2019
I'm the brunette, transgender wife.
It's been a year since I took the last steps toward living authentically in public. This included coming out at work, including coming out to my conservative Christian boss. If I'm being honest, my wife and I, as well as allies, expected that there might be problems regarding my boss, related to me being transgender. For a long time after I came out, he acted uncomfortable around me.
Recently, my boss was walking past me, and he surprised me by stopping me. He shuffled his feet and looked at me.
"You know, I wasn't sure what to expect," he said. "But you caused me to realize how wrong I was in how I was thinking," he said, "about a lot of things."
Then he turned and walked off. Me? I went inside with a smile.
Transgender, Christian, Married, Parent, Military,....HAPPY! Conversation about my journey through transitioning, and information from my family members intended to help families of trans people.
