Insight it great. However, If a newb starts to explain to a provider how her screening methods are shit and don't assure her safety, that won't get him very far.
It could even be good advise. She will still just feel he is being an asshole.

I like B3. Heck I sincerely hope to meet up with her someday and I can certainly understand her and Nicole's perspective regarding their personal safety. But I really don't care for the way she seems to be dismissing the concern from the male perspective. I understand that B3 is reputable. That is however BY FAR the exception, not the rule, and does not mean that it is safe in general to give out your RWI to providers.
Hopefully someday P411 will open up to new members. Until then my advice to newbs? Be patient, think with the big head, and find a newbie friendly provider. Maybe start with FBSM or stick with AMPs. But do not give your RWI without carefully considering the person with whom you are sharing it.
