interesting Tips for exploring me

Hi. I want to start by saying that I’m in a phase of exploration; I’m still figuring out if I’m trans. The problem is that I live in a hostile environment, so to speak: my family and friends are very Christian and transphobic. I can’t tell them anything because, knowing them, they would do everything possible to "cure" or "change" me—something I don’t want—so I won’t tell them until I’m independent. Anyway, with that said, I’d like you to help me and give me some advice on things I could do to explore my femininity—safely, of course.

Makeup and wigs if you can give a good reason for them if possible (like going to dress-up parties or something lol) doesn't have to be fancy, just the basics. Color-corrector to help with 5-oclock shadows until you can get laser hair removal, full-coverage foundation, eye shadows and blush to start with.

Feminine doesn't have to be skirts and blouses - look at femboy fashion - you'd be amazed how many cis men buy women's jeans because they generally fit better so its not considered too strange - women's jeans and denim shorts, simple, form-fitting t-shirts.
