How do you feel when somone says something feminine to you?

[Anonymous]

Georgette, this is an interesting thread, I had an interesting experience recently when a woman with a child , who was reaching over my trolley while shopping, said ” wait until the lady has finished” to the kid. I did have mixed feelings as I was waring my usual jeans and shirt , I wondered if she was joking at first but believe that she was genuine.
Also one time an Aboriginal kid { about 14} called me a “Transvestite” as I passed, I was offended at first but realized later that he was right, it just seemed too sophisticated a name for him to call me { I was used to more basic and crude names!!!!}

Hi All

Yes this is an interesting topic. The word I remember that made my life was when I was dressed and shopping and the sales lady asked if I wanted to try it on. I guess I had been always wanting to be asked that although I had never thought about it at all. It was in my early “going in public” days and it made me so strong.

Other comments are when I am made as a girl when in boy mode, thoses ones make me smile and feel like I am heading in the right direction in my life.

You get a lot of neg comments when you are in that middle of the road, but it seems that as you become more sure of your self that people just dont notice and you pass easy. I have not been made in public for a long time, and if they do they dont mind.

Shops normally just want your money so they are happy and if you go about your business in a normal happy manner you get so many nice comments that make you smile and keeps you going.

In the process of becoming 24/7 there is a time when someone says something feminine to you. Sometimes you may think the person comenting may need glasses but that is a different story.

I was in malish mode but my long hair was everywhere, bad hair day and under certain hair conditions sitting in the car, I look femele regardless of clothes.
I stopped by road works and the lolly pop man said ” You can go Love ” . The passenger window was open. This is the first direct public coment I recieved and had a bag of mixed feelings.

I am opening this topic to how you felt soon after someone said something feminine to you for the first time

Old thread but worth a new comment. Recently I had to travel the world, and unfortunately I had to do it with my old passport. My old passport shows my old name and “Mr” …. Very embarrassing, but something I had to live with given the time between getting notified of the flight and the flight itself… however…

I am sure you’re all aware that when spending 24 hours on a flight (in stages of 13 hours without a stop) looking your best is just not an option, in fact for most of the flight I had no make up on at all, and towards the end of the flight I seriously needed a shave…!

All that said everyone greeted me with “Ma’am”, “Miss” or “love”… very flattering. Even more so was on the way back from the USA when the poor chef got really muddled, I had changed seats with a young girl so she could sit with her family. As the airline tickets were in the same name of my passport (ie “Mr”) he had a great deal of trouble locating me on the manifest, until I explained who I was an that I was transgendered…. then I thought about it and thought what a compliment, even without makeup, needing a shave, a red blooded male was convinced I was not “Mr” but “Ms” or “Miss”….

Note: the ‘shave’ is to remove the white hairs that only electrolysis will remove permanently – all/most of the dark hairs have been taken care of by LASER hair removal over the last 2 years.

Whilst spending a week as Joanne I walked to our local shops. Yes was picked by all but what the hell, I was treated just as a lady. On the way back I passed many people, most had a quick look then averted their eyes. Then one lady probably late thirties looked smiled and said “Good Day”. I felt 10ft tall and you couldn’t wipe the smile off my face all that day. Just a small thing but a moment to treasure.

One day while out with Kelly on new years eve (day), we were waiting in line to get a few drinks. I stood back while kelly ordered, when it was the turn of a guy standing a bit in front of me, he just turned to me and said “that lady was here before me” which made me feel pretty good.
But then about 2 minutes later, I nearly got ran into by a teenage girl and when she looked up and saw me (I dont know if this was because she was about to run into me or that she ‘read me” or both) and took a moment and said “oh my god”

It’s such a shame in a way that we have to dote on societies ‘approval’ or compliments to have feelings of endorsement. But, thats the way it is…..I love getting positive comments as much as anyone.
A few weeks ago, I took my 9 year old boy to school ( my old primary school) but I forgot his Tuck-Shop lunch order & money. So I went back and when I gave it to the tuckshop I got talking to the Tuck Shop lady.

We got on very well and we chatted for like five minuites.
Later that day, when she saw my son she said…. “Hi, I was chatting to your Mom today !”
As I was only wearing pants & a T-Shirt with my hair back & no make up…I felt great. Even his Mum had a good laugh about it!
But my Phychiatrist said….”well, sometimes people are just being polite ! “
She is now my ex-Phychiatrist ! ( not the only reason.) How insensetive !
I love being offered a seat and having the door opened for me or being let through first.
I mostly get called M’ame or Lady or somesuch . I have only been rudely (arrogantly) called “Sir” in stores that are very Trade-orientated like commercial Electronics, etc.

Hugs

Yesterday some GGs staffing a shop (three girls ranging in ages 18-25) commented that they didn’t pick me as anything but a GG. I asked them if they were kidding or just being nice, they all replied no, they were just a little surprised when I entered the shop because of how tall I am (they said the thought, “wow, that’s a tall girl”.) I asked if they thought I was GG until I spoke, they said no (my ex Melissa always said my voice was a dead set give away – I have been working on it though.) It turns out that they only found out I was transgendered because the person I was with mentioned something that triggered their curiosity and then they noticed my adams apple.

To say that I felt like a million bucks is an understatement..!

Take care,

It’s funny, but I seem to be mistaken for a woman just about every week, even when I’m not dressed. When I’m out with my wife we always get referred to as “ladies” (ie. what’ll it be ladies?, can I help you ladies? etc).
Benefits of being a shorty I guess.
I used to just laugh. Now I just take it as normal. I have never been offended.

.

Happens to me as well, when I’m in Rachel mode. Still gives me a thrill, but I’m happy to admit to being shallow like that As a bloke I generally look too blokey for people to think anything otherwise. The beard helps

The first time I was with my wife dressed in male mode having coffee when the waitress asked if she “could get anything else for you ladies” and it certainly gave me a big buzz.
Even now it still gives me a wonderful feeling everytime it happens even though I am getting quite used to it. At worked I am only referred to in the feminine form, but I was in Chinchilla today dressed in my awful work clothes when I stopped to get a sausage sizzle from the Rotary stand outside the supermarket. The lady said to the cook, “and one for this lady too please”.

It might depend on what mode you are in.

in male mode any feminine comments are most likely used in the derogatory.

In female mode any feminine comments make me fell fantastic.

On the funny side.
I have a male shirt that is a bit flowery and my wife does not like me wearing it, but she is quite happy for us to go out while I am in full fem mode. It all depends on which charactor we have on display.

As time goes by the fem charactor feels more comfortable. The male one is quite hard to do.

My natural inclination is to gently stroke the cat not kick the dog.

Causing pain and suffering is easy it can be done just with carelessness, but to remove fear and create happiness in another living creature requires intelligence and skill and demonstrates wisdoml.

When I am in femme mode it happens quite frequently, but it still makes me feel really good when I do get referred to as a lady.

A few weeks ago I was in male mode, but wearing more androgynous clothes than usual; I was in a shop along with a couple of women when the assistant asked if she could “Help you ladies?”. The fact that she was obviously including me in that question did feel really good.
