You look nice. I am not quite sure where you live, but my experience tells that most people in rural or suburban areas are just too much ordinary. In the case of the U.S., most women are overweighted, and being slim alone can make you prominent. When I was in a suburban area of the U.S., one of my neighbors said that he paid attention to a strange person in the mall because he/she was so much slim, and later found that it was me. I just wear plain women's stretchable jeans with a plain tee.
Yes. People here stare me, too . The frequency varies with place and people. Usually aged and uneducated people tend to stare more. In big cities, people do not care so much about me, because there are a lot of queer people. I live in a kind of rural area, and most people do not care so much about their appearance. Despite the very strong sun, they do not wear sun cream in summer. I thought my height was the major factor. I once posted a photo here about 2 years ago:

I think I look too much different from most of people here, regardless of their gender. My height is not the only reason. Height, face, body shape, makeup and clothes all combined make me look striking. It is my destiny.
