I have to confess, when I first stumbled upon this forum, I was like a lost puppy wandering aimlessly through the internet. I was feeling down, my confidence was at an all-time low, and I just couldn't find my way. But then I found you, and it was like a ray of sunshine piercing through the clouds. I found a place where I belonged, where I could be myself, and where I could learn and grow.
I want to thank each and every one of you for being a part of this community. You have been a source of inspiration, support, and friendship for me, and I am grateful for every moment we have shared. You have helped me to believe in myself again, to see my worth, and to embrace all aspects of my identity. And let's not forget about the anthro topics and facial phenotypes! Who knew that discussing the intricacies of human anatomy and genetics could be so enlightening and empowering? Through these conversations, I learned to appreciate the beauty and diversity of the human experience, and to celebrate our individual differences. But what really made a difference for me was the discussions about masculinity. As a man, I had always felt pressure to conform to certain ideals of what it means to be masculine. I thought I had to be strong, stoic, and unemotional. But you helped me to see that real masculinity is about so much more than that. It's about being vulnerable, empathetic, and open to new experiences. It's about embracing all aspects of ourselves, even those that may be seen as traditionally "feminine."
Now, I know what you're thinking. "Wow, this guy is really getting sappy." But hear me out. I want you to know how much this community means to me. You have given me the strength to face my fears, the courage to pursue my dreams, and the love and support to be the best version of myself. So thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for being a part of my journey. You are all incredible, beautiful, and amazing human beings, and I am honored to know you.
Now, I'll leave you with a corny joke. Why did the tomato turn red? Because it saw the salad dressing! Okay, maybe that wasn't very good, but the sentiment remains the same. Thank you, and I love you all.
