In general yes, though most of your photos are from the same angle which makes it hard to actually tell.
The last photo is clocky imo (probably from the way the shadows lay on your face?) - but still androgynous boy at worst (more ambiguous than obviously male, if that makes sense).
The other photos lean more fem for me - if I try to see a boy I can sorta make my brain do that, but what I see by default is a girl (maybe partially because the t-shirt primes me to see that, but your skin is also soft, there's no beard shadow, etc.).
(Take this all with a grain of salt, not everyone will be able to see you like I can - I also have the brainworms. Just like for you, gender dysphoria warps my perception of myself and others.)
some other, also cool i doesnt have adam apple also as full body - i definitly pass ~162 cm and overall body is ok also i never grew facial hair(even no body hair at all) (how hard it was been to get hrt at 15 and convert transphobic mom to normal)
I had my partner (who is cis-sexual) look at these photos, and she thought these two photos looked like a boy, but maybe trans-masculine was her guess. Then I showed her your first photos and she saw a girl. She didn't realize the two sets of photos were of the same person (i.e. she didn't think you were the same person in these two later photos as the person in the first photos in your OP) - just to give you a sense of how subtle gender cues like hair style, style of dress, etc. can radically influence the way you are gendered.
that makes me a less dysphoric
why somedays no dysphoria some days have dysphoria
but is not estrogen levels because at high levels i feel same lol
ah no, stop i know: i was bumped with antipsychotics 2 years ago because one psych think im schizo(hopefully others think im ok) then got psychosis and motor disorders on them and other psych prescribed latuda so i still cant found time to tape it (im at min dose), think this drug mess up my dopamine now
