5 Jan 25 - I love wearing leggings but my male parts are so wrong

Last night, once in the privacy of my own room, I took off my outer clothes to spend a little time in just the vest and leggings. Although I have a little too much tummy, I like the vest and the softness of it. My legs look great in leggings. I love the look on women, and I feel that I have got it. My bottom is not so good though. Not round and a bit flat and definitely not feminine in shape. Hopefully hormones will help with that. The big problem though is the unsightly bulge at the front. There is no way I could be seen in public wearing leggings with that. Maybe with a tunic top that is long enough to hide it I might be okay. It’s bad enough seeing it in my underwear but at least I know it’s going to be hidden away. I would actually like to wear leggings out, but until I have had reassignment surgery that is going to be hard. 

I have had this idea for a while that I should go away on holiday and take only female clothing and spend the whole week as Nicola full time. There was a tv ad for cruises with a single woman going for the first time and I could see myself in that. Not that I have ever wanted to go on a cruise but it would be a contained and safe environment. I had a look at the M&S holiday wardrobe selection and there are outfits I could get. There were also swimsuits and bikinis which I can’t wear. But I really want to wear them and swim and sit by the pool. That just can’t be done with a hideous bulge on show. Honestly it would be so much better if I could the surgery first and get rid of it, so that I could more confidently present as a woman. The holiday is an idea though. And I have just discovered that swim dresses are a thing, so maybe it is possible. 

Just been for a run. It is crazy warm for January, 11 degrees, which considering it was 1 degree yesterday is a big jump. My leg hair has grown a bit since I shaved it all off in November so could wear shorts without worrying what people think, although I don’t want to see my legs all hairy and I always wish I could be running in leggings anyway

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 ...
