I see now that she looks different when I see her picture enlarged on your nation screen. Rookie mistake on my part.
Because sometimes even national leaders just want to hang out

That's pretty much exactly how I feel, too. If I were to undergo surgery, I want to look convincing and I'm convinced that I won't come close.

Before your time, the national star (the alien space baby paper), broke the Gary hart story, ruined his candidacy for the president. They still report on elvis sitings, but that doesn't mean they are wrong on other stuff.Research by the media magazine Brill's Content in 1998 cast doubt on the accuracy of the majority of the "exclusives" claimed by the Drudge Report. Of the 51 stories claimed as exclusives from January to September 1998, the magazine found that 31 (61%) were actually exclusive stories. Of those, 32% were untrue, 36% were true and the remaining 32% were of debatable accuracy.[21]
It doesn't really seem reliable...

Or mine where I realize that I struggle with my identity as I waited too long trying to sort myself and can only pass in one role, male. As a result, I may have to compromise identity and desires knowing that my shoulders forbid passing as female or androgynous even if the rest of my body could pass in the long term. Regardless, I know I can live life with support of my family, but the harshest critic is myself. I don't know if I'll ever get approval from myself.

Before the shitstorm - Consent when referring to sex with animals or children is a legal term. When it's two adults, consent is yes or no. With animals, children etc, consent is removed from the equation. An animal can by all appearances want sex with a human. It is illegal to act on its willingness or lack thereof.

Correct in the legal sense of the term "consent".

In time I do think transitioning will get better and easier. Perhaps it's not given the attention it deserves, but modern-medicine advances all the time.

My face other than my nose is good. The problem comes with the shoulders that only allow passing as male and my voice. The movements are fairly feminine at least based on what other have told me, but my voice and shoulders ruin the show.

It's my jaw that clearly distinguishes me as having an inherently male structure. I can sometimes see past it, but those moments are fleeting. I'm trying to grow my hair out, at least. I want to try and make it beautiful, eventually. I still probably have an entire year to go before that's possible, I want it long.

He's more accurate than he's outright false, but the problem is that about a 1/3 of the time it's outright false.

You could try a wig. Like Nicky Minaj does before every single concert.
