You're so vain, u probably think this thread is about u, don't u!?

After attending yet another big T party Halloween nite, I had this thot.
I've met so many T's with gorgeous faces. Some with incredible figures. A few with both! With many very passable dressers scattered amongst them. :battingeyelashes:

When I first went out to T events and met girls who were stunning, girls that were stars from here, or locally, or on FB, I was shy and probably visibly impressed. Now, many of those same girls r friends. Part of the regular crowds of T's I hang with and chat with at the events that I attend monthly and yearly.:drink:

My point is: Some of them appear to be and act like stars! But, once alone, I can't think of even one I've met that seemed full of herself! When I got to chat with them, most were friendly, open, and as comfy to chat with as an old pal. And, I'm NOT your average T! All seemed mature and confident, and not an inflated ego in the lot!:thumbsup:

If you've been out and met other T's, have u met any primadonnas? Or, some u think nite be online?
Maybe my sampling of T's isn't representative.:straightface:

Sherry,
So far not met one " Primadonna " . I will admit I'm more confident than I thought I would be , but those little niggles are still inside that someone or something could bring it all crashing down . I would say you've met enough across the spectrum to make a fair assumption .

One point I would make was about a conversation with one the hotel staff where we meet, she said she had reservations before our first meeting but she hasn't come across such a nice group of really nice polite, pleasant people, now she looks forward to our meetings .

[Pat]

Awww, Sherry, you're writing about me -- that's sweet. :)

OK, we've never met. But I promise I'm pretty approachable. I've met many who knew exactly how attractive they are, but none who were at all full of themselves over it.

[Alice Torn]

Yes, I have met a vain prima donna. Me!

[Majella St Gerard]

There are prima donnas and drama queens in all groups.

[Jean 103]

Probably not , we have met but I would bet you don't remember , as we didn't talk. I know of one. She is a local girl, model, was a bartender ( not a gay bar but the roughest bar in town , my roommate was one of the bouncers )and she is extremely full of herself. I know of her from my friends. She was invited to a couple of our house party's by my roommate who had worked with her. She never showed I was the hostess. He thought I should meet her. I was a little insulted but didn't tell him. I don't see why I should meet her, she doesn't sound like someone I would be friends with. My friend's don't pull any punches, they will tell you exactly what they are thinking, at least with me. I did see her once. This is the only time I have seen another transgender person in the bar. So I'm playing pool with a good friend Ms O. I'm shooting facing the front door . This girl walks in wearing a skirt. I immediately think I know who this is. I turn to my friend and ask is this her. Ms O says yes, I should go over there and blow a cold wind up her skirt. You would have to know my friend she is a riot, she would do it. This person had walked up to a friend Ms A who had moved to Florida and was back visiting. Ms A is staying with Ms O. I turn to shoot thinking afterward I would walk over and say hi, but when I turned back she was gone. She had to have seen me. You have to walk around the pool table when you come into that bar from the front. But generally i would say that most transgender people i have met are regular people, but not all.

The T world is huge ! There are so many variations..The party's and conventions as mentioned by the OP are fun times. But many of the party players go back to male presenting when it is over. The full time Transpeople are most often struggling to make their way,unless they are retired or luckily wealthy. But,the reality is that most transpeople are struggling for necessary acceptance in their world and are living hand to mouth. Discrimination is a bitch. So,it is difficult to paint all with the same brush as someone struggling to get by has a different attitude than someone at the top of the heap.

[Sometimes Steffi]

No, I haven't met any primadonnas. However, I've met plenty of TG Girl way more beautiful than any GG I've ever gone out with.

[Robertacd]

I don't know, in some ways isn't crossdressing just another form of vanity?

[docrobbysherry]

Yes, I agree, Roberta.
However, I've been surprised that those that looked the best seemed so down to earth if I had the chance to meet them and talk. :)

[Robertacd]

Probably because they are comfortable with themselves.

It's easy to confuse someone with social anxiety as being aloof, uppity, or stuck up.

[Ressie]

Yes Roberta. I was very shy when I was younger which was seen by others as being stuck up sometimes.
