Saw another young Trans person today, this time on the train between Manchester and Cardiff. Not over stated.. I'd say a student. My tgirl radar went off and we made eye contact. We really must have a signal of some type to say I'm a tgirl too. Short skirt, flats T-shirt minimal makeup but an Adams apple.. Own hair styled fem .. No way I'd have been on a train dressed like that at 18-19.

It must be hard that you cant talk to people when you notice or see them like a rabbit in the headlights Davina as you'd then out yourslef.. You t girls need a secret handshake or something haha

My trans radar was activated again in London two Trans ladies in J J moons Wetherspoons in Wembley and clocked a few t girls whilst shopping in London those little give aways.. In the walk, broader shoulders, makeup... Dreaded Adams apple.. But all trying to fit in going about minding their own business..

Cardiff yesterday in Primark Esme and the kids had gone up a floor when I went down to the mens.. I went looking for them finding nothing of interest in the mens section finding floor 2 was lingerie lol and making eye contact with a girl of about 19 or 20 who I quickly realised was a t girl with nearby hat blonde wig makeup .. Too much dark eye makeup with a girlfriend or female friend.. From the eye contact and my smile maybe her radar went off on red alert "I've been read" and she scampered off gf in tow who caught up with her and calmed her down I felt awful as if I startled her.. Brave though in a busy shopping centre crossdressed... Trans radar! It's a thing!

Blackpool is a place people keep mentioning as a good place to go for a tgirl weekend.. one day maybe if Esme up for it

Having had a weekend in Blackpool with a lot of trans people the radar was going off left right and centre and in my bed. My husband that is spending a few days totally fem including in bed.

Its such a good environment out with other trans people and can be very flirty but fun flirty some really stunning t girls about and nice accepting wives.

It is playing at trans to a great extent i do feel sorry for real proper dysphoric trans people who must see you lot having fun with it and thinking bitches!!

Trans is becoming less of an issue but I still think crisscrossing is an issue for.people.

You are brave to face the public dressed especially if not convincing.

I think I've got the trans radar as we've been out and shared a look of there's a trans person and good on them models i f trans trans if you know what I mean as opposed to just being a crossdresser.

I've seen quite a few tgirls out and about ..

In Torquay once a t girl around 0930 in the morning a family trip away .. here comes a t girl who it seems was on her way home from a night out.. Orange foundation, garish makeup, white high heels yellow tights.. not dressed to blend in and pass.. my daughter comes up to me And says "Dad was that a man dressed as a woman?" Followed by my father in law "Frigging el did you see the state of that"

Bad example..

London with Esme.. a t girl in some sort of keep fit outfit but with big feet and massive hands out day time looked nervous and lo and behold sits opposite us on the tube and you can't help but look and feel arghhh for her and she got off the train as I suppose a few people may have been staring and I don't think it was her stop..

Both examples are dress how you like but I think better off trying to look like you pass..

Morrison's me and Esme shopping and some deep voice said excuse me and a 6ft 5 guy in a dress walks past with a 6 o clock shadow.. I'd say living as and transitioning but again not at all convincing.. doesn't help them and doesn't help us but as long as they're happy..

Back to London Wembley a tall blonde short skirt high heels red lips done up to the 9s in perfect makeup approaching me and Esme my first thought wow she's made an effort and long legs and loving the heels then as she got closet blimey she's tall then heard her deep voice t girl but looked stunning the voice was the give away.

It's hard for those with a disphoria especially if they don't look convincing.

I'd never go out unless I thought I could pass and a few times I've been dying to say hello to a t girl or someone I suspect is a t girl .. omg what if it's not a t girl.. so I don't say anything unless spoken to.

I have to admit I've never come face to face with a trans person, i have seen one or two from a distance walking down the street whilst I've been in the car and once I was stuck in traffic and looked into a tanning salon to see what I was sure was a trans person.

Having seen photos of different levels of progress I would probably be able to spot even the most convincing of t-girls & trans girls so I think my trans radar would be quite good as opposed to most people not in the community.

A question that was posed by one of my friends on Facebook asked 'if you found yourself on a train as your female self, how would you react, and what would you do?'

Would you strike up a conversation or just nod and say nothing other than hello?

A lot of people answered they would just nod and say nothing! The reason being that to start a conversation could make the other person so uncomfortable it could start Dysphoria and put the person into panic mode that they could be drawing attention to themselves.

That's probably the thought that was going through the girls mind, it could of been her first time out which was probably why she didn't want to make eye contact with you, more than likely she was thinking she'd been spotted, she wouldn't know your a CD obviously and just thought you where just an ordinary guy trying to work out if she was trans.

I think the last thing she would of been thinking is if you where a secret dresser.
