When I first joined, I spent way too much time and was interfering with my bedtime - and frankly, my hobbies / interests suffered. Had to go cold turkey for a while, like a year, and now I try and manage my time better. I met a lot of nice people here and was enjoying the conversations and meeting new friends so it was hard not to read everything. Now try to keep to about 30 minutes a day average but kinda failing, more like an hour.
I have a lot of free time these days, and spend much of it reading, both books and online (and online ebooks!). So it really depends upon what's going on, on any given day. If I'm into a really good book, I might not be online for a day or two, as I'm focused on the book. Basically I go to the forums I attend, look over the threads, and see if there's anything new and interesting. some forums are easier; they notify you if you've had someone respond to one of your posts. Others we have to check each and every thread.

There's an addendum at post # 82 on that thread, too. It's about a ten minute read.
Why don't we understand our desire to dress, behave and feel like a girl? Because from childhood, boys are told that the worst possible thing we can be, is a sissy. This feeling is so ingrained into our psyche, that we will suppress any thoughts that connect us to being or wanting to be feminine, even to the point of creating separate personalities to assign those female feelings into.
I'm like Rayleen, new and on quite a bit. It's nice to be part of a like minded community. I'm sure that the amount of time I'm on will settle down over time. I also find that I 'need' to be on slightly more due to the time difference between the UK and the US, not forgetting of course those from around the rest of the world.
Depends on what is going on in my life. On a normal day, I may get 20 to 30 minutes on this site and maybe half the time I will reply to a post. Then there are times when I may go weeks without even looking.
I am not busy at work, I would say total of a couple hours a day but 5 or 10 minutes at a time. Mostly reading the few threads that interest me and checking for any direct replies to the few posts I make. I quit replying to every post because I found myself typing the same old replies to the same old "What am I?", "Why am I?" and "Who likes wearing women's clothing?" threads over and over again.
I'm rarely on here more than once each day. Being retired I spend a couple of hours each morning reading the forums here that really interest me, plus forums on my other hobbies and interests. It's a nice way to have breakfast and a pot of tea.

I usually roll in for a while during my breaks at work.
I spend about 30 minutes a day on here. I enjoy this site
i am new here, but plan to spend maybe 15min per day if there are no spying eyes
Just as some of my entertainment dollar is gambled at the casino, some of my entertainment time is spent here.
I am on and off during the day and when time permits.
I'm on here almost daily, I at least check the forum once a day if I'm not out of town or working on something that has to be done. I am retired but still work on the farm, hunt and fish during the seasons, play with the grandkids and attend their functions, and I do try and wear something feminine nearly every day, even if it's just my panties. I'm on the down hill side now of 68 and kinda do my own thing. Wife stays on Facebook every day and so I try and check this place out daily. I have friends on here that I enjoy reading what they write. A few i keep in touch with thru messages and a few by phone. I'm not out so I do most of my dressing on the down low in secret. My wife knows but is not interested anymore in what Jaylyn does so I have a little time to read the forums and keep up with every ones lives. This is the best spot I've found for what we do. I'm on at least ten to fifteen minutes a day average.
Roughly five minutes a day. I read a few posts that I feel are interesting, maybe reply to one or two and then move on to other things....
I've been a member for less than a month and spend several minutes each day.
Being retired being productive isn't something I have to consider in the same way as those in employment say. I usually log in after breakfast for a short while unless I end up responding to a thread or 2. I might log in later that afternoon for a while and then perhaps later on that evening. I know that might seem a lot but it means I don't have to read too many new threads each time. Also if I do respond to a post I take the time to read, even if it's only scan read, all the other replies as opposed to just adding my pen'uth.
Plus what's written here is often more entertaining than what's on the TV. Certainly shows more intelligence.
Who dares wears Get in, get out without being noticed
Sometimes daily for about an hour, then writers block kicks in and nothing for a week or two.
When I start writing I generally don't stop whilst I have ideas or suggestions.
Work on your elegance,
and beauty will follow.
I am usually on here 15 to 20 minutes a day. Mostly in the evening, every so often in the morning. In the beginning, I was spending a lot more time here, but it has tapered down to the 20 minutes.
