I have a feeling that some here are Happily Closeted. You have no desire whatsoever to ever go out dressed in any way, shape or form. You might consider CDing a "hobby" as far as you are concerned. Likely you seldom, rarely or never post and whether you could ever "pass as a woman" has nothing to do with it. You simply have no need or desire to go out and likely have not told anyone or feel you need to share your secret.
Another group fits into the category of "I will never leave my house, because I could never pass as a woman". IF this describes you, here is something that might help you to escape.
Is there a difference between "passing as a woman" and just plain "passing"?
NO.
Consider that hundreds here over the years have gone out in some variation of "mixed presentation" and not been HASSLED in any way, shape or form by Joe Doe public. I (and probably many others?) consider this "passing" And do all of these people have any reason to make this stuff up?
And then you have the hundreds over the years who have claimed that "I passed as a woman" or can pass as a woman if I do x, y and z and/or as long as I don't have to walk or talk or...
Ummmm ok. You KNOW you "passed as a woman" because...??? So some member or members of JD public walked up to you and told you that right to your face or because you read their mind? If they smiled or nodded appreciatively or tipped their hat or gave you a compliment, does that mean they THOUGHT you were a woman? Is it OK to give another Human a compliment based on their appearance alone? If J D public doesn't seem to notice or care does it mean a man "passed" as a woman or a woman "passed" as a man. Unless a man or woman in the RW is actually seeking a partner, they really have no reason to be out trying to bust CDers.
Do they?
Unless of course CD busting is their favorite hobby?
IF someday escaping the closet is on your bucket list, why not THIS weekend?
Or would simply NOT being hassled (because of yur appearance) not be good enough?
