I find that if I do go shopping when dressed, be it a charity shop or a supermarket, if I act natural then others hardly give me a first glance and if they do notice that I’m a man dressed as a woman they take it in their stride and go about their daily business and leave me to mine.

So my advice is just act naturally, look as if you belong and you’ll blend in.

Of course, it doesn’t always work. I once asked a sales assistant in a charity shop if I could try on a dress and top and she turned to the manageress and asked in a loud voice, “Can this young gentleman try these clothes on?” The manageress attitude was certainly I could if I could be quick about it as the shop was due to close. She seemed more concerned about leaving on time than having a tranny in the shop!

I hope this helps.

Yours,
Nikki.
