I have made sure that family, friends and work colleagues know that I go online to 'hook up' with guys for casual sex. They do not know details - that's my business.
How do others feel about the issue of secrecy/openness? |

I chose to do that so they don't get any 'nasty' surprises. I would rather they found out from me.
And they were all cool about it. It just simply is not an issue.
That said, I am not sure, were my parents still alive, I could have been so open with them. |

I think / hope that I am open enough with others that nothing could back to bite me on the bum, whilst at the same time not providing them with the finer details of the mechanics of what I do and who I choose to meet.
I have been more patently frank with two people and if they do ever want to know the mechanics, I would gladly discuss that with them, but not the who's or the when's.
In all honesty, I have never had anyone shocked or outraged by it as I do not allow it to impinge or directly affect anyone elses life other than my own and those I choose to meet. |

My daughter knows a fair bit. But she is 30 now and an open-minded woman. Turns out I was right to tell her as she admitted having signed up to some sites herself - though not this one. So I can chat with her and, hopefully, give her some useful advice. |

I know. We are very close. More like friends now. We've been through a lot together. There are a lot of kinky details I would not share with her though. |

How do others feel about the issue of secrecy/openness?"
How much I have in the bank: my business.
How much I earn: my business.
How many times I open my bowels: my business.
How I conduct my personal life: my business.
I don't see any reason to explain or justify who, what or where to anybody. I personally don't see why others feel the need to share - but to each their own. |

I didn't say justify. I said I was open. People know you have a bank account but not the details. I would rather family had some knowledge. That way no one can hurt them with the information. Having read what some people have said on here it clearly does happen.
Besides I feel I have nothing to hide but that is my choice. I entirely understand why people want their privacy. |

Some of my friends know and seem cool about it. They ask me questions about the scene and clubs etc.
My sister who lives down the road knows and my dad knows I go off out and about a lot lol he makes sure I tell my sister where I'm going etc.
I don't se the need to shout about it. My friends only know cos one of them saw fab on my phone |

I don't shout about it at all. I just made sure they were informed. Other than that it is just not mentioned in the main. |

My mum and bro do not know, however they live in a different continent and U don't see them often.
Close friends and colleagues know, not the details, of course, as I don't want them to worry about me.

I think the OP is brave for letting people know; many would be judgmental. I however, would never tell anyone close to me. But that's just due to my occupation. I couldn't risk anyone finding out |

Most people in my life know. I am not ashamed and don't see anything wrong with it. So they know. Although the choice was taken away from me when someone outed me.

A couple of very close friends know about my Fab side, one of them always has the details of any meets I arrange, had what could have turned out to be a scary meet when I first joined, so for me it's about safety. |

I have no reason or need to want to tell anyone about what we do with our sex lives,the same as I don't need to know about anyone elses
I do understand that if I was a single female that there would have to be one person if not from real life then from fab life that id like to be able to tell where I was going to and who with,purely from a safety perspective |

That is what I wanted to avoid hence the reason for my openness. |
