Topic Catagories

[switch]

"Finding Others", "Relationships" and "Beginnings" are not just Femdom topics and we haven't really been been discussing in a Femdom only context.  Could we have a main heading for "Psychology" that would include the "Relationship" and "Finding Others" "Beginnings", and the "Psychology of BDSM" sections? A section on the BDSM scene might fit there too.   It would make those of outside Femdom feel more at home.

"Finding Others", "Relationships" and "Beginnings" are not just Femdom topics

Right.

I did it that way because I have sites that match those topics.

I'm very strongly inclined to do just that. Be nice if some of the other folks would express an opinion.

It doesn't much matter to me; I read them regardless of their category.

I got one PM from a woman who suggested that is we made the relationship catagories general we might inhibit male subs.  It doesn't seem to bother you  or Roo Roo, but I thought I'd pass the idea also.

I will say that it took me awhile to participate in Relationships section because I am neither a female dom nor a male sub.

I'm going to ignore any feedback that doesn't appear here unless it is from one of the other Moderators.

A man who is inhibited by such a mix is likely to be too inhibited to post anyway.

thats an agreeing eye roll by the way.  I like the idea of the relationships forum covering any and all relationships

My contribution to the question in this topic:
I don't care how the categories are called. As long as from the content of the discussions it continues to be clear for people reading this forum that this is a discussion forum where men are actually welcome to write about their experiences with submission (and I have seen discussion forums where this is not the case). Which, considering the people who founded and run the forum, I expect will continue to be the case, no matter how the categories are named.

I don't know if you mean the PM I sent you. But if you do, you misunderstood or misquoted my words.
This is what I wrote:

"Hello switch,
I just read that you would like to read more contributions from other non-F/m relationships, and are also interested in information about polyamory.
If you are interested, in addition to fetishlore, you might also enjoy the discussion forum on mydungeonspace. I participate on multiple forums and each is different. Personally I am very happy that fetishlore is a forum where men actually feel comfortable about writing their experiences with submission; which is sadly not the case on all BDSM forums I can assure you."

If I send you a message, be it a pointer to additional information sources online, or an invitation to join a discussion forum I also like, and you are not sure what I mean, you are always welcome to ask me back.
If you are referring to my PM: I do not appreciate being misquoted. But you are possibly referring to something completely different anyway?

When I have contributions to a discussion, I post them myself.

No, didn't mean you Ranai and I didn't "quote" anyone.
