About Us

Last updated: 20 March 2025

We are the Board of the Chairmany (B.Ch.), a gateway plural collective. We speak English (fluent) and German (beginner).

• Please do NOT call us alters, parts, headmates, personalities, or introjects.
• We prefer people, system/Board members, systemmates, fictives/factives, soulbonds, walk-ins, or beings.
• Each Board member is a unique and whole person/being. We are NOT parts of a single person.
• Our origins are irrelevant and our trauma is none of your business.
• We are bodily adult , disabled, Asian (no we won't be more specific), disabled, queer, and predominantly nonhuman.
• If it's safe, please ask the current fronter(s) for their names and pronouns and use them. We prefer to be addressed individually whenever possible.

Disclaimer: These are sources we consider inclusive of all forms of plurality and don't engage in fakeclaiming. However, this is not an endorsement, we don't agree with everything on every site, nor does everything fit us (or will fit you - YMMV!) - we get no monetary profits from this and we are not responsible for the contents in these sites.

YMMV: Your Mileage May Vary

It's not "outdated" as in "bigoted", but has terms that are no longer in wide use like "dark ones", and it mostly is about systems like us: "a system is a group of people and every member is a whole person", as opposed to "a system i..._Neither of those is a universal experienc..._ )
