Voyage 2

[Guest sienna]

I thought for sure it would be awhile before I got to go out again. Turns out it happened again today! This time it was more than just a ride. My wife ran and got some food today for lunch and then stopped by the house and picked my daughter and I up. I was fully dressed in a fairly casual outfit. Jeans, designed light blue patterned top with a dark brown cami underneath and flats. I was wearing some fashion jewelry at first, but took it off before we got to the park because I thought it was too much. It was fantastic! I hardly ate a bite I was so ecstatic. While we were there sitting at a picnic bench eating our neighbor that lives diagonally across the street from us showed up with his kid. The good thing is we don't really talk with them or even see them that much, but we have seen each other a dozen or so times with me in guy mode. He walked by about 20 feet away and kept on his way. Phew!

My wife was cool with it although at one point she opened up about being nervous about how far I wanted to take everything. We sat and talked for awhile about me dressing and if there would be any transitioning. I said I did wish I could take hormones at some point for breasts, skin, and everything although it's highly likely I wouldn't be able to ever do that with my job and full family. However, she doesn't want me to do that either even later in life. We talked a lot. I feel like the real me when I am dressed. I also have a huge concern personally that if I go out in public that I must pass. Maybe I don't need to take hormones if I can have the satisfaction of passing and blending in as a woman? I don't know. I know I would like it, but she needs me to compromise with no hormones if I want to stay with her and the kids. On the plus side she is open for me getting electrolysis, getting my ears done, understands I want to work on my voice, possible nose job (reduce size) at some point maybe, and she said I could get another wig that draws less attention. I'm a little bit of a redhead now. She gave me a few tips while we were there too... sit up straight, chest up and out. What an amazing week it has been!

Hi Sienna,

Very nice on being out with wife dressed again, you are on a roll ! I was chuckling about the part with your neighbor passing by, lots of what if's come to mind if he had seen your wife and decided to socialize. I have been seen by my neighbors in various female things at times, as I am not doing a very good job of hiding my girl at times. I have reached a point in life where I just think I should not worry about what other people perceive or might think realizing this approach can be risky, but hey it's about being ourselves and if this is what we like to do, so be it. Interesting reading your comments about transitioning or not to. We all must make our own individual decisions and in the case of having a family this may involve some give and take. I also have a wife (26 years) and 2 older daughters that live at home. I see it as a fine line to walk when deciding between what is good for "me" vs what benefits the "greater good". Sounds like your confidence is growing being out Sienna, enjoy !

Hugs -

Interesting time for you, Sienna. As far as passing goes, I wouldn't be overly concerned with it. Most people don't read me. A few do but that's okay. I just keep on going.
