Hey yall! I have been out and full time for just over a year. I still have personal issues with my height, Im too tall. There I said it, it's out there. Im dealing with it.    Im going to school full time and am looking for a job. So Im all out there and stuff, but im just not sure im foolin anyone yet. Just to be clear I dont want to fool anyone, I just want to blend in as a woman; I guess I am asking, do I blend?



7 months HRT, June 2012. This was right after an interveiw.

You look like a woman, in fact you look like my friend Monica, she plays basketball and I always try to flirt with her ^.^

Thank you so much! I get "Sir" alot and more male pronouns than female at this point. So I really start to wonder, Thank you. Made my night, and I have had a pretty good night!

Hi girlfriend,
       You're looking just great, I love your photos. You're a bit on the androgynous end for the time being like so many of us are, but after all it is called transition for a good reason. You're looking good now and will get even better as time goes on. What's wrong with being tall, tall girls look beautiful! A number of Victoria's Secret models and famous runway models are six feet tall and above. Yes you blend!

Thank you so much, I finally enjoy hearing the truth! Im happy with adrogynous, after a year, im content. Im still adjusting to being fulltime and doing all this stuff in public that I have hidden for so long. I love it, dont get me wrong and ill never go backwards, so onward we go!

Hi everyone, a little nervous about this but here goes. Had some time to myself tonight so had my first attempt with a little make up. I know I need to sort under my eyes, maybe I should be sleeping now instead of posting this!

Anyway, do I have a chance of passing? I'm 30, 6'2, 173lb and pre-everything bar 3 IPL sessions and some weight loss. My height and big feet are what put me off when I first had gender worries ten years ago, wish I hadn't been so stupid then!





I want to say be gentle, but what's the point? Let me have it (Gently! )

Your comment "I wish I hadn't been so stupid then" has echoed through the hallowed halls of Susan's Place each year and I am one who has cried about it so often, so you're definitely not alone. You have a nice face to begin with so yes you could pass some day without too much effort and a little FFS. Nice head of hair and you have a fairly trim and slim body type, so what's holding you back? Go for it.

You look very good. I think if you trim your hair so you have bangs it will feminize your face more and bring more attention to your beautiful eyes.

hopefully getting ffs in 2013 with dr bart

Hello, everyone! I've already posted once in the old thread, but I've since went through almost a year of physical change before having enough courage to see a gender therapist. That said, I am starting estrogen within a couple of days.

My excitement can't be described, and the butterflies in my stomach make it so incredibly hard to think about anything else at this point.

Judging by these pictures, is it fair to assume that estrogen will work okay on me? Blunt honesty is welcome, so kindly be honest.
For the record, I am 22 years old as of September, just shy of 6' tall and willow-thin. Specifically, I am most uncertain of my nose and my jawline, as well as this wild hair that I hope will behave at some point.

This is me in February 2012:

...and an unforgiving oblique shot to keep it company:

how come you cut your hair ?

I was in the U.S. Navy. 
That first photo was taken shortly after being discharged.

Hi all,
This is me, hair tied back and absolutely no makeup (laying in bed cause I'm lazy :p ). I've been full time for about 5 months now and on hrt for about 20 months. I turned 32 a couple of months ago. Just wondering if I'm passable in a "natural" state (ie, hair back, no makeup)


Also, here's a picture that shows my figure. I was sunbathing the otherday and saw my own reflection in the glass and couldn't resist a totally narcissistic photo lol (I also don't own any big mirrors lol) I was surprised by how much my overall figure has softened and gotten a little curvy... Still not totally happy with it though, Id like to get the abdominal tightening thing done that accentuates the waist (can't remember the name)

I do not see anything about you that says "male" your body is curvaceous and your face is soft and warm.

Looking good Isabelle, very girly even cis!

All girl! very pretty! 

Thanks for the comments people ,

Flandre, you do have a "strong" jaw but, you'll be surprised how much that softens on hrt. I think you have very lovely eye. I think if you had your eyebrows shaped you'd be amazed at the difference it makes to your over all appearance. Give hrt some time, you'll be happy

Hi Everyone,

This is my second post after my intro. Hoping to start hormones and lose a lot of weight in the new year. I don't have a clue if I am doing this right or putting my big wedge heels in it but this is me with makeup and a cheap fancy dress wig trying to find my look. Yes the foundation is trowelled on (can't wait for electrolysis!).


Sorry about the silly pouty face


The intellectual?

Gawd, you're already pretty! Love your little bow of a mouth, pretty lips, probably a lot more to say but we don't want you getting a big head over it hon!

Flandre: Congrats!  I think you have some nice features, too- eyes, cheekbones, and nose, for starters.  And your chin is a bit square now, but I feel like your jawline should round out nicely with HRT.  There's a good canvas there!

Alright, time for me to finally join the club.  This was also my first time playing around with eye makeup...clearly concealing the beard shadow is the next step (and this is ~an hour after a close shave).



Cropped out: the monstrously veiny forearm.  Ugh.  Anyways...thoughts?
