My 'Sister'...

[Donna Joanne]

Recently I was trying to show a female friend of mine a photo on my phone. I was scrolling through my photos when she saw this photo of me with no makeup and just a wig. She asked me "Is that your sister?" Needless to say, that 'cat is out of the bag'. But I did take that as a compliment. Just another warm and fuzzy feminine moment. I'm really beginning to love life again!

Own the compliment, Donna! You could easily be mistaken for your "sister" in that photo!

How did you handle the cat being out of the bag?

Hugs,
Persephone.

Persephone,

Thanks for the compliment. It did make me feel really good. Never really have had a problem presenting female, just always worried about my voice.

As too how I handled it, well, I can mark her off my 'people I need to tell about my transition'. She was actually very supportive and said it really explained a lot of things about me. And I'm 99.999% sure she will keep my secret.

LDH,
Donna
