American Heroes Coming Out From Behind the Badge

[Estrodile]

Thank you for sharing!

I'm a Paramedic student as well as a transwoman. Although I will not have to "come out" to my fellow 'medics, as I am living full time as a woman, it is reassuring that you seem to have had positive responses from your coworkers.

Personally, I think it's a little disappointing that your story is the only trans related one in the book because this could mean that other men and women are afraid of the exposure.

@Estrodile- Most LGBT outreach programs have a hard time finding transgender people willing to come forward. So many in the trans-community don't want to rock the boat and live stealth. There is no problem with that at all but at the same time, a few must stand up and show our faces. I assure you, the other stories in the book are very inspiring as well. Thank you for the supportive words and please check out the book, I think you will find it interesting!!!!
