Paradoxes, paradoxes, ... 😉💕

Quote from: KristaFairchild on Yesterday at 08:07:37 PMFact. Every time I go out in public or to work in a skirt or dress and full makeup I resist adding breast forms and a wig.
Also a fact. When I do this, I almost immediately feel that since I'm already obviously trans, why didn't I add at least the wig, because I like the way I look better that way.
And: I often repeat this back and forth nonsense.
Another of these ever present roller-coasters that are part of not yet being totally at ease with the public eye when in the new and shining armour.  The paradox? When not in the new and shining armour you aren't totally at ease with yourself.

Quote from: KristaFairchild on Yesterday at 08:07:37 PMThe other part says, "Girl! About 30 people at work really know you're trans and now you are considering showing up as Krista to the other 410? You're nuts!"
The 30 that know? How about the 130 that know? Or the 230 that at least have a hunch? Or the 330 that have received an e-mail with Krista's signature?

Quote from: KristaFairchild on Yesterday at 08:07:37 PMPart of me says, "Krista! It's time! People know anyway so go for your best and most authentic look!"
Well, they do know, don't they?


Be brave and bold! Many more of them than you think, already know. Most of them probably don't care, or are happy for you. The rest can <bad words here>, like Lori Dee said.
But I think you already know this and I also think you have already decided for yourself to be fully Krista on that day, but hearing a few supporting words here can be a good thing.
You've got this! Everything you write here, that I have read, says that you've got this!

All the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players.
To thine own self be true.

Out to self since March 5, 2026. My wife knows it all since June 23.
Integration ongoing. I'll cross the transition bridge when I get to it.

I don't know what your work is like and what is / isn't at stake. But I just gradually increased my femininity until I was Charlotte. Like you say by some point its fairly obvious so may as well go the full way.

Do you work Friday? Its a good day as most people are happy and its ideal opportunity to go full on you. Put on a smile,shoulders high, enjoy the day and then everyone goes home. Monday its normalised and you're done!

You can definitely do this. You've already done it really. This is literally there for the grabbing. Be brave, I'm sending you some if that don't give a.... energy!

Seriously messed up and broken demigirl

I did it! I'm truly and fully out at work. My work and community are intricately connected, so my transition is socially complete. 

My wife was deeply affirming this morning before I left for work as Krista and she met me afterward to support me. 

Lots of coworker fist bumps and affirmations. Triple that number walked right by me and I'm pretty sure it's because they didn't recognize me. Some said so later. 

Thanks everyone for your positive supportive comments ❤️

Let go of the things that no longer serve you... Let go of the pretense of the false persona, it is not you... Let go of the armor that you have worn for a lifetime, to serve the expectations of others and, to protect the woman inside... She needs protection no longer.... She is tired of hiding and more courageous than you know... Let her prove that to you....Let her step out of the dark and feel the light upon her face.... amg🌸
