    I remind everyone here who lacks confidence in themselves, PLEASE go back and look at my old pictures and see how crappy I looked.

    I leave my old albums up for posterity sake and to show people the evolution of a person and their appearance.

    Do I pass?

    In my albums, under My Face are a few headshots, now obviously I don't yet have a binder, but it's been ordered. I was wondering if my face seemed masculine or if it gives me away...

    You get a pass... but the young boy curse strikes again as with most trans guys.

    I hope I look my age. Or at least someone who's an 18-year-old Asian dude.

    I've known a bunch of asian dudes your age who looked a lot like you. Many of them even look less masculine than you do, so I think you're fine.

    I'd say you're looking good, but the hair looks wrong with those eyebrows. I have coworkers with the same problem, though.

    So what? I don't pass because of my eyebrows not matching my hair?

    Really?

    If I'm going blonde I can't lighten my eyebrows.

    Fine I'll never go blonde again.

    Wow, take it easy, she was just giving her opinion, one in which she never said you didn't pass.

    And darker brows can work with blond, just play with the shades a bit.

    I get irritated when people say "something is wrong" without explaining what.

    My graduate advisor told me this during my thesis "I wouldn't do it that way because it's wrong".

    Why is it wrong?

    "I don't know, but it's wrong".

    That irritates the shit out of me when people do it.

    Well I'd say she did explain...

    Maybe this makes you laugh:
    saw a video with two racecar drivers... one said there are only two ways: my way and the wrong way...

    had a colleague who said there is always another way to do things...

    so lighten up...

    and concerning colours, I wouldn't have guessed, and it looks natural to me...
    no need to keep that in mind, imo...

    well its prob a thing only insiders would look at anyways...

    on a more funny note, there are blondes with blond, and with dark pubic hair :slight_smile:
    its natural...

    I wasn't saying you didn't pass. It was more of your eyebrows make that hair color not look natural on you. I have co-workers that do exactly the same thing. One has her hair bleached almost white, and she has brown eyebrows. It really makes her hair color look unnatural.

    So? Deal with it. Sometimes shit just looks off. I don't think the blonde wig really works with you. You don't see that color of blonde on most people and in that thick of a pattern, it can be attention drawing.

    Alright, I've been on here for almost a week now and I decided I really like this community and I'm going to stay. I enter many communities but stay in very few.

    So I'm going to post a picture of me on my profile and this will be only the second community where I show it at all.

    Robin was my birthname, but Abigail is my name now and this is me. So EC, do I pass?

    Why tank you. I've just got to get rid of the beginning to that double chin I'm starting to get. I've gone up like 10 kilograms since I had my son.
