- This might be a good time to mention that I facilitate/moderate a large,
- friendly, digested e-mail list for cross-dressing and other trans-gendered
- folks. I have included the policy blurb and subscription address below,
- so you can decide if you are interested. After posting your initial
- introduction, lurking is okay--but I would MUCH prefer to subscribe people
- who will participate in the discussions and share their experiences.
- _______________________________________________________________________________
-
- Policy: 1. With EACH article, let me know how to sign you; use a
- consistent pseudonym. I will ALWAYS strip the header and signature of all
- identification UNLESS you tell me otherwise. 2. Respect the opinions and
- privacy of other forum members. 3. There is no rule #3. 4. All subjects
- related to gender are welcome. 5. Each article submitted will be
- published if it has any gender-issue content or if it is a reply to a
- previous cd-digest article. Even flames will be published, if they are at
- least somewhat respectful, and they are supported by intelligent
- comments. 6. However, members who habitually disrupt the harmony of the
- forum will be warned, then eventually unsubscribed if necessary. 7. See
- rule #2. 8. The views expressed in cd-forum are those of the individual
- authors only. 9. Quoted excerpts from outside sources serve only as
- private communication to the readers of cd-forum, for personal use only.
- The quotes are not to be copied or otherwise used in a manner which
- violates rights of their copyright holders. 10. DO NOT FORWARD, QUOTE,
- DISTRIBUTE, TRADE, OR SELL ANY PORTION OF A CD-FORUM DIGEST TO ANY
- INDIVIDUAL, PUBLICATION, MAILING LIST, NEWS GROUP, BULLETIN BOARD, SUPPORT
- GROUP, OR ANY OTHER PARTY, without the explicit permission of the
- author(s) AND the cd-forum moderator.

- ADMINISTRATION REQUESTS/QUESTIONS: cd-request@valis.biocad.com

-
- A subscription request MUST include a short paragraph describing why you
- want to join. You must then submit an introduction/biography to cd-forum
- within one month of subscription. Your address will be kept in strict
- confidence. You may use a pseudonym for articles in the forum.
