Gabriella Reece is 6'3; just lose weight, and you may be ok (I'm saying may, because I don't know what you look like).

I'm 6'3" and have little trouble passing. I am almost 40lbs lighter however I have always had a light set frame. We have even taller women on this forum who also pass. Ability to present as a woman isn't just down to height, yes it makes you stand out in the crowd so there's nothing you can do about that so you need to find ways to roll with it. I don't wear heels, I don't dress like I'm going to a nightclub when just going out to shop, I don't overdo the jewellery or makeup or hair (all things that may make people spend extra time checking me out) - I try to blend in while owning the fact that I am 6'3". Apparently it can be done.

Yes. That's about my size, and I seem to pass effortlessly now.

I am 6'1, 3 months ago was 290 Lb, but have been losing a lot of weight. I am currently 227 Lb (and still falling) and I don't know if it's my imagination or just more confidence, but I don't seem to get people staring at me any more out in public, so I think that your current height and weight shouldn't be a problem...

I am in the same category 6f2 and probably 200lb now. I think I can get down to 160-170. I am sure confidence goes a long long way in passing. Still wondering what pass means? That everyone thinks you are a woman or most people see that and some see through it but you have done enough that it doesn't upset the general balance of gender.

I am 5' 12" and this morning I weighed 224 pounds. That puts my BMI at about 30. I would like to under 200 pounds.
Caitlin Jenner is my same age and height. She weighs 190 according to various internet sources.
I would like to be the same as Caitlin.

You look great! :)
I'm 5'10", tall enough to have tall problems, and my weight has gone up and down in the past decade, and as I have found mass right under the armpit effects the elbow position, giving a more feminine drape to my arms.
Height & shoulders go along frequently, I'm not a total exercise nut, but hoping to improve. I try to focus on what adds and subtracts from my shoulders & arms. That's what always gets me in the mirror.
Posture is important for all taller people, not just for appearance, ... our backs are our nemisis.

I've never been good at visualizing a person from height and weight but I'd say don't worry about your height. I've met many women over 6 ft and thought little of it. Didn't seem out of the ordinary to me at all. I know people who find tall women especially attractive too.

Have you seen other tall women out there??? They are not all 5'4'' or so. I've seen my fair share of tall women, and sure, they got my attention as its not an everyday thing, i never would have think they were a guy. Weight i believe is hard to guage, depends on ones body. I'm always heavier than I look, but im healthy and at a good weight, even though my weight is up above what is "normal" for my height.

Sweetie, you can pass despite being tall. Women can come in many different sizes just like men! A six foot woman can exist and a 4 foot man can exist.
We are all different and that is what sets us apart as people! You can totally pass even with your height! So don't be doubtful or ashamed of it girl!

And there is passing in different situations. Visually walking down the street or carrying a conversation (way more difficult)
