please keep the tone positive, no need to lay blame or shame.Also gives them something to discuss after I leave ! lol
although in this section most are closeted id assume, this is a public area of CD.com that all can see even when they have no vested interest about what and why we are here.
quite a lot of thought provoking threads going on about this crossdressing thing we do, i pulled that quote out from one as I have a vested interest in it.
now im out to some so im still half in the closet, i started out here in the MtF section and assumed i was a crossdresser, the other section was transsexual, some cringey debates from a feminist member taught me that i was more. then we had the opportunity for a NB/TG section. i felt comfortable there.
so my point, well some folks go out half dressed and some folks claim they are not towing the line, but they are NB/TG.
some folks claim that the closeted CD folks are sullying the reputation of TG folks in general, me ill defend anyone's right to present here as they stay in the rulez.
so for me when i am out im not a card carrying trans member but i represent us in what i believe is a responsible side, i think the non-binary androgynous folks are a tad braver than i am and more comfortable than most.
transsexuals have to be real 24/7 and deal with the awkward stares daily, all in all day long. something for the time being i can only empathize how hard that can be.
so we are a visual lot (Edit):above so when folks see us in the wild and they get back to theyre home and sit around the dinner table (if anyone does that weird thing my family still does) what do you want the conversation to be.
me i like my sky high heels but out in the wild its not an option. i may share pictures in them here but when outside i dress to blend and hope that those conversations lead to normalcy.
when our closeted folks reveal to loved ones i assume most would do a web search and their are all kinds of things they may type in the search bar and results are all over the place, some are scary, some blatantly false, some erotically provocative, whats a person to think.
but if it does lead them here for the most part the place is PG 13.
some of the conversations can get campy which may lead these folks can get an artificial taste of who we really are.
so when you post things here do you ever worry what the conversation around the table will be.
you found your way here so our loved ones may eventually find it too. would you worry they may find some of your posts distasteful.
me ive been here (wow that long) i could say if they went back far enough some of my original thoughts may be silly. but for the most part i think i represent in a positive light....id say 99% is that way but some times i could do a
