And you know what?

As I transition I've been figuring this out. I think the author is spot on.

I'm just not driven to wear the glamorous evening stuff anymore. I like it, but it now has a...

Not really a crossdresser, but a transsexual, like me.

I really look up to Jennifer Finney Boylan. She showed me that families that are strong enough can survive the changes in a spouse. It gave...

Laser got rid of my 12 'o clock shadow, so a 5 'o clock shadow should be no problem. It did not get rid of all my hairs, but certainly removed enough that a simple shave keeps me going for at least a...

I bought Oakley prescription glasses frames i.e. not sunglasses or sunglasses frames.

I picked from the feminine section and that's what I wear. People say nothing at all, and I doubt they know...

Duh!

1) What garments do you wear? (Side zip slacks, Dresses, Heels,etc?)
Slacks, jeans, plain blouses. I have no men's clothes or shoes at all.
2) Are you 'out'?
Yes, but not totally. Most people know...

:( You make me sad.I lost so much weight this year, before taking hormones. Not only did noone notice until a month into taking hormones, and then only because changes must have started happening,...

I'm wearing exclusively female clothes daily. I wear slacks, tops and flats daily and they are super comfortable. The shoes tend to be much lighter in weight, the pants are often stretchy and made of...

My favourite store in the US has to be Nordstrom Rack. I've bought shoes at Payless previously too. They sell 11W which always keeps me happy.

I just ended up not going back to drab anymore. My closet doesn't have any male clothing in it at all, just female clothing, some of which is fairly androgynous.

Definitely C, and E is spot on. I love retail therapy :)

Great comment,

I've heard this, and seen the written, many times by TV's I know. It's one of the reasons my wife soon realised I was not a TV. She kept telling me I "was different" to them. While...

I'm transitioning and managed to keep my closest family and friends around. So I couldn't assume such a pill would affect that.

I would have taken such a pill a while back, before I accepted...

You would think pants challenge our male anatomy. I'm wearing lady's pants daily these days and cannot say they are at all uncomfortable. Plus, they often have lycra in them that stretches.
...

Stubble because you slept over at someones place and really don't have any drab to wear seems OK.

If you're a "bearded crossdresser" I guess that's OK, but I would think it means you like the...

Well done, it's a huge step. I've always been "honest" and although it was nerve-wracking to start I quickly got over it.

Here's hoping it snowballs into even more daring things :) I'm kidding,...

I also discovered pants this year! My first pairs were bootcut stretch jeans, and those have since been followed with casual and career pants. I wear them all the time now.

I think as we develop...

Winter is cool (excuse the pun) As some of you have said, no more sweating so wearing wigs doesn't get so hot, and disguising the wrong body shape is so much simpler.

I'm not looking forward to...

Nicole Kidman is wonderful.

Kylie Minogue would be fun.

I'm more of a quiet home girl, I have a close GG friend that I really admire. I guess if I had to choose a role model it would be her....

Brilliant, lucky you! I'm glad you made the most of it. It's not often (enough) that happens :)

You're so right. Even at work the options are better. Sleeveless tops, short skirts (even if they're knee length)

We get suits, or at best smart casual long sleeve shirts and chinos.

Never mind access to a whole new section of most department stores!

Good for you.

I was nervous wearing earrings to work, then I did that and got nervous about wearing them to conservative...

Well in South Africa we have a government body called the Council for Conciliation, Mediation and Arbitration (CCMA). If that happened here, you would certainly have a case for reinstatement, or a 12...

So what makeup do you wear?!

Also I wear Nike sweatshirts, of the female variety naturally, but in general the arm lengths of most ladies tops are not long enough for me, so I try to stick with...

Well done. This is brilliant. I agree with your comments about confidence, and have done big things in that regard too (as some people on the forum know from previous postings)

You're an...
