And now I am out at work.

My deversity manager and my boss know I am transgender. I told them I do not know what that means but at least they know I am transgender.

I can  not hid any more.

Alice,

Telling your employer maybe even more stressful than telling your family or SO.  I'm proud of you.

Thanks all,

I raised the skirt issue with my HR Manage - Did not do down that well. It all came out after much crying at work - I could not hide any more. Yesterday was rather a tearfull day and one I would rather forget. I now have a week off work to try and calm down and sort myself out.

I am in Sydney and I have a wonderful lunch with Carol and Kitten. I also went to the gender centre to see what was there. Tonight I am staying with my brother and how much comes out there  depends on how I feel. I know I should not hide from him but at the moment that what I feel like doing. Could be an interesting night.

Depite all that has happened in the last few days there is still some fight in me. I do not know why I want to fight this crazy thing. Perhaps I need to fight it a bit more so I really know what is right for me. There is now turning back after this last week but somehow that is something I want to do.

Anyhow I must go soon. I am at a internet Cafe here in Sydney.

Love to all.

Alice 

Hang in there Alice, it will all work out in the end...

That's a heck of a step to take Alice.  So how does it feel?  What was the reaction.  I know that when I came out to the big boss (by mail) the only reply I received was "I'll get back to you".  Not a resounding endorsement or encouragement.  In fact I didn't hear back for a couple of months... not the best time in my life.  What made you finally do it?

Well if I could be still hidding at work I would. My boss wanted to know why I Kept cring at work. It was a hard and unexpecetd week. I have started to talk to my brother about it as well. So just about everyone now knows about my TG life.

Now that all the social pressure of hiding it from others is being released things should start to slide to where you can now do the the things you want to do inside. Its now going to be what do "you want". No turning back nor hiding from what you want inside. Whatever it is, everyone knows now. Cant hide, lie, suppress, or be afraid of what you want now. Know what you want then just do it. Every knows, or is finding out now.
