Hi all, just about to delete my account and wondered why people stick around?
The people on this forum although i dont know any of them personally i feel like they are friends to me! I feel like i can reach out at any time and find the advice i am looking for relating to sex or even if i just need to vent if i am having a bad day!
Because weāre a great community, lots of advice, support and knowledge.
Bye, if its not for you, its not for you ā¦
@PaulintheUK It might be interesting to understand why you are feeling disgruntled and thinking of leaving the forum.
Personally I find it, non-judgmental, friendly and full of useful advice, that I wouldnāt be able to, nor want to discuss with people that I am close to.
To throw a question back to you, why do you feel the need to delete your account after 3 days?
Personally i find this forum friendly, inclusive, caring, helpful and positive, and have made some great virtual friends here.
Because for me personally, I donāt feel judged, I can be myself and donāt have to hide my kinks and fantasies. I can seek advice if I need it.
And not only sexual side, but just normal day to day interactions, or if I need to vent about anything Iāve got a safe place to do that. Itās a positive place with lovely people.
Ifās itās not for you, itās not for you. So why does it matter if other members feel differently
We canāt all like the same thingā¦if itās not what you thought it was and itās not for youā¦then at least you had a browse and killed your curiosity.

To throw another question, why the need to tell everyone? If you donāt like it on here just go.
I love it here because itās a positive, welcoming, supportive and inclusive place.
As I mentioned I was interested to see what people liked, good to hear the other side
As for why Iāve decided itās not for me, itās really just a feeling, some of the posts have made me a little uncomfortable, especially as there is no proof of age required to join.
Also I do find the ānipple ruleā odd lol You can see them on M&S website (bought wife some new sets) and you canāt here, though you can have discussions on cutting and fistingā¦ just seems weird!! It was interesting and I wish everybody well for the future!
Each to their own
Look after yourself and stay happy
Why do we stay because this forum is unlike the hundreds of sex forums. You can be sure this is a safe place where you wonāt feel humiliated of your different kinks. Itās more than a forum itās a home for all, if you are feeling upset there is a dedicated thread for people to try to cheer you up.
I love that even when Iāve been absent from the forum, I can come back and be welcomed with open arms. A very accepting, open and friendly place that also allows me to indulge in all the filth Iām into.
@PaulintheUK in reference to the no nippples rule, there are plenty of people who feel the same as you about this and there is quite a lengthy discussion of it in the Emily Clarkson campaigns to āfree the nippleā. Sponsored by Lovehoney. Hypocritical? thread. Please, you and others who havenāt seen it, have a read, it goes into full details of why male nipples are banned on this forum. Essentially though, itās a statement against gender bias. If the internet rules change and female nipples are no longer classed as pornagraphic by search engines, hopefully all nipples will be free to be seen on the forum if their owners so desire.
As to why I stick aroundā¦ itās an extremely friendly forum where Iām free to discuss anything I wish, sex or absolutely non sex related, with non judgemental people. Ive been around long enough that I feel I know some of the regulars pretty well and a chat is always a little boost if youāre feeling down. Any topics Iām not into I donāt have to participte in and even on slightly worrying queries, I think the advice offered by forum members is generally very sensible and helpful. The rules against inappropriate posts and no flirting make it feel a much safer forum to participate in to me, as people here only for sexual thrills tend not to stick around. It wonāt be for everyone and thatās fine but it definitely works for me.
I was a slow burner to appreciating LH forum. Itās not life or death for me but valuable.
Why ask the community why to stay?
I joined for the sames reasons mentioned. I feel comfort in talking with like minded people. To know Iām not the only freak on this planet makes me feel good
@PaulintheUK if you ultimately do decide that the forum isnāt for you and leave, then at least you have given it a go and youād always be welcome in the future.
The forum is admirably moderated by Brenna and forum members. Discussions never include mentions of sexual activity before the age of eighteen.
Honestly I like it. Itās a bit more diverse than the discord conversations of my local kink groups. Like how here you have all walks of life from kinksters to swingers, to single people, to retirees, to new adults.
You also get people from all over the world.
If thatās not for you thatās fine, no need to announce it to the world.
Why do I like this forum? Lots of reasons, but above all: feeling like I am among like-minded friends who realise that keeping an open mind and sharing advice about sex will add more joy to the world, at no-one elseās expense. That has to be a good thing, and most of us are proud to be a part of it.
