Another Passing Idea


Guest Lizzie McTrucker

Recommended Posts

Guest Lizzie McTrucker

Some times when you have the basics down for looking like a lady and acting like a lady..sometimes it's minor details that can help push the passability in your favor.

I'm trying something out that I just bought yesterday, but the idea has been playing in my mind for a few months now.

I'm wearing an (fake) engagement ring.

Logic being..who wears engagement rings? Women.

Do men wear an engagement ring? naturally, no

So obviously if this person is looking like a woman, dressed like one, acting like one. oh and she has an engagement ring on her finger so she obviously must be a woman.

and if anyone asks, I'll just use my male name as the "lucky man" who proposed. oh and where did he propose? at disney world a few months ago. (which is where I proposed to my first serious girlfriend years and years ago)

Funny thing is..I'm not even engaged, yet I -love- looking at this ring on my finger thinking hopefully some day it will be a real diamond engagement ring.

A girl can always dream...

Oh and I found a site online that has cheap cubic zirconia sterling silver engagement rings for like $35 or something, up to size 13 so you don't have to get a real diamond or anything. I also found out months ago this same finger was a size 13 and the ring I bought yesterday is a size 11 and it fits just fine.

That's a great idea, Lizzie! And just like someone who is engaged, it is a great way to show you are not available.

Claire's sells cheap rings and have larger sizes - I believe it is nationwide. I can also sometimes find size 9 at Macy's.

I do love those engagement rings - so feminine!

Great Post Lizzie!

Becca (my cis-girl BFF) and I were just playing around silly the other day.... she commented how the top I was wearing looked w-a-a-a-a-y too much like a maternity top. We came up with this idea of getting some small pillows and elastic straps and stuffing inside our tops to look like we were maybe 6 months preggars (we'd need to stuff our bras, too!) then going out shopping to see what peoples' reactions would be.

Good idea... But not if you're looking for a guy XD Not a lot of guys I know would ask a girl out if they saw that... Then again I know too many who would anyway. :lol:

I should get a real one before I need that though.. right? If you're somehow magically reading this... dearest BF... that is a go ahead! XD

A girl can dream right...?

-secretly (or not-so secretly) wishes it comes true..-

Catherines has bracelets I can fit into. And a good selection - have you tried it? Also Avenue.

WalMart has bracelets, too. I just bought one that is even a bit large for me. I'm a larger woman and need the larger sizes, too. Joanna, your new earrings look lovely, too. ;) A ring might add a nice touch as well.

      Not to bump this up or anything, but I just want to put one more note on the end of this...   Thank you for allowing me to post this here and thank you for all who have responded.  This step has been a huge help to me on my political journey.  I've made several key decisions in the last few days that allow me to run a better campaign for the next 4 years.  I worked my way off of the streets 20 years ago by writing math and computer programming on paper.  10 years later I was able to buy a house with the software engineering work that I was doing.  Now 20 years after getting off of the streets and having two failed bids for US Representative and likely another failed bid in the next couple weeks, I've come to the point of selling my house to run a very frugal campaign for vice-president (it's a thing even though it is an appointed position) for the next 4 years, all on the money I have earned from that work I did on the streets.   My policy going forward is that I'm not going to ask for money and I'm not going to ask for people's votes.  The vice-presidency is an appointed position.  I'm also not going to run for legislative offices anymore.  I'm simply going to tour the country on my own dime looking for good people and a strong millennial female who sees my logic and would like to be president.   I have reached out to tens of thousands of people on my own dime in the last 7 years.  Famous people, ultra-famous people, business leaders, civil engineers, random people, news people, educators, unions, politicians.  I certainly got less than 5 emails from those efforts.  Actually, I only really remember one person.  He is an educator and we had a good Zoom meeting.   I'm not bitter.  I'm not complaining.  Those of you who have followed me on this site know I like to keep things positive and talk about cooking and living healthy.  I hope that this post doesn't get buried.  I think the title is strong and my message is clear.  I don't want to bog this site down with the details of the whole thing.  I simply want people to know that there is a transwoman working to be vice-president.  Notice that I didn't title this a-transwoman-as-us-respresentative.  My politics are executive level.  I'm a whistleblower, not a complainer.  I aim to educate and inspire.

      Society is preserved by passing on proper roles for people, which works for the 90+ percent that it works for.   We were all taught from an early age that breaking out of the classification was a shameful thing, even when, actually, it is not. 
    • Abigail Genevieve
      I'm probably showing my age.  I haven't looked at a guest count in a long time.  Doing FB and staying off forums for a while.  Previous forum use had fewer bots if any and guests were actual people, mostly, unlike today.    Any AIs or bots struggling with GD are welcome.  I would love to read your introduction.

      I've seen this on a lot of forums tbh. That's how a lot of content ends up on internet archives. You've got loads of bots scanning the site at all times and archiving it. Forums are actually nice (in comparison to social media) in that the guest count gives you a pretty good idea of how actively the site's content is being archived. Basically just don't post anything you don't want archived.

      Kids are resiliant with therapy and strong support ;-)    They were all elementary age when their dad died and are teens now, and how they've grown and developed as young people, already, takes my breath away.   I'm working on communicating changes clearly and without shame, which is difficult basically all the time because of feeling guilty over doing gender "wrong" for so long. Working on that myself! <3

      Allow me to add that people should think twice about posting pictures of themselves, with the facial recognition software that is out there.  Those in stealth or who are not fully out may discover they are suddenly and unwillingly fully out in ways they wish had not happened.

      Funny how when i read the topic name i thought you were asking about the study of plants and animals.  I'm a bit into that as a farmer at va time when a cell phone makes plant  for insect identification easier than it has ever been.    Now on to your topic.  I don't farm in the nude.  I have wondered at whether i would skinny dip as i did as a kid without thought of how my body might affect others.  The effects of hormones makes me different from the average person and perhaps i'm "neither fish nor fowl".  I would certainly depend on who my fellow passengers on that cruise would be.   Hugs,   Charlize
    • Abigail Genevieve
      This is also a relatively small forum and it can take a long time, seemingly, for someone to get around to replying to a post. 
    • Charlize
      I am also pretty sure that several of them are folks who are "trans curious".  Sometimes folks who are trying to find their own identity, are attracted to trans folks or who are simply interested in the trans community.   There may also be some who wish to do us harm which is why ......... I've just learned to smile figuring "i'm on candid camera".   I'm sure many of our younger members never experienced that show so my age is showing.   Hugs,   Charlize

      Most of those "guests" are web bots from China, Indonesia, France etc. looking us over. They are mostly benign.  All they can see or gain access to are the general forums.  Members should be careful not to post anything that could readily identify themselves such as real names, addresses, phone numbers, etc. They do not have access to our gallery, blogs or private messenger. They seem to haunt all forums. Not just us. I should add that they can make us known across the internet. That's how prospective members find us. Google would be a good example.
