Sorry people but the posts are getting boring, again.

Anyhow I was having a bad week and decided to do some retail T. OK I have cash and please I am not trying to put down my S&Bs who are struggling.

So I went to Harbour Town (it's on Google) but I thought as a blast I would go androgynous. The reason behind this was that I had been there a few weeks ago and totally accepted as female, so I wondered if I was accepted as andro. I had no wig, 1 inch gold hoops, lippie and mascara, gym 3/4 pants (female) Totally tucked and smooth.

The only people who laughed and stared were young teenage girls ( 13-15?). Some guys looked at me aggressively, but maybe more disgust.   Shop people not even a blink. I did ask that a skirt to die for, was either a 10 or 12 and she just sent me to the change room and had other size available. I bought a top, shoes and two rings, both pinkies :angel:

Not one single sale assistant gave a blink, whether they were 17 or 70. NO dramas.

The previous time I had gone as complete Cindy and had not attracted any attention. But I deliberately this time I wanted to do the  experiment. It taught me many things, how far I have come. It wasn't until after that i thought what was I doing? Here I am not going FT as yet and going to test the boundaries of life. Weird.


I think I have now let go of fear. I think that what today taught  me. I''m just a normal female. And Oh Goddses  do guys hate being in under wear shops, or do they?

Ah, the thrill of the hunt!!   Wish I could get into something smaller than a 18 skirt and 22 top!  I'm not jealous (well not much!!).

Sounds like an interesting experiment, and it is interesting that there was more reaction than when you went as Cindy.

  I bought a bra from the local Bras n Things last week, and the sales staff were friendly and welcoming to me (and my $).  A couple of customers looked a bit confused but seemed to take their cue from the reaction of the staff, and relaxed.
I have decided to  spend my money on laser face zapping, then will probably look at voice coaching. By then I will be starting HRT ,I hope, and will be able to get a better idea of my clothes sizes. Not a lot of point in splashing out until then.

More power to your purse sis!  Sandra.
