Like I said earlier we need to see examples of what ritto is calling crossdressers.

Crossdressers come to the gay bars sometimes. They look like someone's grandfather dressed up like a character from a sixties television sitcom. This really is what I think of when I think of the word Crossdresser. Actually the word Transvestite gives me a mental image of "some hairy straight non-feminine guy sitting around in lingerie whacking his meat." I really don't think anyone would want to look at these mental images. I know I would like to have them removed from my mind.

Then you have the pretty boys doing drag that just kind of blend in with with shemales, drag queens, transsexuals and the other looks like a girl but may not be. I would say that DeliaCD would fit right in this group.

If this would be something that I would have a lot of I would probably split my tranny category up between With Body Modification like Tits and Without Body Modification like Tits or maybe Feminine TVs and Shemales. All these names are misnomers but this is more street slang then anything PC.

The escort sites like Eros lumps them all together.

To be honest I really need to split up some of my other categories much more.

Thanks for the links!

Of course I think "pretty boys in drag" sounds like a hot category, but maybe that's just me. I suppose a lot of the "girls" wouldn't like to be called "boys". It's a tough one, for sure, and is just nice to be listed anywhere at all in whatever category.

There are honestly linklists and tgp's that have a "trannies need not apply" rule particularly when it comes to fetish clothing sites (hosiery, panties, etc.). I'm not bringing it up to complain about it or say that they should list content/sites they're not interested in, but am only saying it in response to Ritto's post and to give people pause to think that maybe they are losing out on money by NOT listing it. I think it's a mistake to assume there's any type of content with absolutely NO audience. Even the Milton Berle style amateur drag stuff which I know people trade a lot and post a lot in online communities so *someone* must like to look at it, even if for no other reason than it makes crossdressers feel like they're not alone -- and there are a lot of crossdressers in this world, many of them CRAVING community and reassurance for some of the reasons highlighted in this thread with the stigma of it being bizarre and unattractive.
