I'm new. I saw that there was a Greetings board or whatever, but when I read a couple threads, people were directing people to appropriate boards to do an intro. So I think this is probably okay? Yell at me if not. I can take it
I was on the Nest another lifetime ago. Never made it over to the baby side. I was kind of looking for a place where I could talk about some of this stuff with people who aren't crazy - or at least are my kind of crazy - and I saw a Jezebel comment that told me that this is what people referring to as The Dark Side, and that seemed like the right place.

I've been performing for just under three years. I was with a troupe doing monthly shows for the first year and a half or so, and left amid some drama. My co-producer and I have done 3 shows under our new banner - 2 plus size only, and most recently, one open to all performers but involving numbers that are about body image or other body issues (we had one about spoon theory and invisible disabilities, for example). It's a fun extension of my theater love, and it's been really freeing personally, especially in terms of sexuality and body image problems.
