ive gotten facial passing and voice passing about 90% of the time in the past few months, what can i do to help my body pass better, and what clothes would suit me, i generally wear more stereotypical gay clothes, as i am nonbinary (transmasc) but im scared it hinders my passing, does anyone have any general feedback or tips?
((i cannot wear a binder for various medical reasons))
Hello people! i have come to just tell any of my younger (or older) ((probably younger)) trans brothers that if people online are telling you, you cant be alt, you cant have dyed hair or piercings, they are lying to you, you just need to give your path time. i have spent the past two years of my life feeling so hopeless because i was trusting what people told me online, that i would never pass with my funky hair colours, longer hair and facial piercings. but i was determined to not let that part of myself go, its a part of me and it always will be. do what makes you happy, i pass 98% of the time currently, with shoulder length hair, 0 facial hair, 2 lip piercings, 3 nose piercings and stretched ears. men have these things to.
DO NOT let other people tell you how to live your life and how to present yourself, just be yourself, yes it may take a bit longer to pass but it will happen, i promise you.
you are not wrong for presenting how you do and dont lose what makes you happy to keep other people happy, you are not running out of time. If you ever feel like you can never pass because of the styles and stuff you like then you need to take time to yourself and just make sure youre happy before trying to make other people happy. i neglected myself for too long trying to make sure i pass, making sure that everyone saw me as a man, however, i have passed so much better and been so much happier since i just embraced myself. you need to be confident in yourself to pass and if its brightly coloured hair and piercings that help you with that then just do it, dont take that shit from other people, things will get better over time.
surround yourself with the right people. be yourself. make sure you are happy before other people. talk to people. talk to your friends. never bottle anything up. you can do this
got these guys today, just wanted some advice on looking after them properly, theyre indian stick insects specifically and i think theyre a range of ages. theres 5 of them but i think we plan on having a couple more, theyre currently in a temporary enclosure, we have a bigger nicer one on the way for them, i havent handled stick insects before and dont particularly know what im doing, apart from the very basics. anyone have tips/advice or anything i need to know?
ive gendered correctly multiple times in public recently and been told i should start using male toilets but i really dont believe i pass im scared to go into any gendered spaces because i dont want to make anyone uncomfortable but i also dont want to be attacked
7m T
okay so for context i have never passed, i think binary gender is bullshit and i generally label myself as genderfluid, but i am still born female and am transitioning to "male", i have been on T for like 7/8 months now and i just randomly started passing as male?? i have no idea what changed, im now passing in public daily, i havent changed my hair, piercings or anything, its not my voice as people are gendering me correctly without me speaking, i made some random lady double take in the toilets early today and she needed to stare at the female sign and back at me until i told her that she was infact in the right toilet. i have never been gendered correctly until the past 3 days where i have not been misgendered once.

first 2 photos are about 3 months ago
last two photos are this week
​
apologies for the blurryness in the photos, my camera is broken.
​
i see no difference?? does anyone have any idea whats changed or what im doing right that i need to keep on doing??
got given this camera by a guy i work with because it was our companys but it's missing the charger so it would get binned. i dont have the money to buy a charger at the moment and possibly not for a bit, i used it for a bit earlier and its now dead, how could i charge this without the charger? give me literally ANYTHING i think the camera is a RICOH Caplio R2 if im correct.
wanted to start wearing my glasses again recently, i stopped about 2 years ago due to dysphoria and now just occasionally wear them, if i should wear glasses, which ones? or should i just wait for a bit until i can get new frames?
sorry my rectangle ones arent a recent photo, i live between houses and their elsewhere currently, photos 2 and 3 are how i look today.
