If you’re like many of my transgender or crossdressing readers, you might not be able to present yourself as a woman each day.
That doesn’t mean you have to lose your female side when it’s time to put on the pants!
In this post, I share 5 ways to stay in touch with your femininity – even in male mode.
1. Wear Women’s Underwear
Let’s start with the most obvious tip, shall we? Wearing women’s underwear underneath your male clothing is the easiest way to connect with your feminine self on a daily basis.
Aside from that, women’s panties tend to be more comfortable than men’s boxers or briefs. Plus, they come in loads of cute and sexy styles to add some secret pizazz to your outfit.
2. Try Stealth Crossdressing
Wearing lingerie under your clothes is a classic, but why stop there? Sneaking a piece of women’s clothing into your daily outfit is a great way to feel girly.
A lot of women’s clothing can pass for unisex, so try wearing women’s:
- Basic tees
- Button-down shirts
- Jeans and pants
Don’t forget about accessories! You could also play with wearing women’s boots or using a tote bag as a laptop bag or briefcase.
3. Apply Incognito Makeup
There are lots of ways to incorporate makeup into your daily look, even when presenting as a male. Here are 4 must-have makeup items:
- Concealer or foundation – Apply a thin layer to cover under eye circles or blemishes.
- Setting powder – Apply to shiny spots on your face, like the nose or forehead.
- Clear mascara – Use it to make your eyelashes look subtly longer and fuller.
- Uncolored lipstick – Instead of boring Chapstick, care for your lips with a clear lipstick.
4. Use the Power of Scent
Scents have a powerful effect on your brain chemistry and mood, so this is a great way to connect with your feminine side.
Wear women’s perfume instead of cologne. Musky fragrances are the most unisex, so you can wear them without anybody knowing your secret. (Check out my article on perfume to learn more about choosing the right scent.)
Another option is to burn a scented candle with a feminine fragrance in your home or office.
5. Keep Reminders of Your Female Self
Another tip is to surround yourself with reminders of the woman within.
One way to do this is through photos. Keep photos of your femme self on your phone, in your wallet, or even framed and hung up so you can see them often.
You could also carry around items personalized with your feminine name, such as a necklace, keychain, or coffee mug.
6. Try Feminizing Hypnosis
Hypnosis is a powerful way to increase confidence, reprogram habits and behaviors, and improve the way you express yourself as a woman.
Best of all, it’s the ultimate mental escape – allowing you to connect with you female self regardless of your current situation.

How do YOU stay connected?
In an ideal world, you’d be free to present yourself as a woman whenever and wherever you wanted. Until then, I hope this gives you ideas for expressing your female side anytime you want!

I always wear panties under my drab male wear.
I don’t and what is the biological test to prove this or any psychiatric condition in dsm book?
Hi Lucille and all the wonderful, beautiful Ladies out there.
Well like most of you, I wear my panties 24/7, toe nails stay painted all the time, (can’t afford mani/pedies). I had one once and it was heavenly. I wear bras, slips pantyhose every chance I get.
I’ve been plucking the hair down there, and love the feeling I get.
I also stay tucked about 99.9% of the time, I wear Tena overnight pads continually, I love the feeling of the bulk and just having it there.
In the morning I am dressed completely, (not highly passable). I put on my makeup and perfume and go to work. When I get there, I have to relinquish control to him. He changes back to drab, for the day. I can’t dress as I’d like in the evenings, his wife doesn’t like me, even though she has never met me (she married a man, not some guy in a skirt flouncing around) Her words.
Any way Lucille thank you for everything.
Much love ❤

I always keep my toenails painted under my socks and occasionally tights under my trousers! I am that girl!
Picture to follow
I always wear panties and usually wear a cami top under my male shirt. Sadly the company I work for would it be conducive to me wearing more feminine attire.
I do, if I am in the office alone all day (happens every so often) wear some women’s jeans and a top. I usually go to the coffee shop in them and never had an issue.
Yes lucille that is part my stragie I have keychain with feminine symbol and by wearing some of my womanly clothes to during those times always wearing my panties I have used perfumes during certain time’s as reminder nothing to heavy or loud smelling once n awhile spray a mist in my vehicle keep it woman like an keep it smelling clean
My way of having the feeling of being feminine 24 hours a day is
I’ve got a credit card and a photo ID in my feminine name. I’ve got a email address so that I can receive emails as
When I get a email on my phone from Soma or another women’s wear site I love to look at all the feminine clothing and lingerie.
It’s like a wish list for me
Sometimes I can’t resist the temptation to order something like a cute little pair of panties and then wait until they arrive
It always gets my juices flowing when I can put on a new crisp pair of panties that I’ve received in the mail
Love the feeling of being a girl and enjoying everything that a girl can do
I’m replying to my own post.
One of the things that I do to to make me feel like a lady is one day a month I go for a pedicure and a manicure getting my toes polished with red polish and my fingers polished with clear and on occasion I get them done with a french tip
It always makes me feel so feminine when I’m done and really enjoy the conversations with the other customers while I’m in the salon as we talk about the different types of pedicures and manicures that we are having done
