I am afraid of being put on a site like 4chan, where I will be put out on display for everyone to ridicule.. plus, I frequent other forums with my face on them and I know a few of them have TG individuals who will probably notice me off the bat and with all of the gossip going on, I know it would likely out me shortly after. It is a risk, that I could be outed to my family before I am ready for it, because I have left too many trails on the Internet leading back to myself.
Trust me, I would love to put up a photo of myself, and get some suggestions, input, etc. If I were to do it right now though, you would see me in a baseball cap, wearing glasses, with huge eyebrows, and a 48 hour beard. I like putting photos of myself online, because it establishes a trust that I am a legitimate person, and places accountability.. which is why it would be so easy to trace me back online to my real name, facebook profile, all of that wonderful stuff..
If in the future, I feel more comfortable with it, I may sent people my picture if I feel comfortable with them. As it stands right now, I'm pretty paranoid of people recognizing my writing style..
