    Doing those kinds of things at home because they were fun actually led to me realizing I’m genderfluid recently. It’s been crazy facing a part of my experience of life that the patriarchal society we live in essentially deprived me of up to this point: knowing how euphoric it feels to let myself want to be pretty and feminine sometimes.

      Amen to that, broster.

      I’m lucky that my wife is enby and a similar size, so was happy for me to try on some of their clothes. Long story short, Vinted has enabled me to build up a small wardrobe of dresses, skirts, and pretty tops that I wear most evenings. It feels nice to feel pretty.

        So far I’ve only got socks, skirts, and hair accessories (hair down to my waist). Definitely been wanting to explore other clothing now that I know myself better.

        It sounds like you’re having a blast, and it’s always fun to hear about how other folks have experimented. Vinted looks neat, If you’ve got any other tips let me know lol
