Joining
Come on in! We have cookies and lemonade. All you have to do is click "join group" and state which "category" you fall under (FTM, MTF, Genderqueer, Neutrois, etc) so we can put you on the The Out-Yourself Wall.
EVERYONE is allowed to join, and will automatically be accepted.
If you have already joined as a member, and would like to be a contributor, just tell one of the admins, and we can switch you over.
Basic Etiquette and Rules
PLEASE CLICK AND READ UPON JOINING
This is a support group, not a political debate group. If you consistently act rude, insensitive, or attack another member, you will be removed from the group. You mess with us, we'll mess with you.
A lot of events that take place on this page manifest from the voices of the members themselves, not just myself. This having been said, if a member finds themselves banned, it is most likely the will of a distressed portion of the group, rather than the moderators.
Submitting Your Work
This group is specifically for art that deals with the topic of gender identity. When submitting art to #b00b-B-gone, please make sure it fits the following:
1. Your work must be about gender identity. (We are not a group for LGB art, unless the art also has Transgender themes.)
2. Your art must be supportive of transgender and gender queer people. Work that is anti-trans or against deviantART rules will not be posted.
3. Keep submissions related to the aforementioned theme. (i.e. A picture of you with your cat or cosplaying your favorite character is really not directly related.)
4. Try to keep submissions artistic. ("Myspace photos" or shots in front of a mirror will be denied.)
5. Deviations are limited to 3/week and are subject to vote.
Submitting Blogs
Anyone is allowed to submit a blog, as long as it is related to group interests, keeps up with DA rules, and isn't offensive. You may post personal accomplishments or failures, or you may post community news. It does not have to be in English.
