So, I’m not publicly out, and I can pass either way (except voice of friggin course), and I am attending a wedding as a guest soon. The families are white, bougie, mid western and maybe conservative-ish. The other side is some shade of middle eastern, conservative, Muslim and Arab influences (I don’t know the families at all). I have no desire to draw attention so I’m going to go in boy-mode, but I also don’t want to feel like shit the whole time. Anyone ever find a good way to balance things without firing up the dysphoria into overdrive? I would love to be in a nice sun dress of course, but it ain’t happening. I have some mens suits and plenty of menswear formal-ish attire that I can work with. Anyway, anyone got any thoughts?

    The amount of money it would cost to tailor a men’s suit into a more feminine cut would possibly be more than to buy a nice, new, season-appropriate suit. I think your advice is solid.
