Trans Talk on Yik Yak | Has anyone here had to make a really tough decision between their career and transitioning? I work in a very masculine field that’s not very accepting. I feel a good amount of momentum in it and it’s only making life harder. Anyone been in a similar spot?

I will say that it’s very nuanced but generally what I say in situations like these is jobs are temporary but you are in your body forever.

You could always transition on the downlow. It’s possible to hide it for a while

I kinda am already, haven’t started hormones but have been growing hair out for over a year. Eye lashes are real long I think it’s odd nobody has caught on tbh
