Totally agree, Stacie.  Before transition, if I needed something, I would usually be in and out of the store in 15 minutes or less.  But when shopping for women's clothes, I could spend hours (not to mention spending half my salary.  :P).

 

When just starting out, you will spend more because you're building a wardrobe from scratch.  Use discount stores and even places like Goodwill if you want to save money.  Clothes, as I'm sure you know by now, don't come cheap.  That goes double for shoes.

I have to agree! There is lots of interesting variation in female clothes, whereas men's were so boring most of the time. It was a lot easier to decide what was right though. A quick scan and either buy or leave.

 

Interestingly, and I am not sure whether it was male or female or neither as they are somewhat feminine, but the longest time I spent on buying any single item was over an hour on a pair of hiking boots. I went through two shop assistants in that time! This was immediatly before I started openly wearing feminine and female clothing so I am not sure, but maybe just me. I needed to get the perfect size and look. The ones I bought were lighter than many pairs of shoes and no more obvious than many types of trainers but they had to be right!

 

I find that glasses take a while as well.

Oddly i have found even shopping for groceries more fun and that is after being full time for years.  The excitement of simply being me has perhaps worn off but the joy in being able to relate to the other women in the store is so much greater in an amazing way.  When i used to shop i felt alone where as now i am part of a community that seems more willing to support and help each member.  I can now smile at children and not be perceived as some kind of threat.  I find myself dancing down the isles of the grocery store with a smile on my face.  Now that's a real transition!

 

Hugs,

YES!  This is so true.  I am not afraid to speak to anyone in the store and I'm always met with a smile.

Like Carolyn I used to go in, get what I need and get out.  Now it's an outing and I try to enjoy each trip.

I am right there with you. I can easily spend the entire day at the mall and both mine and my girlfriend's salary. I was looking at my closet and it is quite full after starting from almost nothing in December 2015 when I was almost full time except work.  But, I had a decent job and some cash reserves to pay for it.

 

When I go shopping now, I now take into account if I already have something like it. If I do, I put it back. My ex said that about shoes, I applied it to clothes too.

Shopping is my favorite past time. I love picking pretty things out and trying them on. Love to mingle with the other ladies. Makes me feel so feminine. Hugs. Amber

      Not sure.  The perp is a minor.  The problem here is NOT transgender, the problem here is incompetent and criminal administration.  See https://www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/family-of-loudoun-co-student-sexually-assaulted-ineptitude-of-all-involved-is-staggering/3231725/ It is more than annoying that people think the problem here is TG and that other people think the solution is some stupid statewide law.  Like an appendectomy to deal with an ingrown toe nail.    Since Loudon, I recall a boy was asked not to use the girl's restroom at a high school by one of the girls.  He, overwhelming her with height and weight,  assaulted her, claiming he had a right to be there.   Later I think eight girls beat him severely in another girl's restroom.  Again the problem is not transgender, the problem is assaults in restrooms and common courtesy.  TG is used as a smokescreen and it seems to paralyze thought among administrators who do not want to do anything to provoke controversy.

      Time to get with your Primary Care doctor and be referred to a neurologist or an orthopedist.  It could be many things, too many for any of us here to guess at.

      Other than the Boy Scout motto, oath, and law. I use two:   When asked how I'm doing? In all honesty I reply. I would have to make something up to complain. If asked to explain further: I reply. I know someone is having a tougher time than I am, and I pray God blesses them.   I also recite this quote that I have tagged in my signature: Courage, doesn't always roar. Sometimes it's the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, "I will try again tomorrow."-Unknown    Saying these things daily keep me motivated.   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      If this goes on, I am conceding the real possibility of being stopped in WM or somewhere by a concerned citizen who tells me, "Lady, God made you female.  I don't think you should be trying to look like a man. You need to return to your true gender and be comfortable living your life out as a woman."   Begin odd and awkward conversation.  I have been thinking about this this morning.

      There are many MAGA GOP types who are not transphobes, of course. Some MAGA GOP types are transgender.

      I'm hoping to read the next section today.  Many of the reforms they are calling for are good, such as expediting the military procurement process, and have nothing to do with transgender issues.

      Good afternoon,    I have a young friend who is vegetarian and married to a full on meat eater. They have two areas of their grill clearly designated for their different cooking requirements. When she’s cooking she uses tongs or chopsticks to handle any meats. When he’s cooking he respects her request not to cook her meals on the side where meat has been. They get along fine and respect each other.    When she attends our house, she usually brings her own food, but knows I will clean my grill to meet her requirements. We love and respect her commitment to be vegetarian. I love that she trusts me to make her comfortable when visiting us. There are ways to make it work.    Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      I was going to call it Numbness, then I realised well.. it isn't. basically, yeah, it isn't.   this only happens to me sometimes. I'll be lying down and my legs will.. well, I guess lock?   If I straighten them out, they will unlock- when I roll over again, they will lock again. this lasts for around 10/ 15 minutes I guess   it's not pins and needles either

      In this case the MAGA GOP transphobes Just my opinion of course
    • atlantis63
      so, a close friend wants to cook for me   the issue is, she is a vegitarian and won't handle meat- I, on the other hand, won't handle vegetables- hate the things   every time she goes out to the shop, she comes back with something.. a cake, a fruit smoothie, a coffee, I won't eat any of it. please help me think of something that she could make for me that I'll actually eat   disclaimer: you are talking to the most pickiest eater in the world. good luck

      I think there is some truth in this.  They intend to implement Project 2025, whether or not he spends his energies persecuting the Democrats who have been persecuting him (in his view, a debatable point) and does nothing else.   I have seen numerous accusations that the document is about "Trumpism", whatever that is, and is merely a vehicle for him to become dictator.  From what I have read so far, that is the same sort of truth as the Steele Dossier, denying the validity of a certain laptop, Schiff's non-existence evidence of collaboration and a host of other things, many directly from Biden, that are simply not true.   I will continue reading it.
