Have you tried going Other places en femme instead?
I ask because it`s well known that little kids seem to have some sort of super power of being able to spot a trans person, them and teenage girls are the worst, problem with either is that they don`t have much of a filter when it comes to vocalising it either!
Note of encouragement though, given enough time you`ll be able to walk through whole crowds of them and no one will even notice a thing! will be going through your head when that happens

that place you go for food sounds like a real danger zone at the moment, i`m wondering if you can pass amongst people that Don`t know you or haven`t seen you before? this will help build your confidence a little more.


you said: "they know I'm just a guy in drag" now This bit concerns me quite a bit! NO they Think you are a guy in drag, the way you said sounds like you agree with them.
we have to very very careful with our self-talk, words have power!

well done on the name change, it`s quite a buzz when you`re real name gets used, I still enjoy it now (I hope it never gets old) xx
