Reb.femme,
Hi stranger , long time no see !!
I get it with the smiles and I've had more hugs from people, women epecially since I've been out . As you may gather if you've lost touch so much has flowed under my bridge since your last appearance . Please PM me if you want to chat .
Gillian,
I'm not sure how much the Katlyn Jenner story affected the UK , but I agree with you about the labels they neither know or really care . Not sure about the dense ones they mostly see male or female and comment accordingly . I guess most of us are guilty of being self asorbed most of the time , perhaps the LGBT group have to make themselves more aware of their surroundings and who occupies it .
Allie ,
I'm sure you're right in that comment " trans " will cover it for most people and maybe leave it to us to fill in the blanks for them .
I can recall that conversation I overheard between a couple who debated my gender when they saw me drinking tea in a hotel lounge . The wife asked did he see that , when he asked what she replied that crossdresser , he argued she was wrong . So I guess recalling that story I've answered my own question we are possibly all seen as crossdressers , I hardly think she would have referred to me as a transgender or a transsexual person in that conversation .
