I was at the veterinarian yesterday, complete male mode except for my purse, when lady behind the counter commented on my purse.
I have a large crystal gemstone hanging from it, I took out my keys, showing her that I have a matching one on my key ring. I told her that my wife and daughter rag on me because I have more purses than the two of them combined. I told her, in my defense, all my purses combined do not cost as much as either one of their Louis Vuittons.
She said she has seen a few men carry Man Bags, I told her those are the most ridicules things under the sky, in their attempt to NOT make them look feminine, they make them completely non-functional, women’s purses for the most part are designed to be functional.
She said she thought it was Awesome that I didn’t mind carrying a ladies purse. I told her it didn’t bother me at all because I am what most people call a crossdresser.
I could tell she was stunned that I had just said that, but I believe it was because I said it without any hesitation or reserve. I told her I don’t like the term because when most people hear ‘ crossdresser ‘ they think Tootsie or some sort of drag queen, I told her I prefer ‘ Androgynous ‘ because when I dress I wear half feminine attire and half masculine attire.
At this point she had the biggest grin on her face :D and said “wow, you are amazing! You are so comfortable with yourself”, I told her I use to keep it a secret, decided to go public with it a couple of years ago, and that my 2 favorite phrases are “You Wear A Mask For So Long, You Forget Who You Were Beneath The Mask”, and “It Does Not Matter What Other Think About You, It’s What You Think About Yourself That counts”.
We must have talked for 20 minutes :blah: , asking me questions about what I wear, and what type of reactions I get, she had me jot down my Flickr website, she was dying to see some of what I wear, I told her the next time I bring one of the dogs I will come in a skirt and heels.
