If you can't find Shave Secret locally, you can order it online, just google it. Used to buy it that way until I discovered Walmart carries it, go figure. About the only thing worth going in there for which is why I never knew they had it until this past year, had been buying it online for years.

Shave secret is so worth the bother of finding. It will make all the diferance in the world for a good shave.

It's so the social clues, the expressions, the upper body movements aren't a part of the conversation. They have to concentrate on what you are saying to be able to converse.

yep yep yep

Sometimes I even close my eyes.

Also I wasn't able to shave for a few days and did much better than normal. Either I'm getting better or it's easier if it's a bit longer.

Actually, I'm the opposite - I do nearly all my intake through body language - which is why they always give me the kids who speak no English.

I also hated shaving as a teen when I stopped shaving I was complemented on my beard in less then a week now I still have my beard despite not identifying as male,  I do get laughed at and recieve strange comments from strangers when I go out being me - wearing female clothes & make-up.  I spent a long time denying my queerness for the reasons you mentioned amoung other things but Life is a lot better for me most people treat me better then when I was trying (and failing) to be "normal" and trying to fit in.
I'd recomand doing little things that others probably wont notice eg. clear nail polish or female clothes that look male or even just female underwear I sent a long time wearing unisex clothes from the female side of the shop before I felt safe to push the boundaries and explore was to express my true self.
