I got on the elevator today, and 3 guys got on with me, always an awkward moment...anyhoo, they got off before I did, and just as the doors were closing behind them I heard this: "She smelled good!" "She sure did!" What a commercial for Revlon's Fire and Ice :heehee:
Wow! Now that's cool!Quote:

I'm sure we've all had our share of those, girlfriend...like "was that a guy?"Quote:

Awesome experience, Cissy. From your pics, I know I would not peg you as a guy. Your build looks small and you have a naturally femme face. Work it!
At a party, I once had a girl say to me...'nice dress, I had one like that in the 80's'...what killed me was it was a dress loaned to me from my wife (it wasn't out of style)...kind of a catty comment (acceptance on some level)...but my wife was not too pleased to hear it...she was ready to clobber the girl. I got a good chuckle.
Aahh Fire and Ice my own personal favorite, I won't leave home without it. (seriously I leave a bottle in the car for when I just need a fem moment :battingeyelashes: )
Awesome for the compliment though :hugs:
Same thing happened to me last week when two guys got off the elavator and said she has some nice perfume on.
You think that's bad, when I was just starting "out" and didn't have the chops to pass (babushka over a bad wig, tragic outfit, etc) a girl at the checkout counter at a drugstore asked me in a loud voice, "Are you a man?"Quote:

About 18 years ago, I got daring and dressed for a company Halloween party.
Later in the evening in front of several other employees, a female co-worker walked up to me and almost hissed: "You make a better looking woman than you do a man!"
turned on her heel, and walked away. No one said anything, but everyone looked at me. All I could manage was: "Bet you say that to all the boys!"
Never was quite sure why she reacted the way she did, but it was weird because of the mixed feelings I had about it- part of me was flattered.... of course, I couldn't admit that, because everyone thought it was just a costume.
Several months later a male friend of my boss "Bill" was visiting our offices. He noticed a picture someone had taken at that Halloween party of me sitting on Bill's lap that I had tacked to my bulletin board. "Who's SHE?" He asked. Bill pointed at me and said, "You're looking at her!" The guy got red and sputtered out a "nice to meet you" and he and Bill left.
Of course Bill told everyone in the office about it, and it was all I heard about for months afterward. Again, very weird because of the mixed emotions it generated.
Have often wondered if anyone had suspicions about me afterward....
Revlon Fire And Ice, huh? I'm going to have to try it.
Many years ago a man in a bar asked me if I was a crossdresser. (I'm a GG.) I think it's kind of funny. :lol:
Too funny, that's worse than asking a woman if she's preggers...Quote:

Cissy that is so cool and there wasn't the WTH was that a dude? Your confidence and composure pulled you through. Congrats and do you mind if I try that fragrence?

Sure thing, I don't want to come off like a spokeswoman for Fire and Ice, it's just that I've gotten a lot of compliments from guys and girls about it, it makes me feel very feminine and best of all, it's $14 at Walmart :)
