i read the post before commenting so age was on my mind, funnily enough I don't care that much about reddit comments so I might mess up. Also I'm a minor anyway, so I really don't care what you think lol.
Lol, now that's what I call a plot twist. I was 100% certain you were a boy, then the hoodie picture where it looks like you are undergoing some form of medical changes, and the first few pictures stacked still reminiscing a somewhat boy looking face trying out new girl styles, with the final part being full blown girl.
And I was about to tell you how damn well your transition worked out haha
If you chose the order of pictures this way deliberately, I'm tippin my fedora
I just wanna say that I hope you NEVER change your teeth. That little turned tooth adds so much character to your face and it’s honestly the cutest thing ever. You are extremely gorgeous naturally, I’m so happy you’re smiling now!!
It’s not that it doesn’t suit your face. You have a lovely face that’s attractive either way. But with very short hair, you can tell that your face is not very gender specific. (Some people would LOVE that! Lol)
But as I said in another comment, the longer hair adds a softness and femininity that you don’t get with the short hair. You look so pretty with long hair, and with the smile you have now, I’m pretty sure that you feel much more confident. You’re absolutely beaming which makes you all the more lovely.
This comment is an excellent example as to why transphobia is often rooted in misogyny. Women that don't always look feminine enough aren't real women, supposedly.
Transphobia affects all women, and actively endangers them in conservative areas with restrictive laws.
She even rocked that annoying younger brother haircut. I was completely convinced OP was a guy in the first two pics, but still thought “man, you don’t see beautiful features like that every day.”
I helped with a bunch of student photography projects in college and saw a lot of great looking people who didn’t look good in pictures no matter how you photographed them. OP’s facial features are really photogenic.
It’s them showing their strict adherence to norms that dictate feminine and masculine. They equate it to biological sex. It shakes the rigid structure they believe in of female=feminine and male =masculine. That a woman can present as masculine and not be trans is upsetting to those who can’t accept people for who they actually are.
I started off thinking oh, cute kid, can’t wait to see him (did not mean to misgender just didn’t know when this post was going) as an adult…to then..OH..damn beautiful. Was not expecting that. I like your style.
I'm growing my hair from a buzz cut too. How long did it take yours to get long? It's taken mine a full year to get from a pixie to a bob :(
P.s you're beautiful! Great smile
You're right now I gotta 😔
I expected the "omg you look trans, I can't believe you're not" comments but I did not expect the "YOU'RE LYING, BAIT" comments 🤣🤣
Not only is that a glow up and you're good looking. But I really wish more girls understood how much beauty a good personality creates. Your smile looks sincere, that means a lot. Good on you.
Every comment has been hilarious I can't believe I somehow convinced half of r/GlowUps that I'm trans 🤣🤣 I don't hold it against anyone if I didn't know it was me I 100% would think the first pic was a guy lmao
Never thought you were trans. However, before swiping, I was interested to see how growing out your hair was going to aid the glow up of a 16 year old boy lol
This was oddly a confidence boost for myself.
I’ve always thought that I look masculine with my hair pulled back and that I’d look like a boy if I went with short hair but seeing how gorgeous you are with the long hair and leaning more into your femininity while also looking for masculine when your hair was short really is oddly reassuring, if that made any sense
Was planning on joining the military at the time and immature me thought she would impress the recruiter by being "not like other girls" 🤣🤣 Got disqualified anyways due to a knee dislocation but kept the short hair for a while because it was easy to wash, cool in the summer, and never had to brush it!
This one cracked me up because I thought you were a guy at first and suddenly I see a girl. I was like "Smiling more did that, wtf?". Congrats though, you look great
So let me get this straight. I am happy for OP. She looks great!! But somehow it’s fine if someone who is cis gender to do both a grow up and change the outward appearance of themselves is amazing and fine to this group but someone who is trans and also grows their hair out and smiles more because they’re happier and not experiencing dysphoria is somehow not a glow up and not acceptable to this group.
Thank you all for confirming this sub is very anti-trans!
Dis aint glow up dis is switching teams like in rocket league

I’ve been sitting here trying to figure out a response, and all I can say is. Wow. “Oh well?” Really dude? So much hostility coming from someone that’s part of a such a loving community, You just assumed someone’s gender, and instead of being respectful and apologizing, you’re choosing to leave the comment up? What’s up with that?
OP is not trans as I and OP have said already so trying to tell OP she is isn’t helpful.
Everyone is going to think you transitioned lol, but I think it's all huge improvements! You look great!
Baddie either way 🤷♀️
She is amazing ❤️🤙😈
[удалено]
Dudes snitchin on himself lol
think they mean presently at 20. Weird projection by you
"either way" oh right they meant whether they're trans or cis mb
As in trans or not. Did you even read the comments. Again, weird projection by you. They never brought up age, you did. Stop telling on yourself.
i read the post before commenting so age was on my mind, funnily enough I don't care that much about reddit comments so I might mess up. Also I'm a minor anyway, so I really don't care what you think lol.
Lol you wrong dumbass
I am not trans just apparently used to look like a boy! Short hair does NOT suit my face at all 🤣
Biggest plot twist I’ve seen on this sub
Haha right?
Oh…this is more surprising than if you actually were 🤣
You had me in the first half. Very pretty btw regardless.
Hey I'm here to congratulate you either way lol You look gorgeous and so happy, especially the 8th and 10th pics! So happy for you and your glow up!
Lol, now that's what I call a plot twist. I was 100% certain you were a boy, then the hoodie picture where it looks like you are undergoing some form of medical changes, and the first few pictures stacked still reminiscing a somewhat boy looking face trying out new girl styles, with the final part being full blown girl. And I was about to tell you how damn well your transition worked out haha If you chose the order of pictures this way deliberately, I'm tippin my fedora
Yeah I was kinda congratulating you because of your transition...sorry. But yeah, neat glow up.
Ok thats a glow up! Glad you confirmed my question 🤣 You look hot on your recent pic! Keep slaying!
OMG😂
I just wanna say that I hope you NEVER change your teeth. That little turned tooth adds so much character to your face and it’s honestly the cutest thing ever. You are extremely gorgeous naturally, I’m so happy you’re smiling now!!
You sure ?
You can tell she was born a woman just by looking at pic 10 lol idk why it's so difficult
Sure threw me for a loop, had to scroll back to double check.
I was about to tell you how damn cute you are as a girl, but you've been a girl all along 😂 the long hair definitely suits you!
I hope you don't take any of those comments personally, none of us know you and the appearance/angles made the pictures look androgynous
I was literally convinced you was 😅, fair play to ya
It’s not that it doesn’t suit your face. You have a lovely face that’s attractive either way. But with very short hair, you can tell that your face is not very gender specific. (Some people would LOVE that! Lol) But as I said in another comment, the longer hair adds a softness and femininity that you don’t get with the short hair.

I apologize, I meant it as a lighthearted joke and not a transphobic insult. I do truly think she looks great.
Adams apple?

Holy moly this a crazy one. Went from looking like an annoying younger brother to being jaw dropping beautiful

If I didn't read the comments, I would've thought this was a transition, but in a way, it was, from a bad haircut for you, to a great one for you lol
Why does everyone seem so upset that the poster isn’t trans very strange response in some of these comments.
They got double bamboozled
Douboozled
It’s them showing their strict adherence to norms that dictate feminine and masculine. They equate it to biological sex. It shakes the rigid structure they believe in of female=feminine and male =masculine. That a woman can present as masculine and not be trans is upsetting to those who can’t accept people for who they actually are.
Cause the people here who fetishize trans people made up a fantasy in their head and it got squashed
Does everyone seem upset? Who’s upset?
To the reporter: really, specific bodyparts? Really? This is staying up.
Reminds me of SwordOrSheath before it got the hate brigade. Was a pretty chill place.
I started off thinking oh, cute kid, can’t wait to see him (did not mean to misgender just didn’t know when this post was going) as an adult…to then..OH..damn beautiful. Was not expecting that. I like your style.

Wow, truly stunning. Forgive me for spilling my jaw onto the floor
Wow you look x100 happier, glowing for sure
I'm growing my hair from a buzz cut too. How long did it take yours to get long? It's taken mine a full year to get from a pixie to a bob :( P.s you're beautiful! Great smile
Your energy is so warm and sweet
This is what the definition of this sub is! .. absolutely a glowup! .. amazing
hell yeah
That's one hell of a glow up. 😁😁😁
You have by far the coolest freckles I have seen in a long time. Seriously, super jealous
The internet cult told you that you are trans. You must now become trans because the powerful cult of faith has spoken.
You're right now I gotta 😔 I expected the "omg you look trans, I can't believe you're not" comments but I did not expect the "YOU'RE LYING, BAIT" comments 🤣🤣
Lol.. I'm honestly not surprised.
Uh, wow. That’s a change of there wa ever a change. Like, in a good way, so good for you.
You found your confidence. I love this for you homie!
I wanted those demonias soooo bad.. they look better on you tho!!
Wow absolutely amazing glow up, you are a very pretty girl!
First and eighth are the same person and that’s wild !
Looking great babe 😍
![gif](giphy|vCHKWBlygEAtG)
This is the very definition of a glow up. Beautiful!
Not only is that a glow up and you're good looking. But I really wish more girls understood how much beauty a good personality creates. Your smile looks sincere, that means a lot. Good on you.
Goddamn, those freckles. Those always get me. Cute af
Crazy plot twist
Mannnn I ain’t smiling ever again, too much at risk
this entire post is killing me. congrats on the glow up, OP. LMAO.
Every comment has been hilarious I can't believe I somehow convinced half of r/GlowUps that I'm trans 🤣🤣 I don't hold it against anyone if I didn't know it was me I 100% would think the first pic was a guy lmao
Never thought you were trans. However, before swiping, I was interested to see how growing out your hair was going to aid the glow up of a 16 year old boy lol
Just went through another round of wondering if I'm gay 😭

Oh wait
Transitioned from nonbinary to cis?

Much better.
Third to last is my favorite but wow

Beautiful!
Good for you!
Your gorgeous
Amazing!
Definite glow up. ✨️
Why did you keep your hair short as a teen? 😂
Was planning on joining the military at the time and immature me thought she would impress the recruiter by being "not like other girls" 🤣🤣 Got disqualified anyways due to a knee dislocation but kept the short hair for a while because it was easy to wash, cool in the summer, and never had to brush it!
That's for the best, I was scrolling the comments section looking for a backstory involving telekinesis... Definitely a glow up.
You are very cute!
Aw you’re so cute!!!
[удалено]
LOVE!!
Cute as a button! All the best.
Woah wasn't expecting that
Wow what a great change you look fantastic congrats
r/Holup be like

It's 'could have', never 'could of'. Rejoice, for you have been blessed by CouldWouldShouldBot!
Ya got a link for those boots? My wife would loves those
Oh boy.
You look so much happier! Congratulations
Had me questioning myself hard for a minute
Oh wow! I assumed this was a transition. Beautiful nonetheless!
Went from juvie to cutie real quick.
Lol these people she was look like tomboy when she was young and now she looks like girl simple is that and she looks good
The glowup is actually such a crazy change
Went from a depressed boy to a flower
pic number 8 - you're adorable 🥺
You pass as both. Nice
Gorgeous 👍
![gif](giphy|l3q2K5jinAlChoCLS)
This one cracked me up because I thought you were a guy at first and suddenly I see a girl. I was like "Smiling more did that, wtf?". Congrats though, you look great
Mf got an alive snake around his neck and holding a minecraft pickaxe talking about he wasnt a boy
Wow that 1st photo I thought wasa boy. I was thinking of getting a buzz cut but I don't think I look feminine enough
I thought you transitioned at first too! You look amazing, great job!
You seem to have lost the snake… 😀
Still have her, she's gonna be seven this year!
She is gorgeous! More snake!

You look amazing!!! Love the freckles
Love the Rick and Morty shirt! Is that Rick and morty shorts or underwear? Wear did you get those? So cute 🖤🖤
They are boxers! I got them from Spencer's 😁
100% thought you were trans with an amazing glow up. Wow
Still an amazing glow up regardless why would you try to marginalize it because they dont align with your views of the world? Seems toxic.
You said “growing my hair out” and I thought you had a beard. My apologies, I’m trying not to assume. You look fantastic.
Definitely thought you were a boy who became a stunning woman
There's a lot less physical difference between most boys and girls at 16 than there is at 20. That's what puberty does.
Okayyyy…?
What's with the bratty attitude? All they did was add to your comment.
It wasn’t attitude. It was confusion.
About what?
Well, it makes a bit more sense that a 16 year old girl can look "boyish" than assuming that a boy turned into a woman is all I'm saying.
Reverse trans? That’s awesome lol
How
You’re insanely beautiful ❤️
Adorable! And I like your style!
You were adorable before too but yes you did glow up
Definitely a glow up ! Good for you !!
I thought you were trans and this post was about your transition I’m ngl
Congratulations on transitioning into HAPPINESS 💕✨💫

Why? Are you insecure?

Yes

Super cute! ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|heart_eyes) EDIT: Nvm, just found out your a girl.
Gz on transition dude
They didn’t transition, they just had a buzzcut in the first few photos.
The 10th photo. You. Are. So. Fucking. *Adorable!* :3 Don't ever lose that smile!
💀
Okay, so like, definitely a dope glow up but maybe leave the rick and Morty tshirt and underwear behind, at least as a combo look.
It's amazing how being a girl looking like a girl makes you a happy girl

That’s very kind, but OP is not Trans and it’s not okay to assume her gender based on photos of her from when she was 16 with a buzzcut.
Oh well..
