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!

I’ve always wanted to seen as a woman. I always put 110% when l crossdress. I realize now that I would rather be a woman. It just feels right to want to look this way. 🙂
I started hormonal transition in 1996, so I’ve had plenty of time to experiment and get comfortable in the world. Sometimes, though rarely now, I still wonder what people see when they look at me. For the most part though, I feel fairly confident that I blend in, even if I dress up a little, and most people are busy enough in their own heads that I don’t even register on their radar.
Like the previous comments, on the daily I tend to dress to blend in. Occasionally I still seek the attention that comes with standing out from the crowd, despite my age.
Actually it all depends on the situation. Mostly I would wish to blend in until I got my self confidence built up to where I am not scared being out in public dressed. However, once my confidence builds, I would love to stand out and have men ogle after me.
I think it depends on situation. If I was going to a club, I would want to stand out some…. Walmart, blend in 🙂
I chose “Blend In” but I do need to qualify that answer. I’m 66 years old so I DON’T dress like a ‘working girl’ or teenager but I also don’t wear pants or anything else that resembles men’s wear when I’m out in public.
I’m always in a nice dress or skirt and top combination with heels and makeup. I usually see a few other women (GG or other) dressed as I am when I’m out. It’s nice to know that there are still a few of us who like to be dressed up and look pretty when we are out shopping.
I prefer to blend in. I am just beginning transition and want to feel free, not looked as being different.

As being born male,I have alway’s been a petite male. For reaching my present age, I’am a 5’10” and my weight has always been 130 to 140 lbs. As of today I have more female hormones than a male should. Was tested when I reached 21 years old. I love my Feminine Figure..my waist is a 26 and inseam 34. I can fit into a size 5 in panties and skinny jeans, my bra size is 36 C. I love and enjoy transforming into a female. So, I can blend in…
It is hard even to blend in. I mean i look like Socrates trying to score a goal. I know what this story will lead to and i hope that i can get a much needed makeover one day. I love to look nice and presentable in public arenas so i am going to get what i want with persistance.
