Among all the fine folks here, who is a dare devil? In the context of dresing in public, who will go out daily in their skirts, heels, and tights, and brightly manicured nails?



There are many who confine dressing to home, or perhaps a dark alley, in the middle of a moonless night. Many, but not all.



The dare devil does not care who sees, and wishes that more were watching.



Fear is not even in the dare devil's vocabulary, not by a long shot. The dare devil seeks observers, and welcomes their stares.



Who, then, will admit to being a dare devil? And how did you come to this?

I've been out in heels in guy mode several times. Never been out in a dress or skirt, but I wear misses/juniors pants every day. I haven't worn men's shoes in a looonng time. I'd say once or twice a week, I wear a very gender neutral misses shirt out.

Sounds like a description of a real "in your face" individual, or drag queen?

I guess I'm what you are referring to as a "dare devil". I'm one that loves attention of others to my legs and rarely would dress down to not showing them off with a skirt, hose and heels. I wouldn't go out daily as it would affect my balance that I keep, but I do mostly go out in the day to anywhere that interests me.
However, my definition of a "dare devil" would be a crossdresser that does take those midnight strolls and/or would dress at home (when the SO does not approve/know).

I have been going out "en femme" with increasing confidence over the last two years as the opportunity has arisen.

I have graduated from sheer terror the first few times to complete comfort and self-assurance now.

I have no problem interacting with SA's when out shopping for my female clothing now, do not hesitate to approach fitting room attendants when I want to try on prospective purchases, and have yet to be turned down.

I have also gotten to the point of purposely going closer to GG's who I feel are eying me suspiciously when I am out in public to let them have a closer look at me, since that is what they seem to want. This show of confidence usually spooks them, and they end up becoming more uncomfortable than how they attempted to make me feel in the first place. I call it poetic justice.

I've been "out" several times shopping for blouses, shoes, etc., and have learned that tolerance has lessened in the years I have been "out". I feel so comfortable now going to the grocery store, getting gas for the car, or joining my GG's for coffee at a local bistro in the afternoon. I am Evie, and Evie is free!!:battingeyelashes:

All the time, getting better and better at it every time, and loving it more and more...can't remember the last time I got read, last week I went clothes shopping, went to a casino, went out for takeout and went out for breakfast, loved every minute of it.

Its been a slow process for me, my first time out I was scared to death and thought the whole world was staring at me. Over the last few years I have become more confident and starting to care alot less what others think. A few weeks ago after the local tri ess meeting a few of us went out to a restaurant for a quick bite. I was not even nervous at all, but did notice a few folks made me and just didnt care.

Going out fully dressed with two GGrls shopping on a Saturday afternoon is hardly being a "Daredevil" but it's about the closest I'll ever get to being one.

Does being a "dare devil" consist of going out as a convincing fem and getting away with it and achieving ones goals. Or is it one who goes out as an obvious guy wearing fem gear or is that a "drag devil"? Or is it a guy who has just the hints of fem about "him" and is just expressing him fem side while in guy mode? Or maybe it is just one who is not interested in CD/TV/TS at all but throws on a wig/dress/makeup as a "dare"?

Or maybe it's just a person who does stupid things that he knows he shouldn't just to show off to his "mates"? (predominantly male friends to those still unfamiliar with our colloquialism's)

Maybe the question should be "who has the courage of their conviction" to present themselves in public regardless of who might pick "him" and hang the consequences?

Not me, I'm happy in the closet. But thanks for asking...... But, if you read many of the threads here, there are a lot of girls here that have the courage you are asking about.

:love:Portia

Just in case you didn't pick it - I'm not big on "dare's :devil:"

I guess it depends on the venue.

For me, I go all out to be seen, and want the pictures taken. There is no stress involved.

Maybe not so much a dare-devil as a devil-may care attitude :)

I just completed a 17 days strait of dressing enfemme, I do not have any fear of being seen in public wearing a dress or skirt. I am enfemme when I am not at work all the time. As far as being a dare devil, that phase has passed now because I have gone out enfemme to most places now, so the boundaries have been stretched far and wide. I have been to wrecking yards, Lowes, Home Depot's, auto auctions, nursing homes, friends homes, many times at walmarts around the country, grocery stores, convenient stores, historical tours, restaurants, casinos, limo rides, dances, travels enfemme all the time, picnics, BBQ's, short walks in the mountains, parts stores, malls, cell phone stores, political rally, movie theatres, and car shows. Next summer I am going to attend my high school reunion enfemme, that will be a new boundary to push for me.

I suppose dare devil likely describes me as I do enjoy the attention sometimes, but not all the time. I've been doing it just over six months and now am dressed from Friday night to Monday morning. Read my blog for how I got there. In short you need confidence and attitute, but one thing's for sure. Its fun!

Been out at all times of day and night dressed 100%, but I always looked mainstream for a middle aged gal. I am starting to feel out my new town to see how far I can go without raising any good ol' boy eyebrows.

Have gone out lots of times in public en femme-- not usually in fetish leather---although once went shopping in a long black leather skirt(mid calf length), red satin blouse and hi heeled boots(well it was winter) all under a black leather trench---a little edgy maybe but not over the top fetishy

I am definately not in the daredevil category. When I do go out I try to just blend in and enjoy the experience. I don't go out of my way to draw attention to myself and generally limit my outings to events where other CD's will be around.

I would say I am shyer when dressed, but dont have many exhibitionist tendencies in drab either.

Like everything new, going out is, at first, a great big dare. After that there is the inner devil to look after us all.

It really depends on what you consider daring. For some, doing life threatening things is the ultimate, like my carving up canyons by routinely dragging the pegs (not to mention my knees) on a superbike where the roads have no guardrails. I have no problem doing things that risk my life, but am terrified of spending the rest of my life in ridicule by being outed. Interesting question, though.

My level of dare devilry has consisted of putting myself in situations where I feel utterly lacking in confidence. Shopping at Home Depot was one, as I knew I'd be asked if I needed some help (which I modestly declined). Another was going to the Metropolitan Museum, NYC, on a Saturday AM when it was crowded--knowing I'd have to use the ladies room sooner or later. Wow! did I misjudge that situation. Yes, I had to go, but so did, it sure seemed, half of the thousand's of other ladies visiting the museum. Stood in long line waiting my turn and barely made it!! In and out as fast as possible; what a relief on multiple fronts. I am slowly convincing myself to go again, taking time to eat lunch in the cafeteria. Goals, goals, goals.

ATTENTION...ATTENTION...ATTENTION...,that is why Cindy goes out that is why Cindy love to dress..... no Cindy dose not like to just blend in she love to stand out, I am looking to get notice not to be just another fly on the wall.

I just love to go out to new places day time, night time I do not care that to me is the biggest rush, is Cindy a daredevil......no but Cindy is a show off.

I started going out dressed only six months ago. The first couple of times was a little scary but I enjoy it emensely now. I do not consider myself a daredevil by any means. To me going out dressed requires confidence and a willingness to be oneself. When I am out dressed I try to blend in and not draw attention to myself. There is nothing daring about this, I am just expressing the feminine side of me. Evil Kineival is a daredevil, I am just me.

I'm not so much a DARE Devil but always pushing my level of comfort, and in doing so I have built up my confidence to where I can go anywhere and everywhere. Yes I love to be seen out, but I also love to fly below the radar, and not be noticed, that is more of a challange. Midnight Mass last X-mas eve at a Catholic Church was pushing my line to the max, but I wanted to attend as Kristen and wanted to be seen, thats why I wore my new Angora Coat with the black Fox collar and cuffs, I looked as good as any woman there. Yes I had to be read by some but not all because during the sign of peace got a big hug from the guy behind me.

Have been out shopping dressed up, nervous as hell, but I did it. Been to the gym with colorful leggings and female blouses and getting more accustomed to it everytime. So yeah I may be a daredevil :battingeyelashes:

I could easily fir in that description! Wearing what I want, when I want and how I want that's pretty much me.
Of course not I am full time so it is quite easy to do what I like! :heehee:

These are some pics from going out clubbing last weekend...
