What piece of clothing makes you feel your correct gender?


Luna Gonzalez

Recommended Posts

Whenever I feel kind of dysphoric I try to make what transness is all about; feeling euphoric. I believe that my trans identity reflects more in what makes me feel beautiful and comfortable, rather than what makes me feel bad about myself. Transness has really helped me to get to know me better and to love myself because I know what I'm worth and being trans is being beautiful, different and authentic. 

My comfort clothes for whenever I want to feel euphoric are long socks, they always make me feel beautiful and kinda hot. Which clothes make you feel euphoric???

I like what you said here. When I wear men's shoes I feel more authentic. I like wingtips, oxfords, and dress boots. When I wear them I feel I look dope and handsome in an unconventional and unique way. It's fun how adornments can make you feel ador(n)able. ?

That's a good idea to keep in mind!

 

For me, it's a nice dress or nightgown. ?  (As long as I avoid the mirror!)

 

But other things can help, too. Cute socks (I have a pastel rainbow pair that I love), pretty dangly earrings, mascara, bright nail polish, a sparkly headband, anything strappy, or any feminine top that doesn't have a male-style super-tight neckline or male-style "short" sleeves that reach halfway to my elbow.

whatever i wear makes me feel ok. i really don't think much about it other than wear clean clothes that are comfortable and look good on me. actually i'm pretty much a very casual person. and it's not clothes that make me feel good, it's what i'm actively doing every day that's my passion. thank you. :)

Heels and a dress, hun. This girl loves looking her best wherever she goes. Only my stylist knows my true hair color! ?

I'd love to see those socks. My favorites are a pair of socks with moons and another pair with shih thus. I evidently love moons because my name means moon in spanish and I have a beautiful shih tzu.

I feel euphoric when I wear the understuff such as bras, underwear, etc.

I love Calvin Klein underwear specifically, I don't know it makes me feel cute

I totally get you girl, I also feel cute whenever I'm comfy or in cute baggy clothes. I love hoodies and xxl soft cotton t shirts

Omg love heels but I don't wear them much because I am pretty tall, so I look wayyyy bigger. But yes a cute dress and a pair of heels are a must have.

I'm 6'-2" (188 cm) tall, I stand out regardless. Heels don't bother me. I have a cis female cousin that's 6'-3" (191 cm) tall. We both love heels.

For me it is the feel of wearing a slip.As I mostly wear skirts and blouses or dresses I always a slip, it feels just wonderful on my old lady skin and makes me feel I am totally put together as a proper lady'. They are hard to find in stores now but thankfully Vanity Fair still makes them and they can be found on line.

These are them: https://bestkawaii.com/collections/socks/products/rainbow-socks

 

Shipping took ages, but that was mid-pandemic last year, during the worst of the shipping delays, so your mileage may vary. They're pretty small (and my feet are gigantic) but the material is stretchy enough that even I can still wear them anyway (even if the heel does tend to slip below where it should be). They're still my favorite pair though, just because of how cute the colors are. (I always did love pastels :))

I don't know if you're a gamer or not, but just in case you are, my introduction to JRPGs was "Lunar: The Silver Star", back on Sega CD/Mega CD (and the later Playstation remake). Because of that series, and one of the lead characters on it, I always loved the name "Luna".

Luna, I loved that you started this thread, because I have always adored fashion and use it to express my inner woman.  Just the right outfit can have me feeling like a million bucks and oh, so confident.  Many of you will probably think me a bit old fashion, but pantyhose or stockings really help me feel my feminine gender.  A side benefit is that hose act as makeup for my legs.  A close second are high-heels.  There is just something about a sexy pair of heels that make me feel girly.  I'm tall, 6 feet 2 inches, but I have never let that interfere with my desire for wearing them.

Mine has to be skirts or dresses. something known to be feminine. When I put on a dress I feel so much more girly.

I love long "boho" skirts especially in the summer when a light cotton skirt often feels cooler than the air.  Who cares if my body may show when i'm backlit.

 

Hugs,

I love dresses! I always feel so much happier when I am wearing one, when you find one that offers some natural curves and compliments my height and weight it lets me see myself in the mirror in a way that other clothes just can't.   

That being said I have always experienced euphoria with the feel of tights and leggings, I just confused it with something else for 20+ years.?

The go to clothing for me right now is Fitness Clothing, because the leggings are not gender specific. As Fall cools down to Winter, then may clothing choices are changing with the seasons. I'm looking at foot wear, and some type of cross body bag to make up for the lack of pockets.

 

Have a great weekend everyone,

I saw the socks, they are super cute!!! And about JRPGs, I'm a fan. The ones I liked the most were earthbound, mother 3 and chrono trigger. I've never played Lunar tho, I might give it a try in the future.

For me I love wearing dresses or skirts, followed by skinny jeans or leggings. At work since I have not fully come out except to HR. Our dree code allows jeans and Polo's so I wear women's jeans and polo top and so far noting has been said and co workers talk to me as if nothing is different, so I assume they haven't noticed or don't care.

Boho skirts and sandals do the the trick for me. Its not the most glamorous or sexy look, but for around the house or running quick errands, its so comfy and self-affirming! ?

I want to feel cute but comfy, so it's either nightshirts/nightgowns lounging around the house, or an off the shoulder top or crop top really makes me feel girly.

suits. even tho they're quite formal, blazers and trousers make me feel like a man. 

but also the baggy t-shirt/big jacket/straight jeans combo. they make me feel like any other boy my age, it makes me feel very happy. :)

      Had a weird dream last night.
    • Mirrabooka
      Morning, y'all. Evening here; we had the regulation three mugs full today. Now it's time to drink something else.     No big plans here either, eldest daughter and granddaughter will be arriving on Saturday, and we will have our granddaughter to ourselves for a week after that. We still have plans though. Tuesday we'll go to the swim center, Wednesday we'll take a road trip to visit my mom, Thursday we'll get some mulch delivered to top up the gardens.   I still make other small plans on a daily basis though. The things I do plan nowadays, which is a bit new for me, is that after pinching a nerve and ending up in a bit of pain and getting some treatment from the physio, I am more motivated than ever to exercise more regularly. Tuesday for example, I went for a short (15 minute) early morning walk, went to the pool for some hydrotherapy, and mowed the lawns. Yesterday I did my exercise reps and spent some time on the exercise bike. Today, I went for a 45-minute walk, tomorrow I will do my reps again and go for a long bike ride. As long as I do at least one thing every day, right? The pleasing thing is that I'm losing weight! I blew out to above 95kg early in the year and I'm just under 91kg now. Yay me!

      What one piece of advice would you give to beginning transitioners or considering transition?

      Positive side of the mixed bag.

      Boredom is an emotional state that comes when a person has nothing to do, and is not interested in anything. To stop boredom, most people do something to occupy or amuse themselves. The first known use of the word boredom is in the novel Bleak House by Charles Dickens, written in 1852, but the saying to be a bore had been used to mean "to be tiresome or dull" since 1768. When referring to the mind, boredom is a bad state in which the person feels a deep lack of interest in what is going on around them, and where it is hard to focus.

      So, yesterday's epiphany was that girl jeans fit me much nicer than boy jeans. Well, duh! So this girl is switching over to wearing girl jeans pretty much full time. I'll keep my others for work jeans. We went out to dinner last evening and I was in androgynous mode...wearing a pair of Bandolino Amy straight leg denim pants. Score!

      Good morning, everyone!! The coffee upload has started for me but just in the early stages so I'm barely coherent at this point.   You've been missed @Willow - I hope all is going well with your wife and at work.   @awkward-yet-sweet We love to make beans with rice - one of our favorite meals.   No big plans for me today. Small projects around our place and probably some reading. We're going to have some rain off and on, and the temps are still too low for a lot of outdoor work.   Be safe and enjoy this beautiful day we've been given!!
