Would You Rather Be Hot And Not Pass, Or Pass And Not Be Hot ? ;-)

[imaz]

Rather depends on who you want to be "hot" for, doesn't it ? ... 

Not for me it doesn't!

I want to look hot for myself and for my own self esteem, if someone fancies me I take it as a positive. Doesn't mean I'm necessarily interested in them.

[Ms.Behavin]

Ok I'm a greedy girl I want it all. But the reality is I pass a good bit but not all the time.  But I try to get better all the time. ;-)


BTW Laura Eve B, welcome back Hon!!!!

Ooooo, hot and androgynous sounds fun!

[Chaos_Dagger]

I'd rather pass as an average woman, then be considered hot but people know I was once a man...

I indicated "Don't care."  I am who I am and folks can make up their own mind when they see me. If they don't like what they see then it's their problem not mine.

We tend to spend a lot of time and effort on our appearance, and as we humans are very visual we tend to make decisions/assumptions the first time we see something/someone, so it's a natural thing that many would be concerned about how they look and present.  For myself it's all about acceptance.

I must admit though, it feels really good when you get cat calls (and yes I know some consider those offensive)  the bottom line is that my fiance thinks I'm hot and that's all that matters.

Oh my G-d
Sorry Imaz, As you know I  love you Hun. What do you mean by HOT.

I would like to be at a point when men drool, and women pant.
And I don't
I just move them with my stilletoe

I would just like to be at a point where I can look in the mirror and feel happy about how I look.

Hehe! Hot as in sexually attractive

Not hot as in stuck in a Jakarta traffic jam with the air conditioning not working!

[Jade H]

WoW! That's HOT!!! 

[Constance]

I'd rather be Hot and androgynous than anything else.

There are days when I'd prefer this. But for the most part, I'd rather pass than be hot.

[Suzy]

All I would like to do is pass and be a normal woman.  Hot?  I have no delusions.

Sorry, can't identify... I mean, I pass and I sizzle! 

Honestly, though, how can you be "hot" and not pass? Unless you're hanging out with ->-bleeped-<-s all the time?

I figure there's more to life than sex, too. I would like to be beautiful, but it might be a pain if I had to beat guys off with sticks all the time.

[Jenny Jackson]

This is an interesting one because imo pre FFS, if I took time applying my make up skilfully to help camouflage my more obvious male facial features, whilst enhancing my more feminine ones, I think I could, at times, make myself look quite 'pretty' (she says modestly). However, regardless I wouldn't pass if subjected to any serious scrutiny. Post FFS I certainly pass a whole lot better than I did, however, imo I look far plainer than before. I've come to the conclusion that all classic feminine facial proportions don't necessarily enhance and can even, in some instances, detract from the impact and attractiveness of ones appearance.

[Naturally Blonde]

Passing is the objective for most transsexuals, so I would go with Pass And Not Be Hot

[jillblum]

"Hot" is about the intellect and experience for me. What have you done or seen?  What cataclysm formed you? Where or who have you been? 

[Vexing]

My vanity exceeds sensibility; I'd much rather be hot and not pass.

However, I wouldn't have transitioned if I knew I wouldn't pass.
There's that vanity again

[Annwyn]

As long as we're... beautiful in our own opinion, I don't think anything else matters.

Wow.  What a load.

I get confidence in myself from what I see in the mirror.  The better I look, the better I function.

Call it vanity if you will.  I just know that I really hate ugly people, and what's even worse is I hate ugly people who pretend they're all that.  Sure they might be nice and fun to talk to, but god it makes my stomach turn over.

[Cindy]

You're going to have an interesting medical career. Keep the chuck bags close
