I hope my enby peeps can help me out here.
I am very interested in exploring a more feminine expression, but my starting point is masc-af physically, so anything too feminine too quick is going to have a very hard contrast and I’m definitely more of an “I don’t want to stick out much” kind of person.
Any ideas that may be more androgynous, but not attention grabbing that I can try out? I am not good at picking outfits anyway, so I need all the help I can get.
Like beard and full body hair, so obviously lower cut stuff could be very dysmophic atm.
Maybe something that just feelsmore feminine but may not look it so much. You know? Does this make sense?
ooo I’d love to get nail polish I’m just scared to ask lol
I think sometimes the absolute hardest part is allowing yourself to do it.
People really don’t care what you buy. If anything they do think it’s for someone else.
I bought some recently because it was close to a shade I thought and on sale. The hardest part really was like convincing myself it’s OK. Nobody said anything. It was all internal.
As a straight guy that started painting his nails, I can assure you that the entire process is surprisingly simple.
Buying nail polish? Hmm, he must be buying some for his gf how nice.
Wearing nail polish? No matter how vibrant, I have never had someone notice my nails unless I have had actual prolonged exposure to them, in which case they almost immediately assume it is because of a girlfriend or daughter or something.
Most of the time people don’t notice, it took my boss two weeks even when we work next to each other pointing at things on a screen regularly.
