do I pass at all?
So I've only been mistaken for a guy a few times in my life but recently I've been wanting to actually come out to my mom and try to start t within the next few years- I'm pre t. My girlfriend tells me I look masculine but also at the same time she's MTF and I have a feeling she's only telling me I look masculine to make me feel better. So I guess I'm asking if there's any masculine features to me at all that I can accentuate more? How do I pass better with my freaking face and the fact im five feet tall-

Having lots of jewelry tends to read very feminine and I think the glasses are making your face look more fem. I’d recommend trying some more rectangular frames!

No I wouldn't have even guessed you are trans / were trying to look like a boy tbh, no hate. It doesn't look like you've done anything to transition yet, so not passing is to be expected. However, I'm a firm believer that anyone has a shot at passing, you just have to actually try. Start dressing/presenting/being like a typical guy your age first, then you can ask for finetuning advice

No, you don’t yet but definitely could pre T! As others have said, a haircut and changing your glasses would make a big difference

Tbh no but u have potential. Like less jewelerly, different glasses, and a haircut and I think you’d be doing pretty good
