As I was having a day at home I decided to dress in my tights, A line skirt, top, make up and sandals to show off my painted toenails. All dressed I heard a woman calling the name of our dog, it was may neighbour which meant that the dog was out of the garden, no time to change so I made my first public entrance dressed. We eventually found the dog having walked round the nearby estate, my neighbour knows I'm trans and no one else noticed. When my neighbour first saw me she wondered what this crazy woman was doing out in sandals on a cold morning but finally recognised me.
I do wonder if us closeted people worry too much about the reaction we might get from others.
Great story! Thanks for sharing it. I agree, worry too much about getting caught and what others might think. I have been out dressed more times than I can count in many different places and events. I have never been confronted by anyone in a negative way. Once the initial nervousness of being out goes away, you can relax and have fun. People are most often so wrapped up in their own lives that they don’t even take the time to notice other people, let alone what someone might be wearing.
When I decided to stop hiding away, my neighbour called round to ask if we'd mind taking in a parcel she was expecting. I opened the door as Cerys. It was the first time she had seen me in Cerys mode. "Oh, you look nice," she said, "are you going somewhere?" I explained that it was as crossdresser and that I no longer wanted to hide away. Her response was "Good for you!'. It hasn't changed a thing between us. My neighbours the other side are Muslim. They were amazing about it. The wife's father is in his 70s, a real old Cardiff Muslim. When he first saw me he didn't mention it. I eventually asked him if he had any questions. His answer "It's all good by my. Your a good person, c that's all that matters. If anyone says anything against it Fk 'em!". The man is a legend. So matter of fact. All my neighbours have now met Cerys. Neither of them have an issue. I possibly live as Cerys these days. Never a problem. I've said many times on this forum that the secret hooks the power. When it stops being a secret, it had no power. Life is so much less stressful now I have nothing to hide.
Cerys.
Hope everything went alright with your neighbor. As for going out it would not bother me a bit what anybody else thought. If they want to talk I wouldn't have a problem with that for I'm not ashamed for who I am.

ladies - many thanks for your replies and of course you are all correct in that it doesn't matter, I just need to readjust my thinking, I'll get there soon

It can be quite understood why some would be in fear at being caught but in a lot of cases such as those above it can be a surprising and positive one. I love Cerys analysis in that a secret holds power and once out it's gone, you are in control. Wise thoughts.
I live 24/7 and have been out in public at least 500 times and have never had a problem.
