Kind of Scary

Recommended Posts

I just started my new job as a real estate agent this week!!! I am stealth at my new job. No one knows that I am trans as far as I can tell--though I am a lesbian....However, I am still fearful that one day my voice will crack, or something else that will out me.  On the one hand it awesome to be just another one of the girls and nothing more, but is another to have to worry about getting exposed.

Congrats on the new gig, Marcie!

Hopefully, you'll get comfortable soon and this fear will fade over time. I bet you do just fine!

Congratulations Marcie!

 

Don't worry about the stealth thing too much, I'm stealth with my customers and believe me, you think you make mistakes when you don't! You'll be fine!

Yes, what Cindy said.  Plus you look so good your voice won't be a concern.  Mine can be all over the place due to breathing difficulties and no one has flinched yet. 

 

Congratulations on the new endeavor.  Million dollar seller, here you come! 

 

Cheers, Jani

 That is so awesome, I am so jealous, I’m only just now starting to plan some basic wardrobe changes. I look forward to the day when I can be in your situation and worry about the same things, being just one of the girls must be an amazing thing, I can’t wait to get there myself but I’m very jealous of you right now!

Hugs,

Jae

Congratulations Marcie! Just live your life and the world will roll on. No-one will expect anything different so they are not looking for it.

Congrat's Marcie!

 

Hope you love your new career. After a while you will see once again that our fears tend to be way bigger than reality. 

 

Lots of love,

Thank you everyone. I just spent this weekend demonstrating a game at a science fiction convention. I think I taught about 100 people how to play a game of thrones board game.....my voice did not crack. About the only embarrassing point was when my legs got tired and said said something to the effect of being on my knees. LOL...

 

All in all it was great to do that as I think it was a great learning experience.

It is so wonderful when you finally find that nobody realizes your past or if they do they simply accept you as you are.  Experiencing what you are at this point Marci is wonderfully liberating.  I'm fortunate to have found the same but still it's hard not to feel like i'm climbing back into a closet where i'm afraid someone will out me.  That for me now is the thing i try to watch.  It becomes like a balancing act but at least i know it can balance.  Have fun!

 

Hugs,

      This is a great analogy. The statement is true as it relates to the tree. The analogy fits because we as a LGBTQIA community are stronger when we stand together. It also work here on Transgender Pulse Forums. The support I feel from so many others has made me comfortable with my stance, because I'm in a beautiful forest of friends. So when I'm out alone and confronted. I can respond and act like the single tree in the field, surviving whatever comes my way. My roots reach back and communicate with others like me.    Standing Strong,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Mindy, that would be so awesome of you.  Please make the edit for me, and thank you so much!

      M.   The term bigender works for me because after taking the time to explore my feelings, I kept coming to the same conclusion, that while I felt an overpowering need to express my inner woman, I also enjoyed being a man.  I realized that my personality was equal parts man and woman and to be happy and fulfilled, I needed to express both sides.  There are challenges living a life of two-gender expression, but I'll expand on some of those in future posts.     Hugs,   Sally

      Sally, a moderator can edit the post adding "Post 3" if you would like. Let me know and I'll be glad to take care of it. That way your numbering system is in tact.   Hugs,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      I thought Hey, I can't be experiencing Gender destroyer because it doesn't fit the narrative, but Hey I can. I am experiencing mild discomfort in relation to my gender. Because and that can be a form of mild form of it this forum because their elements of my gender that are out of alignment with my sign gender at birth. There are elements of my gender I have been holding back on some I did not even know for fear it did not fit was told was not very manly or in some other way not correct for someone who is an amab. I tried embracing and expressing some of these parts of me even for just a little bit every once in a while and it feels like a relief to me like a weight has been lifted.

      Welcome to Transgender Pulse Forums @violet r   I think we all were scared with our first post here on TPF. I hope you come to find this site as welcoming as an old friend. Not knowing the type of retail you're in, it is hard to know how they will react to your coming out. I would hope that if it's part of a larger corporation they may have corporate policies supporting/protecting you once you decide to come out publicly. No one here will rush you, or try to slow you down, once you've decided to come out. Some of us are secret sisters, and others of us are as flamboyant as they come. The cool this is you get to choose. You be you.   Best wishes, stay positive, and motivated,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Welcome aboard, Violet. What a pretty name!   You are among friends here. We are all on a journey, with things in common despite our individual uniqueness. I hope that makes sense!

      Oh Yes!   This one is so obvious to anyone who has had a cat and observed any Big Cat.
