I use the restroom for the gender I'm presenting as well. So far, I've not had anyone say anything if they did notice.

Acting like you belong there is a great way to be invisible, which is to...

That's lovely, Lynn.

I love every bit of this thread!

I'm in!

Well said.

Exactly.

That said, I have this black miniskirt I like to wear with this off the shoulder, tan and orange (looks better than it sounds, trust me) little sweater and black ankle boots.

Those are brilliant.

Thanks for posting how to make them.

How do you wear them? What part goes where?

That is really sweet.

So far as I'm aware, I'm the only one in my family.

My wife picked out the name Emily for me. It stuck, I likes it.

The Sputnik bit, I picked because I've been fascinated by the Sputnik satellite since I was a kid. Not just on an aesthetic level,...

Earthquake bag! Awesome, thanks!


Funny how I always overlook the obvious stuff.

Hoo boy, I know that song backwards and forwards. Doesn't happen too often, but depending on the kind of day I'm having, I'll feel blue the rest of the day.

Hard for me to tell. There's stuff like being aware of how I sit, and being careful about not touching my face (makeup). That's probably not what you're asking though. If I act differently, it's...

First full outfit, definitely, as everyone's said.

Learn to walk in the new heels you're gonna get before you step out.

That's some interesting stuff, Katie.

Sounds like a great day.

The Americana, the big outdoor mall you spent the latter part of your day, is three blocks from my place. From your description of your outfit, you definitely pegged a...

No. I don't think I could call you a wuss. This is a big, big thing for you to do for the sake of your marriage.

That's great, bernadine!

Will we get to see any photos?

It takes a lot of practice. I'm still working on it myself with slow success.

I've actually found some good free instruction online. Youtube user candiFLA has a series of voice instruction...

Everyone on my mom's side of the family seem to have the same face. I'm no exception.

I started dressing when I was about 12 and was given some clothes by a friend when I was about 16.

I was 19 the first time I went out dressed in public. Dove right into the deep end and it was...

*Raises hand*
Seriously, how awesome would that be?

I love the outfit. If I'm reading the timeline right, it's what you wore to drop off your application on Halloween, yeah? That shouldn't be...

Everyone on my mom's side of the family has my face. I've grown up looking like her, it still didn't prepare me for that first time she was looking back at me from the mirror. You're right, it is...

So many in this thread are saying it: Attitude.

It's not a magic wand, but it can compensate for a lot. Having the right sort of frame of mind can really help if I'm out and notice the patch of...

I think the first time I felt truly feminine was that first time my wife helped me get dressed up.

This was a little over three years ago, shortly after we got married. She knew about me dressing...

I've got a bit of the man boobs myself. A good push-up bra does some of the work. I also take a large rouge brush and lightly, very lightly draw on a sort of lower-case "m" with a dark blush to...

So you end up getting it home and hiding it away until you're out of hidey-holes. Well, go through what you've hidden away and decide what you want to keep. What you decide to get rid of you can...
