Went out in public, couldn't be happier

[judith96]

I finally worked up the courage to go out in public a couple days ago. I'd been trying to talk myself into it for weeks but was terrified of being recognized, or worse that I wouldn't look convincing enough to pull it off. Eventually I settled on going to a bar about a half hour away that was having a midnight drag show. If there's anywhere that wouldn't judge me, that'd be it.

I used my nicest black dress and my only pair of heels (i usually wear comfy pumps) and probably spent about two hours fixing my breasts and doing makeup, then panicked for a bit but finally got myself in the car and hit the road. About half way there I finally calmed down and realized that yes, I'm actually doing it, I'm out on the road and going to let people meet the real me, no more false pretenses.

I almost turned back after I parked, and didn't even make it to the door before the anxiety hit me. I reminded myself that this place supposedly prided itself on being accepting, waffled for a bit, but finally went in. I didn't get a single funny look.

A nice TS girl sitting across the bar waved to me and gave me the nicest smile. I think she could tell it was my first time out and we chatted for a bit. The bartender and other customers were all very nice and nobody criticized me at all. I even got a couple compliments on how nice I looked. By the time I went home I was feeling completely comfortable, my nerves had completely settled.

When I finally got home (way past my bedtime) I felt so much better knowing that I finally felt accepted somewhere.

Welcome to the club. It does my heart good to see more of us out there because it is the first necessary step in gaining acceptance from the general population. They can't accept us unless they know we exist.

Hi Judith, I used to go out all the time when I was about 20 years old. Something came up not long afterward and I had to stop dressing and going out. I'm 55 now and I started again to go out dressed about three months ago. When I was getting ready to go out three months ago I kept wanting to chicken out! I finally worked up the nerve to see it through and it was a wonderful experience. Good for you,Judith. I think if there's a way,it's probably better to be out.

Hey, they may lose, but they lose spectacularly! If you know you're going to lose anyways, you owe it to the fans to lose as hard as you possibly can. Not every team can lose 36-1 and still come to practice the next day; they're an inspiration to us all!

Now if we could get everybody to go then we would all have a great time

That's my biggest dream, to be able to go out openly with a couple girlfriends and just have a nice time! Nothing crazy, just a casual night out with the girls. One step at a time I guess!

[Daphne Renee]

Glad you had such a great time

[judith96]

Thanks everyone so much for your support! I really hope I can find the time to try again in the next couple weeks, it should be a lot easier the second time out.
