Hey everyone, I’m new to all of this and I’m still trying to figure things out. Maybe a year or so ago my egg cracked and I’ve been trying to figure out what to do about it. I’ve got a therapist in talking to and she’s great. My wife has been struggling a bit with a lot of the stuff I’m going through but is trying to be supportive. I also want to take her comfort into account with anything I do.

My therapist talked about maybe making a list of clothes that might lean more to either extreme end of the gender spectrum and maybe talking to my wife about how comfortable she is with me trying those things, but I don’t really even know where to start on that list. I feel like I have no idea what kinda stuff to wear. Do any of you have any suggestions?

    i assume you’d like to have a ‘toned down’ start? you are nervous about skirts, because thats to explicitly femme? i at least felt that way for years.

    in that case i’d suggest you find yourself a cute cardigan, you can wear ir over your regular clothes and it’s not to much of a ‘committement’. at worst it will be seen as playfull or rather just someone wanting to be comfy.

    you could then go buy a womens shirt and some pants you like. wirh these items it is the details (cut, fabric etc.) that differentiate tgem from the mens section. so that’s still not too big of a step, but i think you’ll see qnd feel it. :)
