Hi, I've been thinking about joining this forum for awhile and finally decided to tonight. I like how open this forum is to a wide range of discussions, many of which are considered over the line by other forums. I was hoping to have a more detailed discussion on one of the two forums that I often frequent, but I couldn't give a specific enough response without "crossing their line". I am happy to be a part of HIP and wish I had joined sooner. It is good to be a part of a forum that lets you speak your mind, rather than the typical one which censors too much. You can say most things you want to say here so long as you are respectful in doing so. I would assume that most if not all of the members are adults here and can handle even discussions that would be taboo in many other places. As for me, one of the reasons I joined is because I wanted to have a place where I could openly discuss my sexuality and get honest and helpful answers about that. And yet this forum is so much more than just a place to discuss challenging personal issues such as this. I look forward to getting to know more people and participating in the broad range of discussion available here! Best, Chris
