This morning I went out for coffee with a woman friend whom I've known for a few months. We have a certain amount in common. I was thinking of telling her about being transgendered, but wasn't sure, so I thought I'd wait and see how I felt.
After an hour or so of chatting about this and that, I did tell her. We talked about it for a while, then went on to talk about other things. At the end of the coffee (which lasted for two hours) she told me something very personal about herself.
I've known for a long time that for many women, it's no big deal. (I mean, they wear women's clothing all the time!) Or maybe I'm just fairly smart about choosing who to talk to, that's possible too.
Anyway, I just wanted to share that. It feels good.
