OK, I've been meaning to do this for a little while. I have to express a huge thanks to the wonderful people who started this forum and to everyone who participates, and to the moderators who I'm sure keep everything on track, can't be easy. I've never, ever before found a place where I feel safe and free to express myself as Christen. I've seen maybe one or two negative comments compared to about a billion insightful, intelligent, caring, witty threads and responses. This is such a positive place for all of us. I take great peace and lightness from my friends and interactions here. It helps me in many ways.
So, thank you to all the friends I've made, girls and guys I've chatted to, and everyone one I haven't met yet. I've been doing this for 50'ish years and only now feel like I belong.

Love to everyone,
Christen x

Amen to that girlfriend :hugs:
Every place else I've been on the web seems to center around Tgirl porn to dating services to god knows what. The point is that there's always some sort of sexual connotation attatched.
This is the first Truly social site for support and socialization that I myself have found, and I absolutely love it here.

I agree, this is the best site with the nicest people I have seen. Like you say most of the others are about sex and have some really gross people on them. I feel safe and secure here and everyone is so supportive and will offer very good advise about life struggles with any problem that comes up. I of course really like Karren Hutton, she tells it like it is. I have met some great girls here and am friends with several of them across the country. We correspond weekly and they are very dear to me. Have a great day and stay FEM.

Hi Christen , Welcome to our forum, When you are here you are home.

I couldn't have said it better.

Have to agree. What I find funny is that I was one of those that came here for close to a year before creating my own account. Fear of being identified kept me off. Now I look back and realize just how silly that was. Thank you to those adventurous enough to have started this forum and thank you to those who make comments here and help others so much!

We CDers would be adrift without this site.

I would again like to express my gratitude to the Admin and the Mods. Thank you!

I agree 100%! I found this forum (and was accepted) just when I needed it! Thank you!

Fully agree that this site is well run by caring admins and mods who are great at spotting trolls and at keeping the conversation focused and polite. The best thing about the site is that even if you don't actually know someone on the site, they reveal so much of themselves that you feel like you know them -- and when you actually do meet, it's like long lost friends.

A hearty "thank you" to the mods and the admins for a job well done, indeed.

I have been on many forums, starting before the internet. That was back when we dialed directly into servers to check up on Usenet. This is the finest non-business forum I have ever encountered.

I believe the largest part of that success is due to the tireless work of the administrators and moderators. They are volunteers, people that do that largely thankless work, with self-satisfaction as their only reward. I know how hard it is to remain motivated in a volunteer position and applaud them for their time and effort. I have yet to see any trace of a flame war or insult.

Best wishes

Christen I like you and many others watched the site for a while before I ever posted. There is a feeling of safety here, but remember the internet is still the internet. Post what you feel here but we should all still be a bit cautious. I think the mods and admins here do a great job and I thank them for working hard to protect us. This is the best site for learning and waking up to the fact of how many CD's there really are out there. I have met several on here that I keep in touch with in emails also. This site makes me not feel alone in all this.

I so totally agree, Christen! I am really new to this site but I already have learned so much--especially about myself. The level of acceptance and support is extraordinary. What you posted can't be expressed enough. Much love and respect to the moderators!

Cheers to all of that also; I've found lots of great folks here with wisdom & support, and where would we be without our admin & support staff that make all this happen!

Thanks to you all,

Jamie

This forum is so cool. There are no ads or pop-ups. I have no idea who runs it or owns it, but I'm glad it's here!

Yes this is such a wonderful place, I hate all those CD sites with the sex pictures and all the garbage, I feel I can be safe here and have made many friends.
Thanks for expressing what many here think Christen

Being on a couple of boards of local non-profits, I have a good idea of all that goes on behind the scenes to make things happen. A big thank you to not only those that setup this site, but to those that maintain it also.

This is an amazing place. From the bottom of my heart "Thank you!" to all the owner, mods, and the members of this board. You've made a pretty big difference in my life in a very short time.

Know that feeling well, Christen.
Knowing where we belong, and how we fit is a most special thing.
And this is that sort of place (Yay!)
Thanks for the reminder, girl
