Reply to "Can We Build a Less Prejudiced TG Sense of Community?"

For so many years I was closeted to the point that I was losing my sanity, I was virtually scared to death to go out in drag. The first time I went out it was to Click and Drag at Fun, and I was a mess, I was so scared I couldn't even hold my drink and it spilled on the floor breaking the glass, but by the end of the evening I was having a wonderful time and the barrier I had for so long battled to overcome was over. After that Click and Drag closed. The second time I went out to the "Slipper Room" , Daddy approached me and we chatted and he made me very comfortable and suggested that I start posting on the boards, it was that night that I chose to get involved with and attend Queen Mother Events. I don't know what would of happened if Johnny didn't approach me that nite, but it was the catalyst of my metamorphosis.

I have been "out" for over a year now and cannot express in words how much this site has helped me in that endeavor and the people whom I met associated with Queen Mother welcomed me with open arms. It is now very important to me to support my new friends as often as possible and to make new people who appear in our community as comfortable as this community has made me.

The key word here is "We" Can "we" build a Less Prejudice TG Community. The very thing that we fight against rears its ugly head amongst us. Some guilty of the very same crime we accuse others of, Prejudice. No matter how much we wish that we have a community that could bond together we must realize although we are a community, we are made up of different neighborhoods. We are not any different than any other community or neighborhood that exists in this world. No matter how hard we wish, dream or try prejudice will always exist. However, we can all make a concerted effort to strengthening our community by reaching out and supporting each other in hopes that someday our dreams of one community will become a reality.

Sweetie's topic and this site are an important step in bringing us all together.
