Title: Any short funny stories about your transition you would like to share?
Post by: Denise on April 03, 2017, 10:45:07 AM
Sometimes I'm just looking for a smile or laugh.  Maybe you have a funny transition story to tell.  Try to keep it short.

For example, before I came out at work I wasn't paying attention and walked into the women's wash room as my boss was walking out of a stall.  Whoops.

Lol, oh my gosh that sounds terrifying! I hope that wasn't too awkward.

I always think it's kind of funny that my not-trans partner also takes the same dose of Spiro that I take, so we started trading Spiro tablets of the same dose.
I have the generic and hers come from a compounding pharmacy, so mine have a weird, gross minty taste and hers are neutral, and I wanted those instead XP

I hadn't officially come out out work yet, but my immediate section knew.
A guy in another section on my floor talked to my friend and says "I think that [old name] is beginning to look like a women."
What was your first clue? The makeup, the breasts or the dresses?

Then there was this other guy, who I don't speak to much, but literally sits across from me.
Me: "You know I'm transgender right?"
Him: "What? Oh, I thought I saw you wearing makeup the other day."
Me: "I'm wearing dresses too. How did you not notice?"

Then, the other day. A guy who I haven't seen in a a few months, saw me on the floor. Later he asks a friend,
"What ever happened to [old name], because I saw this women today and they had the same eyes."

Yeah, guys can be clueless.

That's what I'm talking about.  Humor.  It will set you free.

Last summer I was biking with a group and I was next to a guy when the road up ahead was torn up.  I announced to those around me "I'm coming out..." And he replied "oh really? I had no idea." He got a chuckle out of it then I did finally come out to him.
