Nothing could be further from the truth Dee Ann . I expended a tremendous amount of energy, angst, money and personal losses to be where I am. I continue every single day to accepted as female and its a huge challenge. I will never be stealth due to where I live, my age and owning and running my own electrical/mechanical contracting company. But trust me I have no intention of living in trannyland forever either.
That's the reality of living as a transwoman 24/7. I can't go back to a safe comfort level as a male. You may think it's I got mine screw the rest, but I worked damn hard just as anyone that is actively transitioning from one gender to another.
Hell I would venture a guess a majority that post here are hiding from their spouses and so's. You want acceptance and the freedom to express freely, then get out and go out with Cis people. Not just go out solo or with a group of CD's to dinner or whatever. Join a social club and mingle. Until Trans individuals stop hiding and start interacting with the general public amongst them socially will the stigma hopefully subside.
