The SHOE Lesbian Online Community is probably the safest and most welcoming Social Network for Lesbians. We are a real lesbian community with Body and Soul and the ♥ Heart ♥ in the right place! In order for the community to stay that way, we kindly ask our users to respect some easy and clear rules. We thank you :)

Treat others the same way you want to be treated. Please always remember that the people behind the nicknames are real human beings with real feelings. We encourage a healthy exchange of opinions and disagreements are allowed! By all means challenge an opinion – but please do it respectfully.
