Interesting effects I now have on people

Another day and evening in Las Vegas
 

Earlier this month I went out with my friend Julie to a new  thrift shop that carries vintage attire from the late 50's to early 70's. I noticed one person who I know is a closet CD because my friend and I have seen him often looking at women's clothing and taking it into a dressing room at various thrift stores I tend to shop at. I tend to avoid him because I'm just not interested and he isn't really interested in anything other than the clothes as a fetish.
As I was looking through the dress area, my friend Julie approached me with some dresses and motioned to me to try them.. I actually liked three of the four items I tried on and went to the register. The cashier was also the assistant manager, and she very supportive of customers who are cross-dressers and those who are transgender... I put the clothes on the counter and she looked into my face and eye's and said "I like, very nice, I love your lipstick" and had a big smile on her face. I was floored, I had no idea if she knew who I was or even knew I was a guy, but it sure made my day,
After paying for my purchases, Julie and I left the thrift shop and went to the APPLE STORE for me to check out a new phone. The salesman was very attentive and as he when back and forth trying to make the exchange and set the phone up I would be unattended. First the security guard came up behind me and greats me by saying my femme name "Hello" as if he knew me, but I couldn't remember him, it's awkward when that happens. Next the lady who owned a lounge I used to go to came in and walked over to talk with me, in the mean time at least 3 other sales people came back and forth at least 3 times to make sure I was being taken care of. Then one of my neighbors came in and we started talking, everyone seemed to treat me above and beyond average of what Trisha would receive.
To prove that last statement, I had to go back to have something else set on the phone and the treatment was reasonable, but not at all with the same attention as I had earlier.
I know people either misunderstand or consider my “alter ego” weird, strange or any other pejorative term they care to use.
 Just so everyone knows, I have no delusions of wanting to be any one el...
se other than “TRISHA” I am nothing more than a maturing older individual who prefers herself being easier on the eye’s, I am very happy with everything in my life.
I don’t pretend I pass, I don’t consider myself a “Trans-anything” I attempt to avoid “politically correct” terms but I try to accept everyone who is Respectable in their choices in life, we all need to do what makes us feel good to ourselves and brings meaning and understanding to others without malice.
