This past weekend I took a couple more baby steps in my journey of transition. First I ordered some new clothes (a couple of shorts, tank tops, and a more feminine watch). I can't wait till they arrive.
Second on Saturday I wore my kilt all day even out in public. I know a kilt is a man's garb, but it is still a skirt and I wore it out. I did not care what other people thought. I thought this would be a good baby step to going out fully dressed some day. I had no issues. No weird stares or comments. So that was a big plus. I was worried. But I tried to look confident wearing it and I think I succeeded.
Third step was on Sunday. My wife and I went through our clothes to clean out and reorganize. After we threw out a bag full of ripped and holey clothes and had a over flowing bag for donations it was time to reorganize what was left. I finally have separated my female clothes from my male clothes. I was surprised at how equal in quantity they are becoming. My male clothes are slowly shrinking and my female clothes are slowly growing. I know I will have to keep my male clothes for a long long time, but I'm happy to have my female clothes in a few designated spots instead of hiding in bags or in a cubby. All my skirts and shirts are now hung up in the closet. All my undies, bras, tights, nylons, etc are in their own drawer, no longer mixed with my male stuff. It is nice to no longer have to have them hidden.
I know these are baby steps, but it makes the transition much easier if you do it one small step at a time. Not sure what the next steps will be yet.
