    Closeted people i mean, i always leave the window open while i get a drink or go to the toilet or something (Sometimes intentionally, sometimes not) and my mum must have seen it - or atleast the big "EMPTY CLOSETS" at the top of the website.....what are the chances she doesnt know what that means? =/

    well everyone i know , knows about thsi site (most of my conversation starters start with "At EC..." or as to where i heard something "someone posted it on EC..." lol
    but like my mom told be she didnt know rainbows meant gay and when she bought me rainbow 'pride' shirt she didn't think anyone would know what it meant. this shocked me as she's smart and up to date.

    This is one of those times when I'm glad my father is super-slow at picking this up.

    I was watching "Another Gay Movie" and also checking this site a few days ago. When he got home, it took me a minute to notice he was coming in and I only had time to pause the movie and shut the laptop. OR SO I THOUGHT. I left the office to get a drink and the computer starts making... sounds... from the movie. And they didn't sound fabulous out of context. (Or even in.) So dad opened the laptop and I had a Word program opened over both the movie and this site. When he asked what the movie and the site were, I explained the movie was some joke site a friend sent and EC was a pop-up add. And he believed it! Phew!

    I'm a twin, too . . . lol

    Anyway, I'm in the closet and I haven't been "caught" on EC, mainly because I live at boarding school and when my roommates are in the room I'm usually on my loft bed with my laptop where no one can see my screen except me (like right now).

    Since I'm not out to most people I always close EC when I'm not at my desk...
    And I have to be really careful when my roommate is around because I don't want him to see that I'm posting in threads like "penises" or "how do I shave my butt?" or "first gay memory?" :lol:

    So I haven't been 'caught' yet but it would be funny if someone saw me browsing EC and asked "hmm what are you doing on a gay forum?? are you gay or what??" :lol: I think I'd just answer 'Yes I am!!!", that would make coming out so much easier :icon_bigg

    Not really. Sometimes my mom just walks up to me to ask me something and she looks at the screen but doesn't say anything. I don't think that she knows and I wouldn't mind if she did.

    No, no, I got caught once on the homepage of ### though - but my sister already knew.

    For the unknowing, it's covered in porn.
     
  11. I've never been caught but I'm, like, paranoid of this happening, so I always make sure to minimize the window before I leave the room.

    I haven't been "caught" persay. But I will be on it when my roommate is in the room. She could see it if she wanted to, but I think people on the whole are not very observant. I think most of us are more paranoid about people seeing things, when in actuality we are giving them more credit (in terms of observational skills) than they deserve.

    That being said, I don't leave EC up on my computer when I'm not sitting there, or if I do I look my computer screen so it goes to a blank image of my desktop and only I can unlock it b/c only I have the password.

    I know what u mean the big EMPTY CLOSETS really draws the eye and attention.
    lol most of the time I can't even bother minimizing it if my sis is around, see I'm always on myspace 2 so she just must think its a weird locking profile... well I think its okay when ur not scrolling past people who's comment have shirtless guys as the avatar . :grin:

    I've never been caught. If someone's coming I usually minimize the page and cover it up with the little right click menu.

    I've never been caught, people know not to touch my computer or i'll bite their heads off :slight_smile: . A part of me wants someone to look and see it when i'm away from it, then they will be the one thinking "WTF?" and run away scared :grin:. I don't think they'd have the balls to mention it because then i'd know they went snooping :badgrin: .

    Haha, people know not to touch my computer, too . . . one time I came back from break and had it unlocked (I unlocked it during the break and forgot to relock it). I left to go work out at the gym and my roommate decided to go on my computer and open it up to some wikipedia page of a lesbian porn star but I forgot my uni ID card so I came back and caught him red-handed! lol

    So he doesn't touch my computer anymore.
