Reply To: Should I try to feminize my voice when dressed?

[Nikki Just Nikki]

I struggle with this, too. Presenting en femme is a fundamental part of being authentically me, and whenever I try to feminize my voice it feels like artifice. My SO says I probably just need practice and that I shouldn’t stress about it one way or another, and that it’s more important to feel authentic than anything else. Besides, I feel like I fly under the radar a bit until people interact with me, then there’s no way I’ll pass and not simply due to my voice. It’s  all a work in progress, I guess…
