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!
Love,

I present as a women 98% of the time. That 2% is because I volunteer for a Grief group and was asked to help specifically as an older male role model. When I can no longer pass as male I guess I will have to say blessings and good bye. I’ve been about this for 4 years, using herbs, having beard removed for two years now, and began HRT 5 months ago. I love me and that I finally let me out into the world. As my nephew remarked “you are living your best life. We are so happy for you”. Me too. 🙂 I recommend your sing in the car in your famine voice range, it help a lot for your confidence!
It is me Again. I want to talk some more giggles :). I am weading out all of my male clothing as I go and replacing them with female clothing . I have no intentions to buy anymore male clothing what so ever .I have 1 pair of men jeans left. And all the rest are female and I love the way they fit my bum and legs . I have been replacing my t shirts with blouses and the rest of My clothing I am replacing with all women clothing and that means shoes nylons underware and sleep ware.
I just wish that I could find the gutch to go out in public dressed as a womanI just wish that I could find the guts to go out in public dressed as a woman I am just frightened what people think about me.
Hi Sweet Jennifer. When I lived in San Diego most of us girls had to have three or more girls with us because of people who hate us. Sometimes they tried to beat us up. How, now I live in Arizona near a city that loves us. I go out here ant when I go into a store or whatever, I get waited on in less than minute and they talk to me as if we’ve known each other forever. Because of this I go out 3 to 5 times a week, and I’m dressed to be looked at. I have to tell a story.
A few weeks ago I was in a shopping mall and as I’d been walking around in my new heals I just received from Pleaser, a shoe store back east whet I felt like having a soda. I went up to one of they small booth’s to git one. When it was my turn to pick mine up, I sat my clutch and went to get my money purse from it, and I was devastated. I forgot to put it in my clutch. I cried out loud “OH NOOO,” I looked over at the young lady behind the counter to say something, and a lady with three young kids walked op to the counter and said, “Don’t worry, I’ll take care of it,” and paid for my drink. I tried to thank here but she just smiled and left. Most of the people here are like that. I even stopped putting a gun in my purse.
Now. When I first started going out dressed it bothered me. Then I told myself. “Hey beautiful, you’re not dressing for them, you’re dressing for yourself.” The next day, I put on my best dress and the rest of what went with it, drove down town, got out of the car stuck my chest out my head up and said to myself, “I hope their looking, because I’m beautiful and I’m going to show my stuff.” Now I go out feeling happy.
Everytime i get dressed i try and go out. I started making a list of goals for me to to every years and i would have several activities that envolved me being out of the house. I try and present as female as often as I can when dressed and when I do i want to show it off. Whether it is going to a park and taking picutes by myself of hitting a coffee shop and clothing store. Evenetually my list had nothing about going out because it had become a part of my routine and life.
I have been crossdressing from the age of 12 years old, experimenting with my mother’s lingerie and shoes. This experience reinforced my need to crossdress to the point I now need to dress as often as I can and occasionally I go out fully dressed girly shopping trips to buy new underwear, outfits and shoes. I have a friend who owns a bridal shop and since my very first visit to her shop she has encouraged me to visit her en femme. I have learned a lot from Wendy (that is her name) and as a result have mastered wearing makeup, walking in high heeled shoes and looking as presentable as a woman as I possibly can. I am now more confident being out and about dressed as a women and even though I may occasionally receive nasty comments I am happy in that I am now so confident to go out as my alter ego I view it more of a problem for them than me. It is part of the thrill being out shopping and chatting to the sales assistants asking their advice on what outfits would fit me best. Being a crossdresser is not something to be ashamed of, it is something to embrace and enjoy because there is nothing like this kind of experience to make living worthwhile.
I have enjoyed dressing in women cloths at an early age make up was my fav thing to do . Once I got in my early 30s is when I really started crossdressing a lot. The more I did the more I new that I really am a women inside everything came to light because when I was young I was very Fem and was bullied a lot . But that is ok it is what it is :). I learned to not care I am who I am . I started my transition Nov 1/22 and it is going awesome . I am noticing that I am now going breast and that is so awesome , I am feeling so Happier than I have ever felt in my life :).

I usually only leave my place as a woman if I’m going to a event to cosplay so I plan to be trick or treating as catwoman from batman returns but if I can lose all my body/facial hair and ditch my mask/items in the attached image to my garage then perhaps I could get a pedicure and manicure at a nail salon with
my sister-in-law while dressed up as my alter ego Rachel.
