Keep Transvestism for Transvestites!

Over the last few months I’ve noticed an alarming trend. A lot of people, including some of my non-tranny friends, are turning tranny. Completely “normal” people with no previous transvestite tendencies are crossing over the borders to transvestism. Some claim they are unhappy and oppressed in their orientations of origin, but many appear to be lured by our nicer clothes, improved job prospects, better parties, and higher educational standards.

Now, I’m not given to prejudice, but I do feel, as a natural-born transvestite, that this influx of new-comers is leading to an inevitable watering down and fragmentation of the tranny community. Many of them don’t even have a concept of the values and traditions that transvestites hold dear, such as guilt, purging, and self-delusion. Also, many of them show no desire to learn our language or customs. For example, there are already so-called transvestites living the lifestyle today that have never been to the Way Out Club!

So I say it’s time to take a stand against this influx of Jenni-Come-Latelys! It’s time to say enough is enough! It’s time to make it clear to them that we’ve Done Our Bit and that Transvestism is Full.

Of course, I’m not proposing a total ban on new transvestites. Many people have a legitimate claim to be a transvestite, and the community can gain from the skills they would bring. I’m just suggesting there should be stricter rules for the people we allow in from now on:

1. Every alternative lifestyle (including transvestism) should only have to accept a quota of straight individuals each year. Straight people seeking refuge should be allocated fairly amongst the non-straight communities. I am convinced that many straight refugees would be just as happy becoming (for example) a lesbian, given the right opportunities. It’s only the perceived attraction of transvestism from afar that means we’ve taken an unfairly large share of the load in the past.


2. People who set out to reach transvestite status should be stopped and processed at the first alternative lifestyle that they reach. For example, a person who has arrived at “a little bit, you know, poofy” on their way to transvestism should be held there until the proper tests are completed to prove they have legitimate grounds for leaving “straight”.


3. Once people have proved that they have genuine need to become a transvestite, there should be a compulsory re-education program to integrate them fully into the community. This should incorporate a minimum 10-year closeting period, including at least 4 purge cycles. Only once the necessary levels of guilt have been instilled in the individual should they be allowed full transvestite status.


4. To maintain the transvestite economy at grass-roots level, during the first 5 years all new transvestites should be required to buy all their clothes at Transformations.

This may sound a little harsh, but I believe that allowing just anyone to become a transvestite is removing our exclusivity and destroying the one thing that makes transvestism an attractive prospect in the first place. So, please join me in my fight to keep transvestism for transvestites, and display the poster below in your window, at your work-place, or on your web site.

Thank you and good night.
