I was VERY shy before I started going out so much as Kim. I was so shy that I used to get sick to my stomach the night before I would leave for a service call to a customer that I hadn't met yet.
Once I started heading out the door "dressed" though, all of that went away. After all, what can be more socially difficult and awkward than a man spending time in the world dressed as a woman? After getting the courage to do that, everything else seemed easy . . .
