Daphne then think of the basics. Focus on what youâre capable of doing now, and do it. Watch your posture; slouching is easy. Never put your hands in your pockets unless youâre getting something out; itâs a slovenly look. Speak respectfully but not overly formally to authority, including your parents. Endeavor to remain calm at all times. Put schoolwork and domestic duties first above all other things. Offer to help your parents more, and donât just ask them to direct what you do. Find ways to ease the burden around the house.
Watch your mannerisms to confirm that youâre carrying yourself like a young lady and not a man. Thereâs a lot to unlearn. In my view, two thirds of what makes a trans woman a woman happens inside, regardless of surgery, hormones or clothing.
