How to be more feminine?
| there are specific diets and stuff, but the biggest thing is the manners, observe what other gurls do
| There could be a long list.
Appearance
Clothing
Manners
Behavior patterns
Voice/intonation/speech patterns
TBH I feel sad for you anon, it is hard to be feminine but when you look masculine (like myself)
| First of all: >Boi
Anyway if real it alls comes down to image, taking care of body hair a lot and keeping yourself looking nice while you get the hang of it to eventually look femenine without trying. Diet and cardio are important and not too much upper body training.

| lots of things! I could go on and on but most importantly is manners, hygiene and clothes. manners in general but being polite is important. hygiene: make sure you smell nice & have soft skin, find a product that works for you if you don't naturally have soft skin, shave too! and as long as you look the part with clothes, most people will be accepting :) good luck!

The soft skin bit is cruel. OP, most males do not have soft skin at all past 18-22. Some advanced skin cream may work a little, but it won't restructure your skin. Hormones are necessary to achieve fem-tier soft skin when you are a male (if you are not already feminized by default like some femboys)
I have also read that topical estradiol cream works, but good luck with that.

| Even masculine people can appear feminine in behavior or also appearance. Women are more likely to use products like moisturizer, conditioner, and other skin / self care products. It kinda sucks that they're regularly held to that standard, but definitely look into some self care beauty routines.
Also there's easy things like painting your nails and getting your ears pierced. Using foundation is good too, you don't have to put on a full face of makeup to use things like concealer.
| Regarding nails, you want to use a nail oil, preferably something with jojoba oil in it. Always use a base and top coat. If you paint your nails a lot they'll start to stain yellow, especially if you use dark colors. It's not going to hurt you and if you use products / buff away the yellow you'll severely weaken your nails. It's not permanent, if your nails grow out without much polish the new nail will be back to clear / white.
| Don't be too worried about things like a strong, square jaw, or less masculine features - gender norms are shifting, so just do what makes you happy. Makeup will always be there for you if it bothers you too much. Do your eyebrows. Maybe use some light mascara if your eyelashes are nonexistent.
| Regarding the soft skin thing above, moisturize and use sunscreen EVERY FREAKING DAY. Try to minimize the amount of rough work you do with your hands, and wear gloves when you have to. Also, make sure to use facial products that help you according to your face type. In general, people with oily faces will have more issues with acne but significantly less issues with wrinkling and dry skin. Find reliable face masks and scrubs.
| Don't be afraid to walk into Sephora or something to get what you need, too. You can say it's for yourself, people won't really care. If you're too self-conscious just say you have an anniversary coming up and describe your own facial issues instead of your "partner's".
| Make sure to always drink water. In terms of skin care it is very important for smooth skin.

| Thank you for your kind words and for all your suggestions. I think my biggest problem is my body hair. I'm naturally really hairy and its black so its really obvious unfortunately but I'm eighteen, soft skin and womanly hips apprently. I also crossdressed for the first time yesterday which was a lot of fun.

Though I have a "femboy" (boy)friend/close friend myself so perhaps I should be quiet.
