Your questions and comments are very insightful. I love your openness and honesty. We (I) probably don't get enough of that.
I could sum up my feelings on it by saying that reality can really screw up a fantasy. The examples are endless.
I actually think you've made some sort of quantum leap in acceptance by not only allowing, but expecting him to deal with everyday life within his femme personna. Most of us have dealt with cd related issues while they're in the forefront. You seem to have bypassed the usual, " I'm afraid my friends will notice his shaved legs" concerns and gone straight to "I'm able to deal with real life as a woman. Why can't you?".
A question for you. When you're having this disagreement with your boyfriend and you're looking into his made-up eyes, are you not distracted by his sparkling earrings and femine-looking breasts? Or bothered that his words come through his red lips? I think (knowing I may be completely wrong) that this is another one of those times that most women would want all this stuff to just go away. Do you feel like you're arguing with a woman? Your girlfriend? Or do you see all this no differently than you expect he sees you similarly attired? Do the clothes and makeup make no difference to you, or do you think you treat him differently when he's "her"? This is quite an intruguing discussion, and (to me) quite revealing into the thoughts of an acceptins SO. Thanks for your the insight!
