First time feeling "bad" in male attire/appearance

Post by Ms. Erin »

A few days ago I went for a consultation to the laser hair removal place and had the best, I really mean the best, experience ever. They treated me with so much respect and when I left the office the best way to describe my emotional feeling is like when you fall in love with someone. Except it was me that I fell in love with.

After I introduced myself as TG and I told the lady about my soon to start transitioning, she told me they have more TG's as clients. Anyway I showed my "photo shopped" photo of the face of the woman I like to be, they (5 ladies by now) where delighted and when she asked my name, I hesitated a little and told her Erwin... (after all I was dressed and appearing as male) She said: no no no, and while pointing to my photo, she asked "her" name.

After that the whole conversation was so amazingly great and we talked about all the possibilities and things I should consider or look for etc. Treating me like a woman and calling me by my name, Erin. =P~

Long story short, for several reasons I was dressed male and unshaved. Well this was partly due since I left work and visited my kids earlier and I was on my way to help a friend move a mattress, so I had time in between. Any way I figured being unshaved is a good way for them to determine if I am a candidate for laser hair removal.

All this time I was so "myself" as Erin, and I really felt terrible being in a male appearance, as I should have been en Femme. A day I won't forget.
I am a woman of trans experience.
