Stepping out publicly as a woman is a powerful way to validate your female self.
In fact, I recently published a poll asking “How often do you go out in public as a woman?”
I was happy to see that the majority of my readers (transgender women and crossdressers) go out at least occasionally.
No matter how often you do it, I’m sure you can remember your first time presenting as a woman or crossdressing in public.
Since this is such an important gender-affirming step, I’d love to hear about it!
When was it? Where did you go? And what was your experience?
Please share with us in the comments below!
And if you’ve never been en femme in public, I’m sure you’ll find lots of inspiration in these stories.
As always, thank you for reading and participating!
Love,
Lucille

Hi Jane again I feel more confident second time around but went to local hotel this time in a black skirt and pink tank top I felt soo sexy I think some men where checking me out or I hope they where lol I wish I had done it years ago
First time out was at a transformation salon in PPhiladelphia… it was scary and exciting at the same time. The salon owner made feel right at home… the absolute perfect experience for a first timer!
It’s today first time so nervous but I’m so horny as well
How did it go? I’m going Saturday
The 1st time I went out in public as a woman I was djing for a friend’s birthday party on arrival no one realised who I was & didn’t even recognise me but once they realised who I was all the women were sizing me &telling me which parts of me they wanted to replace on themselves (I had to briefly remind them that I was attached to the body parts they wanted lol) men were as shocked as the women &bar staff were at how well I looked & a bouncer (doorman ) asked if I had a licence for my long legs I didn’t mind because it was all good attention I attracted &because of how comfortable I was around everyone people commented on the fact I looked &seemed more happier as a woman than I’d ever looked as a male so I can honestly say that I got a lot of respect that night from a lot of local people
sadly i havent been out yet.. im still a tad too freaked out about how i look, i want it all to be perfect…. or as perfect as i can manage :/
Me toooo. I’ve never really told anyone either. I mean I just wish I could show them and me look amazing! I mean my body looks good! But I can’t ever do the makeup or hair cause its still a “secret”,. The eye makeup stays on too much so I can’t ever wear it, and if I grow my hair my mom wants me to get it cut, and my freinds notice and give me crap, , cant shave my legs either, did that once and they saw when summer hit.. still get crap for it.. freaking 19 and I can’t live how I wanna live,
My first time out was when I was about 5 1/2, in kindy-graden and a few more times during grammar school. During those years my feelings of knowing that I was truly a girl and not a boy were so intense that, one day I decided, it I couldn’t participate in school as a girl then I wasn’t going to participate at all. So I refused to do any of the group assignments, which included shared reading. This didn’t go over too well, and I was, despite having a very high IQ, diagnosed as educationally handicapped (EH) and was transferred (secluded) away from the rest of the school. It look a long time to get over that, and I didn’t really dress in public until later in my 20’s.
My first time out I was meeting one of my girl friends at McDonald’s. I called Tami to see if she wanted coffee and of course she said she did. So I went inside and brought the coffee. When I went outside Tami was there waiting. We continued to go to Beauty Boutique to get new our new wigs. She asked me how I made out inside McDonald’s and I said it was a pleasant experiance. I’ve been out many other times shopping and socializing with other girls and always had a fantastic time. I also go out alone. Sorry Lauren for your bad experiance.
My first time out was Indy Pride and it was wonderful. My second time was at a mall and I was threatenrd. I’m Bi Gender, so not going out en femme is not that big of deal. I just wear women’s jeans and panties underneath.
