Would you attend a TG social event?

[Devlyn]

There's a local TG group that does get-togethers, I attend some of the dances if they're renting a hall. Events at clubs I don't usually go to. I've gone to a couple support group meetings, it's like staying signed in here. 

Do you socialize with other TG people? In what context?

Hugs, Devlyn

I'm not that social  of a person in general, but I'm working on that. Eventually I would do that.... Still kind of scared of people at the moment.

Did I miss your name somewhere? Or is Ids98498 good enough? 

The group I associate with has a come as you are policy. No judgment if people show up anywhere on the spectrum. We all start, and finish, somewhere.

Laurel, I love that name! You have to ask the Staff to change it for you.

That happens after the dance if you know the right hotel room.

Lol have you been there

[Devlyn]

Lol have you been there

No. Maybe. Don't put me on the spot! 

[natalie.ashlyne]

not that there is any thing wrong with it. I am just trying to be a good girl now

[Devlyn]

So would you prefer more of a social setting (without the orgy) or more of a support group?

[natalie.ashlyne]

can be the same thing just with out the orgy see I was told that the hall they rent is like an orgy room it gets blocked off and ya that is what I was told I was asked to go and said no. What happens normally in them ? I am really curious and would love to go

[Devlyn]

It's at the Best Western usually, they rent a big conference room and cater some food, bring in a TG DJ and set up a small bar. Each event has a "Queen"  elected by the attendees that gets a sash, tiara, and flowers. There is a professional photographer who will take free photos of you. Some folks stay upstairs at the hotel, some go home. I'm a hotel girl, that thing runs way past my bedtime!

[natalie.ashlyne]

Ok well that sound cool ya I would totally like to go.

[Devlyn]

The group is called Fish-N.E.T.S. on Facebook. Their next event at the hotel in Marlborough is in April, the Spring Bling Dance.

I went to a group once a week that was mixed spectrum for 6 months .the groups ran in segments of 6 months thenformed a different group. It was interesting , but no one said anything about motel rooms

I attend a monthly support group meeting. And we also have several friends that are in various places in the rainbow alphabet spectrum that we like to meet with for dinners or gatherings. I have learned to really value the opportunity to spend time with folks that you don't have to explain things to so I can just relax and have fun with friends.

We have a T-Girl dance party at a club the first Saturday of every month in Long Beach.  There are a couple of other places that are starting to have events at some other clubs. I go every now and then and it's always a fun time. It's a great way to get out and meet other trans people. I've gotten to know so many people from the community.  It's great to see so many people in different stages of transition and others who aren't sure of transition. I always learn something new when I'm meeting new people.

[SadieBlake]

As I've had the opportunity and never have I'd have to say no.

I hadn't heard of the group you mentioned however Tiffany club, aka TCNE is closer and I've never been interested. I've met a few of their members and nice folks, also TCNE as far as I know has grown past it's origins as a cross dressing group, still I generally don't seek out people in transition.

My "family" is queer/lesbian/leather and in those contexts as well as in my work I meet lots of trans women. I've never found I share many interests with people just because they're transitioning.

I would go to the social events. The events I would choose though would be more mundane.  Afternoon tea, knitting circle, shopping, going out to dinner, that is more my style.  Being normal doing normal things I find so much more fulfilling.

[Transfused]

I wouldn't.
I like to talk to other trans people online but in real life I don't want to be around other trans people. I want to live my life as a woman and not as a trans woman. All I have in common with other trans people is that we both are trans and we had no say over that. It's not because both of us are trans that that instantly makes us friends, IMHO.

I want to live as a cis woman despite being a trans woman.
