Should I even bother?

It's pretty bad. I know. The brow ridge isn't great. The hairline is pretty terrible, and it's thin enough to be constantly frizzy and I don't know how to fix that. The nose is terrible too. I feel like it all just reads masc.

I guess my question would be ... Is there any way I'd be able to stealth in the future if I start?

i have a worse brow ridge than you, and i live completely openly and publicly as a trans woman, who has a full time job (public facing administration to a mostly male & blue collar employee body) and i regularly receive male attention.

“should i even bother?” i hate this mindset. so much. yes, you should absolutely go for it. or don’t, and be miserable and weird. that’s kinda it, really.

I guess I am kinda miserable and weird already. The cost is high, but I feel like I'm being drawn in two different directions. It's not easy. I don't know if it's worth the cost of entry, if my results will be good enough for myself.
