I must say that this is one of the more interesting "pass" threads. For those of us that are out and about, I think I can say it's not about passing, it's about the IDC 'tude. (I Don't Care Attitude). I don't mean I don't care how I look, I mean I don't care what others say or do. I mean how to people with a disfigurement get out and about? They've developed a thick skin and just head on out.
Now as for blending, I try to raise the bar when I'm out and about. Way, and I mean way too many GGs around here just throw on a t-shirt, sweat pants, flip flops and head on out to the store. Not me. I go for a skirt or dress a nice pair of heels and try to look good. Not Sunday Church good, but nice. So, no I don't blend I just try to fit in.
So far, it's been pretty successful. I dress all the time, 'cept for work and go out full hair/makeup on the weekends and haven't looked back. I love GNOs with other CDrs and have even enjoyed a day light shopping trip or two....
For me, in the end, I try my best to look my best and then all I have to do is 'pass' the front door.......
Renne.....
