The accused Craigslist killer, may have been soliciting transwomen as well as women for sexual encounters through the online classified service under M4T (men for transsexuals).

Hi Donna--
This is confusing, because the unidentified male initially says that he posted an "M4T" ad (male for trans), and that Markoff answered it.

But the language in the article would lead me to believe that the unidentified male was the one who was "T." (Markoff addresses him as "babe," for instance.)

I don't believe we can quote articles, so I won't paste in the exact quotes.

Here's another situation where transwomen are automatically "men." I know that Casual Encounters has a bad reputation, but I do get tired of this.

Was I correct in assuming that he was also involved with hook-ups at the Mohegan Sun Casino? If so......this is really scarey!

Hi, Anita -

Whole articles cannot be quoted, but 'intro' and/or pertinent portions may be posted . . . just provide the link to the article/blog for reference and so the reader may view the entire article at will.

We were having several members who were reprinting entire articles, blog posts and the like - many of which were extremely long. Only a couple of members were also providing the link and giving credit to the original author/source, making it clear that the member was not the author. Because there was no valid reason for the articles to be reprinted in their entirety at our forum, especially when a link to the article is available, and we did not want to infringe on copyrights, we are no longer permitting the same.
