    Hey guys! So I've reached the point where even without estrogen, people arent sure what I am sometimes, and I'm cool with that until I can start hrt. But I don't really know what people read me as so here's a link to my most recent pics.

    https://forum.emptyclosets.com/index.php?media/albums/nhd-2017.5451/

    Can you guys tell me what you read me as? Maybe also give some tips? I am wearing light makeup, but just foundation, blush, and mascara in these. Thanks!

    @ love don't judge: Athlethic female. That shirt does a lot of good to widen your hips.

    Have I got any chance of passing, based on my recent makeover - please ignore the facial hair, it was a spontaneous drag makeover... Thankyou all :slight_smile:

    Was in men's clothes in guy hair, I just wondered if there was a chance I could pass. Cheers.

    You definitely look female enough(if you had longer hair). You have really pretty eyes.

    @WeDreamOfPeace : You pass already now!

    @Cody18 : I like that your hair is shorter now. You look older that way. Right now, it makes your hairline look rather round, so I think you'd look even more masculine if you grew out the upper part just a bit.

    You do pass well. Your faceshape is still a bit round but I don't think anthing besides T would help with that. Still, the rest balances it out.

    It's nothing but facts. I actually thought you were a guy looking for passing advice at first because you look 100% like an afab girl.

    I agree, I also think playing around with how I style it may help with that, but thank you for the advice it really means a lot!

    Thank you. I also think in terms of your look you can definitely pass too!

    I agree, thank you for your feedback!

    So queer. I absolutely cannot guess which gender you identify as. Which is a compliment. I dig it.

    My first thought was, "woah, she's really pretty." I'd not have guessed you weren't female to start, and did you do your makeup? Fabulous.

    I think you pass definitely yes.

    The only criticism I have is the hair parting as it isn't aligned with your fringe (bangs?) when most people's hair does align in this way. However this is the only thing that I think could act to take away passing ability.

    Otherwise you're looking great!
