For nearly a year now, I've been going out freely en-femme. I don't care any more if my neighbors see me as a girl, and I am comfortable interacting with strangers while en-femme.
More often than not, l get dressed up because I definitely do have someplace to go. To a club to dance, or to a bar or club to listen to live music, or to simply go out and shop, or enjoy dining out. All of the friends I have made as Ceera only know me as a girl, and accept me as such, even if some of them do realize I am trans. Most of my new friends tend to be lesbians, with some gay or bi folk of both genders. And a few straight friends too.
Less often I may dress up and stay at home, while I work from home. Do all the usual at-home activities, such as doing laundry, fixing meals, and sharing meal times with my daughter. But I find that less rewarding than getting out and being sociable as a lady.
