A Visit To "TG Gallery" (Debbie's Den)....
A few years ago, when I first started surfing the net on the subject of "Transvestites", the only term I knew until then, all of what I found were of a pornographic nature, the "chicks with dicks" type of sites. Believe me, I crawled so far back into hiding that I didn't want anyone thinking that is what I was about. I didn't even like the word "Transvestite", it sounded too clinical.
Somehow, I stumbled into TG Gallery (Debbie's Den) one evening, and started reading all the posts and looking at the pictures shown there. I had never heard the word "Transgendered" before, and had to go back to the home page and visit more of the site to see exactly what the room was about. I was stunned to say the least to see that the posts were from crossdressers, transgendered and transexual people, and that none of the content was in any way pornographic. These were real people, chatting to other real people, and about nothing to do with sex!! And I didn't have to visit with my credit card<LOL>
I felt a tremendous relief after visiting the chat room. Questions I have had about myself and why I liked to dress in women's clothing were being answered right before my eyes. It was very reassuring to know that what I had been doing is so common and that I was not alone. I started visiting the chat room often and began visiting the web sites that are linked there. I became driven to learn more about what it was and why it was the I had been dressing for so many years.
I started to realize that what I had been going through all my life was not some wild fantasy, but a real part of my being. These girls in the room were just that, real people being real people!! Not actors portraying a fantasy image for a dollar like I had found so many other places on the net. After a short while, I decided I had been keeping to myself for too long and it was time to open up to someone. It was time to Reach Out. Continue??
