I asked my mother a few years after she found out my crossdressing if it would bother her if I wore heels around her. She told please don't. It kinda of hurt but I did have my answer. I personally find the unknown more frightening then rejection.

You definitely don't want to blindly buy a size if you don't have a solid idea of your size. The ideal solution is getting your foot measure in the woman size with what every you plan on wearing on your feet with those boots. So probably shouldn't measure your foot in socks if you plan on wearing nylons with the boots or vice versa. Some other options are go to a low end store that have foot measurers on the floor were you can measure your foot yourself then you will get a good idea of your size. Then you could buy something and return it if you don't like the fit. But with boots I really recommend trying on instore because the foot isn't the only measurement you need to worry about. Your foot could fit but your calves might not.

Most people are lazy when it comes to dressing so they respect people who still seem to care. As many options as women have the typical casual supper dress is tank top/cami, shorts, and flip flops. And men usually shirt, baggy shorts, and sneakers or flip flops. So anything other then that probably will draw attention. Sometimes good and sometimes bad.

Women have seen me in a few feminine items while looking like a male and fully dressed up as a female. But as a male in all traditional male clothing no one has ever asked if I wore women's clothing.

If you are going to try it I recommend one with buttons over one without them. The one without buttons usually have a better shape since you don't wear it closed but it will also hang badly since it does have the curves to rest on. If you get one with buttons then usually when closed it will give you a little of the intended shape. Another thing you probably will want to tall section so the sleeves length and blazer length are long enough.

You can try talking to them again, but if they really won't listen the psychiatrist might not be a bad idea. I am sure you mom is assuming that the psychiatrist will side with them which isn't true since it is not a disorder. Also your parents really do have no business in your bank account. Go paperless and only check your account by the internet.

If your closet is a decent size then a footlocker at the bottom of it. Or if you have you own set of luggage you keep in your room you could store them in it.

The first pair I bought happen when I was between 12-15years old. I just remember it was when I was in junior high so had to be around that age. It was close to my mom birthday so when we were at the mall I asked to split up so I can shop for her present and the keys to the car so I could put it in the car without her seeing it. Once I broke away from her I immediately went to payless and got some shoes that I thought would fit. They were kinda of ugly in retrospect but at the time payless didn't have cute shoes in the larger sizes. I put those in the car then started shopping for her present.

She did make a kinda of odd statement. I think she was saying you slipped up somewhere and she knows you crossdress, but is alright with it. And make yourself at home while she is away. But I don't think she really attended on you wearing her clothes. Some very close friends don't mind other wearing their clothes, but I think you really should ask what she meant by that statement when she returned.

Fox news isn't really known for being open minded so it was probably was a pretty good interview considering. The problem still is the people who want more confidence and acceptance to maybe try heels in public don't really look to Fox News as a sympathetic outlet. And as you can read from the comments on their page the story doesn't appeal to their general fanbase.

That doesn't sound too bad. Church and co-workers can be circles for gossip and places of gaining advancements in the workplace. If it came down to your wife and another employee they could use your heels as her husband wearing heels as a bad image for the company and possible get the promotion instead. The person in charge hiring won't say that was the reason why but it could happen. As for church a lot of people use it as a networking place too. And depending on the size of the church it can greatly affect how the community views your family. It seems she just doesn't want you to do it in places where people know your names. Other places where you probably won't ever see people again she probably won't care.

I always like how Prince seems to wear high heels and not care what others thought.

Recent Purchases:

Bumper QOORS-15 Heel-Less Strappy Wedges (Burlington, $29)

Bought them for the over the top nature of the shoes. The attractive price point put it over the edge.

Thanks for posting this, I saw this post late last night and immediate with to Burlington this morning hoping they still had that shoe. And while they didn't have that exact show they did have some similar styles. The one I tried was black and cream with two ankle straps. Pretty sure I wasn't going to buy it in the color but still was fun to try on.

Just curious on how the Bumper QOORS-15 Heel-Less Strappy Wedges to walk in? Interesting! The pumps look great also! Not a fan of the sneaker wedges but that's just me.

It pretty much feels like you are walking on your tip toes. It wasn't that bad but not sure how long I could do it for though.

The right pair is more stylish and a current trend. But I think left is a more timeless style. If not for the price I would get right pair.

They definitely do grow on you. At first, I also said why would anyone want to wear that but then thought well maybe.

I think 4 inch ones are better despite some 5" heels with a platform being right next to me on the floor.

Yeah I do but to be fair just because you are a woman doesn't mean you can wear anything without people saying bad things to you. Women get told that clothes makes you look old, aren't you too old to be wearing that, you are the wrong shape for that, you look like a streetwalker, and etc. Everyone who thinks that won't say it to their face same as us but some will think it.

If someone gave them to me I would wear them, but I won't spend my money on them.

Well a long standing challenge is I want to try to walk in some ballet heels. It not something I think I will do anytime soon since most stores don't have them where you can try them on. And I really don't want to buy them since I don't I will have much use for them.

They are restrictive since usually they make you a lot least agile and walker slower or at least with more caution. I don't really see them as a symbol of dominant or submissive but if I had to pick one submissive. A lot people wear heels because they were asked, told too, or think they should for an occasion.

Not worse but similar carrying a garbage bag down some narrow steps cause me to misstep and hurt my ankle.

Haven't really bought anything on layaway because from what I heard a lot of time when you finally get it out it is dated especially with fashion. Like how color blocking is in at the moment but a few months from now it probably will be labeled as tacky.

Hope you enjoyed yourself and it is the first of many times out in heels.

Even though I wasn't quite going for a full female look I got called ma'am which I think was a slip up but was happy to hear it nonetheless.

I wonder if you can actually walk in them because they don't look sturdy.
