Yep I was called a "Young Lady" today at work.  Just to clarify.  I was in a t shirt with a reflector vest and blue work pants.  My hair is in a ponytail.  While at work I practice on my voice when I can.  Anyway, I was helping a customer who appeared to be in his sixties with his stuff he was dropping off (recycle center) and then he said "Thank you young lady".  I must have look at least in my mid forties.  Actually I am pushinhg 60 myself.  I was on CLOUD NINE.   I try to come across as female when non of my coworkers are helping me.  Otherwise I must appear adrogenous to a lot of people based on the looks I get from the customers.  They seem confused as to my being male or female.  I mostly get "sirred" .

Also he said that loudly and the female coworker heard him.  So I got a little teasing from her about the "young" part.

I wish it could happen more often.  In time it will.

You must look simply amazing i think because thats a beautiful compliment and i hope you receive it more often because words that makes us smile are worth being heard more and more.

Yes those words are great to hear.  At work I am androgenouos as we wear uniforms.  Usually I wear a shirt with my male name on it.  But occassionally will say thank you ladies.  I just love to hear that.

Thats great i sadly find comfort when i am called a b**** simply because where i am boys cant be b*****y only jerks haha not the same but more or less same concept , i think we just love to know we do stuff the way we should be.

Yesterday was one of THOSE days, that had started so-so. Kind of a flat-hair day, um.

Going to my electrolysis app. I was greeted: "You look great!", which sure put a smile on my face. The girl got a nice big hug, plus my electrolysist um.

Ok, I had dressed in tights, faint silver on black leopard print, wearing a "waterfall" style top over it, short in front (pussy pelmet like). Followed by another "waterfall" style charcoal cardigan, a black shiny wool knitted scarf, and fire-engine red suede booties :-)

Hair just clipped back and D&G sunglasses used as an Alice Band. Black leather shoulder hand-bag.

In any case, later on going to the Post Office I get approached by a female customer: "Aren't you the LADY (oh, oh :-) I always see walking your dog... ?:-).
Next the post Office attendant, they're usually grumpy,  tells me I must only pay next month (my car license), else I forfeit this current month --- and with the sweetest of smiles, uh, now how nice it that.

Going to the shops (supermarket) I most always get a friendly reception and "Have a lovely day" --- and on coming out going to my car, an elderly couple asks me (I had two full bags in my hands) if they can HELP me?! Hello!?

By now I am on cloud nine forgetting for a while all my usual $$$ related unpleasant thoughts.

In all my living memory nothing like such EVER, EVER would have happened to me in boy-guise.

A day like that is worth all the tears and unpleasantness of transition, I just wanted to hug the world!! :-)
