Thank god for this forum. It is early Christmas morning and there is vertially nothing else going. I of lately been having an increasing desire to come out to more people. It stated when I helped out at the "Calgary Girlfriends" information table at the Calgary sex show. I wore a short skirted bussiness suit with 5" heels and a bright red blouse. This worked well with a short blond wig.. I spent a good part of a sat and sun there but did not see anyone I knew. It turned out that was the wedge in the closet door. it gave me an opening to let a few people know of my hobby. The conversation Goes Like This
"what did you do this weekend?" I helped out at the Calgary show. " oh you did a set for them" No I worked at an information table. "Oh which one?" the Calgary Girlfriends. "Really who are they" A transgenered support group. "how did you get involved with them?" I'm one of them. "Oh".
It's was easyer than blurting "out I'm a crossdresser" I am still paranoid about close relatives but others mainly theatre people would probably be ok with it. I see by the posts that there are quite a few in my age group 60+ are you finding this is happening to you? This increasing desire to come out to more people. You let them know then what? The akward silence or the quiet "that is more than I wanted to know about you". Once it out you can't put it back in. I'M hoping that the rumor mill will help pass on this informaion
and those who are curious or really interested will ask me about it. Some Christmas day thoughts. Billie
