Who feels comfortable using social media with your femme persona? Do you feel comfortable inviting others here to friend you online outside CDH? How do you present in that forum? CD? Female?

I used to embrace it! I used to have a you tube channel, twitter, instagram, blehh blehhh ..ughh! It all got to be too much. I no longer wanted to scroll through 1,000 comments every few days, weed out the freaks, the trolls etc. etc. I enjoyed posting cute videos of playing violin music, or posting pictures of new clothes, sure! But now, I’ve reduced it to this because it’s the one and only denominator I actually really care about and connect with.

I, for one, am in the minority. Back when Facebook was getting started, friends said I need to get me a page and start blogging, or whatever it is called, so I went and took a look. I found it different from most sites I had checked out in that you HAD to register an account to even check it out. Okay, so I did that with my boy name. I spent a little while looking around, but did not do anything of note. I checked the site about a week later, and saw I had actually about 70 or so friendship requests. Two were actually people I had told I set up the account. Without exception, all of the rest were people I did not know from Adam, or they were from high school acquaintances that either gave me grief and trouble back then, or who wouldn’t have given me the time of day. It made me think, how fake is this, really? Was it a competition, as I had overheard people mentioning that they had friends numbering in the hundreds.
I really began to question the whole thing. Had these people actually met and shook hands, first bumped or possibly even hugged. NO they hadn’t when I began asking some of them. It was just a numbers hunt, to me anyway. I haven’t opened that account for many years, but it is still there because I get emails from it saying I have ‘X’ number of friendship requests pending, and the number just keeps going. And I have never joined twitter or any other of the social media censorship groups.
All of my online contacts are through sites like CDH or hobby groups and such. I am known only by my female self in these groups and am happy to be in them. Both my online and in-person friends know how to get in touch with me, so the social media isn’t really needed.

Thought about doing this, but not sure I will.

This is the only social media I do,in femme or drab. Dont have the time or the inclination for anything else, and, besides, nothing is real there from what I understand
