Ooh, that’s good!

Stephanie,
That’s exactly what was going through my head. I think coming to the understanding of what others experience is something that makes us better humans.-Natalie.

Valarie,
That’s the thing, I couldn’t say he looked much like a runner… Though I didn’t get a great look at him.
Hey, when you have good legs you have to own it!

Aurora,
That’s a fair point and something I hadn’t thought about.
There is an 5’ parkway strip between the sidewalk where I was running and the curb where he was stretching. Is that close enough to warrant a few steps back? Seems like a reasonable buffer to me.

Having a handful of canned responses or quips could pose useful.

Karla,
You’re right. If he did comment on my less than bodacious bottom I would first, be very confused then immediately alarmed.

Harriet,
I know that feeling in drab mode. Since adolescence I have always had a bit of a bust and since adulthood almost always hover around a B, even at my leanest I’ll still be an A.
I constantly catch people staring at my chest. It’s annoying, and is something so never get used to…

Vecca,
I was working on my form and speed. I’m typically a lazy jogger, but have been attempting to me mindful of engaging my core. Maybe all my hard work is starting to pay off!

Madeline,
Truthfully, not that I can recall. I’ve always been more respectful of women in regard to verbal interactions. While I may admire their clothes, shoes, hair and figure I typically do so at a distance. I am a shy person with strangers and generally try not to cause a scene.
Now, on the off chance that I comment on a stranger’s clo…[Read more]

That’s good advice, Lauren. Though it will take some practice on my part to consider the simple answers. My mind often has a complex way of seeing the world. I can only assume it’s my natural response to contemplate things I don’t fully understand.
Interestingly, I shared this experience with my SO this morning. Their initial response was,…[Read more]

My wife, kids (10 and 7), and my brother know and are supportive.
I currently have no plans to tell my parents. I have a tendency to upset my mother with whatever I say or do, so coming out as gender variant (CD/Trans/GNC) would likely get s similar response. I think my father would be more willing to listen and accept, but maybe not…[Read more]

Oh my god, Celeste! Your heart must have jumped out of your chest being pulled up on!
I had the same euphoric high once my heart rate returned to normal and I thought about the compliment again after submitting the post. At this point I can only hope that the next time someone calls out at me whirl I’m dressed it will result in a similar e…[Read more]

Thanks, Lea.
You’re absolutely right! There’s no way I could ever know what they’re truly thinking. However, I am very self conscious of my body for several reasons and was very surprised to have anyone shoot me a passive compliment.
I’ll have to look forward to the next one!

You bring up some very good points, Sarah.
I guess it wasn’t a catcall, but the act of being complimented while I was exercising was awkward for me. Yes, being polite and acknowledging the compliment as face value is the easiest thing to do. I attempted to feminize my voice when huffing out a soft “Thank You”, I hope he appreciated the effor…[Read more]

Thanks, Aurora!
The initial surprise has worn off and reality is setting in. He seemed like a nice man.

Lauren,
Without question most everyone likes to be complimented, but being called “Hot!” is next level. You must have really enjoyed that!!
Being able to share in complimenting women is something most of us probably reserve for friends, family, acquaintances and co-workers due to the level of familiarity. At least that’s the case for me.

Thanks, Tiny!
I’ve decided I will take the call at face value, and take it as a compliment.

Marg,
It really did seem like an innocent comment. Though calling it a “Hand fisted” really sums it up.
When I was in a club in Palm Springs last weekend I got several compliments. Most came from gg’s, but also from a few men. They were all very nice and non-threatening. That left me with a great feeling!
I have complimented women on their…[Read more]

Thanks for the vote of confidence, Bianca! I will chalk it up as a compliment.
In retrospect I did not pick up a sleazy tone through my headphones. It was the couple steps back that took me by surprise. Doing so either allowed him to get a better look at me, or he was creating greater distance to seem less threatening with his comment.
