[quote=Anonymous][quote=jindc]I sort of disagree - it's very office specific.  My office - all men but two, military, VERY misogynistic.  Nothing is subtle here.  They definitely care, definitely notice, and say inappropriate things.  I think if you aren't ready to be "out" you do what you can to make yourself feel comfortable physically and mentally.  I'm definitely not ready for them to know, so hopefully they just think I'm fatter!  
If your office is a great, supportive environment, I'm sure it's different!  So I understand where OP is coming from.  If/when she's ready, she'll figure it out.  Until then, hopefully the clothes recommended help!

I'm not even sure I'm going to tell my office at all.  I figure just let them keep talking behind my back.  [/quote]

Wow. What do they say? I am sort of waiting for this. My colleagues are wonderful but nosy -- very small office and most people have worked there many years and know each other well. I am the youngest and one of the newest. Some of the older women like to drop by and ask me, loudly and unsubtly, when I plan to have kids. Now that I actually am pregnant (but in the very early weeks), I am just waiting for one to suddenly notice that that time has arrived and proclaim it in a loud voice. They mean well ... [/quote]
