Hey there, I'm a young pre-transitioning trans-girl. Unsurprisingly, nearly every facet of my daily goings cause me major distress, but the greatest of these are singing. I love to sing, I always have. I sang much when I was little and I desire to get into a singing based career (I even digitally compose music in my spare time). However, I am a baritone with a relatively masculine singing voice (even though I have learnt how to speak feminine, passingly so). I know of contralto and I know of male trap singers (they must have found some way to sing so femininely, even if they are cisgender). What I don't know of, however, are any easily reachable resources. I'm only fourteen so to the surprise of no one, I am extremely short on resources. I have a large support group but do to family meddling or complacency, what could be achieved in a matter of days or weeks takes months. This is the primary reason I'm still presenting as only androgynous (more like some weird mix between obviously male and obviously female clothes). But I digress. I cannot afford singing lessons (at least for now, being lower middle class) and even if I could my parents wouldn't be interested.
If I could practise more this may not be as much as a problem, but I'm scarcely home alone so if I could I would like to rely also on helpful tips and such, maybe a video or two. But most of these are for speech, and singing is nowhere mentioned. For the most part what I get is "Use falsetto, but practise to make it sound natural, but you could hurt yourself doing it wrong, so get lesson." which just brings me back to right where I started. If anyone could give me more help than... that, I would be more than grateful.
