It is good to get out, safely.  One venue can be a community book reading group or a Scrabble or card playing group or maybe a photography group or club.

You will know if they seem to be accepting after a visit or maybe two.  Try to find something you enjoy and you know other people are interested in and find a safe group to visit, and participate.

These groups do not need to be transgender only groups!  Just one that fits your interest and they treat you fairly.  Go a bit androgynous if that gives you more comfort on your first visit.  Also, try to do some volunteer work, that may be so good for you and others.

Always stay cheerful, be polite, kind, and understanding. Accepting yourself as the woman you are is very liberating.  Never underestimate the appreciation and respect of authenticity.  Help connect a person to someone that may be able to help that person.  Be brave, be strong.  A TRUE friend is a treasure.  Relationships are very important, people are important, and the sooner we all realize that the better off the world will be.  Try a little kindness.  Be generous with your time, energy, wisdom, and resources.   Inconvenience yourself to help someone.   I am a brown eyed, brown haired woman.
