Yay me. I came out to two co workers today. I am strategic. I pick out the ones I need for support.
They didn't even raise an eyebrow.
Told them I'm on the waiting list to the gender therapist.
I have their total support in my transition. Great! :D
Skydiving is getting easier and easier.

Congratulations Tonie. Coming out isn't the easiest thing to do but with each success it comes a little easier. Watch out for those speed bumps along the way and try not to let them get you down.
Hugs,

That's great news Tony. One piece at a time. I am wondering judging by your avatar picture how everyone doesn't know.

Tonie that is great!!!! I came out about 2 months ago to my co-workers and it is great!!! Much easier than having to explain why I haven't gotten a hair cut or wearing certain things. It is great to have allies and support team behind you. Mine encourage me a lot, give me advice, and they even bring their old clothes that they think I will like. It is great and I love them for being so helpful and accepting of my changes. So I understand where you are coming from 100%!!!!!

Moni, my avatar is photoshopped. I wanted a pic of me but I did not want people to recognize me at once. If you want to see me, without the beard, check the 'casual business' thread. ;)
