Why is there an alt.transgendered newsgroup?

0

In October 1992 a prankster at North Carolina State University created alt.sex.trans. As individuals from IRC’s #Crossdress and Transgen were contemplating a newsgroup at that time they sort of took up the idea quickly. They decided that we now had the initiative, but that a group in the alt.sex hierarchy would have limited distribution. In a rush the name “alt.transgendered” was penned, a call for discussions was placed, and Chris Dukes/Kristine Daniels sent in the message to create alt.transgendered as a discussion area for transsexuality, transvestitism, and related topics.
