Status: offline 		Admittedly, this is a rip off of Califchick's thread regarding posting about a person's SO on the boards of CM.  However, there has been a lot of mention on recent threads about how much of a person's life one is willing to put up on the boards for the world to see.  Ergo, I thought it was worth a poll.

The question of the poll is in relation to how much of your real life, meaning the one away from the computer, do you post to the CM population?  To make matters easier, I'm asking the question on a scale of 1-10.  One being you post very minimally about real life and experiences.  Ten being you post anything and everything about your version of BDSM.

Status: offline 		I marked about half. I'm willing to share, quite openly, the things of my past and the mistakes I've made. I'm also willing to share what works in my personal relationship with Himself .. to a point. I don't do scene reports or things like that and I generally try not to get involved in train wrecks or cause them. Also, I don't have a lot of dirty laundry that I could share, but what I do have goes into my own washing machine and isn't for generic board consumption.

Status: offline 		I'd say it's about 50% for me.  I actually try to post to certain topics without referencing my own experiences, but I find it very difficult to do that sometimes. 
Most often, I find it easier to make a point by referencing something that I have experienced along the lines of whatever the topic is, and most of the time, I don't feel uncomfortable with that.
If I think my own personal experience with something in particular is too personal to share, I'll often skip the thread altogether, because I can't find a way to say what I want to say without sharing it.

Watching someone pour their hearts out to strangers on a message board......it's like watching a gazelle inviting lions to bite its head off. It's quite sad really, because some of these people are obviously crying out for a place in the world, only to be taken apart by the bullies.

Status: offline 		As I stated in Cali's thread, I do post about my relationship with Master, especially because that is the filter through which I experience this lifestyle.
 
I have posted other aspects of my life online- non-specific struggles and triumphs with the ums; fallout from my ex's death; many, many light moments stemming from my perverse mind......
 
After a bit, an online community becomes just as legitimate a support/friend network as any casual real world one- like work friends or a church/synagogue group. You have to choose minute by minute just how much disclosure you want. And, like those groups, there will be people who are quite private and others you wish would show more discretion.
 
It all makes the world go round.

Status: offline 		Only what is applicable. I also keep in mind that I only put out here, the information I am comfortable with everyone knowing.

Most of my current personal stuff, stays personal. The past, most of it, I don't care who knows. It's gone and done, if someone can benefit from my old garbage they are welcome to it.

Also, most of the details of my life now are pretty damned boring. They don't make for continued readership. Any relationship stuff is not for mass consumption. After all, no one wants to hear about an all woman orgy at the farm on Saturday night.......... how boring is that?

Status: offline 		That is hard for me to answer. When responding to a post, my words come from my own experience or observations of things so naturally my offline world gets mixed in to my answers or questions. Some things I won't mention. Precise town, my full name etc. Other stuff... well yes I do mention it. If someone was curious and persistant enough to comb through every word I've posted they may be able to get a bit closer to my offline world.There is nothing I need to protect aside from myself though. Crapola, I am totally not sure of the coherency of the above. Tis a heavy duty med day, which is also the type of day where I tend to be more open about myself. So I couldnt tick a box because I can't figure out where to draw the line between sharing feelings/experiences and saying too much. Does that make sense?

This modern roman games habit of exposing one's personal life for strangers to dissect makes me cringe.

Status: offline 		I checked off majority of the time. In the serious section, most of my responses are based upon either my real time experiences or some event that I had gone through and thus I'll present it as a matter of opinion. I won't be an open book as I feel there are certain areas of my own life that I prefer to keep private for various reasons.
