WE CANNOT KNOW WHAT TRANSITION WILL DO FOR US!
Sorry, but you do not KNOW you will never pass as a boy. It may seem impossible right now, I know, but it is not. Start moving forward and keep believing.

When I told my best friend she said that I will never pass as a girl. Recently we had dinner together she said, "So what's left, just surgery? You pass, definitely all girl. I've known you for 20 years and I can't even remember you being a boy. You don't talk about transition anymore and I don't think about it but are you still planning on having the surgery?"

I don't know why people say those things when we first come out. It is incredibly hurtful. I have heard it all. You will make an ugly woman. No straight guy will ever go out with you. On and on, it hurt soooooo bad. Not anymore. I have had people say that they didn't remember me as a boy, did I sound like a boy? I use my old voice and every time it freaks them out. That's disturbing. Don't ever do that again. Eww, no I am sure that you didn't sound like that.

Please don't lose heart. You have barely begun.

Yeah your transition is incredible. Sorry if it seems I'm following and commenting your posts saying the same thing lol
Did you do injections, tablets?
My sister told me I won't pass but not directly I guess.

How does She know? HRT does some pretty amazing things. Don't let other peoples doubts and insecurities stop you from being the real you.

I am happy with my transition and feel very lucky.
I have only ever used patches and spiro until recently. Still do both but now I get the injection once a month that is supposed to make the body stop producing testosterone or something like that. I get blood work done tomorrow, will see then if the shot works. It hasn't so far and I have been getting them since August. My t level has been high and e level low for more than a year. Within female levels but only just, of course no where near male levels but still concerning for me. Don't know why I care, my boobs, hips and butt keep growing so everything must be okay.

My dear Mr. Tableux,

     The masculinizing power of testosterone is real!  I sometimes see genetic men whose facial features would make them flawless females -but- they appear male because of facial hair, male hairstyles, speech, gestures, mannerisms, etc.  At the age of 17, I was still blessed to not yet be showing signs of male pubescence (My gender dysphoria was very low & tolerable at that point) & I had no facial hair, a porcelain complexion, gorgeously thick hair, delicate features, etc.  I was at the peak of my natural beauty - Had I just worn my hair long in those days I would have very closely resembled Yvonne Craig . 

     One year later (POW!), testosterone made its entrance!  It seems I suddenly had facial hair, noticeable muscle development on my arms and shoulders, a masculinizing face, & I started appearing more and more male within a couple of years.  Those changes hurled me into profound dysphoria (Yikes!).

     I am an MTF & if I could somehow bottle up my natural T & genetic male physiology & transfer it to you, believe me mister, I most happily would.  Oh dear, I've prattled on long enough here.  In short, T & strength training exercises should bring about phenomenal masculinization in you.  Godspeed.
