Ok, I'm passing a bit, but not mostly. I think it's my age, as I can't look like a very much younger guy. I think my face has changed shape since I have been on T for three months.

Darkie, I'd guess you at 19-20 years. And yeah, you pass for sure, but you already knew that

And D0ll, I think you're passing pretty well from what I see on that pic. It's a bit on the edge maybe, probably because of your eyebrows, but your face-shape looks really manly to me. I'd either gender you as a butch lesbian or a gay guy right now I think. Depending on mannerisms, body and voice.

I was 20 in that pic, it was 5 years ago. I look much more feminine now... Unfortunately...

You look like one of the gentlemen that came into work today to eat! I work at a restaurant. 

Jay, you look GREAT! So happy for you and think you're a great inspiration to the trans community. 

Jay,

You look absolutely terrific.

I don't usually post here but I had to say that...

Yeah, I don't see why you don't pass (mostly, as you said in your post), Jay. You look male to me, I wouldn't even think about it.

Thanks guys!! I think I look a bit my dad, which is not at all a bad thing.

Might be my size (5'1"), lack of body hair and no facial hair. At a certain age it would be unusual not to have facial and body hair. Strangely I think that T has masculinized my face before giving me ANY body hair. Might be my age? This is my face pre and post T

Yea, if I met you on the street I wouldn't suspect a thing. You honestly look like someone's father.

Wow Jay, you look really good. I don't see why you don't pass always. What I noticed is that your hands are so masculine 

Jay, you pass, seriously man! You look like an awesome sweet guy too, you look better now than you did as a woman 11 years back It somehow fits you a lot better or something
If I saw you on the street I wouldn't think for a second you were a female, just sayin'

I remember seeing that pre T picture youd posted before, and unfortunately I didn't think you passed in it, but gosh, you've come far! Youre passing well now   The haircut suits you and you look happier.

Hey Jay,
      If I met you at Starbucks or out on the street I would surely clock you as a man, you really look great! The haircut, shirt and tie does if for you as well, very nice presentation! About body hair, back about 19 years ago I started shaving my legs, which I only had to do a couple of times and it never grew back. I think my lack of body hair is both age and genetics related. I had started on the facial stuff and finally quit that as well as it was pretty light back then, though I still give it a good scraping every day just for drill. So to me you look like a really nice, dignified and refined gentleman to me.

Thanks darkie, I'm 22 so ill take that.

Jay, you're looking really good. The pre t to now comparison is already such a huge difference!

Did you ever see me 11 years back? The other picture is 1 *year* ago, which is kind of hard to believe as I think my face has changed a lot. Funny thing, my hands have not changed-- they were always veiny like that. But they are small.

Might actually be something *else* like body language or something. Long sleeves help a bit also but it is now about 85 outside!
(and a zillion in the car). Though perhaps I pass more than I think. I almost exclusively use men's changing rooms and bathrooms and never get a sideways look.

@M.I.G.  Nah don't think I passed at all pre-T. I think I just posted.

@Shantel --body hair is an age and genetics thing. I kind of lost all my hair that I had at a certain age. I might actually get facial hair, have a wispy little 'stache right now.

Re: haircut, want to get rid of bangs. They work ok if they are combed, but I walk around the house and if I see myself in a mirror, bangs look feminine. Not sure what I'd do with it though.

Jay:
I think you pass 100%! And I think your age is actually probably working in your favor, rather than against it. I can't imagine how well you'll pass after just a few more months!

Well facial hair is yet another matter, being on testosterone you can be assured that you'll have some whiskers. I use a tiny amount of T cream to have some kind of libido and even that causes what facial hairs I have left from several years of electrolysis to become rather course and I get some hair on my forearms which I never had before, my wife likes it. I'm not your typical MtF so it works for my cis spouse.

Let me say once again that I think your transitional outcome is remarkable, you look really great!

Just from hip to neck, not looking at the seam (cause this shirt is big and none are tight enough to show the seam). I was trying out a new binder here. I didn't like the way it felt but I think it gets me flat enough. Sadly it doesn't also suck in m stomach like a 997.

Nygeel, is it a tri top? Whatever it is it gets you crazy flat so that's great. I've been disappointed with how my 997 has been binding my chest but I need the stomach compression so badly right now, I've put on so much weight in my gut. You look great tho!

nygeel, looks great! yeah i always hated that about the tri-top, its great for binding, but made my belly look 10x bigger lol

It's a tritop, but the bottom rolls up weird so I just folded the bottom up until it reached around the bottom of my chest. It feels a little better but doesn't feel so great. I tend to just wear the 997 because the fat on my hip bones is...well...it's very there. Shirts don't fit unless I've got some binding on my hips and belly.
