Make the space safer after you leave it.

1. Speak to people, not at categories

Women, LGBTQIA+ people, and men are not single stories. Avoid stereotypes, dehumanizing language, jokes that depend on humiliation, and claims that erase another person’s lived experience.

2. Respect identity and privacy

• Use the name and pronouns a person asks you to use.
• Do not reveal another person’s sexuality, gender identity, health information, address, contact details, or private story.
• Do not post screenshots or private messages without permission.
• Do not pressure anyone to come out, explain trauma, or prove an identity.

3. Disagree without becoming cruel

Questions, correction, and disagreement are allowed. Personal attacks, dogpiling, stalking, threats, slurs, sexual harassment, intimidation, and repeated unwanted contact are not.

4. Protect people in vulnerable moments

Do not romanticize self-harm, suicide, abuse, eating disorders, substance misuse, or violence. Do not provide methods, challenges, or instructions that increase danger. Encourage immediate professional or emergency help when someone may be at risk.

5. Health information needs care

Personal experience may be shared as personal experience. Do not diagnose strangers, promise cures, discourage prescribed treatment, or present unverified claims as medical fact. Emergency contacts and licensed professionals should take priority when the situation is urgent or complex.

6. No exploitation or solicitation

Spam, scams, unauthorized fundraising, recruitment into harmful groups, sexual exploitation, coercive sales, phishing, and requests for passwords or financial credentials are prohibited.

7. Content that may not be published

• Hate speech or targeted degradation.
• Threats, graphic violence, or instructions for harm.
• Private or identifying information.
• False emergency or health claims.
• Copyrighted material submitted without permission.
• Repeated promotional content unrelated to the community.
• Posts that create a credible safety, legal, or privacy risk.

8. Moderation process

Community submissions begin as pending. A moderator or administrator may publish, reject, or request changes. A review note may explain what needs attention. Approval is not endorsement of every opinion, and publication may be reversed when new safety or accuracy concerns appear.

9. Account action

Minor problems may lead to a reminder or request for changes. Repeated or serious violations may lead to content removal, suspension, or account closure. Immediate action may be taken for threats, exploitation, privacy violations, security attacks, or attempts to evade moderation.

10. Report a concern

Email withlovefmb@gmail.com with the subject “Community Safety Concern.” Include the public post, date, and reason for concern. For immediate danger, contact emergency services instead of waiting for website moderation.
