5 Feb 2025 - shopping en femme again

I went to the Mall at Cribbs Causeway again today on the way back from work meetings and went out en femme. 

I wore the usual skirt and bodysuit combination with the heavily padded bra, but with a jumper over so lost some of the effect of that. 

Usually I wear black opaque tights but today I tried pale cream tights which made my legs far more visible, or at least I felt that way. It was a little more vulnerable. 

I tried a bit of makeup with foundation, mascara and lipstick. I’m not sure lipstick suits me. I think if anything it makes me more clockable as a man than when I don’t wear it. 

Shopping itself was a fail as Next didn’t have the corduroy pinafore dress that I had seen online. Didn’t really see anything else in there that I did like either. Not in H&M, New Look nor M&S. 

I did get some bum enhancing shorts which are a bit funny looking with the padded bottom but having now tried them under my skinny jeans, the effect is impressive. 

Also, I got a two pack of first bra crop tops which is pretty much a full set of the first bra range now. I must have more first bras than most actual teen girls. It feels special to get them as it is preparing for hormones and my female puberty. If I ever actually do that.

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 ...
