I guess it's an LGB group now

I've just quit the organisation's LGBT group, and removed their events from my Outlook calendar. It's a large group, and my being the only transgender member was probably asking for trouble, for whatever it was worth.

A summary of what happened is that someone - I don't know who - was waiting for me to say something that could be used as a pretext for getting me into serious trouble. I rarely said anything to begin with.

It really was my own damn fault for not following my own advice: If you're going to involve yourself in an LGBT group, make sure it's a small number of people you can trust, and make sure everything's off the record. Preferably off the radar as well. Transgender people need to be so damn careful, things being the way they are.

Maybe it's a lesson learned this time.
