Rules and Obligations of Membership
Rule Two: Confidentiality
All communications within the group must be kept strictly confidential. Unless you have obtained express permission of the author, you may not forward, discuss, or summarize messages here with anyone who is not a member of the list, including spouses or other family members. That is the only way this group can remain a haven where people can feel safe and free to be open with others in the group without fear of unwanted disclosure.
For the Spouses and Friends and Family groups: When discussing your questions, feelings, and experiences, we remind you to please be mindful of stated desired privacy and anonymity of those loved ones for whom you are seeking support. Many men and women who experience homosexual attraction also experience high levels of anxiety about their feelings being known to others. As such, we encourage sensitivity to those feelings and to maintain the level of confidentiality and anonymity for your loved ones that they wish to maintain for themselves.
