Dallas,

It's not so much the point of passing physically as it is passing with an attitude of knowing your a woman.

As Morphous said to Neo in the movie The Matrix; " Don't Think You Are, Know You Are".

I took this quote to heart when I first went full time.

Regardless of what we think people passing by us aren't spending their precious time thinking...Hmmmm..I wonder if that person's a male or female?

They are not.

Do we think we are so special that everyone we pass by is dropping everything their doing or thinking about to fixate on us?

Of course not.

Continue to walk out your door and walk forward.

Congrats on starting full time, I can't give you any expert advice but I would suggest you should concentrate on how you feel on public and go from there.

Passing in the first 3 weeks? Wow! It took me almost a year to get there ( with two years of voice work almost done)

When I went full time it really didn't matter to me if people read me as trans. I figure that there just aren't too many 6' 2" / 240 pound gals running around. There's so much to learn for me...

it is almost immaterial whether friends are silent on reading you or not, isn't it? Isn't it more important that they respect you right to live as who you are? That you know is happening whether they have figured you out or not. So I think it's time to celebrate!!!
