A while ago, one of the ladies at work invited me to her daughters 18th birthday, costume party. She wasn't sure about the theme and when I suggested a celebrity or character of the opposite gender starting with b, she went for it and yes, she does know about Melissa.
I didn't really know how extensive to go with it but I eventually decided on a Britney Spears, schoolgirl costume from the "Hit me baby one more time" era.
I compiled a costume of wig, white blouse, black skirt, stockings, heels and minimal makeup and went.
Nervousness was setting in so I texted the hostess to say I was nervous and she came out to see and I got out of the car and when she saw my costume, she said she wanted her daughter to be introduced to "Britney" and so we did that (her daughters name starts with b, hence the theme. There was shock but immediate acceptance and in the nicest possible way, nobody gave a shit or treated me any different really despite being in full drag. Others made a token effort but I was the only one really in costume except for the hostess
The 18yr old wanted to have some photos with me and she wasn't sure how to pose and so I said "snap my bra strap" and she said "where is it?" and I said "Well where do you think it is?"......She must have been in shock
I was wearing my breastforms and when it happened to come up and the hostess felt the need to grope me (I didn't mind), she then got about 5-6 of the 18-20yr old women there to do it too and they were shocked at my forms and were fixated on them throughout the night.
The youngest of the kids, a 14 year old boy was a little confused I guess and I teased him that he found me cute dressed like that and he wanted to look up my skirt but in reality, he didn't really treat me any differently.
I was asked to the 20yr old other daughters next party in march and its a costume party too with a heroes and villains theme and she was trying to come up with female characters for me to come as.
Prior to tonight, only one person (who knows boy me and is not in the transgendered world) met Melissa and now I can add about a dozen or so people all up and in this particular instance (in the nicest possible way), nobody gave a shit how I was dressed and nobody treated me any different and I guess you cant ask for more than that
