Since I am on a comfort kick lately I thought I would share with you a picture of what I am wearing at this very moment and this is, to me, ultimate comfort! I know, I know, it is a totally horribly crappy photo. But I decided to take it while I actually am at work, and the only viable location to do so was in a restroom with the only full length mirror available.
Why is this outfit so comfy? Well, except for my work uniform polo, everything else is female clothing. It is not blatantly so, but I know it, and that is enough. And these jeans are so super comfy. They are possibly the comfiest pair of jeans that I own. They are a little tight in the thighs, but since they are made of stretchy fabric they are still super comfy. As well, they are female jeans, but not overly fem. When I asked Jules what she thought about me wearing them to work, she said “well they are a bit tighter than your normal jeans, but the only way I can tell they are female jeans is that I can actually see your butt.”
Which I thought was pretty darn funny! Considering that my work polo is so long, it covers much of my butt anyway, so who would really know! And besides, who really cares! Not me!
And this is actually the second time this week I have worn such an outfit to my job. And do you know what happened? Nothing! Nothing happened, except for that I wore comfortable clothing, and I felt comfortable in my presentation. Yay! Good for me!
Now all I need are gender neutral pronouns that everyone else understands then I could be referenced that way and I wouldn’t feel weird with folks referring to me as he or she and all would be right with the world for me!
Thanks to everyone for the wonderfully supportive comments and thoughts to my previous post. It really is not that disruptive to my life, I just want folks to understand that my life is not this peachy, easy, lucky, simple little life where everything is awesome! So thanks everyone!
Love you!
Love yourself!

I think I understand where you're coming from in these posts on comfort.
I wish my given name was more gender neutral. I know I could change my name, but it's not that easy being as established as I am. And I have yet to find a gender neutral name that fits me and that I like. I could at least try mixing in some women's items like you did there.
Best wishes!
