1) How did you find out about TFP, when you first joined? Did you lurk for a while, or jump right in with posting? What helped you open up and start posting?
I actually found the TFP when I was looking for information about being too wet and how to give better oral sex. I didn't bother lurking past reading to find the appropriate threads and by posting first in the Ladies Lounge (if I remember right) I felt a little more safe.
2) From the beginning, how did you feel about the porn aspect of the board? (And the fact that as a result, there are far more male than female members here)? Has that ever made you hesitant to post more often here?
I've never minded the porn aspect. It hasn't made me feel hesitant at all to post because the members that I appreciate are the ones that post. The guys who are here for the titty boards tend to stay to themselves. The ratio doesn't bother me. It's the quality of the members that contribute that make me stick around, not the gender.
And sometimes I need a little porn. So it helps to have it floating around without too much effort.
3) What kind of "female" board topics/forums might encourage you to post more often, if you could vote for something? (E.g. a "wedding" forum, or something for parenting, or any other topic that might be interesting to you?)
I can't really think of anything. I'm not into weddings, not going to have kids, etc. I'm good.
4) Can you think of anything we might be able to change on the boards, to make it more appealing to potential new members? What is it about TFP that has made you stick around this long?
Positive feedback and participation in threads that are interesting (or goofy when I'm feeling nonsense-y), pertinent to my life and about people that I can relate to or be more open-minded about is/are what makes me stick around. Keeping that up will always encourage new members to stay put, in my opinion. And also the way that the members that were non-conducive to keeping a respectful atmosphere have been handled. THAT I appreciate, especially as a female member.
I already feel that the women around here do have a very strong voice. Just keep it up.
