Title: When to truly be you?
Post by: Skys_the_limit on February 16, 2011, 10:25:54 PM
So here's the scoop, I've been at my conservative, Christian job for over a year now, and it isn't just that I don't fit, it's mostly the money. I want to get a new job, I'm not completely out at work and I have this feeling I'll never be able to be. Anyways, when is it time to be myself.
I am on the bridge of passing, because of my breasts mostly, I have a binder and all, but it just makes them a lot smaller, I have like I think D maybe DD's sooo It's hard to hide them, and I haven't legally changed my name...so I just don't know what to do.

Any info, experience, or advice would be really welcomed...

When to truly be you?
All the time!

I have a large chest like you, D's, but I pass. And my name isn't legally changed, but I pass.

I think you should just be you! And if the job you have hinders that, get a new job! And if the name you have hinders that (but it really only does when you need to present ID, IMHO), then change it! Life is what you make it, right? So make it awesome!


Sorry if I don't make much sense. I have a flu so I'm kind of loopy :D

You're completely right, and I think I know exactly how I'm gonna handle the job situation.
