Great analogy. That's exactly how it felt. Fly or fall.

I chose a female name mostly for some semblance of anonymity. But when I'm dressed, I don't really think of myself as any name at all. Just a female. I've never really used my female name with...

I don't remember how old I was. Maybe 7 or 8. After a wedding, just for fun, my female cousins all dressed me up in their various girls' clothes, heels, and makeup. I never looked back after that.

Thanks, gals! I think that one night really moved things forward. I'm back home now and already went on a couple adventures in LA where I know I'm safe but can still enjoy being my fem self.

I've been trying to build up courage for a while. But as it turns out the circumstances often provide the courage for you.

I haven't really dressed in front of anyone other than my SO. I've been...

It was my last night in town. Hopefully the next time I'm in that city I'm many steps ahead and answering in a dress is just the norm. =)

But speaking of it being strange, I'm guessing answering...

Well, I almost had the guts to speak to someone dressed up, but bailed out last minute. I was in Las Vegas for a conference and I ordered room service. I got dressed in a LBD and sexy black heels...

Thanks for sharing April! That's amazing!

Let's hope this is just the first day of so many firsts. I still have new firsts all the time and cherish each and every one.

Catfish, you most definitely will. For me it's been nothing but one baby step after another. And the rush with each step is amazing!

Congrats, Bonni! Sounds like there will be many many more drives to come!

He_wears_hers, one of my first drives a long time ago was just the same as yours. I'll never forget, long sweatshirt,...

For me, it was eye shadow. I was out to get food and run some errands after dressing at home all day. When I stopped at drive-thru and caught a glimpse in the rear-view, I was surprised to see how...

For me the second option basically sums it up. Don't want to be caught, but want to go right to the edge of that. That's led to getting caught a few times (stories for another day), but even then...

Just enough pink to advertise... but still very subtle and classy.

Thanks for sharing! Sounds like you could use more Daphne days.

That's awesome!

I'm somewhere in the 3-4 range. Moving up slowly I think. Drive dressed sometimes, and been caught a few times out and about, but usually it's just in the privacy of home.

1. Hasn't happened.
2. The same.
3. NA
4. I don't really see the appeal of matching either. Individuality is an important part of being a CD, so I'm not sure I understand wanting to match....

I always thought Aliyah was a beautiful name. When I looked into the mirror, it just instantly clicked. Didn't need a second thought.
