I leave early for college in case of flat tire or something since it is over an hour away. Got down there real early so I told myself take a stroll thru Walmart. I had on my usual outfit except I went in wearing the 3" high heels. I grabbed a cart and pushed it in. First stop women's restroom and then I casually strolled thru the superstore for about 45 minutes. Went extremely well again! I went over the way and pumped in some gasoline and then thought I would use the womens' restroom. I went in the station but it was closed due to construction. I was eyed by an older man but probably for only fact of wearing the heels.
After class I got dressed again and decided to try the mall again. I wore the high heels in and then changed into the nurse's shoes and used the womens restroom in the back of the mall. All went extremely well so I drove up to Kohl's and wore the high heels in. Stayed about an hour in there. I wanted to up the stakes a bit so I went to Kmart, again in the heels and bought something ( a new toilet seat of all things). Changed into a slightly longer denim skirt (to mid knee) and then went to the city park again. On way home parked a bit far from the post office and went in up the sidewalk stairs wearing the heels. The only responses I got today were "hi's" and smiles. I usually just smile back.
In it all I just want to add that I checked myself out in the mall mirrors everytime I got a chance and I still think I have that definite male shape. Just not enough butt and hips. Probably more people read me than I think, but if anyone its the 40ish aged women who seem to look the most. I passed people real close again, some really close, like 1 1/2ft. I must not stick out too much. I know the Kmart girl cashier did but she did not say a word, a smirk or nothing. I even looked back as I pushed the cart in its spot and she was not watching me.
My advice is simple; the heck with "passing" ( whatever that really means)... you may look quite manly, but, dress age, weather. etc. appropriate, walk with good posture, hold your head high and look at the people when they pass you (I do wear sunglasses though), but most importantly just stroll along at a real slow liesurely pace like you have a bunch of time to kill. You will highly value every second of this time though and after a time or two you will beg yourself to go out more and more... please play it safe. I think broad daylight is the safest and a larger number of people is probably less likely tocause you problems...unlike in the dark running into one individual... IMO...enjoy! I can do it so I know you can do it!:):):):Amanda
