The Rose is a monthly publication of the Metroplex CD Club and is available to paid members and sister clubs. Articles are submitted by club members or are taken from other newsletters, publications or electronic media. Subjects range from true life crossdressing tales, to comedy and art, to poetry and politics. Most everyone can find something of interest in the Rose. Other timely information includes the location and directions to the next monthly meeting and the schedule of upcoming events both locally and nationally. And as always, there is information on support activities for individual help and family support.    This publication alone is worth your membership fee!
