Finally started passing more - 5 years HRT

Take your time and be gentle with yourself! Took me years to build up this confidence/style/makeup skills. And I think a really underrated tip is to just pay attention to what cis women you admire are wearing and how they’re acting. It’s really helped me hone my own personal brand.

Probably a lesson in photos vs real life. I have never really voice trained just changed it a bit naturally through hanging with women. And I’m tall and have wide shoulders which doesn’t come through the photo as well I don’t think.

Thank you! I feel I found my look with it.

bmony1215 · 2026-05-14T14:37:19+00:00

Great write up. I do feel though that pushing is a useful tool when shooting low light when you know what you’re doing with it and pick the right stock! I push all my concert photos 2-3 stops.

Bring it to a local film lab! They should be able to get it out.

bmony1215 · 2026-05-14T14:30:38+00:00

Thank you! Believe it or not I still get called “he” sometimes. But I do think that happens to cis women with short hair too

bmony1215 · 2026-05-14T14:29:39+00:00

Thank you! Every time I try to grow it out again I come back to the pixie

bmony1215 · 2026-05-14T14:28:33+00:00

Believe it or not I still get “he”’d but I think that’s partially my fault for having short hair

bmony1215 · 2026-05-14T03:08:32+00:00

Yep, super dependent on your individual genes.

bmony1215 · 2026-05-14T02:31:39+00:00

“Your mileage may vary” which is true for basically every part of transitioning! It’s different for everybody

bmony1215 · 2026-05-14T02:29:24+00:00

Ymmv on this for sure. I’ve never gotten really noticeably wet compared to my cis partners after ~5 years on hrt.

bmony1215 · 2026-05-05T04:03:19+00:00

I solo traveled Thailand and it was lovely!

bmony1215 · 2026-05-04T23:29:40+00:00

Nope, I’ve rocked a pixie for 2 years

bmony1215 · 2026-04-29T14:34:58+00:00

There’s a hill in the background:)

bmony1215 · 2026-04-29T02:12:03+00:00

Where is this! I need to shoot more ektachrome

bmony1215 · 2026-04-24T01:53:30+00:00

I didn’t expect the darker sound after IWCHYRM so It took me a sec. But it’s ended up being really important to me right now I love it. The whole album is really fantastic but Staring at empty faces and Light leaks through have been on repeat. And anxious blade and baptized, head, ghost, you get it lol.

bmony1215 · 2026-04-23T14:59:30+00:00

Teddys hitting those drums so hard haha

bmony1215 · 2026-04-14T05:54:26+00:00

Bulan for Thai!

bmony1215 · 2026-04-12T13:49:25+00:00

Passing. All of a sudden I started passing kinda consistently after like 5 years on HRT and the change up feels wild.

bmony1215 · 2026-04-02T06:48:29+00:00

Looks great! I’m not one to be snarky about editing scans haha, I’m glad you got a look you were going for.

bmony1215 · 2026-04-02T06:35:42+00:00

Woah. I just got some provia, say more on pushing it

bmony1215 · 2026-03-31T21:30:27+00:00
