That really makes me so happy (honestly thank you again!) but I'm tempted to put up some pics of me in male mode... it's all the makeup's doing! 
(edit : actually... I might do that on Saturday)
I think you're right. I was certainly read along the journey. It just didn't feel like anyone/everyone was staring, you know? However I looked looked to the crowd, I was still a part of it if that makes sense.
No problem!! (That'll be $10.00.)
Yeah, go right ahead! Because I've been involved with the transgender world for so long, I can USUALLY tell a guy en femme from a real woman. So far, you pass!! If I saw you on the street, at least just your face, I seriously doubt I'd be able to tell! MAYBE the way you carry yourself or some other aspect (the size/look of your hands/feet/throat) gives you away, but, I'd have to see that to tell. My friend, Carla (nee Carl), was here at the house a few years after her transformation and mom thought she was a girl except for her hands! She said to me that her hands were pretty big for a woman. When she sings, she sounds like a woman with a raspy voice, even when she sang in guy mode, but, I played parts of her first album for a friend of mine that has never even met her and he thought it was a guy! As far as I'm concerned, she could easily pass for a woman, vocally, without having to put on her obviously fake fem voice. It's kinda weird that nobody seems to think her fem voice is fake! It's like on certain old t.v. shows where one character physically changes, and it's VERY obvious to us who it is, but everyone else around them is COMPLETELY fooled!! And you're sitting there going, "How can you NOT know?????"
As for you being read, it's possible, like I said, that they were being respectful of you and nice to you, maybe they didn't want to start shit or didn't have time to. (There were a few times someone was severely offended by my fem attire and they immediately made SURE I knew about it!! So, chances are, if someone objects, they WILL take the time to do so!! It's almost like a knee-jerk reaction.) But, judging by the picture you've posted here, I'd be willing to bet NO ONE read you!!
Now that you've got a taste of the success, you'll want more!! Don't ya? ;-)
