1. When picking an outfit, choose something that matches where you are going. Unless you have extreme confidence and don't give a darn what anyone thinks of me-itis, (you probably wouldn't be reading this) then you don't want to stand out. Obvious tips. If you are taller than most girls, maybe you don't want to wear heels or tight shorts that go down to the knee. They make you look taller. Perhaps some looser fitting clothes. No hooker skirt or overly big fake breast, or overly extravagent dress like your going to prom.

2. Facial hair can be a big give away. Perhaps before trying to pass. don't shave for 2 or 3 days. Shave right before you are about to get ready and before you do, use a HOT washclothe on your face to open up the pores. Shave with the grain then against. Use a new razor. Use a cold washclothe after.

3. Makeup should not be overdone. There are great products for covering up facial hair. There is also a tip that lipstick can help offset the blueish green shade of the beard. May want to practice. Eyeliner around the eyes is lovely as is a little eye shadow. If you have a lighter complection, don't go for the pinkish red blush, try a bronzer powder. For darker skin normal blush is fine. And of course a little lip gloss or lipstick. All this can be done to your style.

4.Voice. Voice is perhaps the most embarassing thing for someone trying to pass. Well, this is by far not the best explanation about how to attain a good femme voice, but it worked for me. Here we go...

1. Raise your voice as high as it will go without going into a falsetto. Great. Now that you have that pitch in mind.

2. Take a deep breathe. Really deep...Now Breathe out while holding that note fairly loudly. Try to keep it steady. Do this about 10 times. Breathe out until you run out of breathe. This makes it easier to keep that note.

3. Trying to stay in that pitch, practice these excersises while recording yourself and adjusting as you go.

Practice practice practice....The more you do this the easier it'll be and the less your throat will hurt after.

5.If you can, go out with a friend. People seem to zone in on a women/girl by herself. Normally women with a companion are passed over. Try not to act nervous. If, you happen to lock eyes with someone, do what any girl would do, give a slight smile and then just keep moving. Don't hold your head down. Well, that goes into the next step.

6.Walking. Stides should be comfortable. You don't want to overstep and you don't want to mince around. Try to keep a nice fluid motion. Try to keep your feet facing forward, not inward like a penguin or out like most guys. Your weight should go from your heel and make a line straight to the ball of your big toe. Don't overdo the hip motion. A Slight motion of the hips is fine. As your left knee bends, you can slightly swish your right nip bone forward. then the opposite for the left. Wrist can be left limp and held out slightly, don't overdo it. Walk as if there is a string attatched to your head pulling you slightly upward. Chin slightly up. Fluidity is the main ingredient. (purse can really also help)

7.It may help to go places like the mall when it opens really early in the morning during a week day. The hardest time I have is feeling self conscience when there are younger people around. This way there are more elderly walking the mall and all is much more quiet.

Sorry this was very quickly done. Hope it helps some.
