I was saddened greatly when I'd heard, and I did attend Mardi's funeral. It was a little strange to have about a half dozen of us, a couple that I've never seen in drab before then.

As for me,...

Tracks is friendly. I know some of us also hit Milk from time to time. Black Crown is a nice piano bar that we haven't had any issues with.

Santa Fe Tavern, on the other hand, we essentially got...

We've got some clubs here in Denver that do "18 and up" events somewhat regularly, and just mark the underaged with Xs on both hands in bold permanent marker. So it's actually not unsurprising that...

I'm out to everyone except extended family (aunts and uncles), and my workplace, and thus far, no real regrets. I don't have to lie to people about who I'm spending time with, or how I'm spending it,...

For me, it's partly work reasons, and partly that I don't feel the overreaching desire to dress every day. Like most everyone, much of the time I prefer to just throw just any old thing on.

I've taken steps myself to ensure that I'm not 'keeping the secret' of myself from anyone that matters. The only place I'm not is at work.

Much of this, though, is disliking lying to people about...

With that brought up, I'll admit, I actually don't like going out alone myself, in either mode. I'll stop by the thrifts, and occasionally hit some fast food (typically for carry out), but for clubs,...

That was how I discovered I'm a clothes horse/*****. :)

It's infinitely cheaper to discover it there than in real life, I'll agree.

I will freely admit that I spent some time myself in a few questionable chat rooms, and entirely too much time in Second Life, to the point I was practically living there when I wasn't at work.

Well, I handled it by being bluntly honest with my friends. "Why'd you shave off the goatee?" "Because I'm going to start crossdressing." "Oh. OK." But I also realize that my approach is not for...

I've never actually had a problem using my male ID to get into places en femme. Nor my male credit card. I blend, but I can't necessarily say that I 'pass' up close.

And yes, I do go to clubs with...

My parents know, but haven't yet gotten to the point where they can see me as Lynn. My brother knows and has seen, as has his girlfriend and her two kids.

I can recall getting called "ma'am" twice. The first was picking up a sweater dress from a store after work. Male mode. Hadn't shaved since the morning. "I can help you over here ma'am... oh, I'm...

I've not had problems driving in high heels. You just have to be prepared to adjust your posture a little bit, as well as position on the pedals.

My parents stopped making nearly the noise about it once I donated a whole 12" last year for cancer wigs. One of my aunts made some noise recently when she saw a photo of me.

Oddly, I don't get...

I only go occasionally to see drag shows... I have many more fun places I can go anyway that don't involve hanging around people looking to slug back expensive alcohol all night. :)

I do use my own hair... and people who have known me for years have trouble recognizing me en femme. One I showed a photo, and I had to actually tell her 'that's me'. Another of my friends had to...

I have only two things I do with regard to my CDing. The first is that I will not go to a friend's home 'en femme' without making sure that it's OK to do so. The second is, for my friends with...

I actually haven't done more than the 'post donation' bob look in terms of getting a more permanent girl style with my hair, although I have had someone give me an 'updo' for one of the banquets. I...

A skirt with some sort of volume should do wonders. It shouldn't matter if the material merely has some body in terms of an a-line skirt, or if it's a pleated skirt, as long as it stands off the body...

I've been using my own hair since I started... there's actually people who still don't recognize me in 'comfort' mode right off, who have known me for years and seen my hair down.

I wouldn't say "too" comfortable... although I've eaten at a place or two I was already known in the "other" mode without putting much thought into it.

Failing that, there's a group that meets at the Gender Identity Center (http://www.gicofcolo.org/) every First Friday evening. We usually go out for dinner afterwards.

True. But it's also possible that an official would say 'bad idea' if there's no explicit law on the books saying it's okay. If only because there's no protection for one of us if someone else takes...

I think I did this twice when I was still flipping between wallets... now I just drop my male wallet into my purse instead. No one's commented about it when I've pulled it out to get cash, and I no...
