Privacy is your personal preference. That's how you prefer to do it. What do you think would happen if you posted more or revealed more about yourself here?
In person, I am incredibly open about a lot. The internet, for some reason, gives people freedom to do things and say things that in person would not be socially acceptable. People don't have the same respect for bundaries.
So if I posted pictures....I'd probably get cawk pics. No thanks. If I posted more about my life, maybe I'd get calls at work. If I gave out my number, it would probably end up on craigslist in a prank. If i wanted to meet someone and I talked about it here, I'd probably catch a lot of shit from people who I don't think have any right to have an opinion about my love life. Instead of taking any chances on that kind of bs, I keep certain things to myself.
I'm with you in the "to each their own" attitude and I'm not saying one way is wrong and the other is right....just saying personally one is wrong for me, so it's hard for me to understand the other way of going about things.
The kind of shit you and chris have taken? I'd just as soon not expose myself to that because as long as I don't throw it out into open forum, I can drop the hammer when people step where they are not invited.
Again, let me be clear....I'm just speaking from how I operate, and what's right for me.
