    Then don't talk. There is no obligation. My voice is by far my least passing feature. But that is the case for a lot of us.

    I came out to my dad. I don't know yet how he will take it.

    I came out as genderfluid to one of my best friends one hour ago and she accepted my gender and I'm so happy right now! (!)

    As I wrote some minutes ago, I came out to my dad, and he's so accepting. I'm so happy! (!):eusa_danc

    I just changed my listed pronouns on a couple of sites from they/she to just 'they'. It's not much, and I doubt folks will notice, but still!

    Even if I don't have my breasts or wig on or makeup, I wear feminine clothes everywhere I go now but work if I have to present male. Wearing very feminine skinny jeans and wedges and a jacket from Charlotte Russe.

    I even wear a short wig lately just to cover up my god damn head... man I need to be out to everyone soonnnn.

    Still doing the best I can.

    Bought my first obviously men's shirt today. Don't really look androgynous yet, but I'm on that path :slight_smile:

    Started talking to my brother-in-law about changing names and stuff. I'm still really scared about trying to change my name (especially since I've been out as trans for 7ish years and have never bothered to go by a different name) but I'm glad he was so helpful and not overly dramatic about it. Having a trans brother-in-law really is useful.

    Well i just went shopping looking glamorous. Never have I been called miss or hello ladies when I was with my friend. And no less than 4 different women commented on my "fabulous boots and socks combination" and my perfect fall attire.

    Not really so small in reality, but I just got insurgence approval for top surgery. :slight_smile:. I'm relieved and excited and terrified (I am afraid of needles and surgery and such) at the same time.

    Awesome!

    --

    Ordered a new binder. My 2-in-1 packer is on the way too. I'm going to be donating the old binder once this one arrives. I'm not really being that responsible with my cash I hate to admit but made sure to pay bills first at least.
