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.
Let me start by saying your insecurities are completely normal and something all women go through whether they were born a woman or not. Society puts forward a standard of beauty that is literally impossible to achieve naturally. Women come in all shapes and looks and you and they should not feel pressured to have to please others with how you look, and also, you don’t look bad.
It’s also perfectly fine to want to look better for yourself, and you are 100% capable of doing that and looking more feminine. You can mold your eyebrows, do your hair, learn makeup. Look up makeup tutorials online and see how insane of a transformation they can achieve, both men and women. Even if you decide you don’t care about changing your look, it’s a very valuable reminder that most people’s outward appearances are not natural.
Again, you should not feel pressured to do any of that, but you should also not feel like you cannot learn to have more control over how you look if you choose to. I don’t want to pretend that personal appearance has no impact on your personal confidence but I also don’t want to pressure you to feel like you need to do a bunch of things either, so I don’t want to be like do this and that to conform to a societal beauty standard, but I do want to say that there is nothing intently wrong with how you look that would prevent you from doing so.
