MATURE CROSSDRESSER EVENTS

One thing that I have always loved about the month of January is my focus on the months ahead. My sanity returns once all the holiday obligations are out of the way and I can plan for new crossdressing adventures. I try to put an emphasis on Las Vegas the first half of the year before it heats up too much. Portland and Seattle are better in the summer and this year San Francisco is back on my radar. I have not been back since before COVID (2019). I am impressed with what the new mayor is doing to fix the problems that kept me away post COVID.

In addition to cleaning things up he is chasing businesses large and small along with tourism and conventions. Its sad it has taken so long to get someone in office that gets it and is doing what it takes to bring the city back. Maybe I will take a chance on San Francisco in August or September. Las Vegas cools off in October so I will be heading back there most likely the last 3 months of the year.

While my security and safety are always part of my planning process I don’t obsess over it and really don’t understand all of the fear I keep reading about online. I have never experienced anything that people seem to be afraid of in any of the cities referenced above. To the contrary I have experienced the upmost respect and courteous treatment everywhere I have gone. I am not talking about Gay or Trans establishments but mainstream upper end venues. In fact the more expensive the establishment the better the experience.

My mature crossdresser events reflect my seasoned citizen tastes like old world steakhouses with red leather booths and amber lighting. Amber lighting is a gurlz best friend and makes everyone look better. I am always looking for a new steakhouse to be discovered.

Here are my thoughts on public acceptance of crossdressers and all things trans. All of the publicity regarding surgery and puberty blockers on kids puts us in a negative light with the public. The same goes for Trans people in the ladies rooms and women’s locker rooms. For almost 40 years I have used the ladies room when I needed to and nobody cared but now only do it in emergency situations where my work around failed. I use my hotel room if I am nearby and limit my liquid intake. Ladies locker rooms have never been a place I go so not an issue. Hopefully at some point things quiet down and I will feel better about using the ladies room again.

I have found that acceptance of our lifestyle varies by age group which I group by decade for convenience. My parents generation known as the Greatest Generation had a very low acceptance level because so little information was available to them. They are mostly gone now so it does not matter other than their influence on their children who make up my Baby Boomer generation.

The 1960’s had a profound effect on social norms commonly practiced by most people. Boomers rebelled against a lot of the structure forced on them so acceptance of Gay, Lesbian, Transvestite and other lifestyles experienced a higher degree of acceptance. Now Boomers are in their golden years of 70’s and 80’s and most have either accepted us or don’t care. Our numbers are fading also so in 10 years there won’t be enough of us to influence anything.

I can’t keep track of all the other generations and have not had many substantive conversations with them so will limit my comments on that group. One thing that I feel confident in saying is the younger the group or generation the greater their acceptance. Most of the hostesses (20 Somethings) that are gracious enough to take the pictures I post of me in the restaurants on my adventures are very enthusiastic about it.

They take a ton of pictures from different angles and volunteer to take more if I wish. I have had similar experiences with servers and valet’s from restaurants. Thinking about our acceptance experience based on generations its only going to get more accepted over time.

I need to note that I never disguise my voice or attempt to soften it so all of the acceptance I have experienced has been using my male voice. If your not going out you are missing out on a lot of fun and hopefully my words offer you some encouragement.
