Too often in the TS/TG World, aliases are used like the robes and hood of the KKK, to attack and defame others who are willing to stand up, while using their own name and take a stance.  It doesn't matter if that stance is right or wrong.

I'm not a pleaser.  I don't kiss up and pretend or put up some other person's picture to impress people with how "real" I am (and you aren't nyah-nyah-nyah).  ->-bleeped-<- that ->-bleeped-<- I'm an old anarchist hippie dyke who would rather hug a tree and carry a picket sign at a rally where people know who I am than play that game.

I'm not impressed with how stealth you are and how that makes you more of a real woman than me.  If you have a blog or website and comment on half the LGBT/T blogs and websites in the English speaking world, you ain't really stealth.  Trust me on that one.

Maybe I should create a sock puppet avatar...

Reminds me of crab fishing. You don't need to put a lid on the basket, because if one tries to climb out the others pull it back down again.

The next online group or forum I join I am naming my avatar Sockpuppet.
