Mostly B but also A & C
gotta say its b,and c for me,but some times i never get spotted.
just a florida girly girl...................................what in the world can make this brown eyed girl turn blue(roxette)
A 70% (likey the "don't care" part)
B 25%
C 5%
D Still pending...
So far this year it has been an "A". Last spring I thought I had my first "F" at the gas station, I was gassing up the SUV when a truck driver got out of his rig several spaces over and started looking in my direction, he ended up about 30 feet in front of the car looking at me....I started to get a little nervous..so I looked right back at him..he did nothing...so I'm thinking, this guy has glasses as thick as coke bottles,he couldn't possibly see me this well.
Stupid me!...got in the car and left and on my way out noticed that there was roofers on the canopy above, he was checking the work out not me...just another paranoia attack.

Always D,where I live there is extreme intollerance towards anyone who is different.
Drink up me heartys,yo ho!
Kate
There were two people checking me out, so that would be double Ds?
For the record, I get mostly A/B with a very few Cs... only 1 D but it only lasted a few seconds as he shouted insults from a passing car.

I would say that it is" A "most of the time and" B "the rest .
Today was my first time out in daylight!
Drove to the shopping mall wher the reaction was all A.
In fact, I even ended up buying a new outfit as the shop assistant could not have been more friendly and helpful, B.
No C or D as yet, but it was first thing at the mall, no groups of drunken males to contend with. I got a few looks, but most people were too busy to notice, those that did made nothing of it that I could detect.

[SIZE=2]To my knowledge, it's straight A's for me......Just like my grades in college.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=2]except for the one time had a B incident when a fellow 24/7 TS sister recognized me in a store......oh well....[/SIZE]

[SIZE=2]My story, is that I live 24/7, so maybe that makes it a little easier by having lots of experience dealing with the public...[/SIZE]

A's for the most part when I'm by myself minding my own business, occasionally when I go out with a group of "girls" who are a little more outgoing and in-your-face in public it gets more interesting...of course when I started out I got a lot of C's and D's but I worked very hard to bring up my grades, like a good girl
In past years, when I went out as a female the reactions were either A or B. Now that I go out as a male wearing feminine clothing it is either A, B, or C, mostly B and C. Jinxing myself again, but have never had a D or worse!

A's as far as I can tell. I usually can't detect any reaction on the street. But I've had a one glance in the parking structure at the Beverly Center. I had been studying a woman's very nicely put together look, and she decided to pay attention to me, resulting in a nice (but knowing) smile.
I think folks are more attentive to others in a big bad dark parking structure than they are on the street.
I'm not too big (5'8" and slender), and that helps a lot with the all important first glance impression. Of course, when they get a good look at my face, all bets are off!

A's or B's for me mostly, possibly a C thrown in but I've not really noticed it. I don't recall ever having a bad response from anyone, especially since i started transitioning and living full time.

well, since I don't try to pass I'm usually wearing fem clothes presenting male...needless to say I stay away from skirts/dresses. I don't remember anything less than an "A" but once. It was a B- I'll call it. My fault too... I had a job to do on a new construction site and I wasn't thinking about what I wore that day...black skort with white tank top and white sandals. Got a few looooooong looks...

Now mostly A, sometimes B (hard to tell sometimes). Before I had a make-over, learned to apply makeup much better and did not have down the femme voice I have now, I got something between C and D from teens working at a movie theater. The ticket guy called others staffers to "come see" me as I entered the lobby. Then later, a curious staffer that had missed me in the lobby came into the theater while the movie was on, searched the audience in the dark, stood at the end of my aisle,then peered and gawked at me. *That* was awkward. It taught me I could take being read and being treated like a sideshow (rudely) in a stride.
A, B & C....it also depends on how you dress. wearing pants will definitely put you in the category of A. If you dress provocatively, people will want to look, that's just human nature. If you dress elegantly and do it well, you get smiles.
Making face-to-face eye contact from 4 feet away in a location where people are forced to acknowledge you is where it gets interesting. People feel they must respond somehow, some ignore, others take a double take. I've gotten enough positive & neutral responses that a dirty look from someone means nothing to me.

"A"
but as there is no apparent response I cant say if its just acceptance/tolerance or no one notices.

I would go with mostly A when I'm out. Course that may be because I'm moving so fast. My outings other than clubbing involve mostly going to mall's bookstores, and shopping in Ferndale( Which is a one of the most relaxed cities to hang out in). When I slow down enough to buy something or talk to folks between A and B's with a little minor celebrity staus at certain places. I have never been treated rude, may have made a couple folks nervous. Have had a few folks chat me up the occasional compliment, or being checked out look etc. All in all positive experiences.
Thus far I've gotten both A & B. Today, I purchased a wig with the help from a friend and it's been all A so far! I'll write about it later
Amen. If you see the right attitude at work, you learn the right attitude will work.
In my limited experience (I really need to get out more), I would say B. There might have been some A, but I was ignoring them as much as they were ignoring me. I only noticed the B's.
"A"
Like many others have said, I don't know if its "Don't care" or "don't notice." And I don't really care which it is.
The result is the same, I get to live my life the way I want without being mistreated. Who could ask for anything more?

I would have to say A, could be B, but not really aware of any. I believe most people see what they expect to see when looking at others. So if you are presenting as female, that is what they see.
