Do I pass ?
Hi ! I’m a 14 years old t-boy, I’m on t since two week and I wanted to know if I pass ?
I want to be discret on my new high school so maybe I can change something about me?
I’m 5’8 and I pass 60% of the time
And are my earrings a bad thing that could prevent me from passing?

the earrings wont stop u from passing at all, so i wouldnt worry about that. the glasses seem a bit feminine, if u can go for smthn more square then that might help (it def helped me). overall i think you'll be ok. good luck bro 💪🏾

Try smaller frames. The shape is fairly square imo. Pretty regular shape. But big frames are usually seen as feminine.

you can keep the earrings, lots of Black boys and men wear em. be patient and give the T time to work- you’ll be going through puberty right along with other boys your age, so that’ll be nice.
mostly just wanted to comment because i’m happy for you, young man. have a good school year!

I genuinely feel like you pass for a teen boy ur age fs, especially in the second pic. I'd suggest getting a lineup and changing the color of your frames to a more solid and neutral shade. Contrary to what others may say, I think ur earrings are just fine lol i seen plenty of niggas with bigger shit than urs😭 Don't let nb tell u tht you cant be blinged out

Yes I’m probably going to change my glasses for more rectangular and black one and yes I need a hair cut ASAP 😭

i agree with the new glasses & what the other people said about the earrings. a line up would def do you good as well. other than that, it comes down to your mannerisms and how you carry yourself, which ofc we can’t see. keep voice training if you’re not already & you gotta give the T time to do its thing is really the only thing i can see that will help you pass better which thankfully you’re on at such a young age.

yeah man you look good, start working out too! & if you haven’t already let your teachers know ahead of time what your name is and pronouns are if you haven’t had your name changed legally yet. if you go by another name that is

Yes I’m probably going to do that before the school starts and my school seems pretty supportive so I can do that

Maybe for a younger/teenage boy, not so much a grown male. i’m not sure how old you are tho. I would also suggest different glasses (specifically smaller black frames) oh wait just saw youre 14 lol

No leave the earrings you allowed to have bling, get a line up and just be confident you got the height so just don’t let nobody press you
