This morning's NEWS:
My secret past may not be so secret as I had believed...
....I was at my dentist last February to get my teeth cleaned... the Hygienist there is one of my 5 cis-women friends that I go to the gym with every week... she invited me to her house last night after work, she knows that I have been working long hours this last month, usually eating my dinners at the coffee shop and wanted to treat me to a home made dinner. After her delicious dinner... we sat and talked in front of her fireplace and finished off a couple bottles of wine that we had started working on during dinner.
Well, it is shockingly now apparent to me that dental professionals can recognize female teeth and mouth features versus male teeth and male mouth features. Evidently the size of some key teeth like the front upper centrals and the molars... and the overall size of the palate can be unique to one's born gender.
I suppose that after the wine and the fact that she was a getting very close and a little touchy-feely with me that she asked me directly if I were a trans-woman. As soon as she said that she got all serious and apologized profusely for asking... she said that she had no idea until that cleaning appointment... that I had appeared to be perfectly woman-like in my appearance, actions, voice, etc... and she reminded me that I got compliment about my figure and curves from her and another one of my gym friends in the locker room when we were changing out of our sweaty sports bras and tops last month.
I was in shock (still am) but finally settled down and realized that I should be very relieved that my past is now revealed. Evidently for the last month, my group of cis-women gym friends that I go to the gym with have been discussing me among themselves and then she admitted ...also with some others. She told me that some of the people that they know in town had suspicions about me ... including my Male Suitor #1 ... and the owner of the coffee shop too.... and whoever else??? I should have known that new arrivals are very scrutinized.
This is actually very good news... I have been so apprehensive and nervous about how I was going to reveal myself lately and now that burden appears to have been lifted. Honestly, since this has been the town news for about a month now, I have not seen any downside to the reactions from from my clients and my friends here.
Writing this has been exhausting for me and I need to get back to work at my desk... I will write more a little later... and definitely more about (female) Suitor #4.
Bye for now...
