Ladies, this is a frequent topic of mine, and I'm very surprised I have to keep harping on it.

The public areas of this site are searchable from the internet. ANYTHING posted in forums, peoples' pages, in chat, etc can be seen by trolls not on this site, and used to their advantage.

Email addresses, phone numbers, reddit pages, twitter (X) feeds, or any other way to communicate off of this site are not allowed to be published in a public area of the site.

If someone contacts you on this site and wants contact information off-site, report it to the staff, please.

Let me tell you a story... one time a member of TGH shared her email privately with another member who ended up being  a scammer. she gave them her phone number, too, and she was spammed and scammed. She was so upset she called the local police and reported all of this as being because of the site... no, it's because she overshared and didn't protect her information.

If you wish to share this private information, the ONLY way to do it on this site is in a Private Chat or a Private Message. Those are not searchable from the internet. Remember, though, once you've shared  that information, they have it... and you can't take it back.

Please protect yourself, and our members... and don't share private information in the public areas of the site... please!

Thanks Pride Heart Trans Heart  

Be excellent to one another!

@billiejay Excellent advice.  I was recently scammed and I thought I was too smart to fall for something like that.  What I learned is scammers are very good at what they do and you can't be too careful.  So, thanks for the reminder.

Excellent advice. Its why I'm very suspicious and judicious in accepting friend requests.

Normally, I don't get to peruse the images posted here, but I recently had to do a crossdressing image search, probably on Google. That's when I noticed some familiar images posted here with the links back here for other crossdressing topics, too.

Once uploaded, we lose control.

yes, some images get trolled and re-uploaded to other sites.

Private pics, however, cannot be searched from the 'net, and thus should be protected.

of course, trolls make accounts (and can thus see private galleries) as well...

It is just so sad people have nothing better to do with their time.  Everyone on this group has their reason's for why they cross dress and that is their business and nobody else's.  Society has got so precious now, so cynical, so nosey that they have to poke their nose into everyone else's business and have the audacity to criticise people of their actions, look down their noses in disapproval with out understanding why and then there are others to just constantly harrass, intimidate or constantly make unjust, unneeded, unwanted, unfair and hurtful remarks online or worse they track us indviduals down and start making mention in our communities.  Just so so sad this what life has become, can't do this, can't say this etc with out offending someone now days, I dread to think what will come next!
