While I have not been here for a while ... I have still and do dress up in my spare time. I have met and talked to another Crossdresser to which was nice in the beginning but later on I found out how they tried to persuade my thoughts feeling and or what I should think. The debate came up from their side as I gave my honest opinion which was not good enough. The topic that came up was or was asked to me is when is a transgender person not considered a transgender after they had surgery or after the driver license has changed either male or female or are they considered transgendered... I gave my answer that it is up to each individuals to decide and not up to any one else or even their thoughts. This other person got very Irate at me for not taking their side and ruined a friendship as I will not be told how or what to think. Every one has a story and other thing in their lives that you do not know about. I feel like I did the right thing and told this other person I did not want to be bothered with them any more as I accept people as they appear to me. Male or female I will address them as such. In the end this person told me they will call out people as they see or hear them...
I am amazed and shocked that some people are like this which is few and far between. Even though I rid myself of a so called friend I also rid myself of other stress in life. I really admire those of you on here who have made and bonded in great friendship and support of each other.
I do not want to turn this into a debate or anything but just to let out some stress that was built up from an outside source.
On a side note I did manage to get to Pennington quite a few times to get some bras and skirts and shoes. The SA's always ask when I will be in next time and what is new and everything else. Funny thing was last time I was in there they helped me find a nice pair of heels and I wore them back to the store the last time in jeans ect ect. Another shopper was in there and she even commented that I had heels on and I said yes your right!!! they feel great and very comfortable.... The woman even tried the same style heels on and bought a pair!!! The woman said she did not realize I had heels on until she actually saw my exposed toes and hearing the click clack on the floor. We spent an hour shopping around and even both tried on a few tops.... made shopping more comfortable and the OMG this is scary feeling is gone.... Guess you can say it is confidence.... Be well every one take care. Steph
Opinions are like noses - everyone has one, and they're all different to a greater or lesser degree.
I absolutely love it when a lady shopper makes a nice comment about something I'm trying on - it really makes my day.
Last time I went shopping, I went with a CD friend who I met at a support group.
We both tried on a variety of dresses, wandering around the shop to find the best mirror.
We both had lots of lovely comments and helpful hints about what to wear with it, what make-up would look nice, etc.
Some even untwisted straps that we hadn't realised were twisted - I had a genuine thrill from so much acceptance - a feeling of ecstatic love for all women!
The very few men I saw, dragging behind their wives, just as I have done, maintained stony looks - frozen features, trying to give nothing away, but most betraying an air of slightly puzzled amusement.
I don't think clothes shopping can ever get old - so many fabulous outfits, dresses and looks to try!
Have fun and be beautiful.
Love Laura
