable and wholly unheard of in the land of rednecks in Appalachia.  Don't sweat the big stuff, and just live life.

[Lady Skylar]

I'll most likely need FFS to totally pass as female. I'm 54 and I haven't even started hrt therapy yet, and I have many years of T damage lol. I was supposed to have started hrt last week but now I'm just waiting on my doctor to ship my hormone medications. The VA doctors are slow about everything though.
