Female friend wants to go shopping with me!

[jessidresser]

One of my female neighbors one day was wearing leggings with a cute skirt and i just asked if her pants were leggings. She said yes and was interested in knowing why i asked. I said i used to be a tranny. She said ok, cool. Today i was outside on a bench resting and she was walking her dog and said when am i going to dress up again! I said i don't have enough clothes. She said we should go shopping and then you can dress up for me! Wow, it's about time! So we had a nice discussion and she wants to be friends and be occasional girlfriends. I'm glad i live next door to a Goodwill!
I need some Ca$h!! :-)

Not too keen on the term tranny. Hope things work out with your new friend.

[Ashley Lyn]

that would be an interesting scenario.. but be careful!!

[mikiSJ]

We kinda, don't wanna use the term tranny anymore.

Like the other girls said, be careful. And at 59, get up to speed!

[Leslie Langford]

what do you mean "used to be"?

We all know that once a crossdresser, always a crossdresser. These is no "On/Off" switch, purging is futile and ineffective, and the need to dress up may be dormant from time to time but it never goes away completely...

Jessi I hope you have a lot fun with your neighbor. I know how the feeling about dressing goes up and down. Myself with DADT wife I am really limited for what I can do. However I do hope you get to know her and really have a lot of fun!

[mechamoose]

Take advantage of the offer.

She is apparently on sees the "vibe" you give.

Be very careful if she's married or otherwise attached.

If not, have fun!

I said i used to be a tranny.
I don't love the "tranny" word, especially in print, but in this case it was used conversationally. Jessidresser might have been nervous. How do we know how the term was used, or with what tone of voice or inflection was used?

[MssHyde]

Lucky you! if shes married stay away, if your married stay away, if your both free enjoy the moment.. I understand why you said used to be a tranny.. you were feeling out her feeings and wanted to know where she was coming from..

the tranny word does not offend me, but in my world is a transmission.. (with out pictures it didn't happen,, teasing)

Having a female friend who enjoys your cd lifestyle is a super experience . Have fun . Much peace, mel

[Beverley Sims]

To improve the above scenaro, you both need to be free of any encumbrances, such as a wife or husband.

Hi Jessi, Give us a little more information about you and your friend.
It sounds like it could go either way.

[Chickhe]

I think the day you stop being worried about what people think is the day people come asking to be around you. Glad you made a new friend.

[Adriana Moretti]

yes...they took the word " tranny" out of the crossdressers rulebook a few issues back.....going shopping with a gal pal is great fun!

[Dana does shopping]

Agree Wholeheartedly

My guess is that "used to be" was simply used to break the ice and get a feel for the neighbor's acceptance level without admitting it is something that is still done. If the neighbor had replied "good thing you don't do that anymore", it would have been easy to laugh about past youthful indiscretions or some such excuse without drawing the hate out of the neighbor. True that we all hate to lie, and we want everyone to be accepting and open minded, but the reality is far from the ideal. Sometimes we need to say things to maintain safety and well being.

Sometimes I wonder why things are picked apart ,,like the meaning of words or actions. I know I have said things like that, but I did not mean it in the other context.
It nice to have an understanding friends and yes someone should be careful , It seems she has an interest or she would not have asked ,,motive ? How tall do we build our walls ? Well I would go ,just making sure it was in a public place , who knows unless you try . Not everyone is a gremlin or sexfeen . I hope you have a good time no matter what you decide.
Just say Hey ! Trinity Sue
