Title: Does this look like a dude in a wig or passing potential maybe?

So I got home at 4am drunk the other night and had the house to myself so I did this. Looking at these now I'm half cringing with embarrassment and half really happy. Found the wig in an old dress up box and stole some of my sisters lipstick. I know ive covered my eye area which is a big thing but is there potential for passing?
My plan is to basically take tiny baby steps and see how far I get. Hope for the best but expect the worst type thing.

I think you look wonderful, sultry. You have ton of potential. Keep taking those baby steps!

Here's the thing, everyone has passing potential IMHO. It depends on your determination, luck and monetary situation more than anything sometimes. I'd suggest counseling and finding allies first and foremost, because being happy is WAY more important than how good you look dolled up. Also, I'd never wear lipstick with a crewcut plain T-shirt, but that's more a question of style choices not blending in per-se.

Get rid of the beard shadow and you'll look really good. Not that you don't already.

Good stuff, oj. Happy for you and I don't see anything cringeworthy. Plus, like the others said, loads of potential!

You have nice full lips that many girls would kill for. :)
But maybe find a lighter shade of lipstick, hehe. A more pinkish hue would look wonderful i think.

Yeah, it looks good to me. With improvement points already mentioned above.
@Beard shadow, I barely notice it.

Orangejuice, you have a very good starting point...wig is good, if/when you get your own remember to get quality.

When getting a wig, measure circumference of your head. Then get a wig that is going to fit, otherwise you will not be comfy and there will be marks on your skin when you take it off.

You look a heck of a lot better than I do. You definitely are on the right track.

You look like Britney Spears in 2007 with brown hair.

Sent you a PM
Anyway, yeah, you look as I'd have expected... like you have a pretty solid chance. I told you, but really, I think you look great. I like the glasses. Oh, and I like that shade of lipstick on you too. Your skin is almost as light as mine and I generally use really red lipstick. I personally think it looks great with light skin...
