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!

Hi Lucille,
Well Lucille although I’m in my late 70’s I still always wear panties, preferably midi style for all day comfort. Coloured toe nail varnish and clear varnish for fingers.
I’ve been looking for unisex tops and jeans in a classic colour and style. I can’t find shoes to give a comfortable fit for my size 9 1/2.
I’ve never had a problem at the doctors and I shall be dressed the same when I go for my cancer treatment at the hospital.
Another informative article Lucille. xx
I’m sorry to hear that you are undergoing cancer treatments Joanna. Having gone through this with family, I know how are hard it is. Wishing you much health and strength. ❤️
I don’t have spam
I initially started out by throwing out all my men’s underwear and wearing women’s undergarments 24/7, then slowing purchasing women’s clothing. I had a Mary Kay rep come over to my house and teach me about makeup, and she loved my legs (I was wearing a short skirt) and said I should always wear skirts and dresses above the knee. I then started regularly going to hair removal places, nail salons and hair salons for women’s hair cuts. Now my Mary Kay rep, whom I have become friends with, wants me to begin working for Mary Kay. I also work as a volunteer for women’s groups and charitable organizations, and I feel so comfortable there, like I belong.
Wonderful to hear Brianna. Very cute dress, too!
You look very nice Brianna and well done . x
Oh, Brianna — you’ve got it made ! I envy you : good enticement for the rest of us ! And good for Mary Kay, too…!
Oh I neglected to mention my nails are kept a little long and always have a mauve polish. My hair is usually done in a pixie cut.
I have been dressing in this alternate stealth mode for years. Usually panties, womens leggings or jeans, a tank or cami, a womens sweater or thermal top and booties or flats. I’m over 80 and try to look good as well as feel good at home or if I go out.
I always have my toenails painted and wear an ankle chain, I also have my girl name tattooed on my upper thigh, Tina is always with me.
I always under-dress. At least panties, bra, camisole, pantyhose or thigh HI’s.. my toenails are red and I am 95%hair free … love the girly feeling.
I have changed all my wardrobe to female stealth clothing. I do have been able to sneak in some more real female clothes. But not too cute or sexy, not to put my self in danger. But I’m pushing the limits as much as I dare. Shoes with wedges, as it “feels better when walking.” I’ve managed beginning with nail polish after an ABBA show. I go to the hairdresser every other month to colour it. I even got me a handbag. Plain model of course. I can’t sadly have a cute one. When possible I do wear sexy underwear to work. Makes me feel good.
I have even been able to dance once when I was home alone, listening to music. And not feeling sick after two seconds. I know who I am.
I am Amanda.
