Why choose to be faceless?
I've just been pondering this.
Why do men (and some woman on here) choose to have faceless profiles? If these people care so much for the T community why not be open about their 'sexuality' or whatever you would like to label it? Whilst people hide behind closed doors no change is being made to the T community to brake down any stigmatism. If you were to be open about it you would clearly see that not that many people care; if they do, you should sack them off, they're clearly not worth knowing for being small minded bigots. Jus' my two cents worth for today, it was nice to theorise something which wasn't criminology. Alex |

Anyhow, in reply to the question, it's down to choice. There arent many ways in which to stay anonymous in this world any more. Furthermore, a face on a profile page isnt going to make a difference to my mind. Words speak stronger. |

While I celebrate the fact that you have posted your face, I let my words suffice. Meanwhile, I get to choose the very substantial ways in which I play a role at my employer and in my city to help overcome discrimination against trans people.

Why be faceless?
I guess for most it's safer and in there best intrest to remain unseen
which is sad as this is 2011 not 1955 But sadly there are those who believe that beating up a cross dresser or a Tgirl is there God given right and also it's there God given right to beatup anyone who likes or heaven forbid actualy date one of us So a lot hide in the closet affraid of there seceret coming out Jerseygirl Jen |

I WISH I could say that all the narrow minded biggots and bashers and such do not matter to me, I WISH that I could say that nobody close to me is so narrow-minded as to hate me because I like this website, but these are only my wishes. The facts are that there are still a LOT of narrow-minded and hate filled people in this world who have a lot of influence and sway over my life. I HOPE that you are not harmed by posting your face here, I really hope that nobody holds you activity here against you. But I wonder if perhaps you have taken a very grave risk in posting your face here... If the dean of the college or university you attend saw this here... are you absolutely CERTAIN they would not take action against you? What about some future employers? You say you wish to get work in "youth offenders" or "youth justice," seriously and sincerely I do HOPE you are successful in your career but tell me, do you think all of your possible future employers would not be alarmed if they knew you posted and read stuff here? *I am assuming that you are a real person and that is your real picture.

the dark side
Quote:
For this same reason they use a "handle" instead of their real name. ( like Aust 1 n ) A lot of guys I've chatted with suddenly have to leave. Their wife entered the room. So I guess the theory is that T-porn is still considered a "dark side" that most don't want to be identified with. ( excuse me for ending a sentence with a preposition. I could end it with a proposition.) Last edited by franalexes; 11-10-2011 at 07:23 PM. |

I've worked as a photographer for a good portion of my life; commercial gigs, weddings, fashion, etc. The last 10 or 12 years, I've been 'retired' from the commercial side and have concentrated on doing 'fine-art' photography. A big part of that has been working with the nude figure, almost all GG (that's what galleries and collectors are after) but a few male nudes from time to time.
Many of my models choose to be anonymous, and they do so for a variety of reasons. Mostly, it's for job security. We live in a land (the US) where nude = sex = very bad. It's getting better, but we've a looong way to go. Some of the pro models I've worked with may have clauses in other contracts (a clothing line they rep as an example) that say 'no nude work - or you and this six-figure deal are done.' Others just simply don't want the hassle of being judged by others for what is a very personal decision. Why remain faceless here? The same reasons, ad nauseum. Mostly though, it's because many don't want to be 'outed' such as it is. That's pretty much why I'm faceless - and yes, that is me in my av. I'm just not ready for the world to know. That said, the people that matter in my life already know.

My avatar pic is not what I look like.
They were stolen off the net. (The pic is actually a Latvian newsreader) But then again, I only did this after Auts1n stole my photo and used it both as his avatar ....and on his security pass at the university. I don't mind except he makes me write all his course essays. Aust1n's real name is Catherine. Here is a pic taken last week during a mid-term course practical exam!

Most people are missing the point. It's about more than just putting your face on here, but taking it into the outside world.
Most men I find on websites like these just want to fuck TS woman, and don't treat them like real people (sex tourists are a big example). Why can't a TS woman be treated like a person who can be a friend or lover, not just somebody who you can fuck? |
