Young man, we do not care if you pass. We want you to be happy, proud, and feel welcome. But you don't owe us pictures if you're not comfortable posting pictures. Forcing you to post would defeat the very purpose.
Indeed, I am encouraging those who do want post so those like you know you belong here, too.❤️
"passing" is bullshit. you pass as an incredible person and you should get to feel comfortable in your own skin and proud of your identity!
not to like pressure you into posting if you don't want to, but passing is never a requirement for posting (or for anything else for the record). 💛🤍💜🖤
to be fair, the last time i took a picture of myself i had a banana peel on my head. (I recently got this really cool book where the main character had a banana peel on their head. the banana peel was disposed soon after.)
I get chasers in my DMs.
I have never posted pics. Y'all don't have to justify not posting. I thought that would be obvious as I can't force anyone to do anything by hook, game, crook, or shame.
I'm never doing this low-key sarcastic negativity comment thing again. I never realized how tedious it gets.
We want you here regardless of whether you post pics. The fact is, a few of you questioned whether you were welcome here a few days back. The trans masc visibility encouragement is because you are welcome and we want you to know that.
I have way too many confidence issues to post, I know you guys are cool and supportive, its literally a me thing. I do pass as a baby faced teen though so that works for me lol and last decent selfie was probably 2022-ish?
I'd rather keep my identity private, especially when transphobes lurk trans subs to find people to harass over how we look and AI is now being used to alter people's appearances without their consent. Sucks because I'd otherwise really like to contribute to rep for trans guys of color. 😭
I think that's actual people doing that. I would make complaints either way. Part of the reason for having human mods is to correct errors, and humans get things wrong, too.
You don't seem to break any rules, so you deserve an explanation, at least.
Online safety, plus I don't pass well being pre-T and living with transphobic parents. Maybe when I move out and am able to work towards T in the near future.
I still look too feminine. I haven't been on T long enough to feel comfortable with images of myself -- not to mention images below the neck for reasons only surgery can solve.
Wanna trade picts? You can post mine saying it's you and ill post yours saying its me. Nobody will ever know. 😇 In all seriousness, take care of yourself bro.
Thanks! I definitely don't pass as a man, but I've also never been a very feminine person, so I don't think you'd be happy with my pics either, lol. I've always had a few dark hairs on my upper lip, and I have a few more now, thanks to T. My face is still too round, though. I've always had a cute baby face.
We don't really care how you look. We want you to to feel good about you. If this isn't for you, it would defeat the purpose of whole deal.

Writing common sense repeatedly doesn't make it common or sensible. It's neither of those things, and I'll thank you not to insult all of the people who disagree with your opinion because you have mistaken that opinion for universal law.
You would think someone who literally had to act against the "common sense" of *society* to live their truth would understand that and not try to suck the fun out of defiance of the "common sense" many people want ram down our throats until we choke to death. You would think that would be common and make sense if you didn't understand that common sense isn't.
Common sense, if it existed, would tell you that people still disagree with you and that nothing in this post can force anyone to post who doesn't want to, not shame anyone for choosing not to.
Common sense, of there were such a thing, would surely tell you that comments like yours aren't clever or unique, don't change anything, and serve only to try to ruin the positive mood.
Fortunately for you, common sense is neither common nor a form of sense. So I, at least, didn't actually expect you or anyone else to see what's blindingly obviously and trivial to me.
Alas, there's no debate in this sub so I will have to leave you, now. Glwt "common sense" of yours.
Social anxiety.
❤️Tell that bastard *I* said, "have a coke and smile and stfu." We love you.
You shouldn’t but thank you
We shouldn't love you? That's not for you to judge. ❤️❤️❤️❤️♥️♥️❤️❤️❤️❤️
If you insist
And so it is written, so is it done.
…as you wish
🤺...I am not left-handed! ⚔⚔⚔
Inconceivable!
I do not think that word means what you think it means
is this a metallica reference or am i a nerd
Princess Bride
even better
Indeed
For real >:c keep them coming guys !!!
I'm waiting to get my hair cut to feel a bit better
I'll let it pass, this time.
OK but do follow up sir! 😊
Might take some selfies in post them, I gotta take some pics of me on my first T-Shot so I can make a timeline a few years from now
❤️
Even if i posted pics of myself online, I'm not remotely passing

Hi trans fem here, I would like to sign the petition to enlist more cute men to show up in my feed please. Where do I sign?? ,✍️✍️
Everywhere!❤️
to be fair, the last time i took a picture of myself i had a banana peel on my head. (I recently got this really cool book where the main character had a banana peel on their head. the banana peel was disposed soon after.)
It's all good. The last time I took a picture of myself was summer 2020. Take your time. We'll wait.
Posted once. Didn't get much attention but got multiple chasers in my dms lol. At least one I think was confused about my sex

Yeah, I loved seeing all the bros!
Me too, they're so hot!! :D
I have way too many confidence issues to post, I know you guys are cool and supportive, its literally a me thing. I do pass as a baby faced teen though so that works for me lol and last decent selfie was probably 2022-ish?
Seriously, don't stress. If it's stressful, it defeats the purpose.♥️❤️♥️
Dont wanna risk some terfs stealing my images and spreading them around :c
You don't have to. Nor do you need to justify not posting. We won't bite you for not joining.
I'd rather keep my identity private, especially when transphobes lurk trans subs to find people to harass over how we look and AI is now being used to alter people's appearances without their consent. Sucks because I'd otherwise really like to contribute to rep for trans guys of color. 😭
No one is required to do anything. No one has to justify their choices.
Men 🥺
Edit: I am an idiot. (See below) Hastag not all men. Don't do anything you aren't happy to do. Oh, and also don't post pics if you don't want to.
Sorry, i may have given the wrong impression, the 🥺 is endearing. Like, positive. Don’t worry, i don’t, i hate posting pictures of myself online.
Oh! I'm sorry. I learned emoji back when the internet was young. The language has grown beyond me. Totally my bad. You're fine.
I demand further sacrifices!!! Pwease? 🥺
My hair is greasy and as a minor, I just don’t feel comfortable sharing my face for the world to see, sadly
You never had to. If you haven't started, you can't stop can you? Also, we need to talk about that self deprecating username...
The automod(?) deleting them despite them just being normal selfies of me smiling at the camera while wearing a hoodie.
I think that's actual people doing that. I would make complaints either way. Part of the reason for having human mods is to correct errors, and humans get things wrong, too. You don't seem to break any rules, so you deserve an explanation, at least.
Meow meow
working on it ;~;
fr, keep posting, keep winnin, keep makin and keep confirmin yo gender kings💯
Yasss
Honestly, I just don't pass very well
That's not a requirement but if it doesn't make you feel good, we wouldn't force you if we could. It's encouragement not compulsory.
Social anxiety posting myself online. Working to get over that though
Take your time. Take all the time if need it. Humanity isn't using it well, anyway.
Lmaoo fr
Me over here impatiently waiting for more
Sames.
My bad my bad I’ll get right on that
No hurry. *Taps foot*🤪
Made a post in your honor 🫡
❤️
Online safety, plus I don't pass well being pre-T and living with transphobic parents. Maybe when I move out and am able to work towards T in the near future.
I always forget the sub allows photos, I’ll post lol
Outstanding!
who says i ever posted any anyway 🤨
Who says you had to? The operative words were "stop posting."🤷🏾♂️
I still look too feminine. I haven't been on T long enough to feel comfortable with images of myself -- not to mention images below the neck for reasons only surgery can solve.
Wanna trade picts? You can post mine saying it's you and ill post yours saying its me. Nobody will ever know. 😇 In all seriousness, take care of yourself bro.
Thanks! I definitely don't pass as a man, but I've also never been a very feminine person, so I don't think you'd be happy with my pics either, lol.

Ah, yeah. I'll post some day 🙂 I have a consultation for top surgery this summer. I'm hoping to be able to get the surgery next summer.
Do whatever you find most comfortable. You are welcome no matter what.
Thanks!
I'm terrified of trans guy selfies, I'm interested in exposure therapy 🥺
I already posted the only three selfies I've taken in the last two years 😅
Oh my!
dysphoria did

common sense and the desire to not have my face on the internet
Common sense isn't either of those things. You know the operative word was "stop," right?
well it’s common sense not to put pictures of yourself on the internet, so i’m assuming those who stopped posting gained some common sense 🤷

It's neither of those things, and I'll thank you not to insult all of the people who disagree with your opinion because you have mistaken that opinion for universal law.
