Apologies if this post sounds blog-ish, but I just had to share. Yesterday my sis-in-law took me to the nail salon, and we both got pedicures. It was my first time, and I've gotta say that while my feet look great now, it was kind of a weird experience. It was very obvious that I was in a Girls Only Zone, and it made me a little uncomfortable. The girl who did my feets didn't smile at all, whether she was having a bad day or just didn't like dealing with guys... I dunno.
Do my fellow andros ever feel this way when they do things outside of thier birth sex gender roles? Like they're walking into a club uninvited?

Yeah actually, all the time. There seems to be some aura of a taboo-zone whenever I try to break outside the gender roles. Not in my own mind, but in the atmosphere.
