Generally I prefer to dress in as much of a gender-neutral manner as I possibly can - usually in loose shirts and sports attire. I only ever wear more female-oriented clothes at official occasions, due to the annoying insistence of my family members (because they're adamant on keeping up pretenses of so-called normalcy, even though I've never identified with my birth gender. Go figure ).

*laughs* I'm honestly not surprised that you haven't heard of Moldova - it is a rather small and economically insignificant country, right on the border with Russia. I was quite glad to leave and even though Romania isn't all that great either, it does have a much better standard of life by comparison.

I should add that these two countries (Romania and Moldova) were originally one single state, before their political separation in 1940 (when the Soviet Army came barging in and annexed Moldova into the USSR, where it's stayed, until 1991, when it declared itself an independent state). Essentially these two have the same language and culture, with the only difference being that Romania could align itself with the West somewhat, while Moldova was held back constantly by Russia's interests in the area.
