It's been over a month since I have been going into work as my alter ego as some would say or perhaps my other personality.  The support from most of my co-workers has been amazing because they have accepted me and treated me with respect and courtsey, some are still trying figure me out, a few stare, and only one has started being a little condescending and derogatory. But, I will not let that take away from all the positive aspects of what others have said or done to show their support.  

I have almost no fear about going out in public, work has shown me that because I am loved and respected not just because I respect others but because I still do my job while expressing my femme personality and on occasion get make up and wardrobe tips from the ladies at work  Some have even joked with me that I can't be coming to work better dressed than them.  I feel natural, like I have been a girl all of my life.  It has become routine for me to get up in the mornings to shower, get dressed, do my make up and hair then leave for the day.  Throughout the day people still see me, the same as I was back in June, dedicated (or at least I hope so), willing to help and do my job as required but now I do it in a dress or skirt the only thing I don't wear except for rare occasions is heels ( I do a lot of walking), I really love my heels.

But, now I should revert to my natural state as guy because I have been a girl for most of the week, that's just the mood I have been in so it may come as a shock to some other will probably gloss over it and go on.  I will, however, continue to come into work at least two or three times a week maybe more again depending on my mood. For now, my alter ego will go back on the shelf temporarily but I never stop being me (insert your favorite cliché here).
