Have you ever taught any femine tricks to a woman?

Hi Kristine,

Oh how I've tried to give feminine tips to my wife.  She doesn't wear a bra so I can't help her in that department (I always just hook it in the rear and I find it to be super easy - the thought of spinning it just doesn't appeal to me).  And makeup - my wife doesn't wear any - I have a bigger supply than her.  Same with earrings, my wife doesn't even have pierced ears. My hair is also longer than my wife's (and hers is longer than average for a woman of 65).  One time she asked me what to wear to a certain event - I brought up one of my super casual maxi dresses to show her.  She really doesn't like talking about fashion and stuff with me.  To someone who may be a bit sexist, teaching their wife tricks in the kitchen or in the laundry room might be an acceptable answer to your question but I don't think cooking or doing laundry are feminine tasks.  Thanks for posting this question.  All the Best, Hugs, Krista.

I don't know that I teach, or have taught, any feminine tricks to my wife, but I do most often pick out her outfits and put together accessories. Of course, I bought most of it to begin with, so I already had an opinion on how it all went together, lol. I do her nails and occasionally her hair.

Twice in the past I have been asked by much younger women how to walk in heels and I dont consider myself an expert in this area. While dressed as Michelle,I showed them how to walk as ladies ,and I must say it was very interesting. We started off in two inch heels and ended in four inch heels. A fun time was had in a major ladies department store.

This doesnt work for everyone but a good bit of women say it helps. Tape the third and fourth toes together and standing in heels somehow has much less pain. I tried it and where my feet would become tired within about 45 minutes, with the tape trick i was able to stand for over three hours with little to no pain. Relayed this to a GG friend and she said it worked for her. She asked how did i know about this and i told her i watch a lot of youtube videos...

I dont know, if I have taught her anything,(my wife) but I do discuss every tip and trick you girls share, here, and I do know she has used some of them.
It's wonderful having such a wide base of knowledge(the girls here) to use
Hugs, Regi👸💕

Kristine several years ago I was spending about a week in a hotel and decided I was not going to pack any guy clothes other than 1 pair for the departure. Arrived and checked in dressed and spent entire time en femme. The young lady in the room next to me smiled and said hi the first day (she looked a little rough/unkempt) and I responded politely.  The next day coming up from breakfast she caught me in the elevator and very meekly asked if I could help/teach her some makeup tips.  Long story short she had just left her very controlling husband and was “reinventing” herself and hadn’t been allowed to use makeup for years. She finally realized I was transgender and laughed at the irony of me “teaching” her makeup tips. By the end of a couple of days when she left the hotel, she had done some serious makeup and clothes shopping and looked happy and well kept. I never heard from her again but hope she lived a happy and joyous life.

Just to clarify I don’t think I “pass” that great, I just believe that young lady had lived that sheltered of a life and had never met a girl like any of us. C

As my wife has grown more accepting over the years, it seems I’m often consulted for on her outfit choices when we head out somewhere.  Not just a “how do I look” type of question, but “what would you wear to this event” type of question.  It’s fun, and it warms my heart to be honest.  I’ve also taught her a few a few bathing tricks I like, such as coconut oil in the tub which has turned into a staple for her (yay pinterest) and as get older, some different eye makeup techniques to better hide our bags and wrinkles,(yay YouTube) lol.  Thanks for the post, fun question to ponder.

I love to hear such positive stories! I hope she kept the courage to keep going down her new path!

Tiffany, now that is a good tip for all of us.
My wife was a runway model for years and she doesn't know this technique, which I find bizarre.
After all you'd think models would be the first people to figure things like this out.

I have heels from 3 inches to 6 inches. I would Love to wear my tall ones for a few hours.
Tape the third and fourth toes together... duly noted.

Bridget, yes nails!
I forgot about that one.... I took an aesthetics course 20 years ago and actually got my ticket.
Here in Ontario it was just a diploma, no actual licensing needed sadly.
I never went to work in a nail salon but I still remember a lot of what I learned.

I showed my wife when we were dating what a higher end pedicure was like.
It takes about 1 full hour to do a complete job.
I have done all her nails before but I've slacked off... I am too busy with my own lately LOL.

As her treat once she took me to a higher end nail salon and sat together and both got our feet and nails done at the same time.

Oh the days when we had money to toss around 🙁

Oh I hope it works for you! It works for quite a few people apparently. When I first heard it I thought “that’s ridiculous”. And as I taped my toes with masking tape I laughed at myself and said “now I’m being ridiculous”. I felt different almost immediately after standing up and was shocked that it worked. At least for me anyway.

I don’t know why it works and it seems crazy but it does work. Good luck!

So here's another one.
Last night the air conditioning had been left on at a temperature that was a bit low.
So this morning I got up first as usual and got dressed, freshened up my makeup and set about getting the house ready for the day.
As I dressed I thought it was a bit cool so I put on a pretty soft flowery pink scarf to keep my neck warm until the sun came up to balance the heat with our cool. I chose a pair of medium pink earrings to compliment the scarf and take away from the fact I was wearing a white top with a black and white skirt. The two pink articles blended nicely and made a warm ensemble.

My wife eventually got up (two hours later) and saw how I was dressed, she is always happy to see me dressed well in the mornings. Its no surprise that I am always in skirts and blouses because that's how she expects me.

OK, lets get to the point instead of going on and on and on with this digressing nonsense...
So today she notices the scarf, which she has seen on me before but not tied this way....
Maybe I should say "knot tied this way"? LOL

She said to me: "How did you tie your scarf that way?"
I said: "this is called 'the pretzel knot'.. you were a model and don't know that one?"
She said "No, I only know one way to tie a scarf, how did you know that"?
I said: "Well, I'm a girl that's how. You're a girl too so why don't you know the pretzel knot?"
Insert both of us laughing here... a lot of laughing.
I then went to get her first coffee of the day and then...

Very seriously, I proceeded to show her four different ways to tie a pretty scarf stylishly around a feminine neck.

Am I having too much fun?

Magnetic lashes. I loaned mine to my wife for an evening and she latched on to them, she had no idea such a thing existed. I had to buy her a set to get mine back. 😂

Also taught her about overdrawing her lips with matte lipstick 💄 She was amazed how much fuller her normally thin lips could look.
