I told one of the guys at about me transitioning because of the whole gay rumor thing. After he realized I like girls he was okay with it. I have to work next to him every day and I could feel his homophobia. He said, if that is all I am doing he has no problem with it. It's gay guys like the one that lied about me he can't stand to be around.
I also asked him what reinforced him to believe that I was gay? He said all the feminine stuff I do and the clothes I wear. I smiled and thinked him for using the word feminine. It may not be passing but it sure does show. I can't wait for the looks to go with what I do have.
Glad it worked out for you. He'll be glad he doesn't have to worry that you will catch him perving on some hot chick who walks in to where you work! ;)
Karen.
Well it's good he came clean about not liking the gays because they're jack asses and not because they're gay.

Or that now they can go have a drink and both scope out the hot chicks :laugh:
(hey, I have worked with people that took me to do the same thing as the token lesbian in the group when they knew nothing of my past)
I figure if they thought I was gay for four months the truth would be easyer to tell. When the gay guy at the bar found out I am transitioning they scatter. Lol. I over herd one say damn ->-bleeped-<-s. Not sure why the dislike but I guess it don't realy matter anyway.

I agree it doesn't matter one bit, it's their problem. Probably because it's the closest thing they could reach for and say to defend their masculinity from a perceived threat (your transition reflecting on them...). People.

last weekend at the bar a gay guy came up to me and shook my hand and asked if I was gay. I said no I am transitioning from male to female. He wiped is hand on his pants like it had crap on or something then walked a way. That's okay about hour later a guy shoved a dollar in my bra. Lol. Lesbians seem to take to me okay one even bought a couple beers for me. ^-^
