Do you think it’s important to “pass” as a woman? This is something a lot of crossdressers and transgender women think about.
Is passing really a goal worth pursuing?
I’ve shared my thoughts on whether or not I think passing matters in this blog post. (Spoiler alert: It doesn’t.)
But now, I’m curious to know what YOU think:
Do you care about passing as a woman? Or are you proud to be seen as the classy crossdresser or transgender woman that you are?
Please take my “Passing Poll” and share your thoughts below!
Love,

At first, passing didn’t matter, but as time has passed and HRT and SRS have had their effect, passing is more important. Plus, I’m short. I almost never get misgendered any longer and feel safer when I’m out in public as a result. It’s not the ultimate importance, but it’s more important than at one time. I was once more open about being trans, but now I don’t mention it unless it comes up and someone asks me directly if I am.
Here we go again. Just what does passable mean? Being a woman means a great many things and not every woman aspires to have completed the “Great List of Women”. Is it to be able to walk thru a crowd and have no-one notice? Is it to be able to sing as a female and fool everyone. Is it to be a Royal…possessed of literature and be well poised? I think that to possess as many traits as you can and be a loving gentile person, to be helpful to others, be able to dress sensibly for an occassion, and to at least bear sympathy for others…well those are the marks of a “passable woman”. Beauty and to be able to perform killer make-up is not one of the humanities. Be all you can be……a woman.
I love to dress up and wear all my girly stuff I love wearing heels but the more I do it the more I want to stay as Abigail but u can’t cuz my family won’t understand so I will lose very thing I have worked for

Being passable is very important and I strive to do that everyday. I am a large woman ( tall ) so it’s difficult for me to pass. However, i’ve been at this a long time and if people judge me on my appearance and don’t like it, fuck em.
I enjoy being feminine you might I am more feminine than
feminine and yes I do the best I can to look like how I
feel feminine, and the fact that I am 5′ 6″ does help a
lot.
Alicia, I totally agree with Samantha….You are gorgeous, girl! Passing, never worry now days, did decades ago. At 73 (October) I used to worry in the 1960’s,in my 20’s.
Time and practice reduced that worry. Even my wife says when we are out together, if I am dressed I totally ACT LIKE A WOMAN! THAT’S KINDA THE WHOLE POINT!
Love your look, Alicia.You are adorable.
ENJOY BEING YOU….T.J.
Very Pretty!!
You look beautiful
Nbeing tall for a woman, Alicia, helps in this day and age… U and I r close.. 5,6 to my 5 7″”. U look great, also. Toodles
You look gorgeous and no one would ever know you were not born a chick. You are so pretty xx
I always like when I pass and it happens most of the time but I could care less if they read me. I’m proud to be who I am and that is a crossdresser
you look great
If it wasn’t important to me to be passable I wouldn’t bother. I try to not leave a stone unturned and even have gone through some voice training.
Love you all

Given the limits I have I’m happy enough to just be me. If I pass, great. But if not I’m still me and still happy.
I would love to be able to pass as a woman all the time, but I also find it very sexy and erotic when I am out an seen as a crossdresser. Sometimes it is more to just do it, and knowing others see me, but not know who I am. The secret of not being found out. But at the same time though I like to shop for women’s clothing and have others assist me and actually have their opinions on what I am trying on. That I have found very exciting and to know women actually like to help me in my choices. Was fearful at first, but now, I enjoy it.
