I agree. You'd definite pass as a young teenage boy (13-16 age).

No worries, man. It is a common effect I've noticed for transguys: we look younger than we are. I'm 39 and I've been told I look no older than 30, which is a first. Previously, I looked older than I was. I ain't complaining.. ;) The beard and such will come and it'll help.

One of the things is the clothing. That comes more across as a younger boy than a young man (not sure why but that is a societal created thing I think)

Well ur never catch me in tight jeans and pink polo shairts "HIP HOP ALL THE WAY LOL.." sorry thats my thing.

Totally understandable and one doesn't need to wear tight jeans and pink top (I wouldn't). It is about what's comfortable and what is you. But sometimes we have to be aware our choices result in others having a preconceived notion of who we really are, not what we are (that whole "don't judge a book by it's cover" is BS)

I think it's the second-to-last one that makes you look youngest.. maybe it's the profile, I dunno.  But in the other ones, I wouldn't say you look as young as 13.. 13 year olds don't have that attitude and swagger you have.. ;) You do look young though.. maybe 15-18.  Third one from the top, you look more 18-21.  But no matter what, you definitely look like a guy, no worries there. :)

I'd say 15, but you ABSOLUTELY pass. Don't worry about the looking young thing... we all have to deal with that as ftms. I've been on T 8 months, and I went from being seen as a 17 y/o guy/masculine girl to a 19 y/o guy (I'm 26). It may feel like a curse right now, but I'm thinking it'll be nice once I'm 40 and look... huh... 32?

The super huge pants do you a disservice in a couple ways-

1.) You look 3 feet tall.

2.) Your hips stand out.
Title: Re: Some photos
Post by: perfectisolation on February 09, 2009, 01:25:33 AM
Agreed you look like a young guy
I don't know how baggy pants would make your hips look any bigger though, but they do make you seem shorter. but, that's the style. I have baggy pants too.

Well i have big hips witch i hate and cant seem to gte rid of.. And im only 5,3 so im short anyways, hight dont bother me as im taller then danny diveto.. and my older brother.

One thing i wouldnt like to chang is my legs as there like mens anyways :D. cuz i walk alot and work out it helps but cant seem to get rid of my hips... witch id love to get rid of. But i seem to look better in jeans ...

Yeah, man you definitely pass.

As far as the pants making you look short? It does that for a lot of guys anyway.

My hubby looked over my shoulder when I was viewing your pics.  He had no idea.  He thought you looked like a 15 year old "dilweed."  You're really working the 'tude!
Title: Re: Some photos
Post by: Hazard "AJ" on February 10, 2009, 03:07:16 PM
Ok call my stuped "dilweed"???????
Title: Re: Some photos
Post by: tekla on February 10, 2009, 03:23:11 PM
Your right, I think it was wrong to call you a 'dillweed' which is very American I think.  Chav is the Brit Speak for that look ain't it.  Or what my friend calls "Fashion statements of the unemployed and unemployable."

And that might be swell and cool in your hood, in my towns, that powder blue will only get your butt kicked big time.

Yeah, you definitely pass! But I agree, somewhere between 13-16 years old. That is a cool hat!
Title: Re: Some photos
Post by: shanetastic on February 10, 2009, 08:02:58 PM
I'd say 16 years old if I can chime in my opinion here, but definitely male :]

In this context, I think it's closest synonym would be "whippersnapper."  He was laughing when he said it.  No offense meant, that's for sure.

I would say you pass as a 14 or 15 year old male in all your pictures except the first and I think it was the second to last.  Those 2 would make me wonder a little bit, but all of the other I don't think I would question if you were a male to much.

Interesting, I've usually heard the term chav in relation to those who dress the whole hip hop thing. I guess depends on your area then?

I think chav refers basically to what we would call in the US "white trash".

Oh, and you look totally passable, Hazard.
