I don't think I can do better than looking like a femboy. (self.mtf)

I've been 10months on HRT so maybe it's still too early to tell but I genuinely believe I won't pass unless I get FFS, my face was quite masculine before HRT and I think it's not possible to change some stuff without surgical intervention. I have a prominent brow ridge, my jaw is square and my chin is cleft. No matter how hard I try with makeup, voice, eyebrows and hair, I still get sir'd once people see my face. Sorrowfully without much hesitation. It makes me feel terribly illegitimate to call myself a woman when I look like this.

My dysphoria has lowered a lot since starting though and I actually feel alive for once in my life. But maybe it would be better identifying as a femboy until I can get FFS...

I agree but if I go to the women's bathroom I'd still immediately get kicked out :(

That won't change for years until I get my maimed face fixed...

In my region, there's a huge variety of women using the women's restroom including me with just a pink hoodie and leggings and no makeup. I've also seen women with facial hair,non-binary and GNC people, and ftm men using the women's bathroom. If you use the women's bathrooms near me and show any amount of femininity you'll be fine.
