"Posting personal issues on a fetish forum," or, "And no fucks were given that day."

I've never been one to post personal issues unrelated to kink on fetish forums.
Sometimes I post them now in specialized subgroups on Fetlife, but even then
I am very careful. If something bad happened in my life and I want only sympathy
and kind words, I'll say so. I generally reserve this sort of thing for a blog, not a forum.
If I am looking for advice, I brace myself for whatever people may throw at me. Sure,
sometimes it's nice to get a different angle from a stranger who knows nothing about
the situation other than what you've posted. At what point, though, is enough enough?

So, do you see forums such as this as an outlet for your own personal, well, bullshit?

You get the point.
 
I normally don't post really personal stuff on public sites like this, especially it being a fetish forum. Don't get me wrong, I love the people here and consider many of them to be great friends - but I try to just keep it kink related on a site like this. It's not a regular forum. But I also don't usually go to strangers for advice, it's uncomfortable for me.

And going with the picture theme:

Considering the last few posts in my thread, and this thread, I'm sure this was at least (partially) directed at me.

You made your point, Brighteyes. How many times do I have to say that I was WRONG for posting that thread. The (current 3 weeks long thread) was only the second ill advised thread about my personal life since summer 2011.

Honestly, I think the reactions to, and length of, the thread were as bad as the original thread itself.
 
I think a lot of people post their problems to people they consider to be friends. Or at least, people they respect the opinion of.

If those people happen to reside on a fetish forum, what option do they have? General Discussion exists for precisely that reason.

Yes, everything is about you.

I've never been anyone's sex slave, or slave.
 
In my opinion, this should be a place where people can post about their own personal situations, and if there are people who "don't give a fuck" and make this fact known, all they'll be doing is poisoning the atmosphere and preventing the forum from being what it should be. Of course, nobody is saying you have to, but it's important that those who do share personal information not be ridiculed for it, because that's what this kind of forum should be for.
 
Its not that bad...

However, if a guy posted: "I have herpes! How can I tickle my girlfriend's feet after the second date, and get a blow job afterwards during a breakout? She only has Syphilis..."

Now, that may or may not be a little too much information.

Outside of that, yeah, I do not give a fuck. Thus, the honest opinion.

Pretty much agree with this.

Perhaps we are defining personal issues differently. Also, I think that more important than
the posting of the issues is the way one responds to the desired advice and criticism.

IMO, if you share your advice, and the person doesn't want/like it, move on. You've shared your advice, it's not wanted/liked, there's no advantage to turning into a flame war, fight, whatever.

But, that is why we have private messaging and visitor walls. If I wanted to communicate with somebody on a extremely personal level, that would be my outlet. The "don't give a fuck" on the board is how you seek common interest, because people are bluntly honest.

Agreed!

This is a great place to post personal issues when one wants an objective opinion. Many of us have been here for years, we're invested, yet we're all still anonymous and removed from the situation.

Now when an individual becomes and "askhole"=someone that constantly asks for advice but does the exact opposite everytime, then that gets very annoying due to the fact that we are a close knit group that does care about the welfare of our group members.

I've posted personal threads and learned a WHOLE lot from it. I even had people PM me to give me their sage advice. It was great and helped me see the world in a different light. I owe these individuals that are far wiser than I a great thanks!

And here I thought "AskHole" was a Popeye-ism. ...huh... learn something new everyday
 
If the TMF is more than just a place for fetish kicks and porn; meaning, if it is also a place where the TK community gathers to better understand their TK fetish and its nature among peers and fellow enthusiasts, then I would offer that one's fetish and one's personal life are intrinsically connected. Of course I am not suggesting that we swing from the chandeliers professing our most intimate desires to the world, but rather, if folks are to visit here for camaraderie, then we must accept the person as a whole; warts, pretty toes, acne, and all. Otherwise... the board may as well be one-way blind, and one can fap in one's raincoat anonymously.
 
I consider this a place where alot of us are friends and we share personal issues. i have no problem with someone sharing anything they want. some of us are seeking opinions or advice.
Now since im here, i have this massive whitehead on the tip of my nose. any advice on treating this? :shock2:

Exfoliate! Use something with benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid.

This is true, even though I don't normally do it, I definitely agree that people SHOULD be able to discuss personal issues in the General forum. As long as people understand that by posting, they are opening themselves up to the advice, opinions, and criticism of HUNDREDS of people with all different personalities and whatnot. As long as they're okay with that, then by all means, they should feel free to post personal discussions. Sometimes forums are great for that BECAUSE of the wide variety of responses they'll get.
 
People come here to beat off, predominantly. Don't ruin their boners with your crying. That's just rude.

But to be honest, personal stuff should be posted in a blog. I understand maybe posting something personal if you want feedback or advice, but making a habit of it and posting every time something happens and then arguing with the sound advice you asked for? That's retarded and eventually people are going to get sick of hosting your pity parties.

I understand we're all sensitive people (heh,heh) but they really should change that rule to say "You must be 18 or over, both mentally and chronologically."
 
There are all kinds of people out there. I bet SOMEONE is punching the clown to another's strife.

Sae's Guide to Effective Oversharing

Let's write an overshare using three easy steps.

My late husband found making me cry a turn on. the share.
I,always imagined people with this sort of fetish, a dying breed. basic idea, purpose of share
well, now they're one less. He is wormfood. a call to the reader's baser emotions, whether anger or humor. The reader now has a vested interest in the share, even if momentarily.

Follow these three simple rules for effective sharing and I will personally guarantee an exponential growth in fucks given.... Or your money back.

Yes! Of couse. All overshares are made as eye candy to bait the blaise one handed typer on a mission for major boobage. If we were posting on a forum dedicated to Fiscal trends, we could ultimately assume the average reader is already interested in the content, but here... Its war man, WAR! we have to convince the readers to reply emphatically, even with the "sticky hand".
