Both my parents know that I'm trans. I've just started extending my wardrobe and I definitely want to pass as well as possible. Obviously, makeup comes into this. Mom is ok with me being trans but it's a little akward between us. So...how exactly can one approach their mother and ask her for makeup expertise and a shopping trip? >.>
The reasons why I'd like my mom to help is simple. Most people in this tiny little town I live in are of a fairly narrow mind. Yes, I live in one of "that" kind of town so having her with me would be somewhat of a "security blanket" effect. I also suspect she knows that the packages I've gotten from Amazon and JC Penny are of female use because lets face it: My mother is VERY observant!
