So I look very ugly and honestly don’t look feminine at all and just look like a guy with girls’ clothes draped over him. I have been on HRT for a year and 6 months, I went from 4 to 6mg in April and I still look pretty terrible, I am not sure what I can do differently and I feel like maybe I am overweight which ruined my chances at ever passing and I should have lost it pre hrt. all of my selfies including this one are taken at angles to make me look better, this is one of the few photos I have at a normal angle (this was taken before my college graduation) as you can see I pretty much just look like a dude. I am honestly not even sure if FFS could help me or if a doctor would even consider it worth while.
FOR THE DUMBASS PEPES from the troll instances in the comments I will not listening to your comments, thank you.
You look like my algebra teacher from high school, but younger. Sorry you’re not, like, Scarlett Johansen (or whoever else the reader may find attractive) looking, but you still look like a woman.
I want to second this and also add that I hate running into this vibe sometimes where trans women seem to believe that they’re less valid as women if they aren’t model beautiful? Which, as a ciswoman… my ciswoman friends and I will absolutely tear each other to shreds for that kind of internalized misogyny and I keep finding myself having to holster that aggressive knee-jerk reaction when I see trans ladies doing it because I worry that, online, it would read as aggressive against the lady posting and not against the system in her head telling her that she has less value as a woman for (whatever stupid reason)!
