Disclaimer: I don't claim to be a vocal coach.
The most crucial aspect of a Tgirl trying to pass in public is the voice, and the secret to finding your feminine voice is practice, practice and yet more practice.
Pitch, resonance and inflection To start, practice saying "aaah" Start low and repeat, bringing it slowly up in tone. Try to stop any resonance in your diaphragm, (when you can feel your chest vibrate) You can try to move your shoulders, and chest muscles to help.
Next step is inflection, or 'how' you speak. En-un-ci-ate! This calls for imitation, studying the way females talk, what they talk about, body language, and subtle movements. You will notice that a woman speaks more with a melody, and the tone and inflection of her voice changes much more than a man's.
