    I can answer that. There are no pictures visible for us to see on your profile.

    They were there yesterday (unless they only appeared for me?), but after the person who posted after me got half a dozen responses and I got none, I got embarrassed and deleted them.

    I also just wanted to say not to hesitate with the truth, I know I'm extremely feminine (my parents don't accept me, I can't even wear men's deodorant), but I can take the truth and just want opinions on how to appear more masculine. I'm changing my glasses soon as well.

    -- my pictures are a few posts back

    Yo Kit I'd be glad to give you opinions, whether you want to put them in an album on your profile or post them here for a short bit. Nobody's responded to mine yet so I get how you feel and I'd love to help out

    Yes my settings were on that, but I changed it and then changed it back just now. Maybe that worked?

    The framing and way your head is tilted is a little more on the androgynous/feminine side. You're glasses being so large and rounder is also leaning more feminine. You seem to have a smaller, rounder face. If you lift your head more and try not closing your teeth, your jaw will look more defined and taller, which would look more masc.

    I would pin you as Nonbinary if I saw you on the street, TBH

    Cool, thanks! I was mainly tilting my head because I had a limited light source and was trying to get my head in the frame and the light xD I'll definitely take into account what you've said.

    I actually think you look more masculine than feminine. If I walked by on the street, I would probably think you were a teenage boy. You do look rather young, though. Maybe a shorter haircut or slightly smaller glasses would help to make your face look older. But you are definetely able to pass.

    You look like a cute 13 year old boy to me. Though it kinda looks like you're wearing makeup.

    Oh sorry - I don't know how to fix that :/

    ---------- Post added 18th Jan 2017 at 06:30 PM ----------

    Ha yeah I know, that's one thing that I have a bit of an issue with especially with my eyelashes, but I've never worn a drop of makeup in my life.

    To me you look like you could pass as male, albeit a very young one, maybe twelve to thirteen (like me haha). As for tips, get a shorter haircut, your current haircut is more of a kid's haircut and it contributes to you looking younger than you are. Also try some smaller glasses, as they should make your head look larger in comparison. All that may have already been said for all I know, but that's as much as I can think of based off those pictures.



    I was one of the first people to respond to the other post you referred to, and although I would have liked to help you out as well I could not find your photos on your profile or in this thread. I reckon you should try reporting them, and check the privacy settings before you do.

    Oh, thank you so much for telling me this! So it was all just due to me messing up with the pictures somehow. I'll try again. :slight_smile:

    No problem, let us know when you do. Also, when I wrote "reporting" in my last post I meant to write "reposting", in case you didn't figure that out.
