When you come right down to it, there are many ways to actually pass as a woman. Of course the first way is to attempt to try to know what feminine attributes you might have and go from there. Sadly the whole process entails more work than some are willing to spend time with. Others consider it a labor of love.

When I first began my serious gender journey to live as my authentic self, I needed to discover without a doubt what my authentic self was all about. All I really knew was that deep down inside I had never given up the idea I was a girl who was on her way to future womanhood…If I could figure out how do do it. Seeing as how I possessed very few feminine attributes, my femininization process involved quite a bit of trial and even more error. If it wasn’t for low cost thrift stores, I don’t know what I would have been able to do. At those stores, I was able to buy low cost women’s clothes to experiment with. The whole process took awhile but finally I began to understand the fashion basics I needed to over come my broad shoulders, no hips, and thick torso. I think now I had a one in five chance of finding a fashion accessory that made sense and helped me to work towards my goal of looking as good as I could. Through it all I kept thinking if a blouse, slacks or skirt was big enough to fit another woman, I could wear it also.
