Do you ever get treated like you are weaker than you are when dressed en femme. I am dressed en femme most of the time and find that more and more, people (male and female alike) want to carry things for me like dressing has somehow made me lose muscle mass and I am incapable of exerting physical force on my own behalf.
Yes. And in some cases is old fashioned chivalry. Or just people being helpful. They would likely not offer help to a guy because most would tend to be offended, like if accepting help was diminishing their manliness.
Go figure!
I am always willing to help someone who I see struggling, but I always ask first.
If it is a male I ask because I don’t want to make them feel weak or incapable. I know in male mode I can be more than a little prideful.
If it is a female I ask because I know what vulnerability feels like and I would want her to feel safe before I jumped in and just helped.
I had a encounter when dressed. I was driving a 1 ton truck pulling a 36 foot trailer hauling a skid steer to the cabin. I needed food for a few days so I stopped for groceries. I guy with a flat plugged up the exit. No problem use a different exit. It was plugged by two delivery trucks. I had no where to go. I had a thought. Move the barricade the shoping carts and the cart rack. I got out and three different men rushed to my aid and did it all for me. I passed the obstruction and went to help put everything back in place.They wouldn’t allow it. One of them said I was dressed and looked to good to help. They were all surprised my husband would let me drive such a large rig. If I was a man I am sure nobody would have helped. I was scared poopless but in the end it was a awesome experience.
HI Michelle, My wife commented to me on your story, and photo. She said you have a beautiful face, and understands how you got that help from the men
What a boost to your self worth, and you must of bern on cloud nine.
Great to read about your adventures. You are living life and enjoying being Michelle.

HI tina, I have not had other people offer to help me, but sometimes a knowing smile from a woman, a nod to say well done. That is very rare but attitudes are changing all over the world, and My workplace has accrpted that I am a crossdresser.maybe some day I will get yhis help.
Live your life Tina, enjoy.

JaneThis happens to me quite a bit, but I’m also a relatively small built man… well, I think average, but whatever. LOL.
One of the best most memorable was at the grocery store where they still have baggers. I was sitting there at the checkout and noticed the four young men standing at the end ready to bag and help me out to my car. The cashier laughed at them, said “BOYS, she already said she didn’t need help out to her car…”
They still all stood around sheepishly, embarrassed looking actually, but I DID oblige and pointed to one and said, “Fine, you can help me.”. He jumped up, looked at his peers, and let out a “YASSSSSS!”.
Anyhow, cashier turned to me and was like, well, you totally made his day. LOL!

Love that story
I have had ,on rare occasions,men hold the door to the store for me and I always thank them in a soft voice.I have caught the knowing ,although friendly,look from women when I, as Michelle ,am dress or shoe shopping.Its fun and can lead to some very interesting conversations in which we crossdressers can help strangers on why we do crossdress.
Enjoy it, Tina. It’s all part of being treated like a lady.
