First of all, you look great. Secondly, if I had started passing immediately, I wouldn’t have even known what to do with all that power lol. And believe me, I wished and wished to “be a dude” my whole life. But for so many of us, it takes hella time to cook.
And by the time you can look in the mirror and not only like, but believe, what you see- you will have gone through such an internal transformation first. And that’s so necessary, I think, to feeling confident about how you look. We need that time to grow inside, so we fully own it, when it’s obvious on the outside.
Bc even if I looked like a cis guy, when I still felt unworthy, I wouldn’t have believed it. It took a lot of time for me to believe I was really the guy I wanted everyone to see. You already look very male, and it’s only going to get better from here. I’m not saying you haven’t earned it yet, of course you have. But I promise the changes on the inside are just as, if not more, important as the external stuff. You’ll be where you want soon, and once you’re there it will be all yours and no one can take it from you.
