Hey all! I am a trans fem in my late 20's. I just moved houses a couple of months ago since starting a new job. I live in a relatively friendly state but you never know who you might come across. I generally refrain from delving into my past with people I come across mostly because I blend in and also because all my documents read 'female' .

So I was quite shocked when my landlord found out I am trans and I was unsure of how she would react. But to my surprise, she didn’t seem upset at all!! I asked her how she found out, and honestly, I had no clue! I was on panic mode, lol. Its the worse feeling when you don't want to share something and someone still gets to know it. Ugh. But she reassured me that it was no big deal.

So for context, I live in the house in her backyard that she has converted into a rental, and I have a habit of walking in the backyard (if the weather permits) while I take my calls with friends or family.

She then explained that one day, while I was walking in the backyard, she overheard me mentioning to someone on the phone about “estrogen doses.” Her kitchen is right there facing the back house, how dumb of me. She put two and two together from that, but she waited until we could talk face-to-face to bring it up (nice of her I guess). I was relieved though that she didn’t seem judgmental and actually wanted to understand.

Not sure if she could use this against me or not, but she is overall supportive and chill, lives with 2 cats and her daughter is out of state.
