Personally I hope that this forum lasts for a long time. I think its fair to say that most people my age (early 20s) are either using other social media like reddit or tumblr, or they may just be lurking.
There are many times more lurkers than members at any given time. They're all welcome to come out of the shadows, of course, but I suppose many are simply curious, others frightened or shy, and a few might just get off on reading about real life CDrs'
The crossdressing community is one that needs to stick together and continue to be there for each other for whatever one needs. We are always trying to improve the forum to better serve the crossdresser in all of us.
