I'm 3 - 4 years into it, which makes me feel like I should definitely have all of this sorted out by now. Just going off the picture you posted on this page, I'd say you pass. But even if you feel you don't, was presenting what pushed you into making it seem less crushing? I'm in a pretty shit environment, so how I can present is pretty limited. The little I've been able to do just makes me feel out of place when doing it, like I just look odd, but maybe that's just me not being used to it?
I'd say so, yeah, although my general wardrobe is very "on my own terms". There are still articles of men's clothing I wear to this day, like it's pretty normal for me to wear men's hoodies over dresses, or men's t-shirts torn to be more flattering and denim shorts.
This photo is ancient, but when you see my full body it's pretty apparent with how tall I am, etc that there are elements to my physique that make it rather impossible to fully pass.
It was uncomfy as heck for awhile but the more I exposed myself to other LGBT, found other people like myself who actually found me attractive (!!!), that helped a lot. I wouldn't have gotten to that point if I didn't present in public. There are definitely other ways to come to peace with it I think, and I realize how difficult it probably is if you're in a bad location, but that was my personal experience I guess. Maybe there are support groups you can join to get more outside experience?
Edit: yeah also finding a good hairdresser is essential and youtube makeup channels are essentiallll
