A perfect world

[Maddie Knight]

If anybody could wear anything they wanted and it was socialy acepted would this be a better world ?
What i mean is if Rob could wear dresses etc. there would not be a Maddie.
Personaly i don't think Rob wearing dresses would be right. When i Cd i become a different person and all that is going on in my other me's life is not my problem.
I enjoy being girly but on the other hand i also enjoy being manly and i don't think the two should merge.
But i do think a world where we could be anyone and dress anyway we like would be a big improvement.
No I do not suffer from multiple pesonality disorder and nither does the other me.

I'm not schizophrenic, and neither am I ;)

[Ashleigh]

No question about it. There would be a lot less judgementalism.

[AnnaMaria]

Personally I think that I would be more incline to wear womens clothes more often than not. I think it would be a wonderful world. Anna is the nicer part of me. My other half is more like the drill sargent in full metal jacket. Mean, outspoken, rude, uncaring, you know all the bad things in life that make a person a really good criminal.

I do think that eventually this world will get to the point where society as a whole will be able to accept people for who they are no matter what, but it is going to take time and a lot of work on the part of those like us that are willing to show society and continue to show society that we are nothing to be scared of we are just like them and that what we wear can infact help to bring out the parts of us that are hidden due to what they think now.

If all of us could live our lives as who we really are, the world would be a better place. It is a wonderful dream.

Love,

[Wendy me]

we can first step free our minds then the rest of the world in a possitive light
one step at a time

[Georgette]

I think what we and everybody here is asking themselves is if we were accepted would the world be a better place. Damn straight it would be. :)

Yes for many there would be no need for an alternative identity.
For many more the alternative identity is a large part of why they dress. Foe T Girls like myself the clothes are just a part of being a girl.

In short the world would be a whole lot better place if it were not to take a stand based upon tradition and very often what is very short term tradition.

An example of this is men wearing long hair, so many people seem willing and justifiable in condemming men who have long hair. This is based on a tradition that is less than 120 yearso old eityh a large gap in the 60's through to the late 80's. Yet men have had long hair for 1000's of years before the fashion to show a thin layer of wispy hair over a shiny head. An effect that looks a bit like the Mississippi delta.
So tradition fashion even are little to do with it, it is more to do with social conditioning and social ignorance. These are traits that will be very difficult to remove.

My goodness, that would be such a great world. It's nice to be in touch with both sides - male and female. Of course I love to wear what I wear (and you would find me waering at least two female articles of clothing every day - any day) and that doesn't make me a 'bad person', just one who feels good about herself can, at times, dare the world to think differently. Though it is not a 'perfect world' for us when the gender war comes along about this very subject. At least for us on this site, I think, we don't let the imperfect world stop us. :)

annaExcellent post Anna. Your first paragraph in fact describes the difference here between Christine and "Roy". If you only knew me as "Roy", I guarantee you that you would not like me much at all. Christine is everything that "Roy" is not and never, ever could be no matter how much he might try. (not that he ever would want to try either) It took the emergence of Christine to make me who and what I am now as a total person, the complete and more balanced, I feel anyway, individual that I am.

As for society, yes I still believe, or want to hold on to the belief, that this society will eventually "accept" to some degree, who and what we are. Yes, it is going to take more time and there is an awful lot of work to be done yet. Decades of narrow-mindedness, bigotry, and stereotyping are going to have to be overcome for this to happen. It may even come down in the end to the CD/TG/TS community just up and saying "Eff you society...we don't really give a damn what you think about us anymore or whether or not you will "accept" us into your rigid, normality based world.

I hate to contemplate the latter as being the ultimate reality for our mission and cause. But I'm afraid, in the final analysis, that that is the course of action we will ultimately have to undertake to insure that our basic freedoms of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness are protected now and forever more.


Love,
Christine Renee

Christine,
Hasn't this personality had an effect on Roy? Whatever Roy's issues are, why hasn't he adapted some of your traits yet?
I'm just curious, because I find myself becoming more and more just one individual, no matter how I'm dressed.

[racheal]

I agree with Sharon, I am one individual. Dressing is a dialy routine, no matter how you are dressed. :)

manifesto?????????????????girlfreind you need to go shopping ..........it's a cure all

I am much the same,people who know Racquel like her much better than Ray :rolleyes:

[sherri]

Ditto what Sharon said.

[Melissa A.]

My other half is a nice, caring, sensitive guy, in many ways because Melissa exists. He is not outwardly effeminate, but several past gfs and my first wife observed that being with me is like having a nice guy and a best girlfriend all in one- without knowing anything about my cding.


Pretty cool, if you ask me.

Hugs,

Melissa :)

I'm just curious, because I find myself becoming more and more just one individual, no matter how I'm dressed."Roy" has been a creation of mine for most of my life in order to placate society's "need" for normalcy. I wouldn't say that "Roy" hasn't evolved over the years, obviously he has and had to because of how the world has changed and evolved what with women' liberation and men being more caring and sensitive. Any "growth" in "Roy"'s personality or demeanor in that regard is because of me and how I allow him to act in public. The "Roy" of 2005 certainly is nothing like the "Roy" from the 1960's,'70's, and '80's. But once again, "Roy" is a front, a facade. I am the captain of this ship and have been for quite some time. "Roy" exists only to serve me and to fool society until society changes to accept people like us to be who we really are in public.

Hope this helps to clarify the duality. As crispy (or was it tristen?) so aply put it: I'm not schizophrenic...and neither am I.;)

Love,
Christine Renee

I used to change personality when I put on my Mistress Leathers and Boots.

I still dress in fetish, but now I'm just Celeste. sometimes I like to be extra girlie, and wear frillies, sometimes I would just like to wear my dressing gown all day and do nothing.

ad sometimes I like to wear latex or boots and go out and be a sadistic bitch.

but you do have to be flexible and do what is socially acceptable. I'm not in favour of anarchy. Besides if everyone was pushing the boundaries, then we wouldn't be "special"
