My morning should be interesting. I am meeting with our affirmative action director because apparently I am the only trans-woman to ever come out and ask what work had for policies about transitioning.
I have been told they want to work with me on creating written policies. Beyond ‘we don’t discriminate against …’ which they have on the…[Read more]

This morning at work, I came out to the two girls I nanny. The parents already knew but I went to great effort to hide it from them thinking perhaps they were to young to understand/it’s the work place, etc. But my boss told me they’d never said anything about it and they wouldn’t care anyway.
So we were talking about giving and getting flowers…[Read more]

You guys, I’ve had a girlfriend for a week (well, officially/exclusively… but we’ve been dating for almost a year) and I’m scared because tomorrow is the date I have set to come out to my mom. Quite a few of my friends know, and my little brother knows. He says that our mom suspects it, so I’m thinking I shouldn’t be as worried (?). But I’m…[Read more]

You set a date? Better than me. I decided when people were worthy, fretted about it at every opportunity (read: whenever I was with that person) and eventually kind of blurted it out after “I have something to tell you” was used as the generic opening line.
I think you should just work up your confidence beforehand and go for it. Assuming you…[Read more]

So, I lied and totally chickened out on the date I had set. Did that on the next day and the next day and the next day too. Last night, I realized that the only way I would be able to get it out is if I told her I had something to say. Felt a little discouraged when she said “Don’t tell me tonight… wait until tomorrow.” But today we had the…[Read more]

I think the necessity of coming out to people was something I mentally created/adhered to. I say this because literally EVERYONE knew already. I told my mom and got an “I know.” I told my friends, and from EVERY ONE OF THEM, I got an “I know.” I told my teacher-mentor guy, and he said “I know.” I told the family I live with now rather than my…[Read more]
