Quotetrying to locate work without telling prospective employers she is transitioning.
This can be a concern, but is almost randomly the case a TS has to face. Working with other people, especially in close environments and the chance that if you make any friends on the job with someone who does or may associate with people who know you closer and better, there is every likely hood that you will eventually be discovered anyway.
This is one of the reasons why each transitioning TS must be absolutly certain and convinced they can endure the process before making the Transition effort to go forward, as in most cases it is impossible to not have evident clues as to ones actual sexual identity and therefore almost impossible to hide from the company one works for, or from some of the employees, what we call confidence, determination and concentration of effort, as you can not quit or revert back to male even if you change your mind in any way that will leave you untouched and possibly unharmed by the incident.
Those that have any doubt whatsoever.
NONE, as even the most trusted of things can't be taken for granted. You either make it through or possibly be even worse off then ever before, or learn to adjust to a groundless being you started off believing your psych couldn't tolerate to begin with. All you can do at such points is remain concentrated on your goals and stick to them with no bad thoughts or worries other then continuing to be who you are regardless of outside circumstances, thats all there is for a transsexual, live it and make it, there can be no other choice, and for the true and original definition of a Transsexual as originally defined at the beginning of HBSOC and DMV definitions of what a transsexual actually is, a person who's sole intellectual and habitual being is of the opposite sex with little or no tolerance for living in life as the sex born as, all other definitions are the result of more modern definitions of those in society who do not wish to actually be of the opposite sex, not from clinical medical definition
And by the way. Think of another definition of what RLT is actually all about. It's not really about proving you are a woman, little of that at all, rather a clearing house of wiping away those that can't handle the life changes that occur on acount of trying to do it in the first place. It's more realistically about "Can you handle the problems involved and succeed in life because of those problems?"
All this is why it is sometimes important where you live at the time of transitioning. We passed a statewide law against Sexual Identity agaist discrimination here in California which has been effective since Jan 01 2004 and a measure against such things as medical restrictions on account of Transsgender activity was put into measure a couple or few months back. Pay attention to things like this in the where of transitioning. The wrong city or state elsewhere could leave you pretty dry, thats why I came to california at the beginning of the 21st centry. I was already in dark water back in Nevada where I came to here from, but I was born in Southern California and so am a California Native, making it all somewhat better as once hired, no employer can release me without a legitimate reason or lawsuit by this time. All that was figured into coming out on HRT before I did it and the arrangements were made with a lot of help from others who wanted to help me out with it, right down to where I would work without myself even considering such a career.
Think about things like that when planning to come out and where to do it at. And in your own best interest, unless under sever pressure for money, to inform any prospective employer the truth about yourself as most likely, that persecptive employer will at some time in the future discover the truth and can make you totally visable to everyone, even in a new enviro
