People on this forum have slagged off the radicals who have doxxed and issied death threats to JK Rowling, why would a member of the public who have attended a functiob open themselves up the that level of abuse from the baying.mob. I'm not racist, I'm quite proud to say I'm very left leaning but I would be dubious to open my life, and my familes to that level of digging for someone I'd met at a function. Are you saying you'd risk yours and your families online / real life safety for a stranger?

And that’s exactly where a lot of entitled people with little understanding of conversational/social boundaries (and the average male by his very nature has a harder time understanding the nuances of propriety and where the line has to be drawn between small-talk banter and what’s really quite personal than the average woman but both sexes can overall be bad for it) feel victimised whenever someone sets a boundary with them or makes it clear that they’re not comfortable going that deep into their background or story for the sake of someone they don’t know from a can of carnation milk and probably trust even less. Unless you’re providing a service for them no-one owes a stranger anything beyond stock cordiality and respect. Absolutely nothing.
