Hi,
I went out last Friday night to a meeting and wore my wig, & new boots. I didn't really mean to - I meant to just wear them to the meeting but of course walking ten blocks in either direction does count as out. The on Saturday I wore the wig and a more casual outfit out, this time further 'out' one might say. I wore some makeup but not too much. 2 people did not recognize me. It wasn't terrible but it is a good way to sort of force myself to get working on the voice and mannerisms. The next step for me is to let go of my masculine self and accept the feminine and act that way without feeling self-conscious.
