Just ONE of the reasons for starting this thread.
True or False??? VVV
It would be very easy for any GG to come to this site and easily get the impression that if a fella she is dating has mentioned anything CD related, she will eventually have to deal with HIM wanting to do it publicly with or W/O her.
In my mind [and the now closed thread just adds fuel to the fire] there is a huge difference between keeping it stricly at home and displaying one's "girly side" to the world and having to deal with all the repercussions of a non accepting Society even though her thread was labeled with the B word and that was the apparent "angle" of it.
CDing IS at least a partly visual thing for ALL CDers of every stripe and most likely the ONLY factor for the vast majority of CDers {MEN} who probably only dress for 5 or 10 minutes at a time before deciding "maybe that's enough dressing for today". The numbers clearly support the ones in the closet are the majority theme as Reine pointed out.
Of course, the vast majority of people who POST here DO go out dressed, making it appear that most all CDers either want to get out of the closet or will want to eventually if they have not already.
Just because someone plays a musical instrument does not mean that they WILL someday want to play in a group or a marching band in public. Does not mean they don't play a mean guitar, piano or whatever and being able to pass has nothing to do with it for most people perfectly happy staying in their closet.
There is no right or wrong here. Every one of us has reasons for what we like or don't like and for what we will or won't do.
What's good here, is that this site offers support and encouragement for the folks in the closet WANTING to get out.
