But at work (software testing) I'm not brave enough. I'm on my way getting a fix contract and a promotion. And I need the money (don't we all?)
But I'll try to be more myself at university. In my private life I'm more and more able to do so

Yes I hear, clothes aren't that big of deal, in my head though, it is just to me (isn't it always?)
I totally understand about trying to be yourself somewhat. I had to teach myself and try to behave like a male even though this body is male. I would analyze an awkward moment or a decision thats taken wrong and figure out the appropriate male response. I had to learn how to get cocky and self-confident, to not move a certain feminine way, hold my head up and look them in the eye, develop a strong but restrained attitude,....
It took a lot of practice and booze. I'm sure that I could of done it without the booze, but it sure helped.
Good luck!
