Who are we What we do and How you can join us

[GSA Forum Administrator]

The GSA forum is an interactive community with people all over the world who have been touched by Genetic Sexual Attraction in some way

 

 Since there has been a general disinterest when it comes to conducting formal research, www.geneticsexualattraction.com has been built on the aggregated knowledge shared between thousands of people,the world over a 10 year period. In response to their need ,we were forced to research and analyze after noticing some re occurring commonalities with people who have had to endure this largely unsupported!

.

Thus, this  forum functions as a peer support group, including; daughters, sisters, brothers, sons, mothers, fathers, wives, husbands and friends who have encountered GSA in their life.

 

The forum allows others to read about other’s stories, share their own stories, ask questions, and receive support. Here, people can get the support they need personally to navigate through GSA.

The GSA forum has several features that aim to bring a quality experience to the online world of forums.

The forum has experts, all of whom have proven to be stable supportive people whose advice will not be rash or unhelpful. The moderators have all survived GSA in some form or another, and carry a common vision to promote a site that is JUDGMENT free-aiming simply to be a place of sustenance to anyone in the whirlwind of GSA. The forum also has a wide range of members who are either at the beginning stages of their GSA journey in the middle or at the end.

The GSA Forum is a private forum.

Any casual Internet viewer who stumbles on our site will not be able to see any of the posts and threads. Only users who have subscribed (or paid) for a year have access to the forum.

Users can remain completely anonymous

sharing no personal information or even an email address.

 

Guests can only see part of the forum. Paid users have access to the whole forum, including  personal stories, individual support, posting rights

WHY IS THERE A COST TO JOIN ?

 

The Genetic Sexual Attraction Forum has been online for over 10 years.During that time,due to the extremely sensitive subject matter we have had many perverse people 

trolling the site and disturbing the mood, and unsettling our members.

 

Thus work for the moderators became burdensome, since they are here on a voluntary basis too much time was being taken deleting , banning and blocking ip addresses.

 

For this reason we looked into a paid software that would help make this site safe from the prying eyes of a general public who are quick to judge a phenomena that is misunderstood.

 

Charging a years subscription, helps up maintain the software, host the site and streamlines our administrative duties by ensuring only genuine people see and participate in the forum.

 

We are very strict in our guidelines because our duty is to serve and protect our members.
