Strange looks
Yesterday I walking into a not so liberal pub wearing a skirt, just after a football match, and could see quite a lot of people staring and a few others pointing me out to their mates, yet there was a guy wandering round in a fancy dress Elvis outfit and no-one batted an eyelid!

There is no accounting for the workings of the minds of people, they are as fickle as they are different. I do not worry any more as long as there is no signs of actual hostility directed at me. Let them point and laugh or sneer it does not bother me anymore. I am who I am. No one can change that. Just as you are who you are so the sands of time will flow.
Oh crap here I go getting weird.....

"Oh my GOSH!"
Heard yesterday while leaving a local Fish Fry and a couple pounds of Green River style fish (finest fish in town). Wearing khaki skirt with 4-button fly and brown leather belt under a tshirt. As usual, the place was crowded and I was unable to spot the source. And, of course, it may have been unrelated.

I think we get so accustomed to our choice in attire that odd comments throw us off. It comes so natural to us, we can not fathom why people get such a tick about it. But we must remember, most people aren't as cool as us!

The trick is to get accustomed to odd comments and then find them amusing.moonshadow wrote:I think we get so accustomed to our choice in attire that odd comments throw us off.

Rock on.
Courage, conviction, nerve, verve, dash, panache, guts, nuts, balls, gall, élan, stones, whatever. Get some and get skirted.
