Ok, a few days ago I was at the library working on my math homework (linear algebra), when a bunch of high school kids came and set up shop at the table next to me. Anyway, I overheard them wispering "is that a guy or a girl?" clearly in reference to me.  In ages past that would have irritated me, but now I think it may be a good sign. Not that staring/gossiping teenagers is good thing, but rather that my chances of passing someday may good. If people are looking at me in male mode, having done nothing so far as transition goes, and seeing female, then I probably shouldn't worry too much about passing after transition. At least, I hope so.

Any thoughts?

I used to love when people did that to me. At first I took it as a compliment, then it started getting out of hand. It's a good indicator of how far you've come transition-wise and it's also pretty fun to watch them try to pick an answer. Congrats on the progress! It sounds like you're off to a good start.

God, I wish that would happen to me!! lol.
Anyway, yeah take it as a compliment
If you've got them guessing now, you should'nt have any trouble at all with passing once you transition.

I walked into a restaurant the other night escorted by a guy. People looked at me and I thought 'Oh S**t' they are making me, I realised then that the woman were looking me over and smiling, guys were looking.

The owner came over to seat us, moving his front of service away.

I hadn't been clocked, I had made it.

Felt wonderful.

Yep one person's annoyance is another persons re affirmation eh.

If they can't tell, that is a good indicator that you are in the middle and could go either way with more effort.

My mom mentioned to me (she pointed out it was not to hurt me) that from the neck up I was clearly male.

Well it was no revelation of course, the male pattern hair loss is like a great big sign that yells out MALE.

Smelling nice and longer hair and a necklace is not going to undo the hair loss EVER.

But, a wig can fix that. And then one has to wonder, what would they see then?

My face seems to be quite the male cut, as I have noticed while wearing a hoodie recently (I have never worn one till very recently when I needed a new light jacket). The moment it is just my face I seem a lot harsher and less soft. So I suppose that is something I need to learn to work with.

But my friend Sierra that showed me this site in the beginning, heck I have seen some of the images she has taken, and her transformation is incredible. If she can match from the neck down, with the neck up, she can likely look forward to making men horny.

I've had that pretty much my whole life. Had people come right up to my face 'are you a boy or a girl?' Why the hell it even matters to them I have no idea. Its always extremely irritated me, never even considered taking it as a compliment as to me it should be obvious what I am so why are you asking. I didnt even know how to answer it honestly. What I am outside is no reflection of who I am inside (like I also hate any forms or whatever whether it says 'gender' or 'sex' Im never sure what to put) I probably didnt even answer it most of the time and just ignored them

If you take it as a compliment then I think that puts you one up over them. If no changes have been made and they're questioning it, it gives good hope that you will be fine. I agree that it gives you a better chance of passing fine post transition, any changes should sway them from questioning to knowing. After transition of course it wouldnt be the best thing to hear though but for now its not that bad. After, hopefully you never have to hear any of that again. Good that it no longer bothers you though, they're honestly not worth getting angry over

Sounds like you've made progress. Congrats!
