Quote from: Captain.Val on August 12, 2026, 03:09:38 AMAlana, thanks for those beautiful updates. I admire your "their problem not mine" attitude, this rocks. I'm still learning but it's the way.

@Captain.Val, it definitely is the way. the early days of my journey I had a lot of anxiety that people would notice that I was expressing any femininity, and ridicule me for it.

I've been looking online for new clothes for the fall and winter. I found a few pairs of women's jeans I like. I want to lean more into androgyny, but not have it be obvious that I'm wearing women's clothing. It's a very fine line I'm trying to skirt.

You will not skirt a fine line if you wear a skirt.  Ha.

It is fun to look at clothes.  Make space in your closet or dresser for your ever expanding wardrobe!

Always stay cheerful, be polite, kind, and understanding. Accepting yourself as the woman you are is very liberating.  Never underestimate the appreciation and respect of authenticity.  Help connect a person to someone that may be able to help that person.  Be brave, be strong.  A TRUE friend is a treasure.  Relationships are very important, people are important, and the sooner we all realize that the better off the world will be.  Try a little kindness.  Be generous with your time, energy, wisdom, and resources.   Inconvenience yourself to help someone.   I am a brown eyed, brown haired woman.

I've started swapping women's jeans into my rotation. If they don't have a design on the back pockets, it's less obvious.

One thing I noticed is a pair of womes jean shorts I bought hug tight and actually shows I have some hips and they don't need a belt.

The pockets on ladies jeans are not as deep so it's affecting my ability to conceal carry in a back pocket. 😝

Still wearing male shirts but smaller and neck buttons open all the way to show some vneck.

I'm getting misgendered more often, in the good way. 💚

Rochelle, this is what I'm going to try. I've found two pairs I like that I'm going to buy. I know my old men's jeans aren't going to fit me anymore. They didn't fit last fall. 😆
I'm try my to walk a fine line in what I wear. You CCW?

Most every day for more than the last 15 yrs or so. Recently not when I'm wearing women's jeans. I may need to to swap to an ankle carry, but then some jeans are tight there as well, so looking into it. I can Appendix carry but that can be bothersome if I sit alot. 💚

There are many nice concealed-carry purses if that is an option.
