New co worker does not get it

[torig]

I have a new co worker that does not get it and he says I am gay.I was not too happy when he told me this.I am pretty much out as a part time crossdresser at work,rest of my co workers including my boss are pretty much cool about it.This co worker whom started Tuesday saw I have a picture of my wife and I on my toolbox.I keep on telling him that I am a heterosexual man that likes to wear women's clothes dressing as a woman part time and I am not gay.Calls me a liar and says I am still gay.My boss is even fed up with him saying this and told him that he needs to do his research.Boss has been on my side of this and told him stop what he is doing.

Well its up to you what you say since you know them best...
you might look up a brochure called "doh-transgender-experiences.pdf" . Only thing I would disagree with is page 7, where they state stress, instead many experience relief.
It states that being trans has biological connections, to do with development before birth which influences the sense of self.
It explains some of the feelings transgender people have.
You might think about showing.

His knowledge is simply outdated. And gender identity and sexual preferences are two different things.
