We're in the slow process of merging our online identity which is known to be plural, with the one that isn't. The first step was last year, when we came out to the inner circle of friends. That part was fairly well-recieved. Now, we're thinking about moving the knowledge boundary out to our not-so-close friends, and the general online population. It's an easier decision, in many ways, because we maintain separation between our online and offline lives. The question is how to do so. What suggestions do you have for coming out to people when you don't have a good idea of how they'll respond?

I am not a multiple, but I have a question. Please forgive me if I sound ignorant. 

If one of your people? commits a crime or does something that the majority of you cannot stand for, what happens? Can you "kick them out" so to speak? Or how would you handle it?

Today was "dissociative disorders" day in our abnormal psych. class..

The professor introduced DID with a case study of the only multiple system she'd ever worked with, and commented that we're "as rare as hens' teeth". She described stuff with the classic textbook trauma framework, integration, etc. She only got about halfway through, since she ran out of time. She's got a habit of that, since she's enthusiastic about psychology as a whole.

So after class, I wrote her an e-mail: ( Text in here. )

A few hours later I got an e-mail (timestamped at the end of her office hours) that read "Too cool!!!!!!"

I do think I've managed to expand someones' horizons today. :)
