3 Feb 2024 - saw another trans person in my town

I didn’t sleep well, which often seems to be the case if I drink a beer of an evening.  Maybe I should not drink at all as drinking a little just seems to ruin my sleep for unnecessary calories.  Mind you, curry without lager wouldn’t be the same and there are many nice flavours to be enjoyed.  

For no particular reason I felt I wanted to remove more body hair. I used the hair removal cream, which smells horrid and isn’t that effective. There must be a better solution.  It is nice to be a bit less hairy now though.  

As it’s the weekend, I have put on some knickers instead of boxers to feel feminine.  I’m also wearing tights under my jeans.  I did think about wearing one of my crop tops too, but it isn’t that cold today and it might show under my top (which wouldn’t be a problem if it were colder and I was wearing something thicker or a jumper over.  


Doing the weekly shop today, there was a trans person in the supermarket.  They were dressed femme, with female three-quarter length jeans and a ladies’ jumper and yellow jacket, with longish hair tied back, but spoke with a male voice that they obviously were not trying to feminise.  Perhaps non-binary rather than trans woman then?  They were with a cis woman partner and kids, so I guess their relationship was surviving transition.  Maybe that’s a sign of hope.  Also hopeful is that they were not being stared at nor experiencing any transphobia, although you probably don’t get much of that in Waitrose. 

I don’t know how I feel about seeing another trans person in my town. I feel a bit guilty for clocking them, although I don’t think they were trying to stealth so that’s probably fine.  Maybe it’s good to see that someone else is doing it and it appears to be alright.  I feel jealous though that they are doing it and I’m not.  


It’s a bit cooler now it’s evening and have had to put a jumper on. I’ve taken the opportunity whilst going up to the loo (sitting obviously as I am a girl today) to put on a crop top under my shirt.  It’s fine under my jumper. I like the feeling of the elastic around my chest.

5 May 25 - living a lie

I’m wearing a soft crop top and Brazilian knickers under my male clothes today and it’s the first time   I’ve done so since my wife found out about my underwear.   I did wear some knickers last weekend for a day, which was nice but this is the first time I have had the crop top too.  Considering that I was wearing the underwear full time and the crop tops every weekday evening and all weekends for the previous month, this has been a big gap.  I have really been craving the feeling of a bra or crop top. That stretchy tightness of the band around my chest and the straps over my shoulders. It is such a relief to have one on now.  Because I’m a bit scared about getting caught out again I have only worn the soft crop top as that is least visible under my clothes. The more structured crop top has bra straps which are a bit more noticeable so although I really want to wear that, it felt a bit too risky.  This is so rubbish that I have to hide who I really am ...

23 Sep 2025 - a handbag?

I have not been out presenting female in public for about six months which is a long time.   The last time was my trip to London when I went out to the bar and dinner, which felt great, and to breakfast in the hotel which was less successful. At that time, I felt confident and like I could do this.   Following my wife catching me out with some of my underwear, I cut my hair, put away my clothes and didn’t do anything for a while. It seems my confidence got lost in that too, because when I started thinking about going out dressed again, I felt really nervous about it.  Probably doesn’t help that the anti-trans lobby had successes during this time and it feels a less safe thing to be doing now than it did six months ago.  Whatever the reason, I was pretty scared this time.  The biggest mental hurdle is around changing from male to female clothing, as I have to leave the office and arrive at the mall in male clothing, then be back in male clothing to go home so...

4 Mar 25 - first time out at a queer bar

I can’t believe I’m doing this but I have left the hotel in a dress and full makeup and walked half an hour through central London to Soho and my first ever queer bar, She Soho, a lesbian bar and man-free zone. Unfortunately no mobile reception to share with friends. Have logged on to the wifi but that doesn’t work. Ok, so how do I feel? Lonely!  There are two groups of friends and a couple.  The chat is pretty loud and I’m sitting by myself which is a bit tragic.  But, the point is, I am out in public as openly dressed and made up as I have ever been. That on its own is awesome!  I have never done this before! To be fair to myself, if I was in a normal bar and dressed as a man, I wouldn’t be talking to anyone either, so maybe that is not something I should be stressing about. Why would I imagine that being in a dress is suddenly going to make me capable of socialising and speaking with strangers?   The music is pretty cool. The beer isn’t that good, and really ...
