Ah, the only internationally recognized holiday of the crossdressing world is upon us again, & I had an interesting experience shopping for Halloween costumes & party decorations with Betty.
We were looking around at the mass-produced costumes, me mostly cursing about the oversexed women's and girl's costumes (the girls' costumes show more skin than the ones for adult men, for crying out loud) and Betty thought maybe she'd figure out a costume around an interesting wig. But: I found myself getting uncomfortable when she started trying them on. It was just too much of the past, & started messing with my sense of her gender. It was a Big Deal when she finally got to grow her hair long enough, and have it styled unisex/feminine, that the wigs brought me right back to when she couldn't do that and had to have men's cuts (since she was a leading man onstage) and so had to wear wigs in order to go out "en femme."
Happy Halloween to y'all ! But don't get fat with candies ~.
Who knows, maybe next year I'll feel confident enough to put on a woman's costume and make it my first non-kid costume !
(would sure feel great, but I wouldn't know where to wear it : I'm not into parties)
