Sitting on a bench, full femme, and a troop of 30 Jr high school students parade on right in front of me, not a word said (and trust me, I was listening �� ). I guess I might have gotten over the 'look like a hooker Robin, it's cool' look, ahh, I blend, maybe a little bit!
OK, the tight Moncler ski jacket with nothing underneath but a push up bra and some serious cleavage showing might be a touch on the cheesy side but who cares, it's comfortable and I dont!

I'm starting to believe that TG is just a part of these kids landscape. I'm convinced that to most it's just no big deal. Of course, you may have just been passing good too. I know I don't pass at 6'7" in the heels I had on and I walked down a sidewalk into a group of about 15 or so of 'em coming the opposite direction.
I was cringing inside and guess what. It was a total non event. I think these kids out here have moved on.
Hi Robin ,
I have always tried to practice the blended look as it is under the radar ,although I have seen some hot hooker styles I might be jussssssssssssssssssssssssst a bit over the top @61 yrs trying to emulate them

Few possible reasons -
You probably mostly give off a vibe like everything is normal so others react accordingly. That just comes with being out more and more.
Part of it is probably you may look convincing enough as to not cause suspicion.
The biggest thing though - Kids and young adults do not notice much of anything unless it is on their cell phone.
It takes a true Erin to be a pain in the assatar.
Proof that dressing "to blend" works for some folks, Robin. Congrats!
When u have a face that resembles an old, male, wicked Witch of the West? No matter how I dress I scare people!
U can't keep doing the same things over and over and expect to enjoy life to the max. When u try new things, even if they r out of your comfort zone, u may experience new excitement and growth that u never expected.
Challenge yourself and pursue your passions! When your life clock runs out, you'll have few or NO REGRETS!
People notice. They, for the most part, don't care until you somehow become part of their life. Growing up, we all knew the old man who sat on his porch every afternoon, chewing tobacco, the elderly lady who wore an odd hat all the time, the gay guy who ran the stationary store and wore ladies glasses, and many more characters in our community. Even 50 years ago, we all noticed, but nobody ever said anything to any of them. Same as today.
Some causes of crossdressing you've probably never even considered: My TG biography at:http://www.crossdressers.com/forums/...=1#post1490560
There's an addendum at post # 82 on that thread, too. It's about a ten minute read.
Why don't we understand our desire to dress, behave and feel like a girl? Because from childhood, boys are told that the worst possible thing we can be, is a sissy. This feeling is so ingrained into our psyche, that we will suppress any thoughts that connect us to being or wanting to be feminine, even to the point of creating separate personalities to assign those female feelings into.
I forgot to mention, I was rocking five days face fur and having a loud argument with myself, ahhh, acceptance 😂
Hell-o Robin,
Happy B-day one more time
Sounds like you were out having fun, while I was "slaving" away at work!
(If you'd consider tasting wine from the barrel slaving, or even work???)
I can't imagine, given your posts here, that this is the first time that
you've rendered a large group of people utterly speechless! Ha Ha ha!
The 5 days growth must have blended in with the fur on that fabulous jacket!
Nice touch!!!!!
Much Love,
Kristyn
I smile because you are my friend, and
I laugh because there is nothing you can do about it!!!
My best and most comfortable experience was buying my second wig. I was totally dressed and the staff at the store, the women shopping and the female police officer (who was there because it was near their closing time) all acted like nothing was unusual. It was a VERY encouraging outing.
Hi Birthday Girl, If I saw a group of teenage girls coming by while I was dressed I would be petrified ...
...
Having my ears triple pierced is AWESOME, ~~...
I can explain it to you, But I can't comprehend it for you !
If at first you don't succeed, Then Skydiving isn't for you.
Be careful what you wish for, Once you ring a bell , you just can't Un-Ring it !! !!
I can imagine if my daughter were in Jr. High and in that group "OH...MY...GOD, what's my Grandma doing here, and when did she learn to use a smart phone! 😲 )...ya, I'm starting to look like my mother, that's cool, she was pretty hot in her day 😉
@Kristyn - LOL, actually I was afraid it was going to turn into another sexy rock video, a bunch of guys holding me over their heads while I shredded guitar and sang (Lita Ford anyone)...but then I woke up 😧
And what's this about wine tasting...for work yet!? 😀
You passed the acid test there. :-)
Work on your elegance,
and beauty will follow.
LOL, you know I've seen Sherry 'naked' (from the neck up people!) and you can totally rock it as a woman! Don't get me wrong, I get the desire to be incognito but it's really not nessesary! ☺Originally Posted by docrobbysherry

Good for you Robin. Sounds like it was fun.
Most people don't notice and don't care what other people look like. Whether they see you, or even notice you, people don't care. If you "people-watch" in Walmart, or at the mall, or some other public place, and observe the lack of attention paid to people who stand put because of their unusual appearance or attire, you might agree that people really don't care.
