Stacation

This week has been a staycation one of those times when you have to use vacation time to avoid losing out. We are saving up for a big vacation next year and so our time this year is spent at home. My wife was out of the house all day today and I had an early morning errand to run, so I got dressed in my feminine best and went out. (My wife knows I do this, so don't think I was sneaking out.)

After my errand, I went to my local J C Penney store and found the women's department under construction. I'm not sure just what they are doing, but things seem to be jumbled up and the usual fitting rooms were not available. The only fitting rooms were in lingerie area. Now I've been in the fitting rooms before, but usually, there's no one there to say yea or nay as to who goes in or with how much. Pretty trusting folks I guess.

Today I was looking for a skirt and wasn't sure of the brand I found, so what size I really needed was in question. Also there was also a pair of shorts and a top that seemed like it would be a nice. My usual practice in stores, if the fitting rooms aren't isolated as has been the case at Penney's before is simply to ask if I can try on and see where they send me. Years ago, at a K-mart when I had just decided to make it a rule that if I couldn't try on, I didn't buy, the attendant sent me to the men's fitting room. Likewise for a couple of other stores in my area. However of late, the women's fitting room seems to be for trying on women's clothes. Be that as it may, I'm willing to allow each store to send me to a room where my plumbing matches the rest of the shoppers, however, I'm not so sure I'd actually go. More likely, given the attitude of many stores I've been in recently, I'd just take my money else where. But I digress.

The check stand was right in front of the check out at the lingerie section, so I waited for the attendant to notice me standing there. She smiled and nodded saying she'd be with me in a minute. I think she saw me looking at the fitting room door and after only few moments, she looked at me, pointed at the door and motioned with her head, and whispered, "Go right on in."

Now, I know that I really don't look good enough to "pass" on looks alone. I've been "sired" even when wearing a very feminine top with good make up and a prominent bust line showing. However, it seems that when I simply act like I belong, I receive the acceptance of women, both store clerks and women shoppers alike. If I have any reaction it'll come from a man.

OPINION: I think that women are more likely to accept a feminine man than a man is. It seems they (the women) respect a man who wants to get in touch with his feminine side, but men seem to feel threatened by the idea a man could be feminine.

Oh well, I'm a happy feminine man... a male lesbian, if you will.
