Unfortunately, I have no photos to show you guys, perhaps I'll add a link to my Youtube later because my latest video shows all of my changes, but anyway...the point of this;
Lately, I've been trying harder to pass as a male ( It sounds so easy at first, but when you start trying, you sometimes realize that one little god-damned thing is holding you back! ) So I got my hair cut into a more masculine style, I even told my hairlady that I'm trans and that I'm getting a sex-change and that I'm sick of looking like a girl. She completely understood and spent time with me looking through a book of man hair-cuts. I think it came out brilliantly. Not too long, not too short, and I definitely think that it masculinizes my features.
I also got glasses. I made sure that they were more masculine too, and again, I told the woman helping me that I wanted 'manly frames,' Yes...they're hipster frames xD Big black plastic rectangle frames, but I like them and I think they do wonders.
I bought new shirts, lots of long-sleeved, collared, button-up, cotton shirts, and I think they are absolutely genius, if I do say so myself.
I also stopped shaving my face xD I know that probably does more harm than good, but when I feel dysphoric about myself, I touch my weak facial hair and feel fifty times better.
What did all of this amount to?
My intro to criminal justice teacher called me 'sir' last night!!!
OMG, I was so happy. He only glanced at me while he said it, I think if he stared at me, he wouldn't have, but I don't care. Because it shows that at a quick glance, he read me as a guy!
I smiled so big my face ended up hurting, and it was interesting, because even after he looked at me completely, he didn't look shocked or confused, or like he said the wrong thing, not even after I spoke.
->-bleeped-<- YES!!!
...That is all :3
It feels really validating doesn't it. I'm feel awesome lately cause I'm in college stealth for the first time ever. Only my adviser, my bff, and a coworker who goes to school here know. I'm seen as male at work but there are still slip ups, here there are none. It's great to be able to have started back to school at male and have no one know anything else.
You should definitely post your youtube link :)
Sounds great, congratulations!
Waiting for your Youtube.
That's brilliant mate, glad you're feeling so happy! :)
Really sound great that you guys are able to go to college completely as guys. Always having everyone seeing and thinking of you as one of the guys. I started as a girl, even thou most of the new students see me as a guy those I started with know my history. i am always wondering whose knows.
