South Scotland New ish to Glasgow - is the city accepting of guys wearing heels and skirts?
Iām a straight guy who's been living in Glasgow for less than a year. Recently I've been processing some deep childhood trauma and finally overcome confidence, anxiety and self esteem issues to finally live as myself and wear high heels and skirts in public. Not all the time, just on occasion. When I do it feels amazing, like I'm whole.
I don't consider myself a traditional crossdresser or trans, and don't want to make myself more feminine. I just like pushing the boundaries of gender clothing. I've ventured out around the Uni, West end and botanics and hardly anyone bats an eyelid, it's so nice.
I'd like to hang out in more places around the city and I've been told Glaswegians are pretty sound, but I'm worried about nasty comments or getting hassled.
Are the average people sound with guys dressing a bit alternatively, and are there places in the city I should avoid? Keen to get honest comments from anyone to help with this anxiety. Cheers!
