To add a little clarification, I am TS, but for a number of years before that considered myself TV. In deed I was out and about 24/7 for about 3 1/2 years before I accepted I was TS. I never had any doubts about going out en-femme, however I had reservations because of how my family would be seen by society. As a family we worked together to a point where we were all in the community as females. When we shared Nigella with the world, we lost one family as friends, that was it, I went to work as female, and when I was made redundant, (job changes, nothing to to with CDing) I applied for and was given my present job as Nigella.
I respect everyones wish to live their lives as they choose, but as someone commented earlier, don't blame anyone but yourself if you can go out and about but won't.
Thanks for all the replies,
