A community for transfeminine people and experiences.

This is a supportive community for all transfeminine or questioning people. Anyone is welcome to participate in this community but disrupting the safety of this space for trans feminine people is unacceptable and will result in moderator action.

Debate surrounding transgender rights or acceptance will result in an immediate ban.

Posters may express that they are looking for responses and support from groups with certain experiences (eg. trans people, trans people with supportive parents, trans parents.). Please respect those requests and be mindful that your experience may differ from others here.

To make such a request, at the start of the body of your post, not in the title, the first line should look like the this: [Requesting Engagement from _________]

Hey folks,

I've been semi out at work for a while now, with our communication systems showing she/they and dressing femme in the workplace.

I've settled on wanting to be called by a different name, and talking with my team lead and HR contact am planning a switch over on Monday.

I don't expect any hostility from the team I'm in, and the company has been very supportive to date.

That doesn't stop me being a little nervous with the visibility of Slack etc changing over to a distinctly female name.

Was wondering if the experiences of other transfemmes coming out in such a clear way in their workplaces.
