I'm a full time woman these days, but during my first year learning curve I went out with all sorts of mixed presentations. I had that gender euphoria so badly that my male presentation immediately immediately included women's jeans, jewelry, fingernail polish, and feminine walk and mannerisms.

Somehow looking like an effeminate guy didn't bother me, but there was always a strong line, I felt, between that and attempting to present as female.

The line for me is basically wig and breast forms. I know it doesn't work like that for everybody, but me, my age, my male pattern baldness, those are the two aids I need to feel secure that I am presenting as female.
