I'ts not like I spend all day online, but when I do I find it easier to engage people (forums, I don't chat) without the same worry of acceptance. Sure, I second guess myself and worry if I've made people angry but there is less of myself invested of myself in such environments. No one is going to complain how I'm dressed, comment on my hair, think I'm overweight and I generally don't have to worry about hurling words of abuse.
