    I did that once and this guy got super mad at me. I mean I think if I showed him my vagina that gives me the right to call him by his given name right?

    Real Names Sometimes Screen Names.

    I use their screen names because most of them I don't know their real names.

    I don't think my contacts even know my real name, but I have a contact named Dan that I call Kitty. And his screen name is Frosty....but, I don't think he minds...he hasn't said anything... :tears up: Oh, no! Poor Kitty probably hates me now!

    I only know a few of my contact's real names. I feel embarrassed to ask "Hey what's your name by the way?" after I've known them for over a year (and stripped for them)

    I do not use real names on here. I refuse to give the trolls any more information than necessary.

    All except for one, I'm sure probably prefers anonymity, so I just use their screen names.
