My favorite gifts from my wife have been those I wouldn't have necessarily considered asking for myself (she does most of my shopping). Try looking for "missing pieces" or things that your BF has the fewest of. As an example while I have a decent size wardrobe to choose from, I have few options in terms of jewelry.

Good luck in your quest :)

Often times, its not a "thing" that we appreciate most from our SOs...its being able to do things together while en femme (either at home or out and about). Things like a girls night in, getting a mani/pedi together, maybe taking a short trip together.

You could always get her a gift certificate at VS or Kohl's or anyplace she likes to shop.
Then you could offer to go with her on the shopping trip. Also maybe a "Macy's"

Gifts for your BF's female side are a wonderful way to express your acceptance of her. I treasure the first things that Mimi gave my female side.

There are plenty of ideas depending upon your relationship with his female side. Jewelery, nightgowns, clothes, gift certificates for aesthetic services, etc.

The most important gift is your acceptance. To paraphrase the movie, "A million girls would kill for that."

I second TammySmiles' suggestion - the best gifts are the ones that show the giver was really thinking about giftee. My favorite gifts have been either things I wouldn't have thought to buy for myself or something the gifter made themself. A gift for my "twin" (my mom said to me recently that it was like having twins; in a good way. lol) would be awesome! Accessories, jewelry, perfume, anything that might be "missing" from your BF's femme stuff. Of course your love and support go a long way; but an extra little gift, which most of us never get, would be icing on the cake. :)

I think it's wonderful that you would get your BF some femme things for Christmas. It really sends a message of acceptance.

I look back at the femme things my GF (now wife) gave me for our first Christmas as the first certain sign of acceptance. They were silly items that no longer match my style, but I cherish them anyway.

But I disagree with those who suggest gift cards. Real items and experiences send a much stronger message.

Fist,you are really special to consider this. I think the ideal gift is a normal "outfit." Something feminine but typical so that if going out one might blend. And by "outfit" I mean shoes, accessories, skirt, top, etc. I think guys have a real challenge in this area.

First it is nice of you to think about wishes of your bf. For me it is very nice of my wife to buy me something of lingeries which I like that she is wearing. So ask him what he will like of you to dress of lingeries than buy him everything he/she told you or one part of it. Pls tell us how all has passed? Good luck :)

I can't think of a better gift that you can give ''her'' then the loving acceptance you are showing in this thread! ''She'' has more then most of us will ever have!

The thought alone is a great gift of itself. I think anything from you would be lovely. I think if I were to get lingerie from my SO it would be the ultimate gesture of exceptance for me.

Oh that'e easy!! UNDIES!!!!! The oh so soft of saten or silk, maybe even some shape wear, I think it is very personal to give such a gift and some how....somehow, makes me feel like the giver really wants to me next to me. It that to too terribly romantic?

After some thought I agree with this. I'm considering the silver rose pendant necklace that Mimi gave me shortly after we had "The Talk." It said a lot that couldn't be said with words and gives me warm feelings every time I wear it or even see it hanging in my jewelery cabinet.

One of the best gifts I've ever gotten from my wife, was a beautiful strand of Perls, but then Jewery is always nice, and one size fits all.

I just wanted to say that I agree completely with Kim and others who have chimed in similarly. No material items could (or should) compare to time spent together having fun with the person you love. All of these are great suggestions.

Any gift that shows acceptance and "grily" has got to be a gift that shows love and will be be accepted as such.He is a lucky girl.
