Community guidelines
Challenge the claim. Protect the person.
No framework is exempt
Challenge this website's First Cause, Second Cause and every other proposed lens. Distinguish evidence from interpretation and lived experience. Give reasons, compare sources and say what could change your mind.
Concrete boundaries
- No doxxing, private contact details, names that expose someone, identifying photographs or clues intended to reveal an identity.
- No targeted harassment, threats, intimidation, dehumanisation or encouragement of harm.
- No coercive proselytizing or pressure to adopt, abandon or disclose beliefs.
- No blanket accusations against religions or families. Examine documented conduct, incentives and outcomes without inventing motives.
- No spam, deceptive impersonation or promotion. Do not repost rejected content to evade review.
Review before publication
All comments, topics and replies begin pending. Drafts are visible only to their author. Approved contributions may be hidden or removed if a safety concern arises. Edits remove approved content from view and return it to review. A moderation decision protects the conversation; it is not a verdict on truth.
Reports and escalation
Verified members can send private reports on approved content and flag identity exposure or threats for escalation. Reports are not a real-time emergency service. Moderators see the report and record reasons for their decisions. Threats or immediate danger require local emergency help, not waiting for a forum response.
Belonging does not require disclosure
Read anonymously if that is safer. Do not reveal a transition if it could jeopardise housing, employment, family relationships or safety. This is an educational space, not a substitute for professional support.
