If you want to keep in touch outside of chat, use throwaway instant messenger (Skype, etc) accounts so you aren't losing much if the account is compromised or you acquire a stalker and have to get rid of the account.
This chat room is meant to be a welcoming and inclusive environment for people in all positions along the spectra of gender and sexuality. Whether lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer or questioning, intersex, agender, asexual, or if you don't even have the words to describe your identity or don't know what it is yet, there's a place for you here. Remain respectful of others' identities while you chat here, whatever they may be.
