Just wonderin'
Are any of the commentator's here medical professionals who are qualified to make medical statements? Or is everyone just stating opinions or anecdotal statements? I know I am (not a medical person), that's why I made sure my posts clearly state they are just my opinion. Some clarity would be welcome so I can weight each side's arguments accordingly.
My concern is that if this is so serious a matter as a file causing an actual mental illness, my take is that perhaps this site should be a 'membership only closed' site. This is because all the files here could be said to cause some degree of mental instability by a <quote>normal <unquote> person, with out any fetishes, who stumbles upon the site and does not take heed of the name of the site and it's intended audience of fetishists. Heck, by definition we fetishists are out of the ordinary - some would call us mentally challenged already, lol.
(And lest we not forget those files that make one want to go have unprotected sex with the homeless, or sleazy strangers one meets at sleazy bars or bookstores - those files exist on this site and truly do present a clear medical risk - sexually transmitted diseases are a real danger. Why is no one complaining about them? I won't - because I am an adult who understands the risk, and those files are part of my fetish - I listen to them occasionally as they are a fun fantasy to me.)
My current understanding is that the site is supposed to be a nonjudgmental place where adult fetishists can come and have fun, i.e. different strokes for different folks. My feeling is most everyone here is an adult, or should be, and unless the site management takes a file down because there is a factual, reasonable chance of a serious medical issue, then a warning or 2 about a file is not out of line, but constantly railing against a file one does not like is quite off putting. And taking it too lightly and not understanding the possible risks if it is actually dangerous is also disquieting
JMHO Cheers! :D
