Good luck to you! I agree with Rapaire primarily, though it's true that depending on how you are feeling in your new "skin" will have a lot to do with how you are accepted.

I have lived with a "tranny" and know it hasn't been an easy transition for him/her. It took her a long while before she felt she could perform with the same ease as her former male self.

If I had any advice, it would be to surround yourself with supportive people, both friends and audiences. You will know when the time is right to branch out to perhaps more risky venues.

Again, best of luck!..xx..e
