Krisi,
For someone who just calls it a hobby , you appear to be a little confused to me.
Krisi,
For someone who just calls it a hobby , you appear to be a little confused to me.
I appreciate all the nice compliments on this thread and on my photos. It was a private message and some extremely negative comments on someone else's thread that made me pretty angry. This forum seems to be getting pretty nasty lately.
Maybe I'll put the photos back up, maybe I won't. I don't trust a few people here.

Teresa, I am not confused at all and I don't understand what would make you think that. My "hobby" is dressing like a woman and sometimes going out in public as a woman. It's like play acting. I don't think I am a woman in a man's body, I don't want to live as a woman and I don't want to transition.
Many other crossdressers go out in public from time to time.
BTW: This is not my only hobby, I have others. Past and present.
Dont let other people take your own positive experiences away!Krisi: It was a private message and some extremely negative comments on someone else's thread that made me pretty angry.
There are a few here who thrive on always finding the negative in every thread. It is quite predictable that if anything can be read in a negative way, one or more of the "Angry Birds" will find it and exploit it.Krisi: This forum seems to be getting pretty nasty lately.
I dont see this changing anytime soon unfortunately so there is no point in even trying.
Most people here, including the Angry Birds, have some positive things to offer now and then, so the best we can do is to put a filter on it all and just try to not let the negative things get to us too much.
You dont have to, just dont give them anything to exploit. You are very good at seeing potential risk in this forum you are good at helping others to look after themselves when they take unnecessary risk. The pictures you showed a few days ago did not present any more risk than you are already accepting by being on this forum.Krisi: I don't trust a few people here.
People here want to know you, we want to have a personal relationship with you, we want to be a part of your world. That is a lot easier to accomplish when there is a face to go with the name! Dont let a few people take that away!
I really hope you do!Krisi: Maybe I'll put the photos back up, maybe I won't.
Hugs
Suzie
Hearing of your experience makes me sad. There was no call for that, is no call for some of the unkind comments that seem to be increasing of late.
For me, Krisi, I stand by what I said above. "Normal" looked great on you, as I suspect would many other "looks". See to your own happiness, of course, but know that some of us thought you looked great in those pictures.
Hugs,
Kelly
I would love to see the pics Krisi I am sad I missed them.
first let me say that i did not PM krisi, but....just an observation....
one of the angry birds i suppose, the quotes above were taken from a thread where you used some insulting words about a 350lb person and it was closed, unfortunately it was an interesting discussion. requests were made and it was reopened,
reality, this term is used ad nauseam, so ive noticed that you routinely use it and the terms "friends and others". " Most people feel" just before you lob some salacious or derogatory or bigoted comment into the conversation, i dont know about others but i come here to get away from that, kinda get my fill of that reality in the "wild" where ordinary folks like to share theyre thoughts on the man in a dress and people will be laughing.....maybe you need new "friends".
"opponent's opinion" this sounds like you come here looking for confrontation, we are not opponents unless you want us to be, ive got your back if you have mine but often i dont find that you do in the words you choose, i come here to learn, share, support, and when i leave i advocate for you, me, and the folks here so that "friends and others" "Most people feel" will look more favorably at all of us....
now i dont know what happened and from what you have shared it hurt you, , they were merely words that someone typed from the safety behind theyre keyboard on the interweb. no closed fists right......so words hurt, lets try to pick the right ones......sorry that happened to you......i saw the pictures....yes the photos were nice.....this is just my observation but i think its fairly accurate......

i dressed like a girl and i liked it! crossdressing...theirs an app for that
Ah, the art of taking statements out of context and making them seem to be what they are not.
It would have been more fair to post what led up to that post.
BTW: It was who posted the nasty things as much as what they posted. One was not even directed to me but it was just asinine.
They should have known better.

"you used some insulting words about a 350lb person "
Nope, I did not. I did not direct my comment to any one person. My comment was that you have to (you should) dress appropriately for your body. It's something women have known all their lives.
My comment was taken as offensive by someone it wasn't directed at. My other post was a complaint about how sensitive some people have gotten lately (in general, not just on this forum) to hearing the truth. It's gotten to the point in some cases where a medical doctor is afraid to tell a parent that his/her child is overweight for fear of insulting them.
This thread was about me going out in public. You have turned it into a personal insult thread. I'm done and the photos are gone. I have to protect myself.
I guess there is no point leaving the thread open then
Listen carefully to what is said, quite often you can hear what is not being said
The joy of correcting a mistake can bring pain to another
