Title: Transitioning at work
Post by: ToniB on April 08, 2015, 08:24:52 AM
Hi Folks

I have been slowly easing into dressing completely at work and for the last week I have been presenting fully female makeup hair and clothes .Today I went to Our security section and had my security pass updated to read my feminine name with a photo of me fully made up and dressed properly .I am now accepted as a woman yahoo  ;D :D ;D .My work coleagues have not batted an eyelash as I tranformed before their eyes .In fact I think a lot of them looked foreward to seeing what I changed each day .Best of all My wife has accepted me dressing for work without a murmur so thats great as well .One of my girlfriends said that her superviser was talking to her and said we are all enjoying watching you help to titivate her .I dont care as I absolutely love presenting in my true gender

Love Anita xxxx

Congratulations! That must be a real relief. Sometimes I think people aren't as surprised as one would think. There are certain characteristics like body language and pattern of speech that come naturally when your mental gender doesn't fit your physical gender. Even though Its not something you are trying to do and for them it may only touch their subconscious, but its still there.
