In her spirit of having fun with me and my cross-dressing, my fiance' suggested we go to a few RenFairs over the next two months, with her as the pirate and me as the wench.
While I really would like to do this I'm pretty much unfamiliar with the whole RenFair culture; my fiance', on the other hand, was incredibly enthusiastic about the idea and suggeted that we do an entire circuit of national events next year.
Obviously, I love the idea of opportunities to spend time with her and being dressed with her support, my only concern is how the faire folk will deal with a patron who is clearly a man (beard and all) dressed as a woman.
I know they market these things heavily as family events, and while the few I've been to in the past have a significant contingent of obvious BDSM folks running around, it's a lot easier to give a child an age appropriate (and likely disingenuous) explanation of why that person has a flogger on their belt then why that man with a beard is dressed as a buxom woman. It's not like I'll blend in with the crowd.
So if any of you have xperience at these events, I'd really appreciate some feedback.
