My point is that I do NOT really attract any more attention that I did as Stephanie. I don't dress to attract attention, I just dress to look good. I may get second looks when I am out dressed enfemme and looking like a man, but who cares? Certainly not me! And in the past 7 years I have not heard one negative comment! The majority of people just don't care!! Sure, if you dress to attract attention people will notice and probably make comments! But if you dress in a normal fashion, people won't pay much attention.
The problem that many CD'ers have is that they worry about what people will think of them, before it ever happens. Dress the way you want and go out into the big world! It is not a scary place, and in most of the world no one is going to grab you and tear your clothes off!! If you do attract attention, then maybe change your dressing style!!
