As for mom, feel her up. I mean, bring up the topic of transgendered people with her just in a general, passing conversation and casually ask her thoughts on it. Mostly, you really don't even HAVE to ask, I'm pretty sure that once you get her talking about it she'll just lay it all out in front of you, especially if you take a pro view of it (at LEAST SLIGHTLY pro) to her possible con view. Spot an article in a book, newspaper or movie/t.v. show about it and just bring it up in conversation at dinner and see what her reaction to it is. "Oh! Look! Chastity Bono had a sex change! That's cool! I hope he'll be happy with his new life." Sit down and watch, "The World According To Garp", with her, or, "To Wong Foo, Love Julie Newmar", and when the TS/crossdressing bits come to the fore, maybe she'll say something about how she feels about it.
As for the other stuff, sounds kinda like you DON'T care what others think, but you aren't really committed to that just yet. Keep working on it! It IS a great relief once you break through your own barrier!
I WAS going to say that joggers shave `em, and you could use that as an excuse, but that's already been said. Great minds think alike!
Not sure about what to do about the job thing, other than, like it was also said, work for yourself.
Good luck with that! I hope everything works out well for you!! :-)
