Are you afraid to step out as a woman for fear of not “passing?”
Instead of fixating on passing, my advice to crossdressers and transgender women has always been to try to “blend in” as a woman instead. (Read more on that topic here.)
But lately, I’ve been wondering… Is blending in REALLY the ultimate goal when presenting as female?
After all, why wear cute outfits, style your hair, or apply makeup if no one notices?
I think it’s a natural feminine desire to want to stand out and make a statement. Does your inner woman share this desire?
This is an interesting topic, and I’d love to hear your thoughts:
- Do you enjoy getting positive attention when presenting yourself as a woman?
- Or do you prefer to blend in and attract as little attention as possible?
Please take my poll and share your thoughts below!
Love,
Lucille

I enjoy standing out, I have had very positive, uplifting comments from women saying how pretty I look, when I’m dressed in heels, dress or skirts and tops. Nothing to ostentatious, classy and very becoming. Being a MARY KAY Beauty Consultant I dress to impress.
If I could afford to get My own Breasts & had a full head of hair, I would wear Dresses & Skirts everywhere, all the time. I do pass and wear Female Clothes most all the time. There are like 5 people including my wife who know and say I pass, but the Goal is to be Safe & Not Stand Out. Just enjoy being one of the Girls.
That question is actually really difficult to answer. I prefer to be seen, but sometimes it is dangerous for me to be visible. I am coming out and I have been on hormones since April, but if I dress feminine ir even act feminine I can get it from my family especially. I have actually found that in public I have little problems or conflict. It’s in private where I face a lot of criticism physical and mental abuse and I grow tired and frustrated and very sad from that situation. None of us should have to put up with this
From my large wardrobe I pick out an outfit that will let me blend in.I go to the malls and parks and see what the majority are wearing and I will go from there. I see alot of women wearing leggings and a nice looking pull over shirt. Sometimes I will wear what I call office attire if I go out during the week days
I always thought I would want to blend in so I wouldn’t rock the boat per say but I spent 35 years hiding from my true self trying to be who everyone else expected me to be. Now I go out every day dressing and living the way I want to. I do not mind standing out in a crowd and I have never been happier. Ladies just be your true self your happiness matters too.
I prefer to stand out, but only as a well put-together “lady”. I won’t wear sweats or flats but rather a cute dress, cardigan, Jose and heels. I also select appropriate jewelry and my signature scent. I have been complimented by the female owner of my fav boutique as presenting a truly feminine image, better than many of her genetic female customers. I love dressing as girly as I can. That increases my sense of being a woman when in public.
I am tall and a big woman so I try and blend in. However, being the size I am, it’s difficult not to stand out. I wear flats and dress appropriate.
I would rather blend in. Dont get me wrong i would love to have positive feedback on how i look but im so worried about what others think i would rather blend in with a crowd so that i wont be singled out for ridicule
