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

Leonara is a 70+ who has been crossdressing for over 10 years privately. I believed it was time for me to be out ‘n about… to dress aged appropriately I chose skinny pants, white blouse, with all the intimates of course.. girly flats , strawberry blond bobbed wig, a little makeup (I wore a mask). I drove to THE Bank and walked the walk to the ATM in the bank’s lobby.. no problem… I went to the post office to mail a letter.. on the way out a gentleman held the door for me!! I replied with a smile and soft thank you.. from my experience, it’s true … everyone minds their business…

As an adult it was while dating a couple, and she made losing my male facade comfortable. 26 years ago
She took me shopping with her and it was a challenge to let go. Having feminine features helped. The thing I remember is loving these heels and realizing flats exist for a reason. Like makeup, heels takes skills
Happy 2023 everyone

I went out to dinner with my best friend while traveling out of town last September. It was a safe location so as not to be recognized by anyone I knew. She was very supportive of doing so, including using my feminine name and related pronouns. It was fantastic to be able to shave my legs and underarms, do a facial and style my hair, apply very glamorous make-up. I put on lacy underwear and pantyhose and chose a sheer chiffon summer dress and comfortable high heeled sandals that I brought with me. We arrived in a crowded restaurant and were shown to our table. The server approached and with a big welcoming, affirming smile said, “hello Ladies.” You can imagine my delight on hearing her recognition of the persona I wanted to present. It was the beginning of a delightful rest of the evening. It all ended with a very bubbly bath back in the hotel room where I could luxuriously revel in the memory of my first public feminine experience!
I stepped out as a woman for the first time a little over two years ago. I made the decision to transition, initiated HRT, informed my wife. I then spent several weeks acquiring woman’s clothes. I got dressed up, put on a little makeup and went to Masons Brewery. I sat down and a lady bartender took my order for a beer and lunch. I informed her that I was out for the first time as a woman. She took a picture of me at the bar. Over the next year we became good friends. I have now fully transitioned and only present as a woman. All surgeries complete.
