Paola, Yes, just read a lot of old threads and there are a lot of those sad stories, as well as some successful and happy ones, in the minority in my opinion. Would you be coming out as a crossdresser or transsexual? That makes a big difference, especially when it comes down to who should you really come out to. I call it a need to know issue. Right now I am out to the world as a CD except anyone who knows me in male mode. There is just no need for anyone to know. That may change one day and I will decide how and to whom when it becomes necessary. If I was TS and planned to go full time, then the target audience would be much larger.
