    Still going though some of the links. Being full stealth and in my current situation, this is great stuff to absorb.

    Great list Carol - Faye seems to have listed quite a few I was already aware of ... well, the more the merrier! One I found useful and quite fun is http://www.lauras-playground.com/ this is not a recommendation, as my loyalty is to the TG cause not any single website or group as such, however being better informed is always a huge advantage in life

    one of the most important factors is to have enough self love and self worth before coming out or you may end up feeling depressed.
