Gender Identification Requirement! Why?

These are just two that I can think of right off and I'm sure there are others in addition to some that have still not come on the site since the gender requirement came into force.

Duh, thanks for pointing that out ila, i never noticed the custom titles were gone.. Have no idea why that happened. Going to restore them shortly

Perhaps I'm just too simple minded. I don't see any problem with this requirement. It doesn't identify who I am exactly or where I live, so my security is maintained, unless I want to disclose that information.

I'm a male, I love T-girls.

I wouldn't be here if I didn't.

Now lets get back to a more enjoyable topic, the one we all love, ways to pleasure all those beeeeautiful t-girls.

For some people there is a problem. I'm not one who has a problem with it, but there are others that have various reasons for not wanting to identify their gender. I think accommodation should be made for those that do not want to identify.

I don't know if it should necessarily be obligatory to tell your gender - on the other hand... we ARE discussing gender-related issues here, so it's nice to know whom you're talking to. And in spite of the fact that this is not per se a dating forum there still is this "kind-of-magic".

In that regard it's really not much different from a dating-forum, where it would seem quite silly not to tell your gender.

But what do I know?

I've never been on a dating forum. Of course I understand the basic principals, but I wonder what you mean by "kind-of-magic". Are you talking about the fun of flirting?

Yep ;-)

But a bit further... If I were in the neighbourhood of quite a few of the Godesses here on this forum (I'm too far away - but), I would for sure try my best to get a date IRL. Because in the end we can only get to know each other THAT much via internet-talk... nothing beats meeting for real!

So yes, of course, any forum where ppl communicate is a potential "dating-forum". So don't keep hiding behind the screen... go for the ladies, baby :-) They may even be pleased that you do!

Peace & love, my man!

Actually, gender ID requirement helps in lots of situations, Like if I wanna show my appreciation to someone, but I don't know what gender do they consider themselves, so I get confused choosing what to say : ROCK ON DUDE, THATS MA BOY, OR OH THANK YOU, YOU ARE A VERY NICE GIRL.So it helps in avoiding awkward situations, and also in avoiding hurting somebody`s feelings, by referring to them in the wrong manner of gender ID.

Bottom line is that I agree with the GID REQ., Still, the subject should remain open for discussion.....

You have a valid point. Perhaps for those that do have problems with it, it should be voluntary.

Still. Lets get back to more important concerns here. Those BEAUTIFUL SHEMALES.
