3. These In-Laws Are Kinda “Cool”
I came out to my (now-ex, as ever) wife as a cross-dresser, she was super cool. We planned to go to Sparkle, which is effectively trans-pride in our city, for the weekend and wife didn’t want to lie to her darling mommy about what we were up to so outed me to her family. So I felt I had to also talk to my parents since it’d be odd for the mother-in-law to know but not them, so did, that was uncomfortable.
Then, the next time her mom was due to visit, not long after, it was suggested to me that me being in girl-mode would help normalize my weirdness as part of that relationship, fair enough. Somehow, between my ex and I both getting carried away, that idea turned into mother-in-law, two sisters-in-law and all their husbands coming to ours for an afternoon with tea, sandwiches, and drinks all served by me mincing around in a french maid outfit, fishnets, and heels. Didn’t look any of them in the eye ever again. I did get my butt grabbed by my 65-year-old mother-in-law way, waaaay too much that afternoon.
