hang in there, Girl. we have to take the bad days with the good days, all we can do is hope for mostly good days :)

people go around judging other people all the time, if they didn't judge you for your clothes they would just find other things to judge you on. just stay strong, and try to live your life one day at a time and not let people get to ya (well, most of the time ;) )

What Beth said!  :laugh:

So true though. Long before I started transitioning people picked on me for my size and obvious geek aptitude. Now if they read me they pick on my transness... to hell with what people think. You gotta be you girlfriend!

Don't let the idiots get you down.  You are you.  Let your inner light shine out and illuminate their dank, fetid lives.  One day they may thank you for it.

*hugs*

You don't have to be ashamed at all. If someone has a problem with it then that's their problem. Geez I remember when I was embarrassed to even be seen buying female clothing in a store, and now I live full time and never even think twice about just being myself anywhere and everywhere. As the others here have said people are going to judge you no matter what, it's unfortunately a part of human nature. But though it may be difficult at first, it gets easier the more you just let go and not worry about what other people think. There will come a time when you will look back and wonder what it was you were ever so afraid of.

Goddess, I remember being so terrified of buying clothes.  I am so glad those days are over.

gata, it gets better, trust us.  Just keep doing your own thing, and everything else will fall into place.  It just takes time. :icon_hug:

I know how difficult it can be at first, but as others have said above, it does get easier.

You are YOU ..... and you have a right to BE you, so unless people are physically attacking you - which is a different subject - then just get on with it.

Unless you are a really good Pass, then there will always be a few a55holes around who will give you a bit of verbal abuse. Don't let it get to you hun.

What some ignorant or vicious moron thinks or says about you isn't worth worrying over - don't waste your life fretting about it.

If you really knew what was going on in their lives, you might just find that they really think you are brave of living free.  But what is the difference between you and them is that you are just being true to yourself and not a cover up like them.
