Title: New Pics.....Shoulders too broad?
Post by: EmilyMI on June 03, 2014, 11:16:25 AM
I set a goal that for myself that I am going to be FINALLY going full-time here in the next 60 days. I am already working with my HR department (which they have been INCREDIBLY supportive of me through all of this) and just wanted to share some pics of me. These were taken recently before going out for long a walk with my puppies , so not much makeup or anything. I am self-confident though, and t I feel that I have broad shoulders. A friend that I am just being way too critical about myself, am I?

Aww thanks, that just made the rest of my day.  I am still working as a guy but some of the changes from being on HRT as long as I have are VERY prominent so I can't hide those changes anymore.  I also get Ma'am'd a lot when I am out in guy mode so yes it is becoming and more difficult to pass as a guy (woo hoo!) which just feels amazing, and something that I did not think I would ever experience.

I am sure you're looking for honest replies here so I'll be honest.

Girl, you have nice shoulders!  :)  Your friend is definitely right that you are being too critical of yourself. Stay beautiful.  :-*


Thanks, I do have a tendency to beat myself up a lot, and also worry myself to the brink of having some big anxiety attacks so hearing on numerous occasions that I am fairly passable as it is right now just helps with my over-all confidence issues and help to try to not be so hard on myself :-)
