...... nobodies noticed me the times I've been out dressed mostly because I'm lucky and I pass and/or people just don't pay attention or care,
And you are right about luck, particularly when you understand LUCK stands for Laboring Under Correct Knowledge. This will automatically qualify you to pass in public. However I tend to think most people are too pre occupied with themselves to notice or care that you are even in public.
I tried a little experiment a while ago. I went to a busy mall with a friend of mine and I asked her to walk several paces behind me and gauge the looks/reaction of anyone who deliberately looked at me. Without being conceited, more than 80% of the looks were in the class of "WOW, she looks alright. Dresses well and looks well cared for." The other 20% ranged between "Huh? I'm not really sure what she is, maybe over done to Now she can't be true." And there was the vast majority that didn't even see me. My friend was particularly fascinated by the double looks and smiles of the men who reacted. Talk about funny.
So in fact, the results tend to prove a theory of mine that a well dressed/presented TG woman will be looked upon as just that, a well presented woman, not our preconceived idea of "Oh my god!!! I've just been 'clocked'. "
But as for children/teenagers, they are super perceptive about their own self image, hence their 'radars' are always up looking for "How do I compare" with the rest of society, and when we appear on the scene they are able to immediately assess how well our confidence stands out. The more confident we are about our identity, the harder it is for them to 'clock' us. Pre schoolers are the exception.
Keep up you mighty effort. You are doing so well.
Be safe, well and happy
Lotsa huggs
Catherine
