What a great conversation! Passing is the holy grail for me, and dressing to blend is a big part of that, but I know how lucky I am to have the build and bone structure to be able to pull it off. I've met lots of crossdressers, and it's like a bell shaped curve: some of us can pass easily, some of us will never pass no matter what, and most of us have a shot if we work at it, but it's not easy and there will definitely be bad days and embarrassing moments. I don't think trying to pass is for everyone, and if you're happy and content dressing as a woman in the privacy of your home, you should be happy, and if you have someone to share it with, you're very lucky.
