Nicole Behrend

I'm Nicole, a part-time woman from close to Frankfurt, working for a bank. Depending on how you ended up here, you may or may not know what to do with the term. I want to explain it here anyway.

I can't really fit myself into any of the usual categories. I don't feel like I was born in the wrong body, yet sometimes, or more often, I wish I'd been born a woman. But it's also more to me than just wanting to wear women's clothes. Nicole and her twin brother Christian are two personalities that coexist. 

​

So far, Nicole has lived a life of secrecy. In 2017 Nicole stepped out of the shadows and since then has increasingly emancipated herself. I want to live my life freely and with equal rights. I'm not hiding anymore, everyone can know that I exist. I'm still working on it, but I'm moving increasingly self-confident in Neu-Isenburg and Frankfurt.

​

Even in the bank it shouldn't be a real secret anymore and for those who ask themselves during team meetings - yes, I wear make-up when I'm in the home office and yes, the nails are gel nails from the nail salon.
