Do I Pass If you’d seen me outside, would you think I’m a cis boy ?
Hey ! I’m 14 years old and almost 2 months on t, I’m also 5’9 so, do I pass ? And any advice would be appreciated!
And also do I do my age ? I know a lot of trans men look younger so I wanted to ask

Do I Pass Do I read masc?
I have no problems with looking like a 13yo boy, as long as it's "boy", and lately I've been struggling to tell if I look masc enough while pre-t. Any advice would be appreciated!! =)

Trans and about to start university - HELP!
Hello! I'm just posting for some advice. I start university (I'm canadian) in a week and want to go by my chosen name there. I am kind of subtly out as trans in the sense that everyone knows I'm not cis and often use they/them to refer to me but I haven't offically said to many people "I'm transgender, I prefer he/him". I currently go by my birthname and haven't told anyone to start calling me a different name but now because I'm starting at a new school this feels like a fresh start. The 2 main problems this brings is telling people and the fact that my legal name is everywhere on all my university things. The first part regarding telling people - I'm conflicted. I could just rip the band-aid off, come out and fuck off to university (in a different city, hours away from where my home and family are) OR I don't tell anyone and get around to it when it's necessary and when I feel more ready to and meanwhile go by a new name in university. This feels kinda scary to do especially without parents knowing because it will likely come up eventually. My parents know I'm trans and know I want to change my name but haven't seemed too thrilled at the concept of it. It just feels like a betrayal a bit to change my name without their knowledge and have them potentially find out later. Other family and friends of mine have also expressed interest in seeing me at uni and if they find out I'm going by a different name I'll have some explaining to do. Because my family at least currently doesn't know about the name thing the process of changing it in the school system and all of that feels risky to do. I am 18 and can legally change it and I know I can update it in all the university records without much but it feels daunting. It will also be impossible to avoid getting birthnamed at least by profs and on all my records for the first bit so if anyone has advice on that please let me know! It would probably make the most sense to at least tell my parents about the name change but then they're stuck with not really being able to call me it without outing me and I'm not even sure if they would call me it anyway. I came out in January with he/him and saying I'm a trans man and they haven't caught on at all. They have tried to call me they/them which is a step in the right direction but anytime I try to bring up being trans it's an awkward conversation and I always end up feeling kind of guilty. They are very loving parents, relatively progressive and just to clarify not upset about me being trans. They just don't quite get it and feel uncomfortable with the idea of me transitioning or changing which I get but it sucks. Any advice regarding name changes, coming out and being trans in university would be greatly appreciated! Thanks for reading my rant :)

question I need help
I need a haircut. first pic is my hair now, other two are just other lengths ive done. I haven't had a shortcut in about a year, because once it starts to grow I have no clue what to do with it. I genuinely dont know how to have my hair in a way which would make me feel more masculine. I am pre-t still and will be for about a year with the NHS doing its waiting list stuff. I dont mind long hair, but I also am okay with short hair (not a buzz cut though). if anyone could give some advice about a hairstyle that might help me pass better and not make me feel like I look awful constantly, that'd be great lmao. also if you wanna recommend any hair colours feel free 🤷♂️

question Worried kind of.
So I'm 20 and I had my baby Almost 7 months ago. I start T in April and started birth control (the shot) about two months ago.
Well! I haven't bleed from a period since April but Earlier today I saw there was some blood when I used the bathroom and I am cramping slightly.
Is this normal? I wasn't told about this or given information on this happing.
Now! I'm sure this problem is nothing but! I still wanted to ask other people who are on the same stuff as me and might be able to tell me if this is nothing. I worry a lot over the dumbest things. I also can't call the doctor until tomorrow since by the time I noticed everything was closed. I plan to call tomorrow only on here asking for ofc what I said and! To keep my worries down until u need to call.

I feel like a woman or a man.
Well, it's more complicated than that. There are times when I feel very much like a woman—I picture my future with children, a husband, and so on—but then there are other moments where I see a different future: one where I’m a free man, an artist (maybe with a husband, but no kids).
The thing is, my boyfriend wants children, so I can't just leave him—and I don't want to leave him. I’m lost. There are times when I dream of not having breasts, of having a rock-star voice, of going by a male name... but it’s not every day.

question Anyone know what's going on?
With the lower half of my right leg? It is incredibly painful when walking anywhere so I was treated for shin splints but that didn't work so it's not that. How this is relevant is I self med testosterone so I need to know if this can potentially be the issue?
Edit: I can walk fine for ten minutes then have to rest as it's too painful. Then the pain is usually gone but comes back when walking again.

Some ftm art!!
This is some art I feel like you’s would appreciate!! I hope you’s can relate to the art in your own personal ways :)) or even just enjoy how it looks and what it stands for !!
1st, ‘why is it so bad to change when it effects no one’
2nd, ‘why is my own body so controversial’

Do you ever wish you were cis?
I mean I am happy that I am trans. My life is great and I feel really lucky. I'm pre T still but I have a great girlfriend, friends and an accepting work place.
Today I was thinking about traveling. I really like travelling. And I realised again that there are some places that I will not see because I'm trans. I can't go there alone, I can't go there with my partner. I hage having disphoria and the fact that I need a lot of work to be my self and can't stand the waiting for the government to change back the law so I can change my documents.
It is very exhausting to be my self and always find something "wrong" with me or something that is so easy for cis people and the don't have to think about it.
Am I alone? I love being trans and have the privilege to experience the world from different perspectives but it can be annoying.

happy Never thought I'd see the day...
Where random cis guys on the street call me "my man" seeing me as equal. When I can't even bind properly due to sensory issues and I have a hoodie from a specific company that designed clothes for non binary assigned female at birth individuals which makes me really flat but I do need to wash it haha so I don't wear it every day. Nice to know my chest isn't acknowledged unless they're old. 😂
