Introducing Shayla

Recommended Posts

Hello,

I never thought I would find myself crossdressing again until the opportunity presented itself when I would travel to conferences for my job. As a father and a husband, I don't have the freedom to dress whenever I want, so having my own space to dress up is very special to me. When I dress up as Shayla, I'm beautiful and confident.

I love to dress up for the admiration. I hate to brag, but I'm very passable as a woman. When gawkers and admirers look at me and treat me like a lady, it's the greatest feeling. I love putting on the pantyhose because I have shapely legs, the fingernails and of course the makeup.

In September, I actually checked into a hotel room during the day just to dress up. Theres a hotel in the same building as my job and I knew this was a good opportunity. It was also the first time Shayla got to walk out in public in the hotel lobby. I was so nervous at first, but extremely nervous when I accidently locked myself outside my room. My card key didn't work(for the first time) while the working key was in the room. Baptism by fire! The cleaning lady was sweet and polite after I had to call the concierge to unlock my room. Good thing I had practiced my female voice. When I was in the lobby, I spent most of the time walking around pretending to be on my phone, and Sat down looking at it as well. I'm a very self-conscious person, but it was a good feeling to know the world still operated around Shayla.

Even though it was a few hours, I really needed that time to just crossdress. It took so much time to get the clothes and store all my Shayls 'gear' in my secret storage unit near my job. I love my family, but I'm going to keep Shayla a secret for reasons that I care not to go into for now. I don't know when I'll be able to dress up again. But I'm glad that I can share my feelings on this forum. Thank goodness for pictures.

Thanks for sharing your experience with us. It brings back memories of feeling and doing many of the same things.

I'm glad you've joined us here. Simply knowing i wasn't alone and having a place to discuss various issues safely made a big difference to me. Hopefully you'll find the same.

You may want to write a post just to say hi in the introductions forum.

Hugs,

Charlize

Hi Shayla

Welcome :)

I've never checked into a hotel as Tracy - that really sounds good!

It's even better when something goes wrong and you recover successfully. That's when you really know things are good.

Many more times like that!

Thanks Tracy, I actually checked in as my male self and dressed up in the room. When I was on the phone I simply could've been 'my' wife, girlfriend or sister. Teehee

      I have shared my doses and levels a lot and no one has said anything. Yeah I put alarms on my phone to make sure I don't miss a dose. I tend to forget a lot of stuff on what needs to be done. I have been also using the calendar on my phone a lot. I missed an appointment because I didn't put it in my calendar.

      Feeling better than I did yesterday

      It's official. My doctor wants me retested after the last results (too high). The test, that she scheduled, was likely too close to the dose. She did tell me to keep the increased dose instead of reverting to my old one, probably because my "too high" wasn't that high. I don't know what the forum's stance is on results, knowing full well the rules against sharing dosage, so I'll keep those under wraps until I know if it's OK to share those. Less to say, it was over the range she feels comfortable with by about 50%, but taken a day earlier than the midpoint value she was expecting. Grains of salt everywhere!   Of course I messed everything up too, missing my dose for the first time, yesterday. I had to re-reschedule the lab I setup yesterday to Monday from Saturday after taking my shot this morning to avoid the same issue with the testing. I woke up and thought, "Thursday, what do I have to do for work today? OH -crap-, IT'S THURSDAY! I missed my shot yesterday!"   Anyhoo. Question for the ladies: does anyone else get a mild zen-like high after their shots/doses? My brain feels lighter and I'm happier and I feel a lot more girlie this morning. 💃

      I'm into my fourth month of HRT and just titrated up in dosage after my last checkup. This is my life. 🤭   I have yet to grow out of my B cup bras, but I have noticed more fullness, having started with gynecomastia. I am seeing less gapping in bras with my right breast, which has always been smaller than my left. My areolae are slightly pronounced/projected now, that are larger but not vastly greater in circumference, and I have noticed little to no nipple changes beyond their painful sensitivity.

      -It's not a sprint it's an endurance.  -It won't happen overnight. -Seek a gender therapist. -You might lose a lot of support but hang in there. If they truly loved and cared about you they would stay. -Retail therapy helps and plus it builds your wardrobe and shoes. -Makeup is an artwork. It takes lots of practice to do it right and watch YouTube videos on how to put it on or someone who is knowledgeable. -You are going to have roller coaster emotions so don't rush anything.

      You have grown more breast tissue than most some only get one size and that is it. I went from 42C to 42DD but I'm also taking supplements. It's risky to take the supplements but to me it's worth the risk.

      I'd echo some of the advice in Imma Asher's letter in the book To My Trans Sisters:   Take your time.  See yourself. Be proud.  Be strong. Indulge in the transformation.  Read more.  Put down the brow pencil.  Live.  And be happy.

      I hope that there is some kind of justice. It's very sad and it doesn't even mention the family and I could only imagine how they feel.
