So, I pretty much pass if I want to, looks wise. The problem comes in when I open my mouth and start talking.
I'm not going full-time or anything at the moment although most people in my school [or at least the people I associate with] know I got me boobs chopped off over winter break. I suppose mostly at the moment I'm applying this to work. I mean I guess its not their fault and that I shouldn't blame them, but it just makes my blood boil when I get "Ma'am" at work. I mean really... I spent an entire semester talking to this kid and he thought I was a guy the whole time yet these jackasses talk to me for 30 seconds and despite outward appearances decide yes this is a female [/mini rant]
anyway now that I'm done rambling out what I now realize is an almost entirely pointless backstory [but seeing as I typed it I may as well leave it]
What are some ways to masculine-ize your voice without just sounding ridiculous?
I mean my voice is probably on the mid-low end of an average female voice [its not like DAMN have you smoked a pack a day since middle school? but its certainly not in the higher range] as far as inflection and all that goes lets face it I talk like a stoner kid from southern california(grew up there) so its pretty laid back and mumbly but at work I have to speak up and be all enthusiastic and polite and I'm not sure how to do that in a less female sounding voice.
Try talking from your stomach dude, it works for some people! Concentrate on making your voice deep.
There isn't any "quick" or "easy" ways to deepen your voice without T unfortunately :(

Practicepracticepractice. Always drop your voice, just remember to do it all the time and soon it will become a habit. It is easy to make yourself talk in a low monotone, but being about to manipulate it through different emotions, such as being enthusiastic and polite takes practice. Lots of it.
