It is! I ordered one (Copper Straight Hair) off Amazon a couple of days after they released, I saw some article about the release with a slightly negative slant to the story and defiantly said yep, totally buying one! As a grown ass adult finally coming to accept myself after a decade of denial and trying to bury who I am, these dolls showed up at just the right time, and I absolutely love mine!
Looking at getting some Skipper clothes to swap out with right now. While they come with several outfits I need more, and they have a slightly different size and build than standard Barbies. If you've got twenty bucks to blow (mine was thirty but they've dropped in price since then), these dolls are totally worth it!
butt meat ��
Sorry lol. Thank you so much for being so kind!!
While it's not the first time I've worn a dress, this will likely be my first time wearing a dress in public (outside a dressing room, really). I've tried on enough clothes to have a rough idea of my sizes and I have some approximate measurements in my head. I actually found this dress on Amazon and lucked out that it ran pretty true to size. I knew it would be shorter on me than on the model (because I'm 6'2" and the model obviously isn't lol), it's just a little shorter than I imagined. I'd have liked to have another inch or two...but that is probably just me not having a good idea of where the "appropriate" line is........since 1- I never learned those things as a little girl because I never was a little girl and 2- I'm still pretty new to the world of women's fashion and ladylike living!
This comment really made my night, thank you!! ❤️️
LAMOOOO
ARSON HAS BEEN A REAL NAME LOOONG BEFORE NOW!
https://www.ancestry.com/search/categories/35/?name=Arson
I found records of Arson as a first name as early as the 1800’s.
Let them argue that!
Might be this one to whoever is looking?
They aren't marked as binders for trans people, but that is indeed what they are. They're for dudes who have extra breast tissue (it happens) who want to flatten it out. Let me put up a link to one I got. It's also called a compression shirt.

Well thanx! Glad you do!
You're not the first to say so either. The other asked for the details where to find it. Don't know if you are interested but since I already looked it up figured I'd share:
On Amazon if you search "Minthunter Women's Long Sleeve Crew Neck Cute Tunic Color Block Tops" that is the name. I purchased it in medium and large and just kept the one which fit best. (I believe I kept the medium because I liked the more slim fit)
Thanks! I used this gel for my brows: https://www.amazon.com/LOreal-Paris-Unbelieva-Brow-Waterproof-Resistant/dp/B07GY7YX3C
The lipstick is color #4 "Exposed" from this set: https://www.amazon.com/NAQIER-Lipstick-Moisturizer-Waterproof-lipstick/dp/B07JVP1MVR
I don't know if it helps but there's an amazing children's book on gender identity that comes with a glossary of resources in the back. Here is the link: https://www.amazon.com/Feels-Good-Be-Yourself-Identity/dp/1250302951/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=it+feels+good+to+be+yourself&qid=1625104475&sprefix=it+feel&sr=8-1
Amazon link! I like them because they're plain and to the point. I'm sure if you look on amazon you can find neopronouns but they/he/she are all I ever need so I found a convenient matching three pack:)
aaaah I’ve been kinda stressed about this because I look so feminine, so I need these reminders 😣
You look so pretty here! You remind me of Misa Amane :3
I was given this book after coming out as non-binary/genderfluid
https://www.amazon.com/dp/0801093708/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_glt_fabc_FVGXD6TBZ3MWQWQ3ZFP4
To be fair to the person who gave it to me, I read it. It's a very shallow, surface level, self help book. The author was/is be green when it comes to writing and it at times feels narcissistic, as he uses his experiences to describe how to live life as a man smh
I was rather disappointed
- Overalls! Lucy and Yak (UK based) and Dangerfield (Australia based) are two good brands that I know of that sell overalls (especially L&Y).
- Jewellery. Daintier/thinner chains have a more feminine look, and pierced ears with hoops or hanging earrings tend to look more feminine than studs.
- Pants with skinner fits.
- Those knee-length, loose shorts that look skirt-like. For example https://www.amazon.com/Chartou-Womans-Casual-Stretched-Culottes/dp/B07NX4VDR5 . Would look great with a tighter-fitting black tank top!
- Androgynous shoe styles like canvas sneakers, Doc Marten boots.
- Clothes in mens cuts but more 'feminine' colours. Eg. swim shorts in light pink.
- Hair and makeup makes a big difference! Light makeup like mascara, colourful eyeliner. Longer or dyed hair.
- Button-up shirts with more fun, colourful, playful prints (like florals).
- Knitted cardigans and sweaters.
You can get some for really cheap on Amazon if you don't wanna go out. Gotta stay Covid safe! https://www.amazon.com/About-Face-Fuzz-Free-Disposable-Irritation/dp/B07NR43R9B/ref=mp_s_a_1_4?dchild=1&keywords=eyebrow+razor&qid=1606195378&sprefix=eyebrow+r&sr=8-4
Thank you so much!!
As for your question if this was a recent acquisition: it was indeed! (and for the exact reason you stated, it was just way too tempting-)
Took me a while to dig up the link again, but I think I found it!
Oof, I hear you about the categories phase. I don't have kids of my own but I teach young kids!
I do have a great picture book rec: It Feels Good to be Yourself by Theresa Thorn includes pages and pages of (named!) characters with a wide range of gender identities, pronouns, and presentations. There's something really powerful about being able to point to a character and go, "you know JJ on page 13 who isn't a boy or a girl? I'm like them!" Something about rooting new ideas in recognizable characters really sticks with young kids (just look at the Mo Willems books or Daniel Tiger or whatever it is these days...) This book is the most clear, inclusive (though of course a little simplified) all-levels-accessible, and lovingly-illustrated one I've come across yet, and I've dug through a LOT of gender-affirming kid lit! I could definitely see it being a successful read-together with a kindergartner. Good luck!
That looks absolutely stunning. Last month, I had to just draw something on the computer because since I'm taking classes online, my digital media teacher just wanted to know if everyone can use a computer and if they can draw on it.
I drew a purple sunrise from my window but then I realized that the sunrise was in the same colors as the non-binary pride flag. I guess my pride had subconsciously made its way into my art.
Here's a link. It's on LGBT Amino. =/
I dropped a link elsewhere in the comments, but I won't make you hunt for it: Here ya go
Some clothing brands like tomboyx do neutral swimwear that comes as either two piece sets or one-piece swimming costumes, maybe that could be an option that would work for you? I can't vouch for the quality or compression, I don't own any of these, but it might give you an idea of some styles that appeal.
Personally I've found that a "boyleg" style one piece swimsuit (like this) with board shorts over the top works well for me. You might also want to consider a shorty wetsuit or a combination of board shorts plus a rash vest if you want your arms covered as well.

This is the binder I’ve had for about a year now and it’s holding up very nicely, https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01EKN6ZII/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_PVX5MSRFAB2XKF1GSANB?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
Something I’ve found very helpful but I don’t see talked about much is stepping into your binder and pulling it up over your butt rather then down over your head and shoulders. If you pull on your binder like a shirt it can put a lot of stress on your shoulders in addition to being awkward as heck when the damn thing gets caught in your armpit and twisted up around your shoulder blades.
I’m AMAB and have been wearing “women’s” underwear for several years. I started out feeling the same as you, anxious and stared at because I was in the wrong section looking at all the varieties. It’s funny because my favorite are boy short panties. Now I quite enjoy being in my section.
I do have a favorite brand/style I get from Amazon at this point. Limited-time deal: Ruxia Women's Seamless Boyshort Panties Nylon Spandex Underwear Stretch Boxer Briefs Pack of 5 … https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B077N4VQHV/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_EZD8G11BTV4EX68NK4XC?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
i’ve just started using it! i do really like it, but it’s taking some practice to learn how to position it best.
make sure you check the sizing for the tape—i assumed i would have the smallest size but i’ve been using two to three strips at a time, so next time i’ll order larger.
these band aids make great nipple covers!
and definitely get their balm or some other soothing cream for your skin to use after removal. it irritates my skin a bit; i haven’t worn it for more than two days at a time. but it heals quickly if you are good about using the balm.
Hey! I’m 5’11”. 100%, feminine clothes are so comfy. Lol.
here’s what I recommend for tucking
I’m a huge Lululemon fan. If your wallet can afford it...their Align leggings are incredibly comfortable and gentle on tucking. The align high rise pant 28 is what I wear regularly.
I’ve spent the last few months starting to expand my wardrobe from masc to femme. It’s a blast and takes time to find what all fits me. It’s fun exploring. Have fun Trinity :)
You look great!
I have super oily skin, and I had really bad acne when I was a teenager. Ultimately, I really had to get on my shit in setting up a facial skin care routine to avoid a ton of acne. Anything that's marketed specifically as for acne works by drying out your skin in order to attempt to limit your skin's ability to produce and distribute oil, usually recommends using a toner that also dries out your skin, and pairs with a moisturizer to attempt to replace the oil your body is supposed to be producing. It worked at reducing my acne, but it really wrecked my skin because my skin expects the amount of oil that my body produces, and removing it entirely just made my face really dry.
If I were to go back, I'd probably use something like Purity Made Simple instead, which washes away the oil on your face, but doesn't dry out your skin. You will have an oily face again by the end of the day, but you can just wash it again before going out at night and look good. I'd also use Cetaphil lotion. I have had lotions in the past sometimes have adverse effects on my skin, but Cetaphil is both light and hasn't really had any adverse affects on my skin.
Haha, thank you kindly! 🤩
And via Amazon 😗 because that's apparently where I do all my "test clothing purchases" now 😅
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07DMTX9YW/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_fabc_1XE-FbKCB2Y2S?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
Those are just some things I found after a quick search but maybe it helps you find a starting point in what you could look for.
Fairly expensive but explicitly gender neutral: https://outplaybrand.com/
Legsuits like eg. this one: (there are a lot by a lot of different companies) https://www.amazon.com/Speedo-Myrtle-Legsuit-Swimsuit-Black/dp/B002A4HEQ2
Also you could try to mix and match shorts with tops or t-shirts. But I think that's what you already tried.
I hope this helps a bit.
I use this pallette! https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07L9Z2CYB/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apap_SyXLHy6wNGoLR
Heavily apply it onto your eyelids, then smoke it out to your surrounding eye area. Be careful about the dust, I usually clean up using my setting brush. I used the dark red color here!
it's a walking dead michonne themed bag, I got it off Amazon but there are definitely other places. linmk
Of course! Anything of the same material (10-ish% spandex, the rest polyester or nylon), seamless, similar cut will work the same. I did find one of the sets on the Australian amazon, but the prices are getting into what I'd consider ridiculous at that point
Search Amazon for seamless men’s boxer briefs and there’s a number of options that come up. They’re usually around $15 for a 6-pack. Since they’re seamless there’s no extra crotch pouch (it would just stretch to accommodate). I’ve bought these ones specifically before.

I've got a pretty large belly, something like a size 24 in pants. I find that bootcut or flared jeans look more feminine on me than straight leg or skinny jeans, and I stick to those even when they're less popular. Flowy tops also work well, anything that's form fitting in the top half and loose below the bust. Tunic tops, some peasant tops, etc.
If you don't really have much in the boob department, look for a padded / push-up bra in a B cup, you won't find many 42+ band sizes with a smaller cup that are affordable, and they do surprisingly well even with just heavyset AMAB-boobs.
I don't usually have very good luck at thrift stores, there's rarely a decent amount of plus-size clothing and it's rarely something I'd wear. I've been buying cheaper stuff from Amazon, the quality isn't amazing, but I've been pretty happy with this brand. Hope that helps!
I'm not out yet, and while my parents are probably supportive, I dont feel ready to come out yet, so therapy seems tough.

Although they're all clasps so having to clasp them myself when my girlfriend is stuck in Missouri kinda fucking sucks. I wear them a lot more when we're able to visit each other cuz she just does em for me lol

Btw I tried to respond to your last post in the other thread multiple times but reddit will not allow my response to go through :(
I'm glad you stopped lurking and finally made an account (:
It's actually this, which is what my wife uses too. Her hair is naturally blonde enough for it to work without bleaching, but it didn't do much to mine without bleaching it first. I plan on keeping it blue as it's both of our favorite colors in one form or another, and I find it adorable that we match <3. Might keep a bit of it my natural color or add some darker red, though at that point I'd probably get it professionally done.
Ok, so heres the thing. If i wanted to help, I would want to know if they have any femme or masc style preferences. Not making a statement to me sounds like a simple non flamboyant color.
I am also Canadian, and last winter we had 2 weeks of -35~c with windchill making it push -45. So Function over form, but also cute would have me lean THIS. I mean no disrespect to anyone, but I feel 9/10 enby just wanna feel cute (though their own kind of cute).
A nice soft hood, simple design. Personally my coats a beige longcoat with a grey/pink highlight strip around upperchest/back...But its designed to be layered ontop of an inner sweater or coat, with extra wide arms and neck

Second note, now that I’m really looking at the picture with the trousers. Your top is kind of sheer, and the skin-under-white look is not terribly classy. Consider getting a chemise or tank top to go under, it will give a cleaner line, and a cleaner background for your sure-to-be-faaaaabulous accessories!
I’m thinking something like a really chunky black and white statement bib-style necklace, like this, this,
You're welcome! I'm glad I helped :) It's a really hard thing for most people to do, even those without mental health issues. I haven't read it myself, but I see Nonviolent Communication: A Language of Life recommended a lot, if you're looking for something to read to help with that. The author was very, very Christian and I believe it's got some references to religion, but it's not an explicitly religious book, and it ends up on a lot of lists that definitely aren't recommending it for the religiousness.
Good luck. It sounds like you're in a really tough situation. I hope you can fix it somehow soon.
I can't quite remember where I bought it from but here's a link to the same hoodie Link
You’re so cute!!! If you get your eyebrows threaded, it’s definitely help your face have a more feminine frame. Most malls have a little threading salon and it usually costs 7-10 bucks. Also, if you use a clarifying shampoo and only condition the ends, it’ll help your hair look shiny without looking greasy.Giovvani makes a really nice one that’s hydrating and clarifying so it won’t dry out your hair as much. I also would recommend Framesi although it’s not technically considered a clarifying shampoo.

I'll wear swimming shorts over the top of a one-piece swimsuit. You could totally put a t-shirt over the top but if it gets wet it's going to stick to you anyway so I don't usually bother. You can get swim shirts (tankini tops) but you might have trouble matching them to your shorts if you're particular about that. You could also get a wetsuit and some shorts over the top to make it look less odd. Hope this helped :)

I also haven't gotten a hair cut in a long while. My hair is nearly down to my waist at this point. It never looked right in a fancy short cut (it curls unevenly and I look like a disheveled poodle) so I just grew it out.

Society is getting better, and quickly. I feel so much more comfortable presenting in feminine ways than I would have done even 5 years ago.
There are certain environments where I feel the risks of violence are still too high to dare do it, but I happily go to work on public transport wearing somewhat feminine clothes and nail varnish, and this is in a quite working class part of the UK. I've not had any trouble so far.
I do know it's frikkin scary, though.
Are there ways you can present that you feel would fit your true gender, but which would be seen by outsiders as more sort of 'kooky' and 'alternative' than feminine? Such as black nail varnish, or eye liner like a punk band, or 't-shirt dresses' that pretty much look like long t-shirts?

my pronouns are he/they! thank you for asking!
here’s the link for the skirt, thought i’d just put it here for anyone else! https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09521JLH2/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_i_KHATJX7QVQCAS9QK6R29?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
the joy razors work best for me :) though it really varies depending on the individual though. they have a value pack that’s not as expensive as this singular one. also try men’s razors (they’re usually cheaper and much more efficient at removing stubble + not leaving razor bumps). invest in a good shaving cream, too!
Looks like the exact one I ordered is sold out 🥺

contractors spend an average of like 3 seconds looking at each CV so the visual impact is SUPER important. make it stand out and also easy to just grasp what kind of person you are.
also, canva.com has really cool layouts that may help :)
Oh also, I made a website documenting all the resources and info I collected while navigating the process for surgery. It’s specific to BC, Canada but a lot of the info is generalizable! Feel free to check it out if you’d like to get a sense of the procedure.
For those looking for it, it looks like this:

A Quick and Easy Guide to They/Them Pronouns is a really great resource! It’s a short comic written by a non-binary person and their cisgender friend. I sent it to my parents and siblings after I can out.
As lots of other folks have said, practice is great for getting used to new pronouns. But the book also highlights that it can be tough to switch. And it talks about how being misgendered feels. Hope this helps!
I just wanted to rec this amazing comic about the author's struggles with boobs, gender, and reduction surgery: https://tapas.io/series/Its-All-For-The-Breast
I can’t speak for OP, but there are these things called silicone male chest prosthetics. Some cosplayers I know use them. I have no idea the quality of this one, just an example of what they are: https://www.amazon.com/Liifun-Realistic-Silicone-Floating-Halloween/dp/B086ZQW4LR Some of them stop at the neck so you can cover them up with a turtleneck or choker.
I really like these, they cover everything up, they're breezy and not overly warm, and they have pockets! https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B091JWJHYK/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_fabc_JEVG7KH7AS1B4ZQDAZRV?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
I recently ordered a book off amazon: gender identity workbook and another called the trans self care workbook
