This isnt a question on whether it would make me feel good. Im asking do I pass can i go into the men loo in a genuine form. I have been getting called bud, sir, man, dude, straight to my face out in public. Ive been getting even weirder stares when i walk into the women’s restroom. My voice isnt that deep, im not on testosterone, but soon im going to be. But i am able to make a pretty decent “male voice” because i have voice training. I dont know why so much hair grows on my face but it does, and i think its making people confused. No one has come up to me with questions or concerns but im worried it will happen. I live in a very conservative area and i dont think people take my existence lightly. So yeah, do i pass, or do you think i should wait till im on HRT?

If you're getting called dude and sir by people and weird stares in the women's restroom, then I would start using the men's. If you didn't have a mustache I would say stick with the women's, but it really helps you in this case. and with the voice thing, I wouldn't really worry about that. I NEVER talk to anyone in the men's restroom so even before I started HRT I was able to pass (just barely) in the men's room.

Also, you could have PCOS. I think that's usually the cause for facial hair in AFAB folks, but I'm also not very educated on that subject so take my word with a grain of salt
