Consent Policy

Community Consent and Privacy Policy

Welcome to our community. This platform is dedicated to fostering open, supportive, and meaningful discussions regarding sexuality and gender. Because these conversations are deeply personal and may involve the disclosure of an individual’s gender and sexual identities, we require all users to read, understand, and agree to the following consent policy before participating.

1. Voluntary Participation

Participation in any conversation on this platform is strictly voluntary. No user is ever obligated to share personal experiences, identities, or opinions. You are always free to simply read and observe, or to withdraw from a conversation at any time.

2. Public Visibility and Consent to Post

Please be aware that this is a public forum. By submitting a comment or participating in a discussion, you explicitly consent to your comment and the information contained within it being seen publicly by other visitors and members of the website. Please use your discretion when deciding what personal information you choose to disclose.

3. Mutual Respect

We are a diverse community with varying backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives. Mutual respect is expected among all participants at all times. Disagreements may occur, but they must be handled civilly, constructively, and with empathy for fellow community members.

4. Zero Tolerance for Bullying

Bullying, harassment, name-calling, and intimidation are absolutely NOT tolerated in any shape or form. This includes invalidating another person’s identity, using slurs, or engaging in targeted harassment. Any violation of this rule will result in immediate moderation action.

5. Prohibition on External Sharing

To maintain a safe environment for our members to share vulnerable information, what is said here stays here. No comments, threads, or discussions are to be shared, screenshot, copied, or distributed anywhere else outside of this website.

6. Anti-Doxing Policy

Protecting the anonymity and safety of our users is our highest priority. Doxing—the act of publicly revealing previously private, sensitive, or identifying information about a participant (such as their real name, workplace, address, or personal social media accounts) without their explicit consent—is strictly prohibited. Engaging in doxing is immediate grounds for a permanent ban from the platform.

By continuing to use this website and participating in our discussions, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agreed to abide by this Consent Policy. Thank you for helping us build a safe and respectful community.
