transHow do I go stealth? I mean, I'm still developing and I don't know how well I pass yet but it seems to be so good so far. I have been very selective in who I tell about my trans status. Usually, it's just other trans people or people I know who we share trans friends so I know they're cool. Mainly, though, I'm fairly stealth in RealLifeTM. However, my fear has been on and off that the 'net is going to out me. There are pictuers of me on the 'net and stuff where I am talking about being trans (for example, all my LiveJournal posts and comments on all the communities). How much of a danger is this?
Is it really possible to be stealth or will any cursory background check reveal my name and gender change and, pre-op, my birth certificate and social security card gender (or changes even after I'm post-op)? How much info is floating out there for people to just grab?
I'm going to try to lockdown online as much as possible and probably create a new LJ account. However, I do have the problem that my username is attached to these posts and to my name because I use it for everything (BAD Tamara!). How do I work on assimilation?
