    lol we dont know everything.
    When getting married, I didnt know to lift up the front of my layered dress.
    I near broke my neck coming down the stairs to meet my dad.
    I have never worn a full layered dress before, and common sense prevailed.

    And at the ripe ole age of 48. I still have not mastered the art of walking in heels without looking bow legged.
    Yet My Husband can seem to glide along...

    Don’t do anything with your hands like fixing the car or working on motorbikes because you will brake a nicely manicured nail! Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

    Keep everything practical and simple. Like shoes for example most are slip on and off little bending.

    It is not that women already know all of these simple things (i.e., it is not encoded in their DNA), but have learned them through many years of life experience starting in childhood. The same can be said about men. Many late starting cross dressers are like 11-12 year old girls who are in the early stages of learning more about fashion, makeup, hair, deportment, etc.. Mistakes are made and lessons are learned along the way. I have made my share of mistakes - way too many to list.

    Don't wear short skirts when climbing a ladder.

    Be wary if standing on the glass floor of the CNN Tower in Toronto.
    There may be someone down there with binoculars and a telephoto lens.
    Work on your elegance,
    and beauty will follow.

    That is a skill that should not have been learned in the first place! Distractions like that while driving are plain stupid. That behavior is more indicative of lack of planning than skill. I hope no one here talks or texts while driving. I have seen many awful crashes happen due to distracted driving. There is no such thing as an accident. If you can't wait to use your phone, you don't belong behind the controls of a car. Commercial drivers can be fined 2600 dollars for not using a hands free device or texting while driving. I think stiff fines like that also need to be applied to the general population. That, and the appalling lack of sense most drivers exhibit.

    Drive safely and use your eyes and brain when you get behind the wheel. Driving is all you should be concentrating on...

    When going out in stilettos always keep a pair of flats in the car.

    When getting out of a SUV or sports car, the trick is to hold your purse in your lap when you swing your leg out.

    The hardest thing I've ever had to learn was how to walk down the stairs in heels. I look like an epileptic having a seizure!
    If it's easy, it's not worth it.

    Always sit down while using the women's washrooms. It's bathroom etiquette.

    Seeing as how I am about 5'1... Getting out of most SUV's is a problem for me regardless of what I am wearing. Lol. I have "fallen" out of a suv too many times. Lol. So if you feel better, some of us GG's don't even do that right.

    I've noticed when at church or at a band or choir concert, women can sit still. Many guys seem to be fidgeting and jiggling knees, but the ladies are usually very still. Also, women seem to try to take up as little space as possible when sitting on a bench or couch where as guys like to spread out.

    Women LEARN everyting, just like a cross dresser, but they have more time with it so it seems like they "know"

    Yes, all those things are very hard to learn. When my wife and I are out, we usually eat in a restaurant. I often find that when I get up, I tend to swing one leg out first, and have observed that women usually swing out both legs together. When I forget, my wife points it out, and will ask "Are you trying to tell everyone you're open for business?"

    Definitely! And try as I may, I can never get that one.
