Going to bars and clubs was fine and easy, a couple drinks can curb the anxiety pretty well. As of late, I've been just going wherever, whenever in full female garb. I renewed my drivers licence with cute little kinda pigtail buns on my head, and yesterday I closed on my new house in a pretty casual professional outfit with a pair of cute heels! This is getting more and more fun and really addictive!

Congrats!  I am pleased that things have gone so well for you. 

A cautionary note:  I hate to rain your parade or prick your balloon, but I hope that you will have the inner resolve to handle the hurt if and when things go south.  It might be just a hateful look or an unkind comment heard from distance, but the harsh reality is there are intolerant individuals in our world who are not above voicing their prejudice.  Hang tough!

I admire your courage.   

Yay!  That's just awesome Pansy!

Yes Katy, and Thanx!
I do get a LOT of that, but water off the duck. I think being heavily tattooed has worked in my favor. No violence at all up to this point just keeping my head high and shoulders back! Probably the most difficult thing is being and seeming generally proud of myself. That remains a work in progress. Thanx to all for the kind words and support.

Have fun Pansy.
