Catherine,
I can understand your being nervous. In particular if it has been some time since the previous time you were out.
But Jules reply is awesome! Really great take on how different it is the concepts of “passing” and “being accepted”, even without having to mention them by name!
If your goal is passing you are basically hoping your “transformation” is good enough to fool others into believing you are a woman. You will have to put effort at staying in character, and even if you believe you succeeded, chances are that some of the people who saw you knew, but didn’t care about making a scene.
Even if you ask women who are very supportive of the community, 100% passing, look, voice, mannerisms, is very rare.
So do your best to present nicely, but be yourself! It is much more rewarding!! Believe me!! 🙂 🙂
