Feels like a really weird question, but hey:
Anyone with experience/tips on wearing women's clothing without it being obvious?
I'm pretty sure that might make little sense, so to give some context:
I'm male; I present and dress male. I hope to change both of those things, in time, but I'm not there yet.
The other day I decided to try on some skinny jeans; something I normally shy away from.
And when I saw myself, I thought, actually yeah, I could live with this. And yet something made me look
more male - I'm going to say the low waistline, emphasising the length of the torso, lack of a waist.
I got to thinking, maybe I could actually introduce a handful of women's garments into my meagre wardrobe, without it really being obvious.
Maybe I could shift my form a little to the feminine, or at least less masculine.
I don't expect to actually look female, just to offset my body a bit, go a bit androgyne perhaps*.
I don't intend to pad a bra, or tuck. Sure, there'll be a nasty bulge that I personally dislike, but that's pretty much normal for tight clothing even for men, so it wouldn't be weird**.
That said, I'm concerned that things could be uncomfortably tight downstairs, or that tops would look weirdly slack where breasts aren't.
Firstly, does anyone have any thoughts on this? What can I get away with/what is practical***?
Not totally sure this is the right place for it, but it seemed the best shot.
Secondly, is this just really weird? I'd be interested if anyone, of any gender or inclination, has had similar thoughts. I can't decide whether this is outright strange, or blatantly common.
* Why? Partly to feel 'right'. Even if no-one else notices, I would notice. Even though anything I wore would be fairly androgyne, even though I'd have to steer clear of anything that made me aware of disparities in the crotch/chest departments, it'd still be more right. But also partly because, at some point, I intend to transition, and perhaps I can soften it a bit in this regard, make it a gentler change for me and those around me.
** Though there's probably a difference between garments cut for that bulge, and those that aren't. The presence of a bulge is one thing, but no-one wants to see detail.
*** If it makes a difference, I'm skinny as hell, not feminine/pretty at all (
), and so far have been very much middle-of-the-road jeans-and-t-shirt please-don't-notice-my-body.
