So my oldest son and I went to Walmart for some groceries. Here I am, bent over, legs and knees together, lookng for some lunch meat. Behind me approaches someone in a handicap scooter and asks if I can help him find some turkey and roast beef. Sure. So i got some for him after i turned around. He said 'thank you,. And then he said, "I'm sorry sir for referring to you as ma'am". I said, not a problem; and just maybe I am"...
Now, someone may be offended, but I took it as a compliment. You see, from his vantage point, he saw a female form; not a male. Pink tennis shoes, skinny jeans, loose, but thin, top, long hair. He 'thought' he made a mistake when he noticed no makeup and a bit of facial hair.
So, imagine when this @#$%^&* virus is gone, and I can get back to getting my electrolysis re-started - and completed. Then I can wear makeup and not look like a freak. And then get my 'top' properly 'adjusted/enhanced/augmented'.....

Interesting experience. Nice quotes too. Things we should remember, but often don't

Michelle honey, with this Covid thing having caused the temporary closure of the electrolysis salons, why haven't you been shaving and applying some makeup so that you can go out in public as the real woman you are? It's not as if that damn hair won't grow back when the salons open back up.

Arrrg, even writing the words makes me cringe..... Unfortunately, yesterday was day 2!. Oh well, at least what he said made me feel good... Love ya, Michelle

– Christopher Reeve Hi Michelle -
It’s kind of funny in a weird way with this damn virus. I still get referred to ma’am or miss when I am enfemme which is still plenty when I have to go to the store, pharmacy, etc. Because, here where I live, I have to wear a mask when I am in public places. So I can still wear makeup, usually not lipstick when I am out and about. In these times, I just try to dress as any other woman does and just blend in. Anyhow, it works for me! Hugs, Suzy
