Do we dress differently according to the audience?

As I develop, however slowly, from meds, it is harder to conceal that I don't have a typical chest profile. Nothing overwhelming-no coconut bras like in skits-but definite points.
I find greater confidence if I am in a setting with more women present. I doubt I would present myself as calmly in what would be a male audience. I suppose the former relates to the silly notion that women might actually notice, might approve (this is how brains can backfire,etc), smile, positive stuff. I can't imagine this from a male audience and as I have no interest in men, I wouldn't welcome any approach with partying in ming.
do others have this gender specific thinking and acting? Helenr

Yes, I dress differently if there are mostly girls vs guys. It's usually subtle differences but I do believe guys notice less.

You'll find its not just trans folk who dress according to the people they are going to be around. EVERYONE does it, its just a common human thing. Every single human on the planet dresses and/or acts differently depending on who they'll be seeing, where they are going and for how long etc. and everyone is more comfortable with some people than others.

I think I understand where you're coming from - its just that its not much different from the general human experience of social interaction it just happens to be a not so common situation.
