I don’t mind people checking me out. I actually enjoy the attention to be honest. It makes me proud to think that some of these people might actually be admiring the way I dress and put myself together. There will always be creepy people out there somewhere, but I’ve never been disparaged for how I dress — usually the opposite occurs and people compliment me on something I’m wearing. Many people have told me how courageous I am to publicly dress in all women’s clothing. I make every attempt to dress as well or better than most women dress and it’s pretty easy for me to pull that part off.
Being stared at I can totally handle. Not only am I used to it but, having bright, artificially coloured hair, makes stares almost obligatory.
But when the stares come with questions, and the question is inappropriate I will say as much and nothing more. Stares and questions are far better than the assault and mockery I endured when I first transitioned.
