There is nothing like having zero replies, but in a support group, kinda makes you wonder exactly in what way of "support"?

*hugs* I am not on the site as much as before, but I still wish to offer support to those in need of it. *hugs* to you.

In a previous post, you referenced Caitlyn Jenner using the name Bruce at a country club. I am facing a similar situation with my transgender girlfriend. We have been dating for almost a year. She came out to her family in January and has made great strides this year, but she still does not dress when around her family. Her elderly parents (who showed an awesome outpouring of support) live with her, yet she is hesitant to dress around them. I feel bad about being this way, but I always feel disappointed when I pick her up and she is "in boy mode."
The minute she gets to my house (we live 50 miles apart and are usually together on weekends because of our jobs) she immediately dresses and looks awesome and even her personality is more radiant. We took a two week vacation together this summer and she dressed the whole time and I could tell that she really enjoyed it. I will be glad she feels comfortable enough to be herself 100% of the time. She said that is what she truly wants.
Currently she is seeing a therapists and getting ready to start on hormones. In a year or so, she hopes to get facial feminization surgery and breast implants.
