That is a good gender neutral presentation. In what ways were you accepted as female?

Nice choices.  Sometimes we just don't have a choice, and we have to be ourselves.  I still don't really pass in anything closer than strangers passing me on the street, but that hasn't stoped me from going full time.

My personal transition path included medical changes.  The path others take may require no medical intervention, or different care.  We each find our own path. I provide these dates for the curious.

Congratulations, that took courage.   Something I'm still working on.  Hopefully,  next time will be easier.

I like your outfit and need a a pair of those jeans.

Well, it was a quick lunch, and I don't know as I was 'accepted as female' so much as just being myself in public.

So I would say, I accept myself, and my wife accepts me.

Then does that mean you didn't do anything specific to present as female?

Not sure?  Aside from makeup and cloths to reflect who I am...

Maybe you could describe what you mean a bit more?
