Do you regret posting ANY pictures of yourself "enfemme" knowing that they could end up in some persons private collection for whatever enjoyment they may find in having them?

[Brandi Wyne]

Well, let's see. We get all dressed and made up to be someone other than who we are known to be by most folks. We take on other names and identities to use for this. Hmmm. So, no I don't have a problem with the pics posted here. Now, there may be other pics somewhere else that could pose a problem other than what my coming out as Brandi could cause.:tongueout

NEFAH! So long as they don't feel the need to share a detailed description of how/when/where they enjoyed my photos, I personally really couldn't care less. I suppose, in a weird perverse way it could be considered flattering?

[Barbara Dugan]

No I dont regret it:heehee:

[Bree-asaurus]

NEFAH! So long as they don't feel the need to share a detailed description of how/when/where they enjoyed my photos, I personally really couldn't care less. I suppose, in a weird perverse way it could be considered flattering?

I second that

[Teri Jean]

Nope

Teri

[Spacey]

The only thing that concerns me is identity theft.

[Joni Marie Cruz]

Good grief.

[Deborah Jane]

No regrets...I was probably :drink: when I posted em, so I woudn't remember them anyway

[Mistybtm]

big nope !! :brolleyes:

[sherri52]

If someone is admiring my photo I feel bad for them. If they ask I'll send another couple dozen thier way.

[Tanya83]

We're all exhibitionists darling. :battingeyelashes:

[Wen4cd]

Nor I

[Princess Ludwyna]

No i don't mind. If someone finds me attractive, well i should be proud of that. :heehee:
My only fear would be that someone around my area recognise me. This would be embarrassing... :Angry3:

[Engendered]

There are plenty of photos that I hope never see the light of day again for simple embarrassment reasons. (We all take crazy pics when we're young..or not so young) :)
As for the other thing, as long as they're not using the photographs to publically degrade me or do anything in a mean way, they can do what they like!

[Staci G]

:lol: Why on earth would anyone take a picture of me and use it in any way other than to ugly up a pig, I don't worry about it at all if it got out then I guess I might have to explain things but that would be a good way to come out I guess. If my wife got hold of them the worse thing she could do is divorce me. They can kill me but they cant eat me, cannibalism is against the law

[Kaz]

Hmmm... had to think about this! Anything to avoid assessing 70 assignments! :)

Have I looked at pictures of us girls (and more importantly are some in my private collection) for my own enjoyment? And of course vice versa..

Q1) Would I expect others to have pics of me? Well, I'd be flattered! Probably for whatever reason, even if it were to throw darts at CDs! I am happy to represent us!

Q2) What would happen if any pics of me on this site got out to the big bad world? This has been covered above.. If I was recognised... it could present challenges... but that is a fact of life we all need to consider on a day to day basis, so no deal...

Q3) What could happen if a hard drive of mine (or I got hacked) with pics of other girls got into other hands? Well, it would label me as interested in CDs, so I'd be "out" - but any harm to others? Not from me as I don't keep any personal details on anyone...

But it does raise an issue that I hadn't really considered...

Some of us make excuses at going out in public... I live in the UK so you can almost guarantee I will have been CC TV'd on almost every occasion - even when no-one else was around.

But it does make one think a bit, and it is a good question to pose!

So... to everyone out there who has a pic of me - hi! :love:

[WandaRae2009]

Ask the Mayor of East Cleveland. Crossdressing pictures were released a couple of week before an election. Not to say he didn't get re-elected.

[StaceyJane]

I once just about busted out laughing when someone online told me how hot my pic looked.

[Kitty Sue]

Mixed feelings, but not so mixed that I will not post pics. :)

[Ruth]

I don't seriously believe anybody would save a picture of me to drool over (or whatever), but it would not affect me if they did.
Kaz's point about CCTV is a good one. There should be hours of video of me wandering around shopping malls, but none of it has made it onto YouTube. Could it be.. gasp.. that the tapes just get taped over every day...?

[lisaB]

I have not got a problem with people doing as they see fit with my picures, in fact I know of one person who has used my photos as their own to create a profile on a website catering for tv/ts/tg. How should I have felt? Initially annoyed I guess, but also flattered to be deemed worthy enough!!

It is of no consequence to me, I dress and take photos to capture "lisa" in her element, foremost for my own pleasure. Who does n't like seeing themself dressed ?

Whatever happens with the photos, happens, they are only images, it is not as if they are defiling me if that makes any sense?

Just my twopenneth worth, you did ask xx:)

[Nigella]

Kaz's comment on CCTV is a very valid one, in fact the UK is the most "watched" country in the world via CCTV.

Looks like most do not mind what happens once they have posted their pics.

[jill_cd_girl]

No, I don't. I've had someone take my pic and pretend that it was a pic of them. (I ended up getting random IMs and emails saying things like "You said you were going to meet me in Columbus, OH but you never showed". I was like "Huh? I'm in California and I've never been to OH!"

That was irritating but other than that, not at all

[MsJanessa]

No I don't regret it and if someone get "excited" just looking at one of My photos---well I suppose I would feel complimented

[niktesla]

My question would be..... what prompted the asking of this question? My comment -would be....once you post to this medium - the WWW World Wide Web - there is not a thing you can do about what happens to it or how it gets used. My answer would be...I have not posted, nor are there any pictures of me in "enfemme" form. Thanks

[RhondaLynn]

If i were concerned about anything like that, i wouldn't have posted them. In fact, it's kind of nice to think that someone may find some type of enjoyment in Rhonda's photos. Not that i've posted that many (yet...), but if you know of anyone who's interested...

On the other hand, if they happened to show up in a banner ad for some porn site, or as freebie downloads on some TGP site, well, uhh... were they good photos??? That's why one should never post sub-quality photos of themselves (or their alternate gender identies). You never know where they may end up, and you want to ensure that whoever ends up with them will enjoy them.

[Shelly67]

Nigella , may I ask you the same question in return - do you have any regrets ?

[Magickman]

When I am dressed out in public, (man in a skirt and heels mode) People often have asked to take my picture. I always let them do so.

[Loni]

just what i need...another reason to be camera shy.:doh:


.

[Lorileah]

Never regret anything that made you smile.

If I didn't want it seen, I wouldn't have uploaded it. If I didn't expect that someday someone would see it whom I knew, I wouldn't have uploaded it. I also fully expect that somewhere on the internet is someone who is using my pictures and claiming that they are theirs or that they are someone they know and whom they took the photos.

[Frédérique]

Do you regret posting ANY pictures of yourself "enfemme" knowing that they could end up in some persons private collection for whatever enjoyment they may find in having them?

I admit I have a private collection of crossdressing images, but they are not gleaned from this site. I wouldn’t mind having a picture of Freddy in someone’s collection, but it helps to be a complete nobody, doesn’t it? I don’t look much at the images here, unless I’m invited to by a friend. I’m old-fashioned and a bit shy about such private pictures. For this reason I post visually with extreme caution…:o

[eluuzion]

Ruminating about past decisions and actions is like trying to "back out of an automobile accident". It is impossible to change the past. But we can change our tomorrows.

I spend all of my time focusing on what I am going to do next.

You can change your whole outlook on life by changing two words... Instead of thinking "if only" try thinking "next time".

That's just me...my life is full of stepping off the ledge...I am still alive.

[kimdl93]

not really - I doubt I'll have any such affect on anyone

[Nigella]

Nigella , may I ask you the same question in return - do you have any regrets ?

In a word NO.

I generally don't have my photo taken, just don't like the look. But for those that have been posted to the web, I dont worry about who sees them or what they do with them, they have all been the type which I wouldn't mind my family seeing.

I have always had a thought in my mind which goes:

Never regret anything you do, only what you don't :love:

[danacd96]

not really:)

[Angelofsomekind]

As long as they don't use the pictures saying it's them, I don't really care, and like someone mentioned earlier, I don't want to know what they were doing with them. I generally keep my pictures decent as well. The only ones that aren't are ones I took for the wife, no one else will see those.

[SuzanneBender]

Darn there goes my run for the Senate! Ohh well, what the hey, I am sure I would get and even better paying gig as the Transgender analyst on Fox News. "Now to Suzanne to explain why there was a 30%-70% split among Transgendered voters in last night's key election in Ohio." At the very least a controversy like that will get you an appearance on Dancing with the Stars. :daydreaming::lol2:

Anyone that posts a pic has to expect it to get out. Are there a few out there I would like to go away and never be seen again. You bet ya, but I was a young girl and never expected to compete for Miss America when they were taken. Thats my story and I am sticking to it.

[Shelly67]

In a word NO.

Ah ...... the great Stan laurel once said - " You can lead a horse to water but a pencil must be lead " .

[JulieK1980]

Doesn't bother me.

[NicoleScott]

No regrets (so far anyway). I'd be flattered if someone enjoyed viewing my pics.

[Brooke Smith]

..

Do you regret posting ANY pictures of yourself "enfemme" knowing that they could end up in some persons private collection for whatever enjoyment they may find in having them?


Enjoyment or any number of others reasons I could think of.



....once you post to this medium - the WWW World Wide Web - there is not a thing you can do about what happens to it or how it gets used. My answer would be...I have not posted, nor are there any pictures of me in "enfemme" form. Thanks


Exactly why you haven't seen my lovely face either.

[victoriamwilliams1]

I have no regrets about my postings, I think if people are collectors of our photos as many are it is up to them what they do with the images. It is like a model who photos are seen for decades.

[BrendaAlexandra]

If my pictures ended up in someone's collection for whatever purpose I'd be flattered.

[Rachel Morley]

"......for whatever enjoyment they may find in having them" .. are you kidding me? Of course not. I'd be flattered :D

[erickka]

Just my :2c: on this.... We are all adults, and know what can happen on the internet. It isn't called the "www" for nothing. We all take that chance as soon as we post anything, so it is at our own risk and discretion.

[NathalieX66]

To answer the original question, Nope.
I'm just never satisfied with my pictures, and am always trying to improve.

From a crossdresser perspective, we take pictures to immortalize ourselves when we can't be dressed as women 24/7/365. :battingeyelashes:

[Kate Simmons]

Hell no. In fact I count on it Nigella.:battingeyelashes::)

[Mary Jane]

No regrets at all.

[erika130]

NEFAH! So long as they don't feel the need to share a detailed description of how/when/where they enjoyed my photos, I personally really couldn't care less. I suppose, in a weird perverse way it could be considered flattering?

The only thing that concerns me is identity theft.

I second that, and that. :2c:

[Laura_Stephens]

I have never posted pictures of myself anywhere. If I did, only Helen Keller or Stevie Wonder would find them attractive.

[charlie]

I spend lots of time getting dressed, applying makeup, choosing the right outfit and even getting the belt and purse to match. If someone on the street says I look great I'm happy and feel complimented. If someone finds my picture here and feels the same way.....I'm happy and complimented as long as the picture is not printed and distributed for negative reasons.

[msginaadoll]

Well i would worry what kind of sick twisted person would want to collect one of my pics. Well you never know with bad taste!

[josie_S]

I second that, and that. :2c:

I third that, and that.

[tamarav]

If looking at my pictures arouses someone to the point that they ahve fun while looking, then I feel I have done a good job...

[Genifer Teal]

So, I'm at a party in Danbury CT at a gay bar. Some guy walks up to me and says he has a picture of me hanging on the wall at his house. ??? He proceeded to explain. About 2 years back I was at an out door concert in Brooklyn NY, where he was with his very straight brother. He asked and took a photo of the two of us together. He liked it so much it, he framed it and hung it on the wall at home. :daydreaming: It is great to know beauty IS still appreciated. I thought that is a cool story.

Gen

[Kristy_K]

no regrets here

[Danielle76]

I would definitely be concerned about it if my face was included, as I have NO desire to be personally recognized by anyone as a CD. However, the thought of someone, male or female getting turned on my pics of me dressed up? I'll admit, that would turn me on a bit.

[janet p]

If anyone gets turned on by the few pictures I've post I'd be worried about their taste but other than that WHAT EVER FLOATS YOUR BOAT.:heehee::tongueout:love:

[Daintre]

I have no regrets although I have only uploaded a few pictures. What anyone wants to do with them, say use them in dart boards, go for it.

[jennCD]

I wouldn't mind, tho I don't appreciate having them reposted them elsewhere online (as I have seen happen to other members of this board) for an audience that they were not initially intended for... once it's out there, it's really out there.

[LisaAlexander]

Nop not at all, if anyone does.. please do tell :daydreaming:

But yeah, I wouldn't want to suddenly see my picture on www.kindasexycds.com :p

[Billijo49504]

Check out my profile picture. The only use would be as a target, to prepare for a zombie attack....:tongueout...BJ
ps LisaAlexander your link didn't work

[LisaAlexander]

hehe, maybe its because I made it up :o I was just trying to be kindaclever :straightface:

[Loni]

i am camera shy to start with...

any one out there if they got ahold of a photo of me...well lets just say it would be in there best intrest to keep it under wraps.:eek:


my photos are for MY intrests. nobodys eles.

.

[Hali]

No regrets for now baby. No one/nothing come close to addressing/solving my CD/TG issues like the internet through posting photos and getting approval and validating my thots that am not insane/freak but just different. Coming to forums like this (crossdressers.com) and flickr have been one of the happiest times of my life not only am happier now but am more confident or even over confident...........some how i have become unstoppable in terms of my personal discovery both my femme and guy level.

[Paula Siemen]

You might do a "Vanity Search" of your female name on Google or whatever network you use. I have and I have found several of my postings from this group, with my avatar pic on the listing. As, so far as I know, no one I'm concerned about knows my fem name, and I feel my fem appearance pretty well disguises my male appearance, I'm not to worried about this. However, being unemployed for eleven months and in the search for a job, I am somewhat concerned if some HR person could somehow make the cross connection and it spoil an employment opportunity.
