Mirl's day out in SF

[phili]

Yesterday I went to my annual interview downtown with Project Affirm, a 4 yr study of the transgender population. Thought I'd share my happy pic after a day shopping and just having a great time feeling so at ease and in place.286837

My premise is that once we let clothes be clothes, and feminine or masculine behavior be behavior, then everyone can choose- rather than impose the requirement of being male or female for eligibility!

Had no trouble at all in shops, sales people get that they are selling clothes to people who want them! Lunch, etc, same thing. Passersby either preoccupied or complimentary, some doubtful, but they get to think about what they care about and why.

TTFN tata for now!

Hi Phill
I always enjoy these post that show someone comfortable and confident in being themselves.

Something most of us here strive for but few have or perhaps even can achieve.
Thanks for the post. BTW nice outfit. :)

[Rayleen]

Cool, love your outfit...enjoy Phill

[AllieSF]

Looking wonderful, happy and proud. I will have my second Project Affirm interview sometime in February.

Phili.

You are definitely all about the clothes. A very smart outfit and you complement it well.
I would pick you out of a crowd. Yes, that good.

Being at ease and yourself is a priceless experience. And its probably a good thing to be thought provoking. Some people really do need to think over what they feel about transgendered people and why.

I love the happy look on you face, so satisfying. Wow! I wish I had your confidence, I would love to wear that smile. Good for you and pat yourself on the back for me.

You look great! I am glad you had a great day! Thank you for sharing..it sounds wonderful, I wish that was the case everywhere.

[Tamsin Secret]

Lovely post, thanks for sharing. Go you!

[Jaylyn]

Phili I had to look twice and I love what your doing, I think this approach can really make a difference in how the common folk can accept us. I would love to be able to dress in a skirt, hose heels and my regular work shirt on top. We all should be confident as you and just be ourselves but in some places it's harder to do. I unfortunately live in one of those places. I just want to tell you thanks again and carry the image on.

[Andie]

Love your style Phili.

[GeorgeA]

Congratulations Phili. You are cutting a path through the forest for the rest of us. I'm working on my courage to follow your example. All the best.

[MindiB]

Phili you so rock.

[Krea]

Phili,
Your outfit looks great and you look so happy really being yourself. :)
As a miad, i always enjoy reading your posts. You are setting a great example for others. I just wish i had the courage to really overcome my fears and truly be myself.

[Beverley Sims]

In SFX you can easily enjoy a day dressed without hassles.

[Brenn]

Great look Phili! Keep blazing trails for the rest of us.
