I often wonder how many people around the world are actually into feedism.
When I look at my message history here and on feabie and Kik and shit plus on previous accounts I’ve had conversations with maybe 500 people.
I’d say roughly 90% have deleted their accounts, whilst 6% are just inactive and 2% come online irregularly and the remaining 2% seem to still be active in the community.
That’s not an exaggeration at all by the way
It makes me a bit sad to think how many hundreds of thousands, or maybe millions of people are suppressing this kink, people who could be connecting with others and potentially enjoying it in a measured way.
There’s a whole range of reasons for leaving which I don’t need to go into but it just hit me because I was chatting to someone who seemed to have a very grounded take on this fetish and they told me “don’t worry I know how to balance this fetish with my life and I’m not going anywhere” abs sure enough they just deleted their account.
It makes me question why I should bother connecting with anyone who isn’t local (even then they usually leave before I can connect with them)
Do you feel like anything could be done to encourage users to stick around? Maybe being harsher on users who have been reported for harrassment? Maybe more of us have to reach out to people and chat more genuinely about how they’re going? Maybe you should have to earn the privilege to message people? Or maybe this is just how it is.
