Think its okay for me to go to prom dressed as a girl?

I now realize that I would much rather be a girl than a guy. I think it would be really cool to go to prom dressed as a girl. Think people would get pissed or would it be okay. If I do go, any hints about what I should wear? Thanks

The only con is the possibility that you might be kicked out of the prom (thanks to the large quantity of oversheltered conservative teachers).
mistaric answered Monday February 5 2007, 6:34 pm: good luck
maybe they'll be accepting.
unless you live in a hick-ass town like mine,
where everyone thinks gays, bis, gender-change, and piercings, are retarded.
But no matter what, please yourself, not the world.
Either your friends will accept you and your decisions, or they're not good friends.
Best of luck (no advice on what to wear)

I suggest not wearing something over the top, like don't wear a super bright ugly color like super hot pink or bright orange or something that will make you stand out and look like a drag queen instead of what you actually are.
also since you were born a guy, you probably have broader shoulders and less hips than most girls so i suggest not wearing something that has a tube top design, and maybe try to find a dress with an empire waist? something that gets closer in the middle to give the illusion of curves.
also don't wear heels if you are already really tall

As what you should wear,I don't really know.It's hard since I don't know what your style is like,but just look around and see what interest you.I would go for something that's somewhat simple but dressy at the same time,but that's just me.
