Greetings.

 

As I recently scanned the site- as a prospective new member (now a member), I noticed and compared the following two sections, that the second had an incorrect/hurtful “term”:

 

A) About/Participation Guidelines and Community Standards, Community Standards item: 1, ... “sexual orientation” ➡️ acceptable term

 

B) About/Code of Conduct, section: Non-Exploiting, ...”sexual preference” ➡️ non-acceptable term

 

Hence, I respectfully ask that “sexual preference” be edited to reflect “sexual orientation.”

 

Thank you kindly,

 

Brian

Hi Brian. Thanks for pointing this out. I've updated the term to "sexual orientation" as you suggested.
