Last week I read the gender dysphoria bible and after a few days thinking about it I am coming to accept that I am trans. Everything clicked into place and I feel like I’ve been electrified. My mindset is completely different and I am actively looking forward to things happening in my life. I want to come out and transition eventually but right now I just want to try wearing different clothes, even if it’s just in my room. I’m going to buy some thigh socks since I’ve always wanted to wear them but I’m 5’10" and my thighs are kind of big so I’m not sure if I can just buy any pair since cis women are usually smaller. Does anyone know any good quality socks I could buy online that ship in discrete packaging?

    Unfortunately I’m a little shorter than you also with thick thighs and i’ve had litrle luck with thigh high socks. The best I’ve found are sockdreams.com, but even those roll down my thighs after a while. I wish you much luck in your journey discovering yourself! <3

      Invest in garters. Its the best solution I’ve found to thigh high socks or stockings rolling down. Ive tried ones that advertise as sticking well, but they either don’t last long or don’t work very well imo.

      Thank you! This is exactly what I was looking for. I hadn’t considered they might roll but I can try a garter like LadyAutumn suggested. I did some searching and it seems some people use fashion tape for the same thing so I might try that too.
