We all have a crossdresser wardrobe even though some are more extensive than others, beginners with a few items while old hands a closet full of goodies. I am in the full closet category for several reasons first I have been at it for a long time and second I have a real problem getting rid of stuff. You know its getting bad when you have pry the clothes apart with a boat oar so you can hang more stuff.
My public exposure and confident crossdressing accelerated from the year 2000 to 2020 when our group started making regular trips to San Francisco. The level of acceptance I encountered from pronouns, to being invited by the Macys and Nordstrom sales associate to try on dresses in the fitting room. Everywhere we went we were treated like ladies and had a fabulous time taking my confident crossdressing to a new level but San Francisco was more accepting than most places.
The more adventures I log the easier they seem to come together and solitary crossdressing has some advantages that I really enjoy. After spending Friday night at the Craft Steakhouse and the comedy club Saturday night I went to familiar venue. The Bistecca Steakhouse at the Tuscany Suites hotel has become a must for me over the last year or so. The food is great and I am made to feel welcome each and every time I go there so solitary crossdressing is very comfortable. Kelli Perry and her TG Rocktober folks paved the way for me by having their event there each October so it is very crossdresser friendly.
Packing for a road trip is more complicated when you are a traveling crossdresser because it is a lot more involved. I can travel abroad for three weeks with a duffle bag and a backpack as Duke but when Ms. Micki is involved its far more complicated. Preparing Micki for public view requires a lot more planning and packing extra goodies for the best result. Here is a look at what comes with Micki when she is a traveling crossdresser. The makeup case is the most important important piece of luggage that I bring with me as a traveling crossdresser.
For many of us a crossdresser outing is just a day or night activity but mine are usually multi day trips. Hotels are always part of my crossdressing destination because my wife prefers that I not dress anywhere near where we live.
Years ago it was not the norm but theses days most any restaurant can be considered crossdresser friendly restaurants. It’s not universal and depends on the city but the larger more liberal ones are pretty reliable. I knew I was not taking my life in my own hands in Seattle having been there before and knowing what to expect. That said, there is a big difference between being welcomed as opposed to just tolerated. Absolutely everywhere I went in Seattle was very welcoming and enthusiastically supportive with all the proper pronouns. More than that though I felt they truly liked that fact that I was there.
All the planets finally aligned and I was able to get my crossdressing road trip off the ground, Literally! On Monday I flew to Seattle for my next 3 day crossdressing adventure. I chose the historic Sorrento Hotel because of its vintage elegance which is something that I love.
It’s that time of year again when fall crossdressing replaces most of the fun in the sun activities. I remember looking forward to it getting dark earlier which gave me the cover I needed years ago.
Still in the crossdressing orbit which has turned into a bit of a crossdressing drought at the same time. I had to cancel and reschedule my new July adventure that I was so much looking forward to. If nothing pops up and gets in the way I will do it later this month which will probably work a little better with cooler weather. All of us know we need to let the genie out of the bottle on a regular basis for a tranquil existence. I know its getting bad when my wife starts asking me to change my plans and do it sooner because I am getting bitchy about stuff. It seems the genie in the bottle is now becoming the beast within!
When I say crossdressing zone I am not referring to where to park your car or sit down. I am talking about the process of crossdressing from beginning to end which possibly many don’t think about.
