I've been out at work at my various jobs since '84 but the most challenging was my current job - I'm in a very conservative county, and I was actually the first openly out gay person to work there. I have to admit that most folks didn't know because for much of my first two years there I was dating an FTM as he transitioned and so of course I referred to home as He and there was just no reason or appropriate time to explain the details.

We do finally have a lot more out faculty and staff, and even some straight staff are coming to the meetings for the newly formed GSA.
