    Normally, as a man, then I get treated as such. So if I present myself as Melanie, a woman, then...? Seems pretty self evident to me.

    Now if a guy is dressed in womens clothes but not presenting themselves as such- in terms of their name, mannerisms, overall gender identity, then you would treat them as a man.

    There is a difference between a man dressing as a woman vs a man identifying themselves and presenting as a woman.

    If I am dressed as a lady, presenting as a lady, and acting as a lady, then treat me as a lady.

    Simple. I want to be treated as a lady, with courtesy and respect. In return, I will treat you with courtesy and respect as well.

    Any money found in the laundry is MINE!

    Chivalry is not dead! Treat me as a cultured refined woman. I'll try to act like one.

    If out at a crowded mall, grocery, etc. Just smile, say hello at the most and let me keep on doing my thing. Generally I am trying to blend in and not get noticed as being a CD/TV when out in public.

    But I'm just a B- at that, too much chatting with my deep voice, or creating a scene where people start to notice my full coverage makeup, wig, hmmm pretty damn tall.....well the gig is up and they read me and I hate being a side-show. Well sometimes I am just a wild Tgirl and don't care, but i pick my battles and venues for that act.

    At da club, come up say hi and we will have a nice chat! LOL

    This is how

    As a gentleman admirer who loves this lifestyle and who has enjoyed the company of many CD friends over the years, I have learned that respect and honesty are very important. I treat people as a whole with the same treatment that I want to be treated with. When it comes to CDs, especially those that are deeper into the CD lifestyle, it is usually on the level of a man entertaining and respecting a natural women. I enjoy making my CD friends feel the experience of being a women. In most cases, I have been told that after a date or a meeting, my friends always tell me that they never felt as feminine as I had made them feel. Thats how you make CDs feel.

    And I am generally in the former category. (Does that make me a trans-former?)

    Wow Deidra you are a very beautiful woman. Look like a classy MILF. I appreciate the help you ladies have given me. I understand some of you are sensitive about these issues and I truly understand as society does not accept CDs too well.

    Since I live as and present as a woman, I always want to be treated as a beautiful lady (whether you think so or not!), and yes, I DO like guys to open doors for me and do other sweet things, and I eat up compliments like candy.

    Yes, I agree with everyone else. When I'm dressed and trying my best to present as a woman, cut me some slack, even if I don't "cut the mustard" ... please, I would very much like it if you still treat me as you would any other genetic woman.

    *giggles* I don't think you're all alone with this. Myself(also living as a girl full time), I love the feeling as well.

    Though I do admit that the "compliments" can be rather creepy sometimes like when a customer calls you honey.

    Like a queen ( regal, not gay slang )
    How would you treat a GG? That's what to think of when out with us or meeting us.

    HI..
    Well i m just a woman & i dress accordingly except when i m working in the building or doing related work . that s part of my background . & even now i still swing a hammer . so i still get the respect as a woman . & i can still pull rank .

    As a woman i belong to a number of groups . & i am treated as any other woman . i have no problems at all . & even where we live we have a hard core group of guys & even they treat me as a woman . & they if it was needed would stand no rubbish from those who were inclined to treat me other wise .
    So yes i have respect for who i am ....
    For a guy some times you will find we as women do think differently . & do things differently . thats how we are wired . & what i would like to see is that we can walk down any street go any where . & not have to look over our shoulders to check. if some one is following us with intent of doing some thing to us .
    That. is part of the respect we would like to see . & out alone at night ...
    To open doors & say hi is nice . To have trust that you guys will not molest us would be so much nicer .

    That is the respect we would like . so really this is to all men . not just those we know .

    Well as for me. Since I'm not out. I'd say that if I were, that I'd want to be treated like everybody else. Make no difference with me or anyother woman or man you would encounter.. I'd just be happy to get to go out dressed....
    No, those are my Panties]

    Unless they're bi, and bi as in more interested in men than women, then no, it's one of the worst things you could do (at least in my opinion).

    Treat us like ladies, that is how we dressed.
    Put a little lipstick on you'll feel better

    Perhaps it might depend on the CDs perspective. If the CD views himself as a man in womens clothes, it's probably going to be awkward to be treated as femme. If, on the other hand, she is femme when dresed then she should be accorded the courtesies of a woman.

    Oh, Karen, that's why I always carry personal protection when out in femme, and I don't mean condoms.
