Once on the NY City subway and once in a hotel elevator. The former was a bit scary as I thought I had ditched him and he circled back to find me. I finally got rid of him by sort of pushing him...
Since you are taking a temp position, I assume that you are doing so through an agency. I suspect that protections against discrimination based upon gender would be in place but much, much harder to...
Well, chased at full speed like that, no, but I have had these two experiences: Once while in New York City, I was taking the subway back to Penn Station to catch the NJ transit train. As I was...
Unless you live next to the mall, it is the only way to get to it while dressed :)

I have had to show my ID in most of the places mentioned: Car rental, hotel check-in, TSA, airline check-in, and retail purchase. I have never had a problem. A few times I have had to convince...
Sheila,
Like many who responded, I have traveled a fair amount en femme. I would suggest that if they wish to do a pat down, let them do it in public. They aren't going to lift your skirt and...
If I understand the question, the CDer is out and the GG wants to know why the CDer dresses in private (at home, with or without her there?).
The reason why we crossdress transcends the location. ...
Misty,
The emerging science would suggest a different view than those expressed already (these views are all valid just from different perspective). The long story short goes like this. During in...
Vicki,
You have not indicated where you live and work. Therefore the advise cannot be specific to your situation. If you are in the states, would it do any good to take some time off under FMLA? ...
This is a tough question to answer. Not because I don't receive comments (mainly from the community) that are positive. The most recent from a GG who said that my outfit was perfect.
In...
PacBlue,
I would modify Lara's advise slightly (hope you don't mind Lara):
I have run into very few situations like this. So don't worry about it happening. If you are with your wife,...
Congrats Joann on joining the club. I have only had one TSA agent among dozens not know what to do with the DL looking male and me not. On my last trip, the ticket agent responded to my "I'm...
For those that are interested, the TSA does recognize the needs of transgendered people. Here is there website. It is a good read for all of us who travel.

I just went from New York and St. Louis and back this week. I was fully dressed with forms and considerable hip padding. Both locations wanted to check me out. So I let them do it in public. In...
An Update: I had lunch in the cafeteria toady and the lady was there again. I chickened out and went to the other line which was not open yesterday.
Thinking back to when I last had a heart...
Annabelle,
Great piece expressing our true nature. Thanks.
Famousunknown,
I would suggest that you see a therapist as there appears to be something else that is preventing you from accepting...
Talk to your wife. TCNE is a great group. It is a very calm group of people who share the need to dress. They are very supportive. You can get dressed there with no problems if you need to. I...
I don't work wearing female clothes but maybe this qualifies: I once got my male hair cut while dressed in a skirt and heels. I just went into the mall, asked for a haircut and told them it wasn't...
Noel,
The chances that I would run into someone first en femme and then, less than 24 hours later, en homme in a metropolitan area as large as St Louis is simply mind boggling.
Whether or not...
Well I am on a business trip to St. Louis and I decided to travel pretty. It has been a while since I have been able to do this but it felt great. (I hope to have the time to post more about this...
If it helps, I found mine here in the States by searching the web for a councilor who was working with LGBT groups and then following up on their websites. Before I made an appointment, I emailed...
Jenn,
You are right that there are some good gender therapists in your area. I met one at the Tri-Ess meeting when I lived in Michigan. The leader of the Tri-Ess group was studying for a MSW...
Alice,
I think you know what you need to do. Get out as soon as you can. Hopefully your sister can take over. If it helps, tell your father that you are moving to another city since you cannot...
Angel,
Which would you prefer to do, go to your party or go to the hospital? Driving in a wedding gown is asking for something to happen while you are driving. Many girls have trouble driving in...
Chelsea,
Sounds like fun. How far North are you in NJ? I have gotten "back into the saddle" now that the temperatures are lower. I spent some time at the Garden State plaza twice last week as...
