Think before speaking
I was wandering around in Macy's one day and as is my habit I looked
over some dresses in the ladies department and saw one that was lovely
made of soft clingy nylon. An elderly woman came and stood next to
me as I touched it and said "It is really lovely isn't it". I sighed and said
"Yes, I wish it came in a short fat size. The woman stepped back and
said to me "Are you one of those men who wear women's clothes? Are
you wearing panties now? I mumbled something and took off to the
men's wear Department.

Yes it is always important to engage brain before putting mouth in gear. LOL
Sounds like no harm done, maybe just a bit of embarrassment. You not the first one to do something like that and surely won't be the last.

I don't know. "Steps back" and says "those" sounds like distancing herself from Vieja. I tend to be caught in that sort of situation when I want emotional support and it sort of comes out sideways - like my unconscious makes me more vulnerable than I should ordinarily be.
I often feel that is some element of me going women's clothes shopping (or makeup or wig or whatever shopping), to get that emotional support for my CDing. But I also tend to have my emotional barriers in place in case anyone takes it wrong. Mostly I have problems just when I'm plain looking for emotional support (rather than to do with the CDing) and don't realise it.
Not very nice...

I am normally very careful in Women's Wear but I was so wrapped up
in thinking how wonderful it would be to wear that dress that I got careless.
I sometimes browse pretending to be looking for something for my wife.
Actually she didn't use the word panties she said something like "women's
underpants.

The best defence is a good offence. You should have asked her if she was that old whore who used to turn tricks at the local biker bar. That would have shut her up really fast. It is nobodies concern why you are in the womens department, maybe you were planning on buying your SO a birthday gift.
So I concluded that there is nothing better for people than to be happy and to enjoy themselves as long as they can. People should eat and drink and enjoy the fruits of there labor, for these are gifts from God.

Re: Think before speaking
Back before I started going out full fem all weekend, I went into the local Wallmart in male mode and was looking a Skort and matching top. This GG salesperson came up and took the skort and held it to my waist. She then said it would look nice on me. She also commented on my good taste of matching tops too. Then she asked if I had a pair of heels to go with the outfit. I said, "No", and she took me to the shoe department and helped me pick out a pair of 2" heels and then over to the jewelry department to find some jewelery to go with the outfit. By the time she was finished, I had a Skort, Top, heels, necklace, bracelet, and watch. She asked if I needed anything else. I said, "No", and she thanked me for shopping at Walmart and left. When i got to checkout, the GG did not even bat an eye at the articles I had in my basket. She rang me up, I paid, and she said, "Thank you for shopping at Walmart and have a nice day".
Hugs,
JoAnn

I have read this a couple times now and I chuckle each time just imagining
it happening and how I would respond.

Re: Think before speaking
Wow, that is great JoAnn!
What an amazing salesperson. I so admire women who can be that confident and perceptive, to know what you want and tell you to buy it when you need that extra encouragement
Although I don't shop at Walmart, someone like that will certainly tempt me to.

JoAnn That is really awesome. To have a GG actually help buy feminine apparel is an experience to die for. Taking items to checkout doesn't scare me any more but the first time
was horrible. It happened in Walmart in the early morning with very few customers around. I was passing a Bra display and grabbed a boxed bra of what I presumed was the right
size and took it to checkout. The lady at checkout opened the box pulled out the bra and waved it around to open it up so she could see if I had not put a more expensive bra in
the box. I almost died of cardiac arrest. And of course the bra didn't fit and I didn't have the nerve to take it back. I have several bras that I bought on line that fit but I seldom
wear them because they make my chest itch for a couple of days where the bottom of the bra comes across my chest. Alas.

Excellent story JoAnn, I do hope the SA was on commission, that is just great selling. There are too many SAs who might d some of that for a woman, but would blanch at doing it for one of us.
