For complicated reasons, I'm not in a great living situation or economic situation at present. Without going into too much detail, let's just say I'm self-employed. If I were to come out, I would certainly lose some of my clients, and that would put me in a financial bind.
I'm aware that Internet forums are not the right place to look for legal (or medical) advice! To learn whether I have any legal protection or recourse at all, I need to consult an attorney.
Having said that, I'm curious:
Have any of you girls run into situations of this sort, either with respect to an employer or while self-employed? How did you handle it? What happened? Were you able to avail yourself of any legal protections?
I guess the question concerns being accidentally outed too, but that's not at the front of my thoughts tonight. Tonight I'm thinking of intentionally outing myself, openly cross-dressing (perhaps often), while protecting myself legally and financially to whatever extent I can.
I should also say that I'm not interested in SRS. An actual legal change of identity is ... well, that's a whole other set of headaches. I might consider it at some point down the road, if I thought anything was to be gained by it, but that would be later, much later.
Any advice? Hit me with your best shot! :daydreaming:
