Shopping. I usually just jump in and start trying on stuff and working with the sales gals. It works for me but then I am bold and live in Las Vegas. Well if you need to shop in boy mode for your girl stuff and don't feel comfortable making explanations then get some biz cards printed up billing you as a female impersonator, or stand up comedian. Easy just to hand over a card and they are cheep if you go to a ready printer such as Kinko's. If your embarrassed still then use a fake phone number or your cell phone number..

Shaving. Well we all know that girls shave their legs and usually don't have fur on tier arms. So we gotta shave or wear long sleeves and slacks all the time. So what do you tell your golf buddies? Hell girl.. you are sun sensitive or you feel that to much sun is not good for you (who wants skin cancer) and you shave so that the sun block is easier to put on and don't matt the (nasty) hair.

Stockings. Usually not a problem. They hide under you slacks. But damn if somebody happens to peek through the crack of the door while you have a sit and see the lace top of those thigh highs you just have to wear. Honey they are support hose and a lot cheeper then the ones they sell at the medical supply stores..

I don't know about you but nice nails when I go out are important. Since I deal in a casino my hands are looked at a lot. And I wear acrylic overlays full time. Now this wont work if you work on a loading dock or assembly line but. I get my nails done a little longer then the average guy and wear clear polish on then. I find a square cut works best (even has some biz types comment that this is a big thing for execs back east). Most of the time nobody even pays attention. Night out come and just add your fav polish for a nice fem. look..
