Some of us don't have the luxury of outting ourselves right now. I do as much as I can with my Yahoo avatar and all, but I just can't risk taking pictures, especially of my face, at the moment. Given that so many others have been in this position as well, why is it so hard to understand?

Yes there is a bias.
Why?
Well its about commitment.
Every single one of us does have the luxury of outting ourselves right now.
We all face the same sacrifices & loss of "Male privilege"

Julia Serano, a transsexual woman who's awesome book, Whipping Girl Transsexual Scapegoating of Femininity goes into this.

Those who walk the walk {& usually sacrificed everything to do so} don't like being put in the same genra as part-timers, or weekend warriors.
I personally see why that view prevails,
Though its a bit "up your own arse"
Let me elaborate:
On another Trans forum, one of my best friends, Evil Helen {After a year calling her that, she now uses it as her handle!} quoted the number of members of the site:

I'm sure this has been done before but just in case or for those of us that missed it.
I've seen girls call themselves TS in their profiles yet it's clear they are a married TV looking for kicks with no intention of living full-time let alone any medication, help or operations ever intended on their future horizon.
So what's that all about? Just trying to confuse the Admirers, bit of a joke, bigging up their self image or?

I represent myself this week {It changes a lot!} as a panty wearer doing it in secret, behind my imaginary wife's back,
...along with tasteful photos of my legs & some knickers lying on the ground...well artistic.
I went into the chat room for girls only {remember this is a tg site, mainly for cd's / tv's} And they all shouted at me ....saying "no men!"
All fucking barking.
Am I the only sane one on the net? Quack! ....
