  1. I live in a small town in a liberal area, but fully present as female in conservative places all the time. I've never felt in danger. I've received bad comments and stares but that is about it and not many of those. I am really careful on where i go alone when traveling, i dress smartly feminine but not over the top. Even if i am going to a friendly bar for instance i take a cab door to door and i go with companion(s). This stuff is what women face all the time too, 

    One time i was dressed in women's sandals, capri jeans, and a pink t-shirt traveling in rural Northern Florida. (no makeup on and my hair was still short then) and i stopped in a truck stop. As soon as entered there was a group of biker types chowing on hot dogs. You could have heard a pin drop. No one said a word except if looks could kill. Upon leaving the lady behind the counter said... "Have a nice day sweetie! " ...and i did.

     

  2. I agree with you. At least within western society, even conservative locations are pretty safe. The exceptions of course are places and times where it is dangerous for most people such as crime areas etc. I would not go bar hopping without friends, i would not walk at night in a strange place. I would not take public transportation late at night etc. You have to be smart about things.

    I've worn full female presentation in Utah, Wyoming, Texas, rural Arizona and the list goes on

    As for avoiding gangs of teen ruffians, well everyone has that issue. The above applies as well to that threat.

  3. I agree that the first few times you wear dresses/skirts it is sort of disorientating. Never had the opportunity to try kilts in my culture as a kid, so perhaps it would have felt different. I think my first dress wearing were borrowed items in my college years. The first one i owned was later in my 20s.

    I'm actually wearing more and more this year.

  4. Leggings would work for those as well. I'd likely go with an extra long top that looks like a dress but is long enough and maybe shorts for modesty underneath. The latter could involve tights too.

  5. Really interesting feedback. I wonder if there is a cultural difference in the places that we live. I was trying to remember the last passive agressive comment or gesture i saw and i think it was at the airport in Denver. I was wearing booties, skinny jeans and a woman's leather jacket and a t-shirt. My makeup was pretty light though and Some guy sitting with his wife gave me the tsk tsk sound and shook his head...whatever dude have a nice flight.  Perhaps i see it less because it is assumed im female more now, which is still sort of a strange feeling to me because most of my life my hair was pretty short and i dressed fairly androgynous.

  6. I see leggings with skirts more often now but usually on younger women. That has been the thing that has kept me from going that route, although i dunno if i am correct or not. I wear leggings with long tops mainly. For skirts i go with tights. That is what i am wearing today to work - skirt, tights and boots.

  7. I do think there some envious reactions from both genders to what we wear and what we present like. I have rarely seen the passive aggressive chatter than you have, but i could be dense and maybe its more behind my back.

    One time in an airport security line last summer, i was dressed 100% girl, T-shirt top and nice skinny jeans and sandals. I removed the latter and was barefoot in line, when i noticed a lady nudge her friend and point at my toes, which were pained a canary blue to match my jeans. I immediately smiled at her and she blushed knowing she had been caught. She recovered well though by saying " That is so cool, what color is that? Like canary? " i replied exactly and she responded something to the effect of " you rock". lol

    Your exactly correct the further you delve without hiding the appearance like some here write about trying to do out of fear. Sometimes being bold and not caring woman tend to respect it more and compliment you as well. Lets face it what the pictures show difficult to hide or camouflage  not being noticed with pumps and stocking and skirts.

    Do know when i wear female jeans and ankle bootie with a two inch heel, woman already suspect, or know, i'm wearing their style of clothes subtle or not they are aware. Sometimes if i'm hiding it they find it amusing or weird thinking i know he wearing woman skinny jeans or leggings so what's the point of wearing it and covering up, are you shy or embarrassed... Then it makes no sense wearing clothes that is meant to show off your body yet cover it up with. So why not push it further with spiked sexy five inch stiletto oxford booties with dark opaque tights worn with a sweater dress?....:icon_idea:

    When i first bought heeled ankle booties and worn a chunky three inch heel it was more bold than the other booties and people did turn their heads noticing. At one point did see my very first  pleasant smile from a female cashier at a store i visited noticing my heeled booties. So when i blatantly wore a female heel no mistakenly that it was female matched up with ultra skinny jeans and winter pea coat it showed i wasn't bothered with anyones stares, huffing and puffing, or smirking giggles, and crude commentary...

    Hell woman already label me as looking like a girl (overhearing chatter behind me in store  cashier lineup ) wearing skinny jeggings and cuban ankle booties or high top sneakers. So why not give them exactly what they are implying to one another. Even some woman i overhear say i'm a crossdresser because i wear female yoga crop tights in the gym. While wearing some envious and glamourous heels showing off my lean legs that woman told me before are envious to want including my butt. 

    Do know one fact woman enjoy to shop and love clothes and shoes be it knee high flat boots, pumps, heeled ankle booties i know i can pull it off as well if not better as them. Often you hear woman envious of others wearing certain clothes or hair styles, giving compliments or making new friends they adore only because what they wear or look.  

    Do notice my collection of female yoga crop tights brings out many woman to delight me wearing it and are attracted to it envious often to the point of jealousy their admissions not mine.

    So their is a dilemma which women have when a male attires himself completely with feminine athletic attire head to toe and they just love the coordination color and style, yet find it wrong for a man to wear it be it, with attractive physique to go along, such as the picture below.

    Often times in the summer i wear short shorts cutoffs and a nice suntan showing off my smooth silky legs. Woman may laugh at first thinking he has legs like a woman then almost always correct themselves saying better than a woman or wishing she looked like me.

     

     

     

     

     

    I have few very high boots - (maybe 3) and i don't wear them a lot, but i have been in the mood lately. 

     

    To your example, in summer i often wear shorter shorts and sandals or wedges. Legs smooth and bare.I get very little in the way of negative feedbac.

  9. Keep up the effort - It is becoming less and less of an issue for guys to wear what they want, including the feminine things. Here in Oregon in an unrelated trend, i remember hearing people say 10 yrs ago that business would always be the realm of the suit for males. Now you are very hard pressed to see suits in any business meeting, not kidding any. Maybe in a court of law, but i have been to banking meetings, international business events, product planning sessions, meetings with government agencies etc. Never see a suit anymore.

    In the tech industries i work in the CEO and CFOs wear jeans to work every day.

    Has anyone had conversations with new stranger a female customers while shopping alone? 

    Be it shoe shopping or clothing while in change room or browsing through the woman's department. 

    Often i keep to myself but at times  i notice females giving me that look of despise shopping in their area. Once they give me a full scan head to toe, depending what i'm wearing that day.  They figure either i'm shopping for myself or for a female friend. Often then not they are annoyed or disturbed the clothes i'm looking for are for me. Thus they feel creeped out, mind you they may think i'm pretending to shop as an excuse all awhile trying to hit on them. 

    Any conversations you may like to share about shopping alongside females you never seen or tallked to before be it positive oe not.

    I personally have seen very little of that and i shop a lot. I have had a few passing conversations with customers. " Nice weather" "Those are really cute boots" etc. 

    As far as disapproving women, very rarely. Most ignore me, notice me but then ignore me. Once in a while i get a scowl or a look of disbelief from mainly older women. Younger women and teens i sometimes get smiles or looks of embarrassment. I've never heard anyone huff and puff at me. There have been a few instances of jerkish guys usually waiting for their wives to shop being a bit more bold about the looks and tsk tsk sounds, but again not very often.

    As i have dressed overall more feminine even all of this has become less. People either see me as a genetic woman or just figure " yeah its a trans person, so what" and go on with their day.

    Caitlyn/Bruce Jenner? if not a guy what is he?


    He is still a male, I don't care how many parts you add or remove. The scary part is he does make a fair looking woman for his age. Considering he is 60+ years old he/she does not look too bad at all, but then if I had the money to hire the best make up artists and clothing designers I might even look good in a dress.

    I respectfully suggest you read up on Transgender people. The Wikipedia article out there is pretty good. Calling someone is  transgender, the wrong gender can be pretty hurtful to them. Now i doubt she is here but as a MTF trans woman it would be hurtful to me, so i have some sympathy.  I'm at the point where i am getting "sir" about 25% of the time, and ma'am the rest. The 25% still sucks take my word for it. 

    If i recall correctly the profile for this site asked " your gender at birth " which i answered truthfully as male. I am not a guy i can assure you.  Its not being politically correct its just being kind and it's not that hard either.

    Genetically she may have been more born male but genetics do not constitute someone's gender. They get to choose that. Gender is identity - you are man, woman or some other non-binary variant (there are many). What the person was biologically at birth is not relevant to what they should be called. Nor is body parts, chromosomes are any of of that. Bruce the guy went away, Caitlyn the woman took his place. 

    What she does with her money to improve her looks is interesting for sure, but if the measure of a woman is how good she looks in a dress, then there would be a lot less women in the world, no matter what chromosomes they possess. People are are a lot more then their looks and their bodies, i don't know her but i can definitely say that is the case for her too.

     

     

  12. Great public feedback. I was wearing modestly heeled (4 inch) booties to a doc's appointment recently, and a guy walking out at the same time as me commented "If i wore those i would be falling all over" I laughed and said, " no you would quickly master it" . He added " well you do a great job". Now i was obviously in full femme dress, but i suspect this guy had thought about wearing heels himself a time or two.

    Great outing. It will get easier and easier and you will find that the negative reactions are far, far fewer than the positive or the non-existent.
