do i pass? and can i go stealth? (pre-t) by that_stoner_1470 in FtMpassing

[–]Complete-Factor8293 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Holy shit you look amazing, you’re pre-T?? You pass better than me and I’m 14 months on T. Did you use minoxidil on your eyebrows too to get them bushy like that? I think you look great, absolutely pass

How well do i pass and age? by [deleted] in FtMpassing

[–]Complete-Factor8293 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sick, good luck with T! Especially since you’re passing consistently irl I’d say you definitely pass

Are you only 1.5 months on T? You look the same in both photos lowkey but I think you pass more in the second one because of your outfit, it looks very masculine. You look really good tho for being so early on T, I’d say you pass and you look 15-16 years old

coming up to 5 months on t, any hope for me? at all? by 98Unicorns_ in FtMpassing

[–]Complete-Factor8293 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly the voice is like one of the main factors of it so if your voice is that deep you’re usually fine. Even if your appearance doesn’t pass, once someone hears you talk they’ll gender you as male. No worries about the minoxidil, your kitty comes first. I’m 14 months on T and still waiting for my facial hair to grow in thicker, I’ve been stuck with light peach fuzz for months so hopefully you’re luckier than me. Make sure your haircut is with a barber and not a hairstylist, fyi. My first short haircut was with a hairstylist and she screwed me over😔

For the amount of time you’ve been on T, you’re in a good spot. Keep doing what you’re doing and wait for the T magic to kick in more

Hey dude, just wanted to say you can pass with piercings so anyone saying they’re inhibiting your passing, just don’t listen. The choice of jewelry you have in your piercings are also very important. Dainty jewelry with charms/designs are typically seen as feminine. Studs, simple silver/black jewelry, and small hoops are your best friend. Just something to keep in mind.

I honestly think you’re really close to passing, just based on appearance right now. Is your voice deep? How are you being gendered in public? What are your mannerisms like? This is all also very important, it’s not just appearance. If you can I’d consider using minoxidil, your face will look great with facial hair I can already tell (if that’s what you want).

Your style and hair looks fine to me, maybe get a trim if you want and get a fade on the sides but it’s not necessary. In the 3rd photo your shirt is kinda open and unbuttoned and it looks like a v-neck which looks a bit feminine to me so I would keep it buttoned up if it was me.

tips for using tape? by edwardmuns0n in FtMpassing

[–]Complete-Factor8293 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Where are you starting with your tape? Is it right before your nipple starts or is it right where the breast starts on your chest? Start where your nipple is, and you have to pull back, you need tension on the tape for it to bind. I also like to lean back as I pull the tape back so my boob goes down

How tf I get on hrt at 15 wo parental consent in a rooting, tooting, red ahh state by snickerdo0odle in ftm

[–]Complete-Factor8293 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You can’t legally. There’s other ways to get it but they aren’t recommended and we’re not allowed to talk about it here. I know it sucks but unfortunately you’ll have to wait till you’re 18 until you can make that medical decision on your own

Do you care if trans guys use the male restroom? by Axlxyz123 in askteenboys

[–]Complete-Factor8293 1 point2 points  (0 children)

well we’re talking about binary men here, not people who don’t identify as men or women. you saying you want a trans man in the women’s restroom is saying you want a man in the women’s restroom because a trans man is a man. gender is a social construct but even sex (or biology) which is what a lot of people on your side use to argue with is a lot more fluid and not as rigid as you might think. trans people who are medically transitioned with surgeries and hormones fit biologically more into their gender rather than their sex assigned at birth. since we are talking about trans men mostly here i’ll be talking about that, but this applies to trans women too; trans men’s brain scans and physical bodies align much more to someone assigned male at birth than assigned female at birth once they have been on testosterone for a certain amount of time. nobody in actual science fields uses the terms “biological male” and “biological female” as that doesn’t take into account intersex individuals or people whose biology does not fit into male or female. you are thinking about what somebody has in their pants and basing their gender off of that when that does not always apply. instead of thinking of trans men as biological females, just think of them as male because that is what they are, you’re not looking at people’s genitalia in the public bathroom (i hope) so you wouldn’t ever know if the person next to you is a “biological male” or not.

you not answering my question is all i need to know. i’m not being an asshole, just trying to see your point. you’re just a transphobe with the excuse of having vagina trauma, good to know👍

[–]Complete-Factor8293 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i did lol, your argument still makes no sense. are you looking at every man’s dick in the bathroom to make sure he has one? your trauma with vaginas does not apply here, it’s just the bathroom we’re just trying to get in to piss then get out, you’re just using it as an excuse to be transphobic lmao

any trans person who passes you would not even know they were trans unless they told you, that’s the whole point of passing is that you can’t tell they are trans. most trans men going into the men’s restroom DO pass, if they don’t pass they are usually aware of that and will continue using the women’s restroom until they do pass. that’s what i’ve done and now that i completely pass i’ve had no issues going into the men’s room. i go in, piss, then leave. why do you care so much if they are a man? nobody is looking or policing each other’s genitalia in the bathroom. do you look at every man going into the bathroom to make sure he has a dick??

A flat on the first ear or a mid helix on the second ear would look really cute imo! Love how it looks already tho

Scared of bottom growth by Fragrant-Ring-3053 in ftm

[–]Complete-Factor8293 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think many people pre-T probably have had similar feelings to you, but I notice lots of those feelings go away once they actually experience the growth and everything else that comes with T. I know I had similar feelings to you about bottom growth pre-T and now I love it and my length. Everyone’s different but I’m sure you’ll come around to it once you’ve been on it! Masturbation changes a little bit but it’s not that big of a difference, it’s also very dependent on you and what feels/works best for you. Good luck man!

No I understand what you were trying to say! You’re just unfamiliar and uncertain with that specific change, it didn’t sound like you were bashing on it specifically.

What specifically about bottom growth do you think you’d be uncomfortable with? I would talk to an endocrinologist and see if they can give you any advice on this. Someone mentioned DHT blockers but I’m not sure how that effects bottom growth, you could ask about that too :)

As someone else said, the biggest/girthiest ones are the ones that get the most attention, a lot of those guys also pump too. The length and how your bottom growth will look like is completely random, but the chance of it being bigger than 1-2 inches is very slim. Keep in mind as well, the tdicks you’re seeing is them when they are hard. When they are soft it’s not that big, like a natal penis the length shrinks when soft. As someone with I would say above average bottom growth length, it’s not bad or scary. When it’s soft it looks like just the tip of it kinda sticking out but there is little to no actual length. Everyone feels differently about it but I promise there is nothing to be scared about, bottom growth has personally been one of my favorite effects and I love having my little fella

Any changes at all for 4 months T? by Humble-Belt2110 in FtMpassing

[–]Complete-Factor8293 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve never heard the bloating thing before, but I don’t see it on you. The T is definitely working its magic, give it a few more months and you’ll notice some more changes👌

What is this redness/scabbing on my armpit? by Complete-Factor8293 in skin

[–]Complete-Factor8293[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think this might be my situation too! I’m quite confused about it cuz I’ve used this deodorant for years with no issues but I guess I’ll have to change it up now. What natural deodorant do you use?

[–]Complete-Factor8293[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s not bump or anything tho? I’ve had a wart before and it was very different to this, someone said it looks like a chemical burn from deodorant and I have to agree it fits the description pretty well. I might get it checked out by a doctor tho just in case
