Coming out is a pretty important process.

And it is a process. For trans people, coming out is made a little more complicated, and the degree of complication follows the sort of trans person they are.

For some trans people, coming out is really and truly just a matter of wearing clothes that make you feel better about yourself.

For others, it's about performing, about creating an illusion, about impersonation.

For even others, coming out is a monumental undertaking that once done, coming out as something else is easy.
