Hello again wonderful humans!
A few things have happened in the past week including the fact that my friend is letting me borrow a binder! I'm so damn happy that whenever I see myself I almost cry for all the right reasons for once ;D
I don't have much else to say but I do have one question, is facial dysphoria a thing? The other day I was told that my face was too feminine and that I would never pass as a guy and now ever since then I've been trying my best to not show my face very much (which is pretty difficult). I really hate my cheeks as according to him it gives it away the most, this sounds weird but has anyone got any tips on how to avoid this feeling? Am I the only one that has this feeling?
Anyways I hope you all have a beautiful day!

I had a doctor who worked with transsexuals tell me I looked to masculine to be a woman. I may not be sexy but I'm not questioned in public. I have seen FTM's before and after T and have found it shocking how fast their face transforms from a feminine face to a handsome guy. What is important is for you to become what you feel inside and be wary of people who tell you it's impossible because they may not really know.
I think it's quite common, although now that you brought it up it's never mentioned unlike chest and bottom dysphoria. I definitely have it and causes me the most discomfort as it's not something I can change until I'm on T. I'm super aware as to not to make eye contact with people, especially if they gender me correctly, for fear they'll 'correct' themselves. I found that when I lose weight my face looks a lot more angular and can almost see some cheekbones, so I obsess about my weight quite a bit. Also I have an undercut which makes my face appear square. Hope I helped.
