I don't wear sunglasses.  I do occasionally wear my mothers if I'm trying to read in the garden, but I don't care how those look because I don't wear them where anyone can see me.  It's worth pointing out that if you have a smaller head like me, make sure you get a pair that fit unless you're trying to look like you're hiding from the paparazzi.

QuoteWhat is more comfy for you,boxers or briefs?  And did you felt strange wearing them after using panties for the most part?.
I've never worn briefs, they remind me too much of female underwear in their cut, so I've never felt comfortable trying them, so I'm a boxers guy.  It did feel a bit strange to start with, having lose fabric instead of tight everywhere, and they rode up a lot, but now they either don't ride up or I don't notice it. I don't notice the extra space at the crotch either anymore, unless things are... damp.

QuoteWhat stuffs did you stopped doing when you started living "as a guy"?
I'm not "out" as male, but I'm not pretending to be female.  I can't remember stopping doing anything when I realised that I was trans, except maybe shaving body hair, but I was slack about that anyway.  There's nothing I can think of that I'll have to stop doing when I do come out as male, but I'm a masculine person anyway.

QuoteDo you wear mens deodorant,use shampoos and stuff*before T?*
Yup.  Even before I realised I was trans I used it because a) the only shower gel made for both body and hair was male orientated, b) I prefer the smell, and c) my mother uses this weird rock crystal thing half the time instead of deodorant, and by father actually uses deodorant.  It really is mostly just the smell that's different, even my cis girlfriend uses her dad and brothers' deodorant because she just likes the smell better.

QuoteWhat was the first thing you did when you came out and felt confident?. Getting a new wardrobe? Haircut?....Run and shout with pure happiness? Lol.
I never really had a "this is it" moment like that, it's all just been a gradual decline into presenting more male, and I was pretty much there when I realised I was trans anyway.  I got more confident in binding and packing in public, which I wouldn't do before because lots of people around here know me as female, but I realised that no one noticed or cared.

I don't wear sunglasses.  I did have a pair of big square ones that I liked though.

What is more comfy for you,boxers or briefs?  And did you felt strange wearing them after using panties for the most part?.

Female underwear to be honest.  I like the tight and secure feeling of them.  I have boxers but I don't like to wear them.  If I had to choose then breifs I suppose because of the tightness, though I've never worn those.  I do feel strange wearing panties but then again, I'm living as a female so....yeah.  For me, it's why waste money on underwear when I already have some?

What stuffs did you stopped doing when you started living "as a guy"?
I'm still living as a female so not applicable.

Do you wear mens deodorant,use shampoos and stuff*before T?*

I'm not on T but at times I rarely use men's deorderant.  Women's Dove works for me.  I don't use shampoo (male or female). 

What was the first thing you did when you came out and felt confident?. Getting a new wardrobe? Haircut?....Run and shout with pure happiness? Lol.

I haven't came out yet but the very first thing I did to mark the start of my personal coming out was buy a Mr. Limpy

Well thats all....for now xD i think i have no more questions :).  Thaaanks.

You're welcome.  Sorry I couldn't be more help to you.

Sunglasses: Can't help you, here-- I don't really wear sunglasses.

Boxers or Briefs: I mostly wear boxer briefs, but I have a mix of those and regular briefs because I have a habit of buying whatever costs less at the store. I don't like boxers much, because they give me horrible wedgies and get bunched up in my pant legs. Switching to guy undies didn't feel that weird to me-- mostly it was just a relief, because I've always thought girl undies were terribly uncomfortable both physically and emotionally.

Stuff I stopped doing as a guy: I didn't really change my activities or interests or anything. Just obvious gender presentation things like shaving and clothes and stuff. I have attempted to stop some of my more "feminine" mannerisms like standing with my hands on my hips, but I've never really cared enough about mannerisms to put a lot of effort into changing mine.

Deodorant and Shampoo: One of the very first things I did when I came out was to switch to men's deodorant and soap. Nowadays I sometimes use gender neutral shampoo, because men's shampoo kind of sucks, but I've been using men's deodorant and body soap since almost 2 years before I started T.

First Thing I Did: I did a lot of things at once when I came out, because once I figured out I was trans, I didn't want to waste any time. My brother was really awesome and gave me tons of his old clothes he had outgrown and let me sneakily borrow his spare soap and deodorant right off the bat. I also started binding right away, though oddly enough I have since stopped binding because of health issues. Haircut took a little longer, because I initially came out as genderqueer and spent a year or so with an ambiguous looking pixie cut before finally deciding I should get a proper male haircut.

Specsavers has a facility on their site where you can upload a pic of your face (in confidence) and virtually try on their glasses so that you can see what shape suits your face. Try here: http://www.specsavers.co.uk/glasses/mens-glasses

When I had my latest glasses made, I went into a local optician's and got one of their assistants to advise me. She help me pick out an excellent pair of frames that suits my face.

Boxers: they feel perfectly natural to me. I can't stand briefs because they look too much like women's knickers. The only strange thing for me was trying to use sanitary towels with my boxers, because they're not exactly designed with that purpose in mind. But I found that the towels without wings work just fine.

What stuffs did you stopped doing when you started living "as a guy"?

  • I stopped wearing women's clothing. Even my socks are male* socks.
  • I stopped worrying about my looks. I look fine; I don't need fancy haircuts, make-up, toiletries or clothing to look acceptable. I am acceptable.
  • I stopped shaving my armpits & legs. It took until I was a couple of months into my RLE before I could do that, but I've faced intense social pressure to shave my pits & legs for 30 years so it takes time to undo that conditioning. It took even longer to pluck (pardon the pun) up the courage to show my hairy legs in public.
  • On that subject, I also stopped plucking my eyebrows.
  • I stopped allowing people to decide my gender for me, based on my looks, chromosomes or genitalia. My gender is whatever I say it is, not what they want it to be.
  • I stopped smiling so much. Not because I'm unhappy (I'm actually more happy & comfortable in my own skin than I've been since early childhood) but because I don't give in to society's expectation that girls should smile. I'm not a girl; I won't smile for you unless I feel like it.
  • I stopped worrying so much about whether I was behaving correctly, or being too rude, or too insensitive, or whatever. Now that everybody knows I'm a guy, my behaviour is normal. I don't have to alter my behaviour to pretend to be female any more. Ah, the freedom!
* I have tiny feet, so they're boys' socks. Close enough!

Do you wear mens deodorant,use shampoos and stuff*before T?*

Yup! Pretty much as soon as I decided I would transition, I went out and bought all that kind of stuff. I've never used the women's variety since then. It's very self-affirming to know you smell very manly, particularly in the early stages of transition. I also use generic, gender-neutral shampoo and handwash if it happens to be lying around. As long as it isn't girly or pink, I'm quite happy to use it. (I often wash my hair with baby shampoo. Shh! don't tell anyone or I'll have to hand back my Man Card).

I bought a binder. Then as soon as I put it on, I stopped letting people misgender me. It was especially nice in a certain Seattle-based coffee shop chain - you know, the one that thinks everyone wants their name written on their drink. That's an awful thing to do to a trans* person who isn't yet fully out and who hasn't changed their name. I used to refuse to give my name because it made me so uncomfortable to have to say it. After I changed my name it was so, so nice to give the Barista my new, male name to write on my cups - and she now knows me by name and simply asks whether I want my 'usual'. Discarding that old, inappropriate name was one of the best gifts I've ever given myself.

You should really go to a store and look at sunglasses and see what suits your face best.

What is more comfy for you,boxers or briefs?  And did you felt strange wearing them after using panties for the most part?.

I like both, although briefs are better for packing.

What stuffs did you stopped doing when you started living "as a guy"?

Um....Shaving my legs? I wasn't very feminine as a "girl" either.

Do you wear mens deodorant,use shampoos and stuff*before T?*

Yes.

Bought a binder.

I started binding and cut off my hair (it was really long). I already dressed in male clothes for the most part, but I bought loose fit male jeans and started always wearing a polo or button down over a t-shirt to hide the binder.

When summer hit, I wore shorts and sandals and totally broadcasted my hairy legs for all to see.

I did all of this before coming out (to others, after coming out to myself), actually - and a couple of people I know were visibly bothered by my hairy legs. Oh well!

Do you wear mens deodorant,use shampoos and stuff*before T?*

I used gender neutral stuff like Irish Spring body wash, but now I Old Spice it up.

Boxers, save for TOM nonsense. It definitely took some getting used to. I started with boxer briefs so they did not seem so loose, but then graduated to regular boxers. Now anything else seems uncomfortable.

What type  of  sunglasses are  good to wear? *for an angular face*

No idea, I just picked a pair I liked and wore them. (They were the kind where you can see people but they can't see you.)

What is more comfy for you, boxers or briefs?  And did you felt strange wearing them after using panties for the most part?

Years ago I ran out of clean laundry, so I started wearing a relative's boxer briefs (a little weird, I know.) After a while I chucked the panties because I never really liked them anyway and I love boxer briefs. I bought my own. Just so we're clear.  :D

What stuffs did you stopped doing when you started living "as a guy"?

I didn't really...because I always did man stuff. Chucked out all the ladies underthings. For a while (when I was like, 13) I quit wearing shorts because I noticed all the men wore pants even on hot days. Then I grew up (18 or 19?) and started wearing nicer, grown up shorts again.

Do you wear mens deodorant,use shampoos and stuff*before T?*

Yes. Even when I was on the younger end of being a teenager. Men's deodorants, soaps, shampoos.

What was the first thing you did when you came out and felt confident?. Getting a new wardrobe? Haircut?....Run and shout with pure happiness?

I haven't really come out. I've always passed as a guy to the public, so I only needed to inform close family.

What type  of  sunglasses are  good to wear? *for an angular face*

I don't wear sunglasses - just glasses. My face is rather round, aside, so I can't say much with this.

What is more comfy for you, boxers or briefs?  And did you felt strange wearing them after using panties for the most part?

Boxers; actually, they felt a lot more natural than women's underwear, so the switch wasn't too hard to make!
My only gripe about them is when they bag up while I'm running...

What stuffs did you stopped doing when you started living "as a guy"?

I'm actually rather androgynous... Most stuff I didn't stop doing (I still favour some dresses and skirts), but I only wear sports bras now, if I have to.
Actually, my stereotypical gay-man vocabulary and mannerisms amped up a little bit, but I take that to be because I was just being me.

Do you wear mens deodorant,use shampoos and stuff*before T?*

My hair actually does better with minimal product, but if I'm using something I don't care what it is so long as it smells gender neutral (like, fresh water scented, because that's... A thing).
Men's deodorant I'm hesitant to get, but probably will once I run out of what I'm currently using. Women's always smells flowery.  :P

What was the first thing you did when you came out and felt confident?. Getting a new wardrobe? Haircut?....Run and shout with pure happiness?

I would be another who hasn't really come out yet... I'm not exactly quiet about it though, just have yet to start correcting people.
I already keep my hair cut short and dress in men's clothing; when I'm really out, I might start to grow my hair out again just because. I'm going to put away the femme part of my wardrobe away for a while, though; people will hopefully take me more seriously.

Sunglasses: I wear aviator type as they cover pretty well and I've always worn them. I live in NM where we have lots of sun. I think my face is kind of rectangular with the edges smoothed out.
Boxers or Briefs: Boxer briefs. I like the Fruit of the Loom non-elastic ones. I have heard they don't last well but I have had them a year with no sign of wear. Did I feel strange wearing them after panties? Not in the slightest. It feel natural. I have no complaints.
I got some male "tidy whities" early on, and hate them.
What I stopped doing? Well not too much of anything. I was pretty androgynous anyway. Some people say they stopped shaving. I kind of stopped this years ago.
Men's shampoo etc.: Gender neutral with no fragrance-- I really hate strong odors of any kind. Did I change brands? No change of brands, I use the same stuff. For shampoo is use Trader Joe's which has a very mild fragrance but very mild.
What first made you happier clothes or haircut-- definitely haircut. I think of my haircut as therapy. I think though I did them both about the same time, so I'm not sure which *initially* made me happiest. Another big thing for me, I had a fanny pack. I gave it up and found that I liked giving it up. I got a key fob and so on.
This is kind of cool early transition question and fun to answer.

What type  of  sunglases are  good to wear?
I don't have an angular face, and I wear glasses, so I never wear sunglasses.

What is more comfy for you,boxers or briefs?  And did you felt strange wearing them after using panties for the most part?.
Boxer briefs. And a little bit, but I like being able to feel a difference.

What stuffs did you stopped doing when you started living "as a guy"?
I'm not living as a guy yet.

Do you wear mens deodorant,use shampoos and stuff*before T?*
Yeah, all my toiletries are men's.

What type  of  sunglases are  good to wear? *for an angular face*

Sunglasses - just find something that fits and isn't too big.  When it comes to sunglasses they're a lot more forgiving than eye glasses.  Finding eye glasses took me forever, and I'm still not too happy with them.  With sunglasses there's less rules, just try on some in a store and choose ones you like.  If you have a small head like me, don't be scared to look at the older kid/teen section.  Females mostly have smaller heads than cis males, so it's better to have something fit than be obviously too big.  People never realise my sunglasses or caps are small/teen sized until they try them on themselves.  If it looks right in proportion to your face, then it doesn't draw attention to a smaller head and actually hides that!

What is more comfy for you,boxers or briefs?  And did you felt strange wearing them after using panties for the most part?

Tbh, I started wearing boxers quite early on (7 years old).  The only time I ever wear underpants (I hate the word panties, too girly lol) is during shark week because I can't stand the idea of tampons and as an active person, I needed stupid wings.  However, I actually wear boxers on top, so I could almost forget about the fact that I'm wearing underpants.  May seem stupid but that's how I deal with that hell.  I prefer the looser feel of boxers although I can understand it being difficult to deal with initially.  I alternate between loose boxers and boxer briefs.  I wear the latter when working out because looser boxers bunch up under my shorts or dobok (at Taekwon-do).

What stuffs did you stopped doing when you started living "as a guy"?

Nothing has really changed for me.  The only thing I stopped doing was shaving my legs.  I never shaved my legs to be womanly, I shaved them because I cycle everywhere and hate road rash with hairy legs (hurts 10 times more when treating the wound).  However, with it being summer and being concerned about passing now I'm presenting full time as male, I decided to cut my losses and stop shaving.  Once I have top surgery I'm going to probably start shaving again because I still cycle everywhere and I'm pretty darn hairy.  I'm also a little vain about my awesome, massive calf muscles (did I mention I cycle everywhere?? Lol) and they're not quite so impressive with a ton of hair.  Don't judge me, plenty of guys do it!  Look at a few fitness professionals and they shave everywhere to accentuate muscles.  :P

Do you wear mens deodorant,use shampoos and stuff*before T?*

I've always sweat a lot and now it's just a ridiculous amount.  For me the only thing that keeps me a little dryer and stop the associated smell is Mitchum smart solid for men.  Been using that every since I first found it!  And I've always used either men's shower gel or men's/gender neutral shampoo.  Couldn't stand the idea of smelling girly.

What was the first thing you did when you came out and felt confident?. Getting a new wardrobe? Haircut?....Run and shout with pure happiness? Lol.

Not much really.  My wardrobe was always 95% male anyway (the other 5% I never wore, or was bought for me and I didn't feel right trashing it - eventually gave it away to charity).  Coming out was more about telling people who I am than actually changing anything.  The only thing that changed was getting shorter hair and not caring what my parents thought any more.  I kept my hair a little longer so I could work it into a girlier look during Skypes (when straightened it was a more masculine look) because they never approved of my tomboy/masculine ways.  Once I started coming out and getting around to telling them, I just decided to cut my losses and get a shorter cut.

1)  Any sunglasses you like the look of.

2)  Boxers.  When I first started wearing them they didn't feel strange, they felt right.

3)  I stopped wearing women's clothes.   Since I only wore women's clothes once in a blue moon anyway, I doubt anybody noticed.

4)  Yes.  Women's deodorants are useless.

5)  I've pretty much never presented as female,  so I didn't have the kind of watershed moment you're describing.

1.sunglases: i dont wear sunglasses, basically bcos i wear glasses. plus i dont have much of fashion sense.

2.boxers or briefs: i dont actually know what u mean bcos mens underwear have different names in my country. anyways i dont wear panties except when i have periods, and i havent had periods for a few months now so my panties are almost rotting in my cupboard. when i do wear them, i feel so uneasy and out of place. i actually where some white shorts we have here as female underwear.

3.What u stopped: i dont live as a guy cos i havent come out yet, but even bfore knowing i was trans i had stopped wearing feminine clothes, specially wearing pink and doing the daughters chores and many other girly stuff.

3.mens deodorant etc: of course! im not on t but i always use mens stuff. they smell nice on me and makes me feel confident as a guy.

YBtheOutlaw

and for ur last question, i havent had that moment yet, but my wardrobe is already full of mens and gender neutral clothes. ( bfore i knew i was trans i used to buy gender neutral stuff bcos i felt comfortable that way. my parents and friends still think i wear so for the same reason. nowadays neutral clothes are hard to come by, and im more confident in myself, so i march straight into the mens section and buy what i want. it takes a lot of guts though)

my hair is already short and everybody thinks i keep it short bcos its too bushy.

well, when i do come out, if it ever happens in this millenium, im gonna dump these earrings they have pinned on me bcos its a custom here that every girl should wear earrings. then im gonna buy a binder and then if i find enough guts, i ll go propose to the girl i fancy!

I'm pre-T just so ya' know

What type  of  sunglases are  good to wear? *for an angular face*
I haven't even found them for myself yet XD No advice here sadly.

What is more comfy for you,boxers or briefs?  And did you felt strange wearing them after using panties for the most part?.
briefs for me, mostly because boxers are tight on my fatty thighs and I don't like how much boxer-briefs bunch up. With all that bunching up I may as well wear briefs. But I do wear short trunks a lot too. The briefs are really only different than panties by the confidence they give me honestly. And they're more comfortable, not so itchy and thin. The boxers though, they were too airy for a while after panties. Now I'm fine with 'em. (Only really sleep in them though.)

What stuffs did you stopped doing when you started living "as a guy"?
Not lots I stopped doing other than wearing girl clothes. I'm the same person, so I still do most of the same stuff, I just try to watch out for super feminine mannerisms. I have a habit of tucking long hairs behind my ears from when I had super long hair, so I'm trying to get rid of that because it feels too girly, but other than that not much.
Oh I did stop shaving. That's an important one.

Do you wear mens deodorant,use shampoos and stuff*before T?*
Yeah, been using them since I came out, and before in the case of deodorant.

What was the first thing you did when you came out and felt confident?. Getting a new wardrobe? Haircut?....Run and shout with pure happiness? Lol.
I got a haircut before I came out, which really boosted my confidence, and I've always had a masculine wardrobe, but changing it to true men's/boy's clothes was such a confidence booster too- knowing I could go out wearing GUY clothes instead of boyish female clothes.
I also asked my mom for a binder right after coming out which was such a bad idea XD She just told me I needed a nice fitting bra. So I ordered a binder myself :)

I wear sunglasses that I think look good. So that means you should just go try on a bunch, look in a mirror, and see what looks good.

Boxer briefs ... It's the best of both worlds imo. Sometimes I'll wear boxers to sleep in.

I use an all natural men's deodorant because it seems to be the only thing that works for me. Female type deodorants don't work for me. I use an all natural shampoo that's fragrance and chemical free and not branded for men or women.

Technically I've been wearing some male clothes since I was 3 (yes my mom bought me boys clothes because I would play out in the dirt and do other things boys normally do and girls clothes were usually not made as well). I had short hair for more than half my life. If I did have some big coming out thing nothing would change for me at all.

Do you wear mens deodorant,use shampoos and stuff*before T?*

What was the first thing you did when you came out and felt confident?. Getting a new wardrobe? Haircut?....Run and shout with pure happiness? Lol.

Well thats all....for now xD i think i have no more questions :).  Thaaanks.


1. i find that glasses with the opposite shape of your face suit it better. so angular face, round glasses, or round face angular glasses.

2. I recently switched to boy cut womens underwear cuz i live with a roomate in a dorm and im not out. seemed less "out" to me but they are very comfortable, i don't know why i didn't do it earlier.

3. not quite living as a guy,but i gave all my dresses and skirts to my mom. well she kinda took em since she figured i was a guy. lol fine by me. I try to carry myself a little differently to come across as masculine. i work out. over time i'll buy more guy clothes as i find the need for new clothes.

4. i use mens bodywash when i have it. my college gave out a freeby packs at a target and it came with some axe body wash and i use that. smells good :) i try to stay away from soaps that smell fruity or flowery. just generic irish spring or dial. i like using my dad's soap when he buys too many. :P

5. lol well im not out, only to my parents. and my sister and my lesbian cousin. but once i told them i felt really good,especially since they are so supportive.

What type  of  sunglases are  good to wear? *for an angular face*

Aviators make anyone look badass. Or... feel like one, which is more important.

What is more comfy for you,boxers or briefs?  And did you felt strange wearing them after using panties for the most part?.
I wear the comfy midway, trunks or boxer briefs. I wore them before, because they're comfy as hell, I like wearing pants under my pants, but I hate the loose feeling of boxers.

What stuffs did you stopped doing when you started living "as a guy"?
Putting on tinted moisturiser. Or moisturiser at all, actually. Mostly clothes related, or related to my feelings rather than behaviour. I stopped caring about how I'd look to other people and started considering myself. Not a feminine characteristic by far but certainly something I placed a lot of a value in when trying to make myself feel comfortable. I depended a lot on praise, I needed to be attractive/pretty. Now, I feel fine just being myself.

Do you wear mens deodorant,use shampoos and stuff*before T?*
I used mens deodorant beforehand, however I'm a huge fan of hair products and so I never really consider the higher-end stuff I use to be exclusively male or female. Hair is hair for the most part, an besides... I like a good old deep condition.

What was the first thing you did when you came out and felt confident?. Getting a new wardrobe? Haircut?....Run and shout with pure happiness? Lol.
told me friends to call me he/him etc, starting to put away all my other clothes/give them away. I'm more confident when i'm out with my friends and they're treating me like nothing has changed but the pronouns. It's great.
