So I'm an FTM boy. My hair is cut relatively short, but with longer bangs. (Not a girly haircut, though.) I pack my pants with a few socks, I wear a binder, I wear baggy polos and flannels and baggy jeans, but every time I go to the store they call me "ma'am" or "miss" and it makes me really dysphoric. I think it might be my voice, because it's kind of high. Can anybody give me some tips on passing? Thanks!

I'm no expert on the subject, but here's something since no one has responded to you. :)
If I were you, I would research, research, and research some more. Watch videos, ask questions on FtM specific forums, find out how to make your voice more masculine through the power of the internet. You can learn virtually anything with the internet, make use of it. Good luck!

I agree with the poster above. Transitioning takes time and lots of knowledge. It isn't just about dressing in the clothes of the gender you go by now.
Are you taking testosterone? Have you talked to a gender identity therapist? That is also something you should do research on.
