Current Events > I bought my first dress ever just now.

(+) Yeah! (+)

Be gentle with her. She's going through a lot.

Nah I'm a girl and I'm a badass

I guess they say it's a journey, not a destination, right? Be happy with yourself, Roast.

I'm a lot calmer today, but even more confident in who I am.

INTJ Roast is back and she's scolding Euphoria Roast.

Are those new Starbucks flavors?

And all you had to do was to have sex with a guy until you got pregnant.

I thought the female laid an egg that the male had to ejaculate on?

Tried that, didn't work

Thought on any names for the little egg?

We've decided not to find out the sex until birth. Still discussing names. If it's a girl, I want it to be Jade whereas my wife likes Sakura (I'm gonna nix that because I'm Chinese, not Japanese wtf).

It actually bothers me that Sayoria thought I was giving up. I thought she'd be happy for me, after all these years.

I put a cute bow in my hair this morning so I guess you could say things are getting serious

You have to see it from her point of view.
You are pregnant, your body is full of Estrogen, it is not strange that you are feeling female. You got an overdose of female hormones and gives up being a male.
I believe that she wants you to be happy and that she worries that you are making a mistake that you will regret once you have given birth and your estrogen level goes down again.

She was someone I looked up to and I know she cared a lot about my gender struggles all these years. But I know in my heart this is who I am.

Im sure that she is happy for you once she realize that.

Maybe. I know she's pretty disappointed in me.

Name them Apherosy regardless of sex.
Also hi I'm ApherosyLove, I don't believe we've met!

She's thrilled. She's the one who kept forcing me into girly cosplay outfits for... bedtime activities.

She's unbelievably, mind-crushingly hot.

She's also really good at... Stuff.

If it tells you anything, she was the first (and last) girl I ever dated and I only originally did it just to test the waters. But when she popped the question I screamed "yes"

Nice!

She is, honest to goodness no joke, the hottest girl I've ever met IRL. Like it's legit crazy. I can't believe she wanted to marry my ugly (as a guy at least) ass.

She's so perfect in every way.

Everyone at work is wondering wtf happened to me

Im gonna cosplay as Rem in a maid outfit

Who's Rem?
I had to, sorry

TC I have a theory... that the reason you were compelled to become a doctor in the first place... it's because somewhere deep inside your mind, you knew one day you were going to need a lot of money for pretty clothes.

I've read through the whole topic and I'm joining in with all the celebration. I'm happy for you!

Bahaha it was destiny!

But seriously just decimated my bank account yesterday

You'd think I'd have at least one or two "girl" clothing but nope. Nothing but scrubs, jeans, T-shirts and hoodies.

It must be really fun to open that door and discover all the girly stuff out there and go wild.

I spent almost three decades deliberately avoiding this stuff out of fear of being "girly" even though I secretly liked it.

Maybe I'm too old now for some of it, but I'm going to at least finally experience what it's like to dress the way I want.

It's funny because I wouldn't call my personality "feminine" and yet if I rattle off all the things I like (in terms of clothes, decorating, etc) they are so obviously female that it's kind of shocking that it took me this long to realize who I really am.

Beautiful Asian Genetics lets you pose with your child once you both get old enough.

This is Legendary Seiyuu Kikuko Inoue (51 y/o at the time of the picture) posing with her daughter (18 y/o at that time of the picture)

Imagine looking that damn good at 51 y/o and standing proudly with your 18 y/o daughter who wants to follow in mom's foots steps to become a seiyuu herself.

Both wearing Sailor Fuku.

Honoka Inoue has BIG SHOES to fill given her mom is a literal "LIVING LEGEND" and 30+ year veteran in the Seiyuu industry, HIGHLY respected by EVERYBODY and BELOVED.

Kikuko Inoue will easily be a "Hall of Famer" within the Japanese Seiyuu world.

Damn I love asian chicks >_>

Anyway, you look good in that dress TC! Keep that confidence with you!

That's not my photo, just a pic of the dress on a model lol.

But thanks <3

It feels wonderful to finally let go of my self-hatred.

You should see my wife. She's full Ethiopian and (chefs kiss).

I'm putting on a pretty dress tonight and going out for dinner with my wife. She's going to do my makeup. I've never worn makeup ever in my life. She told me she always knew this is who I really was, which is why she always kept putting me in those costumes. She says I'm beautiful and I should show it. I dunno if that's true or just reassurance.

I for sure will never look as good as her, but I don't have to try. If she likes me that's all that matters.

I sound like an idiot right now but I don't care.

You've trusted your wife with so much, I'd hope you can trust her with this. :)

I can't tell if I'm feeling the first baby kicks or what. It's kind of creepy but I like it too.

My wife picked this out for me. I've never worn anything this feminine in public ever. I'm legitimately excited.

Why dont you go to like Nordstroms and get someone to help you. Try on a whole bunch of shit. Buy a couple of things there and the rest you liked online.

Also, dont forget about accessories. Shit like scarves and shawls and other things I dont remember the name of can bring together new outfits and options in combinations.

Tomorrow is my day off, so I think I'll do exactly that. I've never gone to a store to try on clothes before. It's wild how I lived my life up until now.
I'm fortunate enough to have a body shape conducive to dresses, although being pregnant means that's gonna change for a while.

I literally opened my closet this morning and it was nothing but men's jeans, hoodies, T-shirts, scrubs and khakis. All of that has to be replaced.

in that case you might want someone like Cleo to chime in on a good spot to go. Nordstrom has really good customer service, but they are expensive. Like some of those coats you were posting would but like $400-1000+. But also for some clothes cut and hang really matters. And the higher quality normally is cut and hangs better.

Norstrom Rack is leftovers from Nordstrom and I believe some outlet specific clothes too.

Macys is more affordable and can have great sales. Still pretty good customer service. Those coats would all be $100-400 there.

Somewhere like JC Penney its hard to find help in but they are really cheap. So if you just want to have fun they could still be a good choice.

We have a Nordstrom Rack near the mall where I live. I don't really want to spend a huge amount of money so if it has outlet prices I'm all for it. I'll go there!

Macy's and JC Penney both died off at our mall. I guess department stores are going under?

We're also going to a maternity store (which I've adamantly avoided up until now) because I'm gonna need stuff that actually fits with my bump.
It's cute - my wife keeps opening car and other doors for me like I'm some kind of pregnant lady (I guess I am, lol holy shit). Now I need pregnancy clothes.

Nordstrom Rack prices are still higher than like Ross or Burlington Coat Factory, those are honest to goodness outlet places. Stuff at the rack is like 25-75% off Nordstrom. Some of the stuff is not worth it, others are great. My ex loved going there for shoes. I like going there for dress shirts and pants.

Yep I shopped at Ross (and Marshall's) all the time as a guy. Cheap and you sometimes get good brands for next to nothing. I'm kind of a cheapskate IRL.

Never really looked at their female clothes, though.

I'll be honest - I've wanted to wear things like this since I was a teenager. I've repressed it for 20+ years because I didn't want to be thought of as girly.

For instance:

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/5/0/5/AAeEwGAAD54R.jpg

I need this dress so much

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]


I don't even have words to describe how I felt when I saw myself as a cute female in the mirror. Euphoria isn't even a strong enough word. I need cute clothes lol.

Told my wife I want to go clothing shopping tomorrow. She's excited. Literally said "I've waited four years to see the real you"

I think she's just being supportive, but I appreciate it.

The complete works

If you've ever seen a high school or college comedy in the 80s through the 2000s, it's when they take a girl who's already attractive and then take her glasses off to make her just as attractive, but without glasses.
