Check out therapistaid.com. There’s worksheets there that you can download for free.
Of course it would be a lot more beneficial if you have a therapist to help you through it but not everyone has access to one.
It’s a free site where you can have free downloads of worksheets on many things.
If there’s something there that you think would be helpful, print it out and complete the worksheet on your own.
It’s hard to be accountable for yourself but at least there’s a way for you to have some insight and work on yourself.
How do I make my masculine walk more feminine?
Chrissi says:
This is really an important part of transition for trans feminine folks, and one gender therapists seem to forget. Here’s some steps that should help.
Focus your weight into your hips. Cismales tend to walk with their weight in their arms or stomachs. Think of a model walking a runway — her steps are light and her shoulders are back.
Swing your hips as you step. While an overly enthusiastic swing will certainly be noticeable, most ciswomen walk with a subtle hip swing. Practice by walking around your home and exaggerating the swing, then tone it down when you hit the street.
Slow it down. If you observe ciswomen in a shop or casual setting, or searching for a shiny Charizard, that was stolen from them at school (not bitter), you will notice that they tend to browse and meander. It’s not uncommon for a ciswoman to walk like she’s on a mission, but mimicking these browsing habits can make you appear more feminine.
Swing your arms gently and point your elbows in toward your torso. A light swing comes off as feminine, and turning the elbows results in creating a smaller silhouette.
Relax your muscles and allow your body to move more fluidly. If you’re wearing a wig, ensure it is secured so you can move your head freely. Rigid posture will make you appear more manly than feminine. Don’t relax too much though, or you’ll be sitting down, and this helps no one.
I know you didn’t ask but here’s a bonus:
Tips on walking in heels, a lot struggle, even ciswomen, and Princess Leia..
POSTURE: Heels pitch weight forward, so for balance, keep your head up and shoulders back. Tightening your core will offset some of the pressure on your feet.
STEPS: Striding in a normal heel-to-toe motion can snap a stiletto or twist an ankle. Instead take short steps, going down evenly on the ball of the foot and heel. But remember heel-to-toe is the best way if you’re walking in sturdy heels.WEIGHT: As your weight shifts fully onto a foot, spread your toes in the shoe slightly; this will help to distribute the weight onto the ball of the foot. HIPS: When you’re feeling off-balance, you tend to stiffen up. For an easy, attractive momentum, let your hips swing in small, sideways, figure-eight motions.
These should help you appear more Kate Moss, and less Bambi on ice.
Much love

Please help... My abusive father is making me get a haircut, despite him knowing how much distress it causes me. Its either I get it cut or get kicked out so do you have any pictures of feminine short haircuts cuz my hair isn't that long anyways. (trans girl if looking for clarification)
Hey there,
I’m really sorry that you’re in this situation! I hope you’re able to get somewhere safe and healthy soon, and that you’ve got a support system now.
Pixie cuts are pretty feminine short cuts. Kpop guys tend to have pretty androgynous haircuts as well. “Skater boy”/Justin Bieber haircuts are also good for someone who wants longer or shorter hair cut can’t get it (true trans masc and trans fem solidarity). There are lots of pictures online if you google it, and you’ll know better than me what pictures your dad would accept.
Good luck, and I hope you’re able to get the haircut you want soon. :)
