So I only just realised I pass 100% as a girl!

People have not known I am trans, no known I am pre-HRT and not picked up on any masculine traits. I got greeted like a female by guys all the time in public, identified as a girl, never identified as a guy ever.
I have narrow shoulders like a gir so most tops just fit me nicely and I have fat in my legs so things like shorts don't have a masculine effect on me.
Onto my face... my eyes are extremely wide like a woman with a normal level of Estrogen, my lips are very plumpy like a womans. I have colour in my skin which is also a feminine traits.
Onto my voice... My voice is soft toned and has only a slight resonance. That's is one of my androgynous features. I used to see myself as not passing but that's because I didn't quite know how to do my hair or dress properly, I was just learning and I automatically came across as a dyke. I've also had people say I look like a dyke in several of my boy photos.
These are pictures of me now and I don't even try to pass nor do I do anything to compliment any masculine feature because I can't seem to find one. I do however adore wearing makeup daily because makeup makes my eyes pop more and adds more defination to my already feminine cheeks and a nice shine on my lips. Yes I like to have a dolly effect on my lips, I think it looks very great!

Thinner lips, that's just the way I was smiling.

I really want to start hormones asap to see how more feminine my features could get! Oh and mind the fringe! Bad hair job haha.
People have told me that if they didn't know I was a pre-HRT trans woman they would've thought I was a cis woman.

Thanks for sharing your progress, it sounds like you're become more and more confident about your identity recently - both private and public, which is really positive.
Are you in conversations about HRT at the moment?
I am not even at a GIC yet. My GP keeps lying about refering me. She keeps saying she's referred me but according to other people she hasn't. It's pissing me off cause people like my parents say things like "What if she's just forgetting? She has a LOT of patients to deal with too, you know?". If she'd forgotten she wouldn't have told me she REFERRED me, she would've said something like "Oh sorry I forgot to refer you." or... "I haven't refered you yet.". I am trying to get a referral to Newcastle instead of Leeds which is the closest one to me because Newcastle has a 6 month waiting list where as Leeds has a much longer one.
I have been putting in complaints on the NHS. Fed up of being messed about.
