Your success rate in passing as a woman in public is, perhaps not surprisingly, dependent on your femininity. But contrary to what some men understand, being feminine is much more than just the clothes you wear.
It encompasses everything from body language and voice pitch to how to conduct yourself socially - and a number of other factors that we will cover in this booklet.
So what are the crucial things to remember? How do women behave? How do you get outside the front door for the first time dressed in female clothing?
If you are forty, would you need to act and dress in the same way a forty-year-old woman would when out in public, so as to not bring any unwanted attention to yourself?
We'll help you answer these questions, beginning with a look at what femininity is all about and how to achieve it.
The first thing to learn is that one of the most crucial elements of your femininity is your psychological 'posture'.
Although gender roles have changed drastically over the past few decades, it remains true that society still defines some characteristics as essentially masculine or feminine.
Much of it dates back to the Victorians (men don't cry, for example) but some of it is just plain cave man - or woman. Even so, you'll recognise a great deal of truth in these generalisations.
TIP:
Being a feminine cross dresser is not just about beautiful feminine clothing. Observe how women behave differently from men, both physically - for example, women don't sit with their ankle resting on their knee - and psychologically.
