I&#8217;d say it&#8217;s certainly one of the sketchier social networking sites out there despite its mainstream popularity.  And I don&#8217;t log on too often because of that and finally turned off the option for anyone to post anything on my &#8220;wall,&#8221; because it was just too much work to clean up.  I&#8217;ve probably gotten more marriage proposals on there and emails with long passages of purple prose talking about love and searching for one&#8217;s soulmate, all from perfect strangers whom I&#8217;ve never talked with before.  It&#8217;s always a little disconcerting to get those, especially when there&#8217;s no mention of crossdressing or bondage or any reference to any common interests.  I&#8217;m always thinking, &#8220;This person certainly knows I&#8217;m a CD, right?&#8221;  I assume they do and maybe they consider it bad manners to address it directly, but hey, no, actually if someone writes and says, &#8220;I love crossdressers and bondage&#8221; that&#8217;s great (well, hopefully they&#8217;ll write a little more than just that.)  But even then we might actually have a conversation.<\/p>\n<p>Just this evening I also got a request for money from someone who&#8217;s going through a tough patch.  I&#8217;m sorry to hear about that but there are probably other sources of support than a strange tranny with some sissy maid pictures, but I&#8217;m just guessing here.  Anyway, I&#8217;m not really upset or anything, just a little baffled at the level of bizarre.  Of course, I&#8217;m not going to cancel my account, as it&#8217;s great free publicity for sending people over to my own much smaller <a href=\"http:\/\/www.tranniesintrouble.com\/main.html\">website<\/a>.  Finally though, if you and I have ever exchanged emails on Facebook, believe me, I like you very much and don&#8217;t think you&#8217;re strange at all.  No, of course not&#8230;unless you&#8217;re asking for my Paypal account or calling me a sweet flower of the morning who will bring you the joy and love you fervently seeketh in life (but not spelled that well).  Good luck!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There are some friends and nice people whom I occasionally hear from on Facebook but I also get so many weird emails, to the point that I sometimes wonder if I should just cancel my profile.
