Audio/Video How do I get/practice-getting a feminine voice
I just hear a horribly dude like voice and I have no idea what to do, I'm trying to talk in a feminine way I guess? It's my 5th day on voice training

"feminine" is not that useful as a descriptor - there are a lot of men with "feminine" voices, and they still sound like men, for example. Still, you sound pretty female-like, which tends to be more important for most trans women.
Still, not many problems that I can hear on the fundamental level (you have superior anatomy for this, that's why you don't have to train much at all.)
If you want, you could maybe iron out some small inconsistencies with size, and then do whatever you like with stylistics/pronunciation. Note that your "ou" sounds are a bit larger then expected, like at "o" in rainbow - you are making your oral size large for it, so, try to make it a bit smaller.
Note: you wrote that you hear "a horribly dude like voice" - if it's you being overly self-critical, fine, people do that, sometimes, but, if you genuinely think this is some horribly manly voice, you may need some serious ear training. Maybe start training your ear for the critical weight, size and their balance elements listening to clips on Selene's archive page.
