Just a quick question
Just curious...do you go out? How often, if so?
To keep it simple...
1/ never
2/ one to five times a year
3/ six to twelve times a year
4/ regularly as in more than twelve times a year and/or 24/7
When you do, if you do, is is a quick walk and/or drive alone, or is it with full interaction with the vanilla world?
No judgement intended.
Just interested in seeing how our numbers break down.
Hugs

I never go out. I did several years back, it didn't provide any special thrill for me.
-
Probably in the 6-12 times range (partly because I average about one outing per month, and I don't usually get fully dressed during the summer when it's too hot (no wigs, makeup, breastforms)).
I usually spend a few hours out, shopping, interacting with or at least in amongst the general public. (I almost always get at least one person in the general public asking me directions or something, and I do interact with sales clerks, shop people, waitstaff, and other service personnel when I'm out.)
-
I go out as regularly as I can....more than 12 times a year...but not as much as I would like to. My issue is I ONLY work weekends..and most of my partners in crime are OFF weekends...so for me to hang out...I need to take off work...which sucks, but I do it at least once a month and only work 3 weekends out of the month ..( i know ..i work 6 days a month LOL )
If I could only find a gal who can go out weeknights I would be out every week. Going out alone is boooooorrrriiiinnngggg and Thursday nights in New York are popping too....I am headed in next thursday if any ny gals wanna linky link.
When I do take off ...its either for a big cd event , to date my boy toy....or to go bar hopping and dancing....This thursday is a downtown bar crawl.

Hey Sami,
6-12 times a year, and
it depends upon how much time I have before I have to return home either back in male mode or to clean up before family comes home. If I have more than 3 hours , then I wil venture out in full interaction, but basically fit the venue to match the available time
-
About once a week on average, or 50+ times a year, split between CD events, hair and nail appointments (in vanilla locations, but with little exposure to the public), and among the masses for shopping or just running errands.
That's just fully-dressed outings, though -- even in drab mode, I usually wear heels, nails, earrings and some makeup.

Just started out n the real world this year and it has been the vanilla world. I have been thinking of going to a club, what is the best night for GiGi's?
-
4/ Regularly, groceries, shopping, theatre, museums, concerts, ....um .... just about everything a gal does!
-
Never, with an asterisk: I had the opportunity to go out once, in a safe environment, and would do so again if I had the chance. Otherwise, being closeted keeps me dressing in private.
-
3 is my answer, but I'd argue that there is a missing distinction between "regularly" and "and/or 24/7" that is important. Maybe along the lines of 3-7 times per month and the "practically 24/7.
-
#3, about 6-8 times a year
-
Like Carrie I went out lots of years ago, but haven't in a long time, but the urge is coming back now to venture out again. At one point I would meet up with fellow CDer's, but have not done that in a year or two. I guess I would be a 1 on your scale.

Sammie,
I'm probably 2, usually a drive somewhere , but I do walk the dog sometimes underdressed but no wig or make up, and then remove drab when safe but have been outed a few times !
-
Definitely a four with partial interaction.
I do choose my moments.
-
A few times. Always to a gay bar with a drag show.
-
4. I am out everywhere except work. I interact with the regular world all of the time. It is possible!

-
So far in the 6 to 12 times a year range.
Full interaction
-
1 for me, I'm still deep in the closet
-
1-2 times a week to mainstream venues to eat and drink and meet new people, and sometimes meet with much older people like Suzanne.
-
Thanks, girls! This is interesting.
Oh, Heather....Saturday night for sure. But dont go to early. Come to the Adams Apple for drinks first. Gigis doesnt really get going till 1030 or 11.
-
Hi Sammie,
Well I would say I a squarely in the response 4 category and when I go out is full on interaction with the vanilla world.

Never. Being outed would make life more complicated, and never in a good way. My life is complicated enough, thank you.
