I can't find the option to upload a photo, could somebody lend me a hand? Cheers

are you talking avatar? in that case, you have to wait til you have 15 posts. If you are talking posting one in a post, you need a pic hosting site like photobucket and then link it or use the img tag.

Ok, i don't know why we can't just attach it to the post but eh, ill get on it then, thanks

Server space, etc..

Its not hard to set up a free account on photobucket, then upload there and then post it here with the insert image thingy.

imgur is good too. You don't need an account, though you can make one to save your photos together.

You look like you could pass with little effort to me... not that I have much experience. I have permanent 5 o'clock shadow... going to make a groupon hair removal appointment asap, I think

I think nearly every MAAB, presenting as a man, would come across as "not able to pass" to an outsider.

Well this has certainly brightened my day
Im not hairy in the face at all thank god, despite being less than 2 weeks away from 19

Nice jaw and chin. Very OK-ish hairline as much as I can see. Forehead looks aaaalright - I cant understand if You have some brow ridge line there or not, or what I am seeing there are facial muscles (which should go away with the HRT). Nose is quite neutral too. You probably wont make for a beauty contest but You might pass as a pretty, confident athletic girl - You can always say that You are into competitive swimming .

Thanks . I actually used to be a competitive swimmer haha. Im glad to know that this could go well for me

You have age on your side,and you look good.As a rule good looking guys generally make good looking girls.

Looking at Your shoulders I kinda suspected that, lol. Besides, if You will make such claim as a female - You should be perfectly able to back Your words up then .

Hahaha thats a good point. I still want to keep my physical fitness throughout transition, swimming is a great way to do that

My shoulders are fairly wide, my feet are huge. I can't live like this anymore, the depression has become too much, i think i just need to take the leap of faith.
Well at the moment i cannot act girly around anyone, im just way too embarrassed in front of my family and friends :/
I honestly would be happy to be just an average woman, i can't even look at women without feeling sadness and pain

Really don't let others enforce entirely artificial gender roles on you.  Some genetic girls don't act "girly."  Some genetic guys don't act macho.

Just be yourself.

I find wide-shouldered female swimmers to be very attractive.

Yeah i have female friends who arent very girly, they kinda act as role models for me.
Yeah stephanie rice is amazing haha, although not too broad shouldered

Missy Franklin



Tall too ... 6'1"

Wow she can really pull of a short skirt! I envy her haha

I agree with everyone here too You'll look great. And true about good looking boys making good looking girls and vice versa  And you're definitely good looking  *blushes* lol

Thanks ladies im really excited to transition now :p
