Let me set the stage. The past months I have had almost unlimited opportunities to be out en femme. I seem to pass without difficulty and I have never been challenged. This morning was MY MORNING. To me, everything seemed to be right. My hair looked good, my outfit was a pair of white capris and a black knit top. The daytime makeup went on without difficulty. Everything seemed to be in order.
The outing was nothing special; just a short trip to a couple of stores. As I said, I get out quite often and it is really not a big thing. But today, something was different. I knew that everything was in order. I had confidence coming out my ears. With each step I took, my self-assurance grew. Like many males, I tend to lean forward if I’m not thinking about my posture. Not today, my shoulders were back and my D’s were “out there” for everyone to look at. I was proud and felt like I owned the world. I sought out conversation with other people. I smiled--a lot. I asked lots of questions of the clerks. It was like I had entered another world.
Has anyone else experienced these feelings? It was so sudden and so complete. For the first time in my dressing experiences, I didn’t have an insecure thought in my head. This attitude carried me through three different stores. Even now, I am still brimming with confidence.
Can anyone offer an explanation for this sudden change in my attitude? I want to save it and never have it go away. I’d like to preserve it and share it with all of my sisters here on the forum.
I do know this. Were it not for this forum I suspect I might still be in the closet and missing all the delicious experiences of being out and among the wonderful people in the world.
