Apparently no packer, Melissa. Must've just been a fold in the cloth or something.

I didn't have the tattoo yet with the first guy and the second never saw it.  Also, I have had several guys give up their seats on the train for me (no ricki, they didn't see my tattoo either).  So it seems it is far from dead.

Chivalry is not dead but that has actually created a slight problem for me.  It's very hard for me to make the mental change from male to female as relates to accepting that chivalry, as opposed to offering it.  For example, accepting a male opening a door for me while I'm en femme or my not offering to buy a round of drinks when I feel it's my turn (while sitting at a table with a male).  Just two examples but I could list more.  It's very hard to adjust to having things done for you that you feel are your responsibility due to your male mindset.

Hmm, I never had that mindset.  Holding doors for other people was about the extent of what I did, but I realize if I continue to do that, it would make it hard to pass.  Buying a round of drinks?  Hmm, never did that one.  Sorry, I wasn't a very good male.  The socialization never stuck.
