So I look very ugly and honestly don't look feminine at all and just look like a guy with girls' clothes draped over him. I have been on HRT for a year and 6 months, I went from 4 to 6mg in April and I still look pretty terrible, I am not sure what I can do differently and I feel like maybe I am overweight which ruined my chances at ever passing and I should have lost it pre hrt. all of my selfies including this one are taken at angles to make me look better, this is one of the few photos I have at a normal angle (this was taken before my college graduation) as you can see I pretty much just look like a dude. I am honestly not even sure if FFS could help me or if a doctor would even consider it worth while.

FOR THE DUMBASS PEPES from the troll instances in the comments I will not listening to your comments, thank you.

I hope you're not doing anything about the way you look to please anyone else. I'm an old CIS straight guy, but it seems to me that the point of transitioning is to be who you are. Obviously that includes your gender, but isn't it broader than that? Isn't it also about being unapologetically you, with everything that includes?

I'm sorry that your physical appearance is causing you grief; it's clear from the other replies here that other people don't see you the same way you see yourself. But you know what? It doesn't matter. Everyone deserves the opportunity to be loved. That doesn't change whether you look like a model or not - most of us don't.

I hope you get to the point where you can just love yourself and who you are, and not worry so much whether it's acceptable to anyone else. I'm sure transition must be hard; hang in there.
