Secret sign

[Angela d'Evial]

Would it not be great if there was a kind of recognition of a CD within its own community ?
I mean a kind of sign, ring, necklace, earing of something that you can see if someone is CD and wear it only if you trying out someone that you suspect.
You see that in some communities like gays, goths, anti a-bom(peace lovers),
and ... you got the picture.
That could improve for example a relation between friends, father-son, man-son in law, ......
If the sign is not known in the "normal world" there wil not be a reaction, otherwise it could lead to a supportive relation.
Please think with me. ( I think my 30 year old macho son is struggling )

We'll paint one thumbnail black.Normal guy's will think we hit it with a hammer and cders will know who we are.I'm joking of course but have often wish we did have a secret sign but how to make it public without the whole world knowing is the challenge. justabit

Sorry Kieron Andrew , I meant very specifically the crossdressing sign.
The ones that love to be a "normal person" with a partner but don't want to embarras a friend or others by asking if the person is a crosdresser.

You would have to define "crossdressing" first to exclude the non-CDers among TG folks.
After that, you would have to control whether the customer falls within your definition, and is allowed to wear the sign. You could look for Tri-Ess, the are for the "normal" heterosexual, married crossdressers.
If a sign becomes popular it will become known by the rest of the world too.

Great idea. I am just thinking what we could use and not give ourselves away to the non-cds.
What a about a necklace with a small ornament in the shape of a television that signals TV. Maybe not.

I like that!

I was thinking maybe something to do with a compact disc, but your idea is better.

[Angela d'Evial]

It's really going in the right direction , I like the Compact Disk too.

No your idea is better

I always thought that my wearing a skirt or a dress out in public was sign enough but appearently not.. Lol.

How about one of those cute symbols that the Jaffa wear on their forehead in SG-1? Only in pink!! !! JAFFA..!!!!! There Sweety!! Lol

I've always been partial to a secret decoder ring or something... That would flash pink when ever anothe crossdresser was within 100 feet......

Pink CD players?? Playing "Dude Looks Like a Lady??

LED jewelry that would blink "I'm a crossdresser" in Moores code??

Sandwich board?

Wait!!! How about left eyebrow plucked your a crossdresser, right eyebrow plucked your your TS... Both eyebrows plucked your post op (or a woman)...... No plucking your a guy.... No eyebrows.... Never mind....

I know what you mean by a secret sign, well maybe not exactly what you mean since there seems to be some confusion, anyway I've thought the same thing before. I was at a store one evening and saw who, I was sure was a TG, a woman looking at a rack of skirts. I wanted to approach her and talk but wasn't sure if it was the right thing to do. What was I going to say, "Hi, are you transgendered?" So I asked here and on another site and was told not to approach because I may have been wrong or if I was right most do not want to be identified or spotted or revealed, they just want to blend. For those who are not dressed at the time but you think they might be TG then that person will wonder what it is about them that gave it away and will try not to make that mistake again since they're trying to blend in with the rest of society.

What do or did secret societies use to identify themselves. Code words maybe. "Hi, does 'Spectrum' mean anything to you?" "Yes, it does! What does it mean to you?" "It means 'TG' to me." And then you both have identified yourselves to each other. If the answer was "No." Then you apologize and walk away.

Just a thought that can be expanded.

no, YOUR idea is better!

okay, fine, how about a compromise: television symbols made from old compact discs.

[Kate Simmons]

Honestly the best way to know who are CDers and who are not is to widen out our friendships in the community. A number of us have met and communicate through this site, privately and TG Org meetings and get togethers.I feel that is the best way to get to know one another.

[Toyah]

Errrrrr no because it would not stay secret and thus expose everyone who wishes to be secret about being a CD

[Frankie-Dear]

Maybe a small pink and baby blue button that reads, "Life's a DRAG."

Toyah , I ment to use for a kind of chalenging somebody to react on it. For example , you have a friend and you noticed the smooth legs but you don't dare to ask him. When you meet him you wear the "sign " and wait for reaction.

Like a masonic handshake that would be quite good fun

I felt like doodling and so I came up with these.
Nothing spectacular, but hope you all like them.

Those designs kick ass, Joann!

A fish such as a Sword Tail as they can change gender.

This made me giggle

A fish such as a Sword Tail as they can change gender. We could also us an octopus or chameleon as they can both change their colors. I think an octopus would be cute.
