I hated it before transition. Stuff didn't fit, I hated the clothes. Now, men's stuff fits me and I can just go in, get a pair of 32/30 jeans, try em on and buy em. 4 minutes total. I managed to hit three different stores and pick up jeans, dress shoes for work and a jacket, all within 15 minutes last week.

So I guess I still don't like "shopping" in that try stuff on, wander around and take forever sense. But buying clothes is fine for me now.

Before I discovered that I was TG, I never understood why women could shop for hours. Now I enjoy it very much-and I can spend a lot of time at it.

I don't like shopping unless it is with a friend or I am shopping for someone else.

I love the idea if shopping, I picture all the lovely adorable-type things I could wear, then I go to the shops and am dissapointed.

That what I use to do before TS, Jillieann came out, but now I go looking for just the right thing for a ....... whatever and I love trying lots of stuff on to see how it looks and fits.  Yes I do often have a general list, like I need a new bra or top or shoes ect..  I just can't get enough of it. I was out for 6 hours Saturday and was not done but had to go home.
Oh well next time I will find just what I want, what ever that is. Or manybe not.

hehehehe I love frocks... anywho, get me your measurements... I do some of my own clothing design, maybe I can cook something up for ya pretty cheap hehehe

HATE shopping.  If I'm on my own/with someone that understands me to a certain extent, then I can simply go to the boys' section, pick up a pair of size 16 (boys', not men) pants and walk out. 

If not, then they drag me to the girls'.  It can take 6-8 hours and DOZENS of stores before I find a single pair of girls' pants that fit. 

Shirts are easy--men's large.  My mother finally gave up trying to make me wear shirts that fit and the last time my parents bought me clothes, my mother socked my stepfather in the arm for trying to buy me a men's small (I'm a women's 0 on top and about a 4 on bottom) and told him to buy me the large or I wouldn't wear it.

I do NOT like shopping and will avoid it at all costs.

That said, I WILL shop ENDLESSLY for Sophie.  I like shopping for her.  My one exception, I suppose.

Shortish and tubby.  

I love shopping for clothing though, since I haven't learned to pass 100% yet, the weird looks people give me as I look through the womens section are pretty discouraging.
