| FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Which Monday of the month is the party on? The party is held EVERY Monday night except for Christmas and New Year's if they fall on Mondays. We know it's hard to believe that such an awesome party can exist EVERY Monday night, so that's all the more reason to come out and show your support for the #1 tgirl party on the planet! Remember, it's EVERY Monday! EVERY Monday!
Where is the party? The party is at Tavern on Camac located on tiny cobblestone-laden Camac street. You can't drive down the street. You have to walk to get to the club. The exact address is 243 South Camac Street in Philadelphia.
What is the cover charge? There is no cover charge. Monday
Night Tgirls is a FREE party. We are a bunch of cool tgirls who believe in improving the quality of the transgender party scene in Philadelphia. There are two ways to support our party: come join us at the parties or subscribe to KalinaIsato.com, which helps pay for this web site and promotional materials for the party. Even if you can't come to the parties in person, joining KalinaIsato.com really helps our cause.
Where do I park? Park
your car in the parking garage at Locust and Juniper and get your ticket validated at Tavern on Camac for the special $9 evening rate. You can also find free street parking if you don't mind walking a few blocks.
Are guys welcome? Yes, so long as you act gentlemanly. Many girls here love guys who appreciate them, so show respect to everyone because every girl is at a different point in her gender transition path.
Is there a tgirl admirer etiquette that guys need to be aware of? If you come to the party and just lurk without socializing, you are not welcome back. The guys we love are the ones who engage in conversation and buy us drinks to show their appreciation. Many guys believe that the only "hot" transsexuals in the world are the ones who have an hourly rate. This party was created to defy that notion as you will see many fine examples of the hottest transsexuals on the planet here who don't charge a dime for their time.
What
is the party like? Imagine a relaxed bar and lounge atmosphere devoid of escorts, go-go dancers, and strippers. Imagine an open and accepting environment
for beginning to advanced part-time crossdressers as well as full-time
transsexuals and their friends, lovers, and admirers. Your attendance
will help make this fun party flourish and we want you to tell your
friends that Monday Night Tgirls in Philadelphia is the place
to be. We average 25 to 40 people per night which means everyone gets an equal chance to socialize
with everyone else. Our party is only at Tavern on Camac on Mondays, but a few tgirls go there on other nights. Drink prices range from $4 specials to $7.75 top-shelf martinis. As with any reputable gay bar, drinks are STRONG. Please note that this is not some perverted private fetish sex party.
What
is Tavern on Camac like? Tavern
on Camac is a multi-level club with a restaurant, piano bar,
and dance club. The environment is relaxed and friendly and
there are straight, gay, lesbian, and transgender people drinking
and socializing there.
If I come as a boy, are there rooms to change? Yes, there is a bathroom on the top floor that
has large stalls for those of you who need to change, but we
recommend not spending too much time in one since there will
be others waiting. It is your responsibility to keep your valuables
with you at all times.
When does the party start and end? The party officially starts at 9pm. Some girls arrive prior to 9pm to change or socialize with others. The piano bar atmosphere is generally warm and cozy and you will find a mix of gays, lesbians, and transgender people there on any given night of the week. Depending on the number of guests, the party usually ends around 1am. The group usually hangs out at the piano bar until 10:30pm and then moves upstairs to the dance club.
Why
is the party on Monday nights? Many
part-time tgirls have families and can't go out on weekends.
We figured transsexuals can go out any night of the week and we didn't want to exclude anyone in our parties, so we chose
Monday night as our official party night and it's worked very well for us. Read more history here.
Is there a dress code? Dress fashionably. Clothes reflect the person. If there is a theme for the week, we
encourage everyone to dress in that theme, but it is not required.
This is a casual lounge atmosphere so jeans and sneakers are acceptable. It is also a PG-13 party so clothing and shoes are required. Outlandish acts involving nudity will not be tolerated. Please be respectful
of all of our guests. OUTRAGEOUS COSTUMES THAT SHOW NO NUDITY are acceptable and even praised.
 What is your photo and video policy? You may take pictures of anyone who gives you permission. My photographers take pictures and tape videos of everything, so if you don't want to be in a picture or video, please wear our CHERRY WRISTBAND (available for $5 at the party or online) inside out with the white lettering not showing. Owners of first generation cherry wristbands need not flip their wristbands inside out. Bear in mind that we have made significant investments in our photography equipment, so if you would like us to take pictures of you that we can email to you without showing them on this web site, there will be a small fee for this service.
How do you handle harassment? Harrassment of any kind will not be tolerated. If someone is treating you unfairly, bring it to a cast member's attention and we will inform the club's management to take care of the situation. Everyone, whether they are crossdresser or transsexual, will be treated equally at our parties. |
