Do I "pass"?

[T2Logan]

Please be honest. I know I look young. I'm 22. Even as female with long hair and stuff everyone took me as 12 when I was 18. I am open to suggestions as to what could make me more masculine and or older looking. I know facial hair would do that, but other things?

[Alyx.]

For sure in some pics, borderline in others.

You're kinda cute, but I heard guys don't like that told to them. :x

[TamTam]

Don't stand with your head and hips tilted like they are in the second photo.  Guys stand straight up and down, especially when in a suit. All the tilting is very feminine body language.

[Dana Lane]

The last photos where you are wearing your hat are convincing to me.  Your eyebrows look a bit manicured for a young guy though. That is just my opinion.  And all boys like to be called cute!

[Suzy]

Oh yes you do.  And you are a real cutie!   I think you like being called that.  You pass better than some genetic guys I know.  I do agree with the hips thing though.  The "man"nerisms will come in time.  Just practice.

Heartwood - Thanks. I've been told I'm cute. I don't mind. I don't eat it up and I'll deny that I am cute, but it doesn't bother me if it's said.

TamTam - Didn't realize I was standing that way. I usually sit/stand masculine. I remember that day though. It was very stressful so I was kind of like "yea yea, just take the picture!" and didn't care how I looked. I didn't realize tilting was feminine though. Thank you for that tip!

Bridgette - Yea the eyebrow thing. They are naturally bushy and "manly" but all the hype from my mom and sister to "do something about them" over the years wore me down so I did it. Not nearly as much as they want though! My mom STILL complains about them!

Kristi - Thank you. I actually HATE being called "cute" when people think I'm a girl or consider me female. "Cute" as a guy is good to me. I don't see it, but I won't get mad at anyone that thinks I am or says I'm cute!

WoW! if only I were younger.... er... ummm I mean... You pass. Very very well.

[Jamie-o]

I'd say yes.  You look about 13 (as most of us do pre-T  ), but, yes, you pass.

[Kara]

Yeah, you look like you're 15, but there's not much doubt here. 

[Mister]

You pass in all but one of the photos you've posted.  Whether or not you pass IRL will depend on your voice, your mannerisms, your body and your clothing.  No one can tell you if you pass IRL by looking at a few stragetically posted photos taken from flattering angles.

^ awh come on, I'm sure he knows that...at least when I made my "do-I-pass" thread I meant...appearance-wise...

I'd say YES. except before I saw your age I was thinking you were in your mid-teens or something :x

the only thing is, I think women+female bodied people have like...very rosy coloured lips. APPEARANCE-WISE (imo) that's really the only thing that would give you away...OH, and of course the tilting your hips thing u_u

1st pic: Seeing it from up to down. Yes on the male but in the middle of your face it gives me a "uh?" Seeing it from down to up, female for sure.

2nd pic: I felt something was odd, then others commented on the pose... guess that was it. I have been wondering how much it affects the rest of the look.

3rd and 4th pic: Yes, young male at around 16.

[Khrist]

I think so. In the first one and last two. For some reason the suit looks off. I think it's because it's so form fitting and I can see your girlish hips. I think the second to last pic is the best, the ghetto-ish look works for you

[Janet_Girl]

You look very young in all of them.  Which is the biggest drawback that I see. 2nd pic the stance is wrong.  More straight up and down, would be more masculine.

Otherwise, yes for a very young man.

What everyone else said. I LOVE the colour combo with that suit, will have to remember that. Longer hair will help, the shorter hair just makes you resemble Ellen a bit, which does not help you at all.

[emoboi]

I cant see the pics

oh im stupid
well I think you pass

[tekla]

In the suit yes, in the thuglett wear, no.

[GnomeKid]

pretty much agree with what everyone else said, but I think you pass much better in the last 2 pictures... its not necessarily the hat... well it could be.... I think its the facial expression too

[Mister]

something else i saw that i haven't seen anyone else mention..
square off your sideburns.  the sideburns of women are cut to a point (think of a pixie cut) and men's are squared off.

[Jay]

Yup!
