[SNIP]
So I put the question to you all, dear fellow manager/moderators, and to you
as well, dear contributors: Should we make the archives private?

Personally - since my wife and I are both open and out about being Poly - I don't really care.

Having stated that - and knowing the dark side of human nature - I can see where someone might
use this type of information in a damaging and demeaning way against another since we do live
in a sex-negative culture.

If privacy fosters open, honest and straightforward communications then I am for it...
