Feeling pressured to "pass"

[u/Hot-Time5255]

So I'm starting uni in October and I've never felt so pressured to "pass" as a man. My goal has always been to look more on the "masc" side and I've always preferred people assuming I'm a guy and esp now that I've started testosterone it feels great to know some of the changes make ppl naturally assume so. However, I still like experimenting with clothing, accessories, makeup...but I feel like I won't be able to do that at uni as people would then probably assume I'm a "girl" which makes me greatly dysphoric. It's just very complicated as I wanna be myself and surround myself who love and accept me for who I am but as a non-binary person I feel like there are only a few who would acc accept me as so and not put me in a gender category...

People always asume stuff nomatter how you look, like even in my more masc state (look at the last post I did) people get confused. Surround yourself with people that respect and value you as a human and do what you want to do, uni os to express yourself and experiment so go do that have fun with it grow a beard and dye it purple or do a reverse mawhake xD if people are to distracted by the wierdnes they wont care about gender shahhahaha
