So I have been more brazen recently. While out a few days ago with my wife, I was obviously wearing womens clothes head to toe, also had the purse I bought from my wifes Thirtyone business. It was nice to be out dressed the way I was. I had no makeup or wig on.
Today I was again shopping and out and about wearing skinny jeans, paisley top, and cute sandals. I again did not have a wig or makeup but was wearing a bra. I got some looks today. I live in rurals ville so I expect looks. But I don't care. I know I may look silly but you know what? There are women everyday who wear short hair and no make-up. I know I am rambling and no one cares but I just needed to write it down. Today was a great day out. I then threw ball with my one pf my kids, my immediate family all know I wear women's clothes so I don't hide who I am from my kids. This is me. I don't wear wigs or dresses around my wife and kids.
Sounds completely legit to me. I can dig the look. I also totally get the lack of concern for the opinions of passersby. I guess it was last week, I went with my wife for our pedi, I wore obviously female Jean short shorts, a bright color Columbia top, no makeup since right after that I was going to see my dermatologist, no wig, presenting largely male, but all shaved, and wore 2 inch heeled flip flops, showing off my newly painted toenails (magenta with large metal flake, since you so kindly asked). In between the salon and the doctors office we went to the store for I don't remember what. I've no doubt a number of peeps looked, but as I didn't care i also didn't notice. I felt so genuinely happy that day, and so very comfortable in my skin, it was just a wonderful day, and that sounds like the day you had! So good for you!

Emily...
Firstly, good for you. Being brave and accepting yourself and wearing what makes YOU feel good....is what this site is all about. Telling our life stories is what boosts and gives confidence to others on here.
Secondly, this is cdh.....EVERYONE here cares.....
Best wishes, grace x
I feel most comfortable when I am out shopping wearing a peasant blouse, maxi skirt and sandals. Of course my wig and less jewelry than a gypsy fortune teller.
I like to be comfortable when I am shopping, and yes, I do get some looks from people, and not nearly as many negative comments as in the past. I do feel that I have achieved some measure of acceptance from strangers when 1 or 2 women out of group will give me a smile or wink, even an occasional thumbs up.

Emily, good for you for being yourself! I'm slowly starting to normalize pushing my feminine side out in public a little bit more. I've worn jeggings out shopping a couple times now, and guess what, nobody cares. And I'm starting to feel like, if they did give me funny looks, I don't care anyway. I really, really want to get used to wearing short shorts around others, because I love wearing them and seeing my legs with them on. But, I haven't gotten past walking trails at the park, and one time into Starbucks in them yet. So, I'm slowly progressing toward being comfortable out in a look that brings me joy.
