Bopping along here reading the various threads and comments a thought occurred to me. Do you need the approval of others to openly cross dress and interact with people or can you do so regardless? I realize most of us had a great deal of trepidation when we first interacted with others en femme but for myself these days it's no big deal. I'm always just my regular self for the most part and just speak and act as I always do except for being en femme. What are your experiences in this regard?
