  I am relatively new to owning any feminine clothing whatsoever. I have six pairs of panties to call my own but that is it, other than that it's strictly male clothing(blechh!)  For those of you who haven't read any of my other posts, I am in high school and I've tried to come out to my parents but they don't believe me and say that it's just hormones and that I'm not sure of what I'm feeling so it's difficult for me to do much without being made fun of or losing friends or getting grounded by my parents(which has happened because I shaved my legs). Most of the time I desperately feel like I should have been born a girl. Does anybody know of ways that I can feel more feminine and feminine clothes that I could possibly upgrade my male waredrobe with?

Something that girls your age wear. 
Discord, I'm howlin' at the moon
And sleepin' in the middle of a summer afternoon
Discord, whatever did we do
To make you take our world away?

Discord, are we your prey alone,
Or are we just a stepping stone for taking back the throne?
Discord, we won't take it anymore
So take your tyranny away!

The skin fitting type might not go over big with your parents

you can probably get away with some pretty tight fitting  jeans. both male and female jeans can look the same. Unless you go super stretch

you could always go to your Local JCpennys or Dillards and ask for help with that so your parents wont know. they can help you with a more abdro look

Ok thanks! I would get really nervous doing that though. Just sayin. I would love to have girls jeans though and have tried to convince my mom to buy me some but it didn't work :( I do drive though so there are more options to me now

Become a hipster :) skinny jeans are part of the uniform
  •  

kaylagirl0806

Haha ;) good idea(; Can they still be female jeans?

There's next to no difference. Skinny jeans are skinny jeans.

I'm not a hipster :P But I know a few. And we all watch Portlandia.

I still wear skinny jeans alot. There's some good punk brands out there that do some pretty stylish skinnies with awesome patterns or or stripes etc. Most mainstream clothing companies sell skinny jeans nowdays though, with varying prices.

Tights/pantyhose are lovely (and practical in winter) to wear under clothes.
Feminine cut-blazers and jackets with nipped-in or tailored waists (tailoring and even nipped-in can look unisex, so its acceptable most of the time to wear tailored tops).
Buttoned-up shirts with rounded collars, (as they look a little like pretty blouses whilst still being shirts). Once again, this can be a hipster or preppy look.
Scarves - simply buy girls scarves.
Gloves - my gloves are black suede with cute bows on them :D You can't see the bows till you look very closely, so they are ideal for "covert crossdressing".

There are no more barriers to cross... But even after admitting this, there is no catharsis... I gain no deeper knowledge of myself. No new knowledge can be extracted from my telling. This confession has meant nothing.

When you find yourself hopelessly stuck between the floors of gender - you make yourself at home in the lift.

Thank you so much for the advice stella! I really needed that. Everyone says tights and pantyhose are amazing but I've never tried them. Would you recommend fitted t shirts? Some others recommended that.
Kisses,

Also, are there any women's shirts that I could feel pride in that are feminine that I wouldn't easily be called out in?

...Wear a skirt. Say that men in the middle east wear skirts. Use photographic evidence.

You might get grounded for that (You actually got grounded for shaving your legs? Wot). But I think it'd be worth it, skirts are awesome.

Maybe when my parents weren't home ;) Yes I did get grounded for shaving my legs before. >:( I still do it though(; they have no idea....I can't stand body hair ick!

Well, I'm in my 40s, but I wear women's Levi's 505 with plain pockets almost exclusively when I'm not at work (where a man's suit is the norm and pretty much unavoidable - trans-hostile workplace). Even when I have to present as male in public I never get negative comments about my women's jeans. The men's and women's Levi's are similar enough that most people don't notice the difference, but feeling the slightly different fit and knowing they didn't come from the men's department at least makes me feel more feminine. Fancy pockets make it a little more likely that you'll be noticed.

Add some pantyhose or panties and socks and you've just dressed out half your body without being obvious. :)  I also gravitate to unisex T-shirts in pastel colors, especially if I can find something with a V-neck. I'm seeing a lot of men wearing pink or purple dress shirts lately, so you can justify your color choices with that in mind if the pattern is fairly gender-neutral.

I'd much rather dress in a more obviously feminine manner, but at least this way I can remind myself that I am at least wearing a few things that are "correct" for the gender I feel.
Call me Dana. Call me Cait. Call me Kat. Just don't call me late for dinner.

V-Neck shirts, especially if they dip pretty low. Also a lot of 'emo'-type stuff, because they're basically girls clothes marketed to boys. :laugh: Really any clothes that might make you look 'gay', because they'll essentially be effeminate guy clothes. However, going for that kind of look could just give you different problems.. I suppose you could at least wear more 'girly' colours, like pinks, purples, and pastels. Maybe wear more accessories? Jewelry can often be unisex, like earrings for example. Eyeliner if you can pull it off, especially if you go for some emo, goth, or rocker styles. This might be a stretch, but a 'travel bag' like this could act as a purse: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007XAI4M6/ref=s9_hps_bw_g198_ir15?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=merchandised-search-7&pf_rd_r=0K9WFN5DZD17SYHX4XKD&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=1615661222&pf_rd_i=2602603011

However, be warned, as benign as some of this stuff might seem, others might think differently and could make their own assumptions. I did most of this stuff at one point for similar reasons (living with my parents while they didn't know). Eventually, I think my mom got suspicious and went through my things one day while I was out. Found out from my sister that my mom found a purse or makeup bag in my closet, but she never mentioned it. Or this other time I bought a tight purple hoodie and my mom said I looked 'gay' wearing it. ::) Finally I got daring enough, I went out with my parents to a restaurant wearing a red v-neck t-shirt, I had long hair, wore my earrings, and carried my bag/purse. And I got a 'ma'am' from the waiter! I was both flattered and mortified. :laugh: So just be careful with all of this. Things might be fine individually, but don't go overboard if you don't want to get caught..
