This top really needs something more, like another top over it. Way too much showing.

 

Hey, at least you've got something to show.

 

I was just in my boring-old work uniform today. Jeans and a work-safe T. Ho hum.

 

Hugs!

     white roller skates and a poodle skirt would have put me over the moon.  Unfortunately, I think that outfit would have put my parents over the moon for a different reason.

 

        Am DYING to play tennis again! Bought on ebay the same "classic racket" (an AMF HEAD Arthur Ashe Competition 2) had in high school and now 'ave a very short white skirt to match!

YMCA watch out!

 

VERY WEIRD ALERT: it's funny the things that *stick* - to this day remember the name of the young boy who lived across the street that I used to *experiment* with when 13/14 years old . . . 

 

Of course he always insisted I play "the girl" ? I've since considered the "child abused" angle but NO, was a happy/adjusted kid don't think the case.

I experimented with boys when I was 12 or 13 and it was interesting.

I have a different angle now and I love it. Feels right now.

What's "a work-safe T"? My owner/boss at work is a middle-aged lady who, under ruse of rubbing back, noticed my bra-strap for sure! LATEST IDEA: all the office girls wear black athletic tights so will wear black jeans tomorrow to better "fit the look" (i am a driver, out in the yard with "the boys")

 

We also 'ave a new girl in the yard, heavy set & older, who mistakenly(?) called me "ma'am" then apologized, corrected herself told her "it's ok, I will respond to BOTH".

 

Now she wants "to talk" (no time today!)

From the employee handbook; "T-shirts without cartoon characters or bumper-sticker sayings on them." 

 

The cartoon rule is negotiable so long as the cartoon characters are kid-friendly (Elsa is OK, Peter Griffin is not) and do not come with captions. I checked during the orientation meeting.

 

So I bought two 5-packs of basic single-color t-shirts from Amazon to go to work in. My VERY deep collection of t-shirts with clever things written on them is useless to me now.

 

Though I could probably still wear a couple. The T-shirt with the kitten attacking the sailing ship for example (Release the Kitten!). The one that declares me, "Majestically Lesbian," not so much. The t-shirt with the chemistry joke on it is probably cool though. I mean it's educational even if nobody gets it.

 

Hugs!

@KieraIt's actually a tank. It's Somona brand and super stretchy. My wife thought it was a dress the first time I wore it, started a fight. It's a little big now and you can easily see the top of my bra so I always wear something over it.

 

@Jackie C.I was only part was through your post and thought of the majestically lesbian shirt. Sounds like an act of oppression that the rules say you can't wear it.

LOL, This brought back a memory from a long time ago. Back in the 80’s, No one in my business knew of my crossdressing. To alleviate my stress (GD), I always wore some ladies undergarments but bras were reserved only when I wore sweaters and even then, not very often. One day my employee caught me adjusting my bra strap. Within a few minutes, she managed to figure out a way to do the ‘comforting back rub ruse’ as you mentioned. It was obvious after that moment...she knew. She never brought the topic up to me but we had some unspoken understanding that I wasn’t ready to come out to her. She was just a really nice person who obviously had a lot of empathy.

Back when I was still driving big rigs I wore a bra sometimes just so I could feel "right" .

On really cold days I wore leggings and one of the office ladies noticed a lacy bottom trim by my ankle and she said  I'll bet those legging look cute on you and I said I think they do you want to see them?

She declined with a bit of a chuckle.

She said she had tried to get her husband to wear them under his Carharts in the winter on his construction job because he always complained long underwear was un comfortable.

She was the same one that saw my bra straps a few years later.

She smiled and said are you a CDer? I said whats that and winked.

I have run into her recently and she knows I have switched teams since I have retired now.

I think she was a bit shocked because she said you were so manly back then I would have never suspected you would go 24/7.

She did say I made a pretty woman so that was all I needed.

Holly that top certainly does push the PG label.  A bit close to X.

    I once dressed a bit over the top.  After all i had somehow noticed the women with short skirts  and low tops more than the "plain" ones.  It was also fun at first to excite that glance from men.  Time has lengthened my skirts and yet somehow i feel just as feminine even in dirty jeans and top working the farm.

   We all have our styles which makes the world go round.

 

Hugs,

I had a 77 359 Pete with a big cam 400 Cummins, A76 GMC Astro cab over with a 600 horse Detroit Diesel / silver 92 TT/A.

It was built to haul oil pipe to Alaska so it was heavy duty and perfect for hauling coal in Ky.

Strangely enough a number of men trying to figure me out have done that back rubbing thing. This was half a lifetime ago. I always suspected they were checking for a bra but could never be sure. I never wore one in public. There was always some vibe I gave off no matter how hard I tried to suppress it. It sort of reminded me of dogs smelling another dog’s butt!!

Today I'm wearing this. I'm not much of a pants person, had to wear them for over 40 years. 

I love my dresses and skirts. I don't go out much anymore either. No need to.

Life is quiet boring at the moment for me, which is pretty good considering all the stuff in my past.

This is one of my favorite top. I don’t do yoga but I like the clothes. Sorry for the weird pose I noticed something when I walked past my mirror. When did that happen?

You’re looking more feminine than ever. Keep doing what you’re doing @Elizabeth Star. It’s obvious it’s working well for you!

Stared on spiro and estradiol tabs for 11 months and then switched to injections, add progesterone and halved the spiro 5 months ago. I feel like I've gotten more since my meds were changed up.

      Colorado isn't exactly a Republican place, and won't become one anytime soon.  I think those folks might be better off not spending their time playing Don Quixote.    We certainly have our share of California "refugees" moving into where I live, so I wouldn't be surprised to start seeing Coloradans too.  I suspect the trend over the next few years will see the blue areas getting more blue and the red areas getting more red as anybody who can relocate tries to find a place where they fit better.

      Well, at least it'll be a place some folks could choose.  Options are a good thing.

      My family would have gobbled that jar up in a minute or two.  When we do have pickled herring, its usually for Christmas.  I didn't grow up with that particular dish, but I grew up in a Greek family so I like just about any kind of fish if I can get it.  However, ocean fish and freshwater fish taste so different.  We usually have more catfish and tilapia to eat than anything else.    What I can't quite get used to is the tons of cabbage my GF insists on eating.  When you live with a Russian, there is always cabbage soup.  Always.  When I first moved in with her, breakfast was "shchi" for soup and either bread or "kasha" which is a bowl of boiled buckwheat with butter and salt.  Those dishes can be made in any number of ways, some are better than others.  In the winter, it can even be salty and sour like kraut.  Not exactly sauerkraut, but packed in tubs with vinegar and salt so it keeps partially for the winter.  But I drew the line when the cabbage soup included pieces of fried snake one day.  😆

      Good evening to you as well @Mmindy   That is awesome that you have support from her side. My dad has communicated with me once and that was because he was forced to. His new wife wanted to spend time with my kids. He hated me so much he was in the process of taking my rights away as a parent to my two boys. He was talking to a lawyer and I called him out on it. I don't love him at all. I'll respect him because I wouldn't be here without him but I wished I had another father. My uncles don't talk to me and unfriended me on Facebook. Almost all cousins except for two are still Facebook friends but they don't give me any support. My mom said she won't support me with that but she has said that she loves me. I have nieces and nephews that are still Facebook friends but they have yet to talk to me. I have one sister that supports me out of three. The other's disrespect me by deadnaming me. They have never called me their sister. I think for them they think it's still a phase. They don't ask questions about me being trans. I have to bring it up and on the look of their faces they don't look comfortable about it.

      Good evening @Ashley0616,   I just got offline with HP tech support trying to get my printer tool box icon locked to my tool bar. This is one of the most important features of my printer that I like because it keeps track of ink, paper, and scanned documents. I'm diffidently not a computer geek.   I'll catch up with the other bookmarks next week. We leave to go home for the Easter Holiday with our families. Saturday with her side, and Sunday with my side. What's odd about that is I'm out to more of her side and they're reluctantly supportive. My side on the other hand are less supportive, and my sister just under me in age will not acknowledge my being there. She will be constantly moving to keep from dealing with me. I'm dead to her.   Hugs,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      I used to follow baseball and the team I would cheer for is Boston Red Sox. My favorite player was Papi. He was an awesome guy and even held a child during the National Anthem. I haven't watched baseball for a long time. It just died off to me. 
    • Ashley0616
      That stinks that nothing transferred, and no bookmarks were saved!

      I'm doing patches for now but I think soon I'll go to shots because it's hard to alternate when you are doing two xx patches at once. Unless she gives me Estradiol and progesterone

      My view is we are "dependent" on government, because as a society, we are too lazy to stay actively involved. So, we let politicians do our bidding for us.  I think we'd be in a better place government wise if we policed the actions of our politicians.  We elected them; they work for us.  Sadly, we are allowing them to run amok.  We are where we are because we have chosen to let politicians make all decisions without us.  Remember "by the people, for the people?" That was the intent of our democracy.  Today, however, it is "by the politicians, for the politicians," the people be damned.

      "Play Ball! Batter Up!" is the closing line of the National Anthem as far as I'm concerned. It's the call of the Home Plate Umpire and signals the start of the game. I grew up in the TV and Radio broadcast of the St. Louis Cardinals. Harry Caray, Jack Buck, Tim McCarver, and Mike Shannon, were the voices on my transistor radio. KMOX 1120 AM pushing 50,000 watts of Class A clear-channel non-directional signal. It could be picked up all across MO, IL, IN to the East. KS, OK, CO to the West. IA, MN to the North, and KY, TN, AR to the South. There has always been a rivalry against the Chicago Cubs, in the National League. As for the American League, I have to pull for the Kansas City Royals. I've also been a Little League Umpire, and fan of everything the Little League stands for. Going to Williamsport, PA and seeing the Little League World Series is in my top 10 things to do on my bucket list.   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Good evening everyone,   I don't think my mother ever cooked a meal that I didn't like. We also had a kitchen where mom fixed the food, dad filled your plate, and you eat it. It wasn't until our baby brother was born that we could have Pop-Tarts for snacks. Before that all snacks had to meet mom's approval, and in her opinion wouldn't prevent you from eating supper.   Well my day started off on a good note, but has become frustrating because my IT person didn't transfer my saved videos I use for teaching. Then I found out that they didn't save any of my book marks for websites I use frequently.   Best wishes, stay motivated,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      The number is relative to method of deliver, the time of the dose, and when the blood is drawn. However, I do want to keep away from DVT and other potential issues. I assume I may be getting backed down from my current dose, but my doc told me to stick with the higher dose, so? I also wonder if this has anything to do the my breast growth and mental changes that have been happening over the past few years, like I have some estrogen sensitivity so a little goes a long way or something? I don't have enough data to postulate, but who knows!   With weekly, subcutaneous, shots you expect to see big swings of serum level estradiol from shot to peak to trough. My doctor is interested in mid-week testing (for E and T levels only), which would be post-peak blood serum levels but they will be higher than trough. Most, if not all, resources I've seen online is to measure at trough (which I might do just to do it next time) along with a SHBG, LH, and other metrics.   This is from transfemscience.org for Estradiol valerate in oil, which is very spiky compared to some other estradiol combinations. It's also for intramuscular, which will have a slower uptake and is usually dosed in higher volume due to the slower absorption rate from muscles. They don't have subcutaneous numbers, which I would expect to see similar spikes but higher levels at similar doses due to the relatively higher absorption rate direct from fat.   Are you doing pills, shots, or patches? And when you do get your levels checked are you getting that done when your levels are lowest or some other time?

      Both of my parents were from the “North Shore” of Boston.  My mother Lynn and my father Swampscot.  They had an early 1900s Scots-Irish New England diet.  My sister and I were born in the 40s in Ohio well away from New England seafood and in an area where food was more German and Polish.  My first experience with liver and onions was during basic training.  They ate salt cod but never forced us to eat it same with oysters.  My dad ate oysters but my mother wouldn’t.  Anyone who ever ate an oyster can figure that one out.  I grew up eating lamb.  My wife won’t touch it. I love brazed ox tail, again no way. And the list goes on.

      My mother was German, so yes, I think it was a cultural thing.  If I'd known you when we were cleaning out my mother's place, I could have sent you her "threat jar".
