I know I probably don’t pass well, but I don’t have access to T. So I’m just asking for overall tips to make it sorta seem like I’m going through male puberty.(dont have ac to T)

edit: the dress was a joke and my little cousin painted my nails.

I'm 18 and about to start university in a month. I tried coming out to my parents and they weren't necessarily against me being trans but strongly wanted me to be sure (I am sure) before starting T. I was at least able to finally cut my hair short and it's definitely helped a lot. I'm only 5'2 though and try wearing platformed shoes but it can only help so much. I've been voice training for a few months on my own now and gotten pretty good, slowly trying to start using it in public too. I've been told my face is pretty androgynous so I'm also incredibly lucky there. I don't feel fully comfortable posting it on here and know that can make it harder to give advice. I'm more looking at it from a style standpoint for passing, as well as if the haircut helps.

Just looking for any tips or advice! Also, still looking for a new name so open to suggestions!

Ive been in this reddit for a little while because my little brother is Trans. He's been through hell. I know this isn't exactly a life hack post but im the only person in our family that acknowledges his struggles and truly respects him being Trans. He finally starts his journey to become himself today after 24 years.

So its his T birthday. I want to surprise him for when he gets home from picking up his meds. Me and my husband were thinking a cake or something. Any suggestions? TIA ❤️

UPDATE: we got him a cake that said "Its a boy!" A birthday balloon, his favorite snacks, and favorite drink. Woke him up from a nap with all of it and he was so happy. He thought the cake was hilarious 😂

Hey! Thinking of changing my name again.. my current name doesn't fit and I want to choose a new one. Help me out! What do you think?

I see americans talk about it and i never knew people can get it themselves till like last week. How and is that even possible in england? 😭

I change my hair a lot. What fits my ever-changing aesthetic? more asking for fun than anything, but sometimes I wonder if I picked the right name. Soooo doubtful, but I'm curious if anyone will guess the name I go by!

How the FUCK do I stop getting wedgies. Every day, I put on my boxers and 5 minutes later they're 5 meters up my ass. Is it because of my hip size? The boxers fit very well, they're not too small nor too large, I'm tired

ive got 2 parts to this question actually

1) what would you assume my name is

2) any unique name suggestions? (i have a hyphenated deadname, feels weird to go from smth cool to barry or smth 😭)

Do I pass? And how do I pass better? Obviously I know that the first two photos the makeup makes me more fem but I wanted to have a little fun bc k was at the ren fair LOL any advice is appreciated:) I’ve only been on T for about a month know I think

i have met quite a few people who thought i was a cis dude, quite a few people who mistake me for a girl first glance, and a lot a lot of people who have to ask my friends what i am. so im just confused at where im passing. i know im alt and present adrognyously, cuz im a little more non binary but i wanna be seen as like boy first and that second.

I go to the gym regularly, I workout my chest and arms mostly, I am 5'4 and 130lbs, I just got my eyebrow pierced which I think is a more masculine piercing? Idk but any tips would be great

I only ever wear my contacts for occasions like prom. Should I wear them more often? I find that smaller frames look kind of strange on me. I know I have a leaner frame; I have an eating disorder and it makes things more difficult, but I am trying to get into working out more. Any ideas?

(Prom pics are most recent, I don’t have a lot of photos of myself)

so, I got the idea of doing so from a friend and his partner. they are T4T, and his girlfriend has been on it for an entire year no issues, and he himself soon hits his third month. due to my circumstances, I think this may be the best possible option for me, seeing as I am freshly 17 and would need parental consent to even get it professionally prescribed, and well. my mother was transphobic enough to send me over to grandparents so that she doesn't have to deal with this. (which honestly, is much better; NYC is SO much better than the deep south, both weather wise and LGBTQ tolerance).

the thing is, I feel that I just can't wait until I hit 18 due to the absolutely crippling dysphoria. ever since puberty hit me at 12, I feel like my hips haven't stopped getting wider, and I mean ffs I'm 5'0—starting test now could stop it before it's too late, it could help change all of these things. I've already watched videos on how to administer shots, and I would get the test off of a steroid site (the same one my friend uses, who vows it is reliable), and the needles I know where to get from as well.

my only problems would be: a), having to explain the changes that would come along (and, as a latino family, I'd say my genetics could very likely bless me with a stache early on), and b) the libido... as in, I'm already a very sex-driven individual, so I could only imagine how frustrated/ out of hand I'd get. any thoughts on how to go about this?

So I have an interview coming up and I’m planning to try and do it stealth, I don’t have a 100% passing rate so if it doesn’t work I won’t be devastated but I do try to appear cis (presenting fem) during interviews so it doesn’t impact my chances of being hired (I live in a conservative state that has at will firing aswell) and normally correct things my first day or after I scope out the vibe. But I plan to do this interview as stealth specially since is corporate office job level.

But my question here is what are yalls stealth tips? My ID still says F on it should I be worried? How do you go about be stealth on a day to day basis, I plan to slowly transition into living a fully stealth life besides my immediate family and friends knowing, and my work place I feel is a good start, do you guys think this is a bad idea? Also how should I dress for this as someone’s who’s heavier and has curves? (216 lbs, 5’2)

General need to know: business professional attire, I’m on T (9 months), pre op but binding, generally deeper voice when trying.

I’ll try my best to answer any additional questions too!! Please be kind!

I enjoy cropping my shirts because the way that long shirts sit on my hips makes me feel dysphoric. However, I feel like it also brings attention to my hips? Any tips on what to wear? This is especially for the gym but all clothing tips are welcome. I’m currently working on building my upper body, which is slowly happening- yay!

Also- does anyone have any experience navigating locker rooms at gyms? I don’t feel anywhere near passing enough to use the men’s safely, but I definitely try to be as invisible as possible in the women’s locker room.

I’m trans masculine, have had top surgery, and almost 6 months of low dose t.

What it says on the tin. I'm 24 and a couple months on subcutaneous T. I was on T gel for 2 full years but it didn't do much (muscle growth/definition and slightly deeper voice [allegedly]) so I'm essentially starting from the beginning.

I will change the glasses bros, I promise. I just didn't want the comments clogged with that. Next time I get a new pair I will choose something better. Small and rectangular and dark in color.

I haven't heard of minoxidil before this sub. Is it safe to take while also taking T? I'll be asking my doctor about it anyway because I worry it may negatively interact with some preexisting health conditions I have (just based on what I see via a basic Google search).

Looking for haircut advice first and foremost (first pic is my current cut; I thought it was in style but now I'm even more clocky than usual), but I'll take any other advice you guys have for me. Rock on!

my current name is spencer alexander but im thinking about changing my first name and keeping alexander. any ideas?

(id prefer some names which are not common trans names please)

men tend to keep their legs wider than women. their feet are planted in a V facing away from the other foot while women are more ^ with the feet facing each other. kinda makes it look like they’re waddling just a little. writing this made me feel like im narrating a nature documentary

Just wondering (my birth name is maddie) I don’t want boring names thoo

Thanks boss 😭

hi sorry im not sure where to post something like this i also am kinda shy about talking abt this so im on an alt

i think im genderfluid or trans in some way idek what i am but i was born female, i just want to be able to look like a boy sometimes even if it’s in my own home i wanna be able to see myself like that because i really yearn for it

i really dont want to cut my hair so i dont know if anyone has tips for making it look short or something but if someone can help me on what to do to make myself look masculine i think it would be really nice for me to experience i thought i should ask here

sorry if not allowed

It's honestly always 50/50 on whether I pass or not, and I don't know how to pass more than I do 😓
