Don't remember when my last personal post was, but I'm just gonna do a transition update post, something to reflect back on further in transition.
For a few months now I've had my binder and dressed fully male, even introducing myself as Matty to new people (if I know they won't be a big part in my life or meet people I know).
A big step last Sunday was my first visit to a trans group, scary but well worth it.
Also going on a first date tomorrow, very nervous about it, not just because it's a first date with a guy I really like but a first date EVER.
More unexciting stuff that feels pretty big for me.
Got back pictures from today's photoshoot, quite happy with them considering I'm pre-t. I could look worse, not passing but who cares. :)

Wow, those are awesome pictures man! You're looking good :)
Congrats on going to the trans group! It's so great to see some people who know your struggles and can help you. The trans group I go to is great, all the guys are like a brotherhood in a way. It's heavily dominated by us guys but there's a few ladies who show up sometimes as well.
I hope your date goes well! That's exciting!

You remind me a lot of my nephew, he is a handsome young man and so are you!

Based on your photos, I would say that you pass favorably. Facial hair is not a necessity for passing as male; neither is an obvious male bulge.
It is much easier to pass as FTM than it is to pass as MTF.
