Consequences of coming out

[Krisi]

................ I think one needs to consider the members status when accepting advice on here. There is a blurring of the lines where full timers are offering blanket advice that is not always applicable to the average crossdresser.

I think that's a very important distinction. We are each in our own unique situations and it's best to keep in mind that even well meaning advice from someone else may not be the best advice for you.

.................. Krisi,
I never understand the comment ," Only tell the people that need to know " , if you are OUT then you are OUT it's almost impossible to be selective and very damaging trying .

That bit of advice is give as a crossdresser to a crossdresser. "Crossdresser" in this case being someone who is not living as a woman or out to the world and wants to remain that way for whatever reason. Not someone who is already "out" to the world as you seem to be.

In my case, since I share a home with my wife, she obviously needs to know. My neighbor does not need to know, my mechanic does not need to know and my letter carrier does not need to know. My friends and other family members do not need to know.
