Stepping out into the word as your female self can be incredibly empowering. It’s powerful validation for crossdressers and transgender women alike.
In this blog post, I want to dive into this topic and hear about your own experiences. How often do you present yourself as a woman in public?
Do you live as a woman full time? Do you crossdress regularly or on occasion? Or is the answer, sadly, “never”?
Please take my transgender / crossdressing survey and share your thoughts in the comments below!

My life is too hectic. I feel like there are too many things pulling my attention in too many directions. That’s why for this poll topic, I’m kinda like whatever… I’m always in guy mode but I do like to have at least one feminine article on just to remind me of my female self. I’m also growing out a bob hairstyle. I guess I only use feminizing techniques that are easy and fuss-free. Don’t like spending too much time on all this.
I go out as a woman regularily! Even though I am not living as a fulltime woman not being able to mix in as the person I am with the public would be such a big deprivation to me!
I go out alone and with people. It is very natural to me now and that’s also how I am being accepted.

July 19 is my one year anniversary. I have never looked back it is who I am. I never thought I would see the day that I would do this it wasn’t in my play book and yet I am so liberated by this one act I only wish I had the courage/balls to do it sooner.. Oh yeah the cost and time is unbelievable but worth it if that is who you are….
I don’t pass that well and don’t care. I’ve been living as a woman full time for over 2 years and recently completed a legal name change. “Whether you think you can or think you can’t you’re right!” Henry Ford. Make yourself happy. Fear is imaginary, a waste of time and energy. Deal only with reality and be true to yourself.
Oh Shirley, I admire your spirit,I too don’t care but just want to be me. Unfortunately I am married and my wife says it will be the end of us if I do, she is worried what the neighbours will think. Go for it girl.
Love Heather
Thanks Heather. Oh yes. I used to worry about all of them, the neighbors, family, friends, coworkers and the public. I’d spent most of my life resolutely conforming to the societal norm paying an undescribably heavy price in pain and torment. So when I decided quite suddenly to live as a woman I went out and about in public as my cheerful happy self everyday. I was ready if anyone gave me any static to give it right back to them. Much to my surprise in all this time no one did. I’m so grateful no one gives a damn. Thank you all so much for not caring. Rest assured the neighbors could hardly care less what the beep you’re doing.
That being said I have no idea what your situation is or how you could possibly calm your wife’s fears. I sympathise and wish you the best of luck. I’m easy to find if you’d like to say hi on Facebook, Google or AOL.
Sweet dreams with love and hugs,

Thank You Shirley for saying it so well. “Deal only with reality and be true to yourself.” The day I admitted to the world that I was truly a woman trapped in a testosterone environment and that I was finally becoming true to myself was both happy and sad. Sad, because my wife and 2 of my children got mad and walked out of my life. Happy, that my middle daughter has been very supportive of me with much cost to her. As much as I have disliked the loss and heartache I have caused, the new found peace of mind, contentment from within and total support of newly made friends and non-judgemental attitude of my daughter has helped balance the playing field. Again, may I quote, “Deal only with reality and be true to yourself” I love you all for who you are. Bobbi Jo
I undestand you dear. Many of us feel jusy like you.If their was a place to escape to we would all go.
Having a family with kids makes thinking just about me,impossible.
I would love to hear from many more of you out there.
My wife is accepting of me in private but no more. She is a women and does not understand…..

I go out in public as a woman occasionally.

I made my choice to be happy as a woman.
It doesn’t matter who I was .I still a wonderful person. .I like dressing up being me..I would love to dress full time 24/7 unfortunately I have a male job ..
I went out for the first time EVER in mid Feb, and it was so liberating and perfect, that I had gone full time by the end of March. The picture is me, on that first day, standing in the Gulf of Mexico. Heaven!

I go out in public as a woman often just about every weekend. Although I don’t live as a women fulltime, it’s as if I do. The only time I’m not as Cassie is when I have to go to the office which is 4 days a week and then it’s always in gender neutral clothing. I have become very comfortable with myself and if others do not like who I am then it’s their loss not mine. I often go shopping in the department stores and grocery shopping and believe I am able to blend as a fulltime woman without a problem. Is there a day that I will live fulltime, well I hope so. I will be traveling to Florida for an extended stay and will be Cassie fulltime, I am looking forward to the time spent as the person I am but my only concern will be the heat and not sure how I will adjust.
