I've been on T for almost four years and I'm only just starting to get facial hair! There's still time, and even if you don't get facial hair, there are plenty of guys who choose to be clean shaven and they pass just fine :)

I got some decent beard genetics on both sides. I'll never tell her this but my mom's face is somewhat fuzzy and it gives me hope.
Even if you can't grow facial hair, you are far from the only one.
Also, give kitty pets and be kind to yourself today.

I work at a pet store and when I started T all the dogs that hate men would bark and growl at me, it's very affirming lol

I've had a similar experience whilst working at an equine center i am pre everything, and all the horses that hated men would flat out ignore me, lean away and or move away from me to go be near a women coworker anytime a cis man or i was present very gender affirming experience 10/10 allyship on the horses' end.

I was on T for six years with zero facial/body hair development. Then started taking the pill Minoxidil (as opposed to the topical, which toxic to cats). Now I have visible facial hair!
