So, we have all a story regarding the issues with acceptance form SO/OH's.
I have two more (Hopefully) amusing tales regarding my Current and Former SO ( don't worry, no more after this)
Latter first :- So if you have read my previous post, I was with my still lovely lady for 25 years. She knew that I dressed but did not really get involved, that said - she was cool with it or at least tolerated.
Anyway, there were 4 of us couples who decide to go for the weekend at a holiday camp where they had expired 80's bands playing. One of the lads said " Hey we should dress as women" My heart jumped but I never said anything but everyone else said " Great idea, what a laugh". Before you knew it, the girls had already decided of who would do the makeup, wigs, shoes and clothing. Suprise to me they all agreed on the slutty look. I tried not to be too enthusiastic but my gosh - I could not wait and was light in the head with excitement.
So comes the night, dressed to the nines, the girls made a great job at making us passable and I am out as a woman finally ( although unofficially, being not Jillian). I was on cloud nine all night and it was great to feel such a way but tried so hard as to not show how much of a buzz the night was.
The only problem was deciding which rest rooms to use AND we still had to go to the bar all the time as well !
So much for equality eh?
My current SO had never been to Thailand, I have been lucky enough to have travelled to many places around the globe and suggested that she would love it ( she did )
So we are in Koh Samui and of course shopping for her "Genuine Fake" Handbags, we had doing this all night and she was getting good at bartering - so this could take some time.
She sees some more bags in a shop, I said I will wait outside and people watch for a bit. Along come four lovely dressed Lady boys, they say hello and stop to chat. Not sure if they are plying thier trade or not - perhaps just chilling. Anyway they find out which Football team I support and we are all on the street just talking sport. She comes out of the shop and says "what's this?"
I say in my usual joking manner "Its not what it looks like" she laughs out loud and gets the phone out and instruct us all to line up for a photo. Great photo, big smiles. An hour later she has updated her Twitter status with the hilarious post "I leave him for 5 minutes and this is what he gets up to"
So she was all in for me hanging around with the ( let it be said NOBLE ) ladyboys. When it comes to accepting my trying some clothes on and making a mess of my makeup - she's not that sure.
Of course the mistake we make is thinking we are all thinking the same thing. Little steps though xxx

Great story. I have had those moments in the past when the opportunity to dress comes along, especially dressed looking very much a girl. I understand that feeling too.
I would like to have more pleasant interactions with people when dressed. I have had a few with a couple of sales clerks, but they are gone, now. I related my rather unpleasant NYE interaction with somebody who had been drinking, but because I dress subtly, it is either too subtle to get noticed or nothing except stares happen at all.
Great story please dont stop writing them. I was at a Halloween party and one of my friends wives suggested we all do a gender swap party. I got very excited but then The idea was shut down 🙁 bummer ah well . I wish I saw more CDs out there or maybe I just dont notice. Cheers RC
