A lot of interesting comments to this thread. As for myself, I'm fine with staying in the closet and going all out once a year at TG events like Be-All. For me, I just don't care about showing society how different I am and hope they are as opened mined as I am. This is a personal journey and one I'm willing to share only with those select few I trust. Although I admit to having urges to just run out the door as my femme self, I feel keeping this private makes going out that one time a year all that much more special.
