    Outing en femme to an unlikely place

    In the last couple of months my cross dressing has progressed to going out in public fully en femme. Each time I have been accompanied by my wife Marla and we have done it several times now. First we went wig shopping, then to JC Penney in the mall, next was a trip to the movies, and the last outing was going clubbing at a local TG/Gay bar. Each time we have done this we have told our story and posted pictures.

    Our latest outing was not to anywhere special but for me it was one of the places I had (for some reason) kind of feared going to. We went to Wal-Mart!

    I got off work early on Friday, so we had the opportunity to go shopping. We decided not to go to our nearest one (that we always go to) but one that was a few miles further away. I don’t know what it is about Wal-Mart, but I get the distinct feeling that some of the people that shop there would beat me up right there in the store if they found out I was a guy. Do you know what I mean? Am I being a snob?

    As we pulled up into the parking lot I noticed that there were people going in, and coming out of the store. I always get nervous just as I get out the car. Somehow I feel safe when I am cocooned inside. Marla was (as always) being very loving and reassuring, telling me that no one is going to notice, least of all say anything, and that I should relax and enjoy myself.

    As we walked into the store the greeter said hello and welcomed us to Wal-Mart. I smiled and acknowledged her. She didn’t seem to suspect anything. We headed for the section that had all the hair accessories because I wanted a new comb and vent brush for my wig. Marla waited until the coast was clear and then took this picture.



    Next we went to the lingerie section and just browsed for a little while, then went over to the clearance section to see if there were any bargains. Neither of us generally buy our clothes at Wal-Mart but sometimes they have some reasonable casual clothes at very good prices. Marla took another picture when no one was looking.



    We didn’t buy anything except a few boring household supplies and the hair brush and comb that I wanted. However, I got something much more valuable out of it. I feel like I entered the “lion’s den” and survived. I don’t know why, but I was thinking that if I was going to get read anywhere it would be at Wal-Mart. But no! Another successful outing that I wanted to share with you all.

    Smile Getting better all 'th time

    Well 'I have to say it's getting better all 'th time for you lov, first a movie then clubbing and now going to wal-mart. Things are certainly looking up for you and Marla going out dressed femm if no one read you there 'th chances of being read getting more and more slim each time you got out dressed. I am very please to hear that things are going very well indeed.I am still looking for a wig but haven't been able to find 'th right one for me yet but still looking and hopefully i will find one soon so i can start going out again dressed femm.
    good luck angel (and keep us posted)

    Re: Outing en femme to an unlikely place

    If you have good public blend-in ability (which of course, you do), are accompanied by someone reasonable looking (in your case, your wife), are not carrying suspicious items (such as shopping bags, backpacs, etc)...then there shouldn't be any reason for the greeters to give you the evil eye, and not say "howdy, and have a nice day at our frieeeendly establishment!" (or automaton words to that effect)...

    The only ones there who are gonna care would be the dudes operating the high zoom PTZ security cams and the computerized point-to-point tracking quad monitors.

    Most shoppers going in and out are likely not going to notice...unless you both get stuck in some stagnating cash-register line...but then only the people stagnating near you possibly.

    I hate you. And, no, you're not the only one who thinks that about Wal-Mart hehe. I hate going there as a guy, I guess because it's always so crowded and I hate crowds, but I digress. I think Justina's right, as long as you're not doing anything to draw attention to yourself, I don't think anyone would notice, or even care. I know I don't notice nor would I care, but then again, I don't guess I'm your typical shopper.

    Angel,

    You seem to blend in well in everyday situations dressed en femme. You seem content and happy and you are encouraged by a special and very supportive wife.

    You should be very grateful to your wife for allowing your femme side to experience the everyday situations like shopping and going to movies and dining out.

    Wishing you both the best!

    Angel, you look great! Much better than the GG's I saw on my last trip to Wal-Mart

    But I'm not sure if GG is the correct term when referring to Wal-Mart. "Dem wimun in Wal-Mart" seems more appropriate.

    And I'm terrified of getting beat up by them, myself! Especially if they are pushing a cart. I don't want the last words I hear to be "cleanup on aisle five"

    Angel you just keep getting more and more confident and secure in your "femidenity." You're living proof that life goes on after WalMart. Thanks to you and Marla for sharing with us!

    Hello Angel... I know you and Marla are very close. I think she is wonderfull and your very lucky to have her. From talking to you guys off forum, your very attractive as a guy and a lady. I thinks the pic's are wonderful. I think you are passable, stop being so hard on your self. You go out and have fun. I do alot of shopping at Walmart myself, Last night I went there in my Pink sneaks, tan stockings, jean shorts, black cami, and my new headband. Many stopped and looked, some shook their heads, few pointed. But Everyone left me alone to shop. Most don't want to draw attention to them selfs at your expense. Concidering I had no make up on, but did shave... I had a good time. Your so much more passable than I am, Have fun, go out and smile. You'll have more fun when you take a deap breath and just do it.

    I share your concerns about the "Mart"

    I have actually bought many things there for my "girlfriend" I don't yet have the confidence or a "posse" to feel safe shopping en femme but stories like yours fill with more resolve every time I see them!

    Angel, you looked great, quit worrying about being read. You are getting the confidence to pass anywhere, the pictures look great. My only complaint is that you have my shoes on and they LOOK a lot better on you than me . Thanks to you and Marla for posting your adventures. You are one lucky girl.

    Very cool adventure! I consider myself pretty brave and go a lot of places as a fem...but I have to admit Walmart has been too much for me to try. Like you hinted at the crowd is usually of a lower social economic level and I am a bit leary of them. (I'm a snob sue me! ) Ever since I got harrashed at a waffle house I got more careful where I go.

    But heck with me and my silly ideas...congrats to both of you. By the way, you look great in those pics. Very attractive and femmy...they are just snapshots but from what I can tell you have femmy mannerisms and posture nailed!!!

    I admire you two and how much fun you have!

    Hugs

    The pictures Marla takes pretty much sum up the entire thing. You look just like any other woman that decided she needed something at WalMart that day! I wish I had the nerve, and body structure, to do that!

    Keep the stories coming! We love them.

    And Marla, you're becoming quite the photographer! There might be a comfortable living at it somewhere out there for you! Of course, you have a good subject to shoot too!

    Hi Jo_ann,

    Very observant of you! Yes that particular Wal-Mart is a flagship store. It only opened like 3 months ago. As far as Wal-Marts go it could be considered classy I guess.

    To everyone.......

    Thank you so much for being so supportive to me and Marla. We do appreciate all of your feedback. Many have said "keep 'em coming"....the outings that is, and I can assure you that Marla and I have no plans to stop just yet. You wanna know something?.....we couldn't have done this without all of you being so encouraging and posting about your own outings. Some have posted that we are inspiring, well I don't know about that, but thank you so much for such a nice compliment.

    I want to encourage you just as much as you have encouraged us, to take that leap of faith and get out there and enjoy yourselves. Life's too short.

    WalMart

    Angel,
    Great post. Thanks. Enjoy everyone.
    I can manage the parking lot pretty good, its once I get in the store, when the pressure begins. I find myself doing a quick right when I get in the story (which probably gives me away to any security person watching on camera). Go to a comfortable section (cosmetics, pharmacy) where I can gain my composure and get my bearings. Did I tell you the one time I went into WM and used the girls room efem? Unknown to me, when exited the womans loo, there was a team of sercurity personnel waiting outside the door with radios in hand (result of cameras?). I exited very quickly and did a quick right (habit) through shoes and zig zaged through the childrens (go O.J., go!!!), through shoes and then (mentally sprinted) past the check out isles and past the greeter and out the exit door (very fem I am sure!!?). No doubt a swat team would be following me. I even looked up at the security camera's on the top of the buildings to see if they were following my path to my car. I was expecting the local cops to show up any time.
    Well, they didnt get me and I survived and I still go to Wallys World efem as anywhere else (is there anywhere else?). And they do have some great bargins! Us girls have to watch our money!!!
    Love you both; Angel and Marla.
    Stephanie.

    Nice Job

    I buy lots of stuff at Walmart, But since I couldn't pass if the only shopper was Helen Keller I guess I just settle for wearing Under garments(receaves no rath from Tristen) under my uniform

    hi girls--
    i can totally relate to what katie said. i don't pass and don't really try to and i go to wal-mart gender blended all the time. i've been nervous, of course, but never had a problem. i freely shop in the ladies department, lingerie, even shoes (although trying on heels there is the most nerve-wracking for me). i admit to getting a little bit of a kick when i'm read but i've never been bothered. there's a delightfully naughty feeling i get when showing up at the dressing room with my pretty things to try on and getting looked at by the saleslady. One even said to me once, "those are women's, you know..." I was polite and said "Thank-you. I do know. They're adorable and i want to try them on to make sure they fit."
    be yourself. i don't have problems with wal-mart.
