For the longest time I thought I was imagining it. Whenever I would go out as Sally, I felt as though I was being treated like a celebrity. People I would meet would want to chat me up or make conversation, something I never noticed much as I traversed life in male mode. As a guy, I was mostly invisible to others. I wasn’t shunned or treated badly, it’s just that my interaction with others was routine, mundane even. As Sally though, there hasn’t been a single outing where someone didn’t go out of their way to say hello, or compliment me on my nails, or my outfit. The bottom line, it’s not my imagination.
Allowing myself to be completely objective about the subject, it has become quite obvious that people react differently to Sally than they do to my male persona. I suspect that it is simply a sign of the times. As transgender people have become more visible, I think others find it kind of hip, and they want to interact. Whatever the reason, I have to say that I’m enjoying the attention I’m garnering, and it makes being a public crossdresser so much more fun.
Hugs,
Sally

Could it be that you smile more in femme? I know I am significantly happier, and I suspect people may just be engaging with you more primarily because of that.

Sally : thank you for sharing , I really enjoy storys of others daring the out doors . Hearing from experience girls and their interactions in public. Most of all first timers. There is where I lie. Still anticipating the moment but trying to build the courage and the confinance to do so. Hearing your story makes me feel good knowing society is somewhat becoming tolerable and like many of us here hope it is the sign of the times. When my time comes I hope to interact and be looked at as an equal and not a side act looking for attention. The smile oh’abd yes .my wife really notice this. Since dressing she definitely notices big changes in my demeanor in the smile she says she’s never see more of lately and is happy for it. Yes smiles definitely help when interacting with people.I lost that in male mode but now realize a smile go’s a long way. Only thing is attention, not really looking for but receiving satisfaction knowing that being treated as an equal and respected will definitely put a smile on my face and that’s what I need to open up, be interactive enjoy the freedom being out in about. Just getting over the nerve s then maybe I’ll be ready. Thanks for the read. I one step closer to this happening. 🌹
