  • pictures – will I be recognised?

    Posted by June on 18/11/2008 at 5:55 am

    I used to Kelly but not any more, I am happy that I am unlikely to be recognized and even if I am, feel that I couldn’t really care. If they are on this website then chances are they are either CDs themselves or trolling for one (yuk)>

    I would suggest if you are worried about being recognised you can set your profile to private. That way only TR members can see you.

    This is the internet, if your profile is public, ANYONE can see it. If you have the opinion that only TG people go to these sites think again. I once had that opinion and had my pics here as well as other places. Well I was wrong and I did get sprung big time.

    So set your profile to private and you will be pretty safe if you want to post your photo’s.

    Great advice Anthea. My profile is now private too.
    If anyone sees and recognizes me in here it’s a fairly safe bet theres a skirt in their wardrobe too 😆

    Hi girls,

    Actually never thought of that going private, is good advice.

    I must get it done and be safe from the outside world !

    Thank you ladies,
    Melanie

    Some of it, of course, depends on how different your male and female looks are. When I showed my mum a picture of myself as Rachel she admitted that she wouldn’t have recognised me. And a work colleague who saw a photo of Rachel, without knowing I was a crossdresser, actually didn’t recognise me at all, even though I was stood next to her at the time.

    i want to put some nice pics on my profile . show my hole face instead of side on ones. but im worried i will get recongized. last thing i want is to put my family in a embrasseing situation. am i being a bit paronoid? dose anyone feel the same. or is it just me.

    I think that we all start off feeling like that.

    It really depends how different your female appearance is to your male appearance. As you get more adept to makeup, you become more passable and less like your male appearance.

    From personal experience, even people you’ve spoken to face to face several times will not recognise you when you change genders, even if they start off knowing you in female mode and know that you’re a CD! I often have difficulty believing this myself but it has happened to me time and again.
