CHARTER: alt.support.intergendered
Posted weekly to alt.support.intergendered.
PURPOSE
The intent of this newsgroup is to provide a supportive, informative and
friendly environment for intergendered individuals.
Intergendered individuals do not gender themselves as 'men' or 'women',
but somewhere inbetween, as a mix of both masculine and feminine
qualities. Others gender themselves as neither 'men' nor 'women'
(agendered or non-gendered), thus placing themselves 'outside' of the
gender 'spectrum' completely.
Given this, intergendered individuals tend to present (to varing
degrees) in a non-descript or ambiguous manner by means of androgyny,
partial crossderssing, genderbending, and part-time cross-gender living,
to name a few.
Intergendered should not be confused with intersexed, as the two are
quite different. It is not the intent of this to be an intersexed
support forum.
This newsgroup is open to anyone (intersexed individuals included),
provided that posted articles are on topic and of relevance to
intergendered individuals.
ON-TOPIC
Articles posted to this newsgroup should be of relevance to
intergendered individuals or about the newsgroup itself. Posts about
genderbending, part-time cross-gender living and the implications
thereof are examples of posts considered to be on-topic.
New individuals to the group are encouraged to post a short introduction
about themselves and their situation.
Announcements concerning transcommunity activism, support group
meetings, important events and transcribed news articles of interest to
intergendered individuals are allowed and encouraged.
Biweekly posting of personal advertisements, not othwewise excluded
herein are allowed.
Posting Monthly pointers to websites of interest to gender community in
general are also allowed.
OFF-TOPIC
As stated above, this is not an intersexed support forum. Given that,
posts dealing with intersexed issues are deemed as off-topic.
Personal attacks, sexual come-ons, ISOs, works of fiction, commercial
advertisements, trolls, flames and general 'spam' are strictly
prohibited.
Especially frowned upon is the open condemnation of *any* transgendered
lifestyle. If you are here to preach about how awful we are, feel free
to let yourself out and not come back.
The posting of 'Binaries' (pix, programs, sound files - generally
anything encoded for posting purposes) is prohibited. There are plenty
of alt.binaries groups for such posts.
Articles posted in response to articles of questionable topicality are
also deemed to be off-topic. Off topic articles should be ignored.
