  1. If I understand you correctly... Your profile(s) on this and other sites are not under your control because someone else has the passwords? If you have the passwords you could delete profiles yourself. If not, you have to contact the webmaster(s) involved and ask them to do this for you. If that doesn't work, just ignore the old profiles and create new ones. If you cannot fix what is really online identity theft then all you can do is create a new identity.
  2. Several good ideas above but one small thing I miss in this forum is having a "Like" button. Sometimes I just want to agree with someone without going into detail...
  3. Not so sure about this! I paid an actor lots of money to pose for my pic!
  4. And that is a small but very useful improvement!
  5. I will take anything to do with wolves quite seriously, thanks! Especially when they pop up in eschatological discussions! One Fenris wolf is enough, I think. "High foretells that as part of the events of Ragnarök, after Fenrir's son Sköll has swallowed the sun and his other son Hati Hróðvitnisson has swallowed the moon, the stars will disappear from the sky. The earth will shake violently, trees will be uprooted, mountains will fall, and all binds will snap – Fenrisúlfr will be free. Fenrisúlfr will go forth with his mouth opened wide, his upper jaw touching the sky and his lower jaw the earth, and flames will burn from his eyes and nostrils. Later, Fenrisúlfr will arrive at the field Vígríðr with his brother Jörmungandr. With the forces assembled there, an immense battle will take place. During this, Odin will ride to fight Fenrisúlfr. During the battle, Fenrisúlfr will eventually swallow Odin, killing him."
  6. Agree! Nice to see an intelligent topic that is removed from the usual debates we repetitively indulge in! I would say more but I'm too busy right now building an ark and a concrete bunker.
  7. Point taken! One should never argue a universal from a limited number of cases but, within my own experience of upmarket sex workers, I can number one who is HIV+ (from work), several who have substance abuse problems and one who is already dead from that. So much for it being a "victimless crime"! Possibly? Then there are the horrific stories of desperate, under-privileged girls - ESPECIALLY TG - who are conned into it with false promises, then used, abused and damaged by it. Still, I would note that it is not the fault of the workers or the work itself - it is the context of an uncaring society, greedy "owners" and selfish clients that largely causes these situations. It is a high-risk line of work. IMHO, all the more reason to treat such workers with respect, compassion and empathy. I would say that, if we lose that, we have lost our humanity.
  8. It's never a good idea to get in the middle of a debate but I guess today is just one of those days for me! Regarding the discussion between Jolie and Gorgeous, I can see reason and truth on BOTH sides. Jolie is rightly proud - and candidly so - about her work, the rewards it brings and her reason for choosing it as a career. Equally, Gorgeous is proud of her achievements without ever having worked in the sex industry. My take is that this is an ongoing debate in the TG community - where a VERY large number of people have worked in the sex industry at some stage - and will continue to be so as long as we live in a society where TG are marginalised. In a saner world that we have not yet established, I would hope that these discussions would no longer be necessary. My vote is that sex workers should be respected and appreciated just as much as mainstream workers - including the suffering "99%" who work all day pretty much every day just to pay their bills and make no progress in their lives. I am one such! So, yes, I could take a negative view of Jolie's apparently somewhat "superior" attitude, except that I see she is making a valid point about her own choices. Gorgeous is also making a valid point about her choices. A great line from the movie Solaris is that "there are no answers, only choices" (the US version, not the old USSR version). Another great line from Tolkien is "go not to the Elves for counsel, for they will say both no and yes"! So I cannot help but see it from both sides!
  9. Of course! It's a general question for the whole community...
  10. When did you first become aware of transgendered people? What makes you interested in them? Just out of interest, here this thread is on the topic of: when did you first become aware of transgendered people and what made you interested in them? It is aimed mainly at admirers and partners, as well as clients of professional escorts, but it might be interesting if any of the girls would like to add their own stories? And it definitely includes all transgendered people, even though there are hardly any – if any – F2M on this site. Without being pedantic, I’m using the word “transgendered” in the widest sense: CD, TV, pre-op, post-op etc. So does anyone want to share their story? At the same time, I’m posting a poll on the (possibly) provocative topic of: how do you regard transgendered people? On the poll, the options are as varied as I could imagine in an attempt to cover all possibilities. They do not represent my own opinions, being just a list of as many possible reasons as I can think of!
  11. Novelty: covers the primary interest being with someone who is “different” or a “different” sexual experience. Fetish: covers the primary interest being alternative sexuality. Lover or companion: covers the primary interest being LTR in some form. As people: covers seeing TS as other people who are no more or no less interesting than all the others. As special women: covers the primary interest being their femininity or female qualities. As professional escorts: covers the basic practical interest on a business-first basis. As exotic creatures: covers a fascination with how “different” TS are in some personal viewpoint or other. As third-sex individuals: covers the viewpoint that there are more than just two genders and associated variations of sexual orientation. As born females or males are not available: covers those who look for TS as a substitute for other options. As an admirer who would like to be TS/TG also: covers admirers who have transgendered urges of their own – whether enacted or not – and feel comfortable in TS company for that reason. [/b]
  12. tsgorgeous just said it all! Word! And I think ADMIN should add a Like button for the forum comments.
  13. I was VERY pleased to see Tom Selleck is also a member here - and he is even older than me! Also glad to see he has moved to Italy - much better than California!
  14. Let's get real, Sherazaad! Worshipping Princess Sherazaad is probably all we need?
