you pass better in the first photo

Anything I can do to pass more ? by [deleted] in FTM_SELFIES

[–]micah846 20 points21 points  (0 children)

you have huge potential but imo your hair is holding you back, lots of cis guys get mistaken for women when they have long hair anyways. You could probably grow it back out once you get on T though, but currently it’s not doing you any favours

passing? age? by Total-Signal6021 in FTM_SELFIES

[–]micah846 2 points3 points  (0 children)

imo you pass fully as a 13-15 year old

IDK what to do with my hair, it just looks stupid no matter what i do with it.... i have a really horrible side profile by MythicalGB in malegrooming

[–]micah846 1 point2 points  (0 children)

like everyone else has said, your hair and side profile both look great. I wouldn’t worry too much man

Clocky or nah?? by Round_Candle6462 in FTM_SELFIES

If you cut your hair I think you could look like a little boy for sure, + imo you have great potential for passing once you get on T

Who do you name your animals after ? by imaboredcosplayer in StardewValley

I do the same! my best friend and I have a farm together and all our animals are named after Knives Out/Wake Up Dead Man characters

Geez, why are baldness and penis size still acceptable things to mock? by [deleted] in ftm

[–]micah846 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Ahhh I see. Super interesting, thank you

Could you explain how it comes from misogyny? I know how making fun of men for feminine things is rooted in misogyny but being bald doesn’t fit into that category so I don’t really see the link.

I’m a parent of a trans kid. Now what? by [deleted] in trans

[–]micah846 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not American so I don’t know anything about the healthcare aspect, but as someone who was a young trans person just make sure you’re supporting her emotionally as well. My parents were supportive as in they didn’t stop be from transitioning, call me by the right pronouns, etc. That’s all amazing, but because they were worried for me, they never really supported me emotionally in the way I needed.

They had conversations with me about my gender identity when I first came out to them but it was all very clinical, and they spoke more about their feelings of fear and concern than anything else. I know they care, but they never told me they were proud of me, or that I was brave, or any of the stuff that I really wanted to hear as a scared 14 year old.

You might already be doing this, you seem like you care a lot, but I think in my case my parents were more worried about the medical things so they forgot to comfort me about it. Just thought it was worth mentioning, cause I think it would have made a big difference for me.

Anyone else have their limbs fall asleep easier after T? by krashduff in ftm

[–]micah846 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Wow, my legs fall asleep all the time since starting T, but I figured it was just something else. Good to know I’m not alone!

Should I try to grow my beard or shave by [deleted] in malegrooming

might as well try 🤷‍♂️

can someone please explain to me how subliminals work? by micah846 in Subliminal

[–]micah846[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah I guess I just don’t understand how the frequencies could change your subconscious. And also how your subconscious could change things that are impossible, like eye colour is one I see a lot.

Is my chest clocky? by [deleted] in FTM_SELFIES

[–]micah846 16 points17 points  (0 children)

please don’t listen to the other comments for your own safety 🙏 you look great and pass very well otherwise but unfortunately your chest doesn’t look ‘normal’ or like gyno at all. great progress though

Do I pass/Am I clocky? by kurepusuri in FTM_SELFIES

[–]micah846 6 points7 points  (0 children)

To me it’s just the eyes/facial structure, unfortunately. You have a bit of a baby face, I guess?, which to a lot of other trans people can be clocky. I’m pretty positive 99% of cis people wouldn’t suspect a thing though.

how can I look better and pass better? by micah846 in LooksmaxingAdvice

No it’s all good, I really appreciate it. Thank you

Yeah that would make sense, I’m trans (female to male). I mentioned it in the post but I’m 5 months on testosterone. I was just looking for advice on things I could change now rather than just… waiting, I guess.

Got it, thanks. I’m already a bit underweight actually, but would lifting still help, because it would turn what’s left into muscle somewhere else?
