They accept that the real world is a challenging place and that they do not all share the same passions and beliefs, but they do not judge people just because they are different, one of the key purposes of coming together as a community is to learn and understand what their differences are so that they can develop more as individuals.
The worlwide community of mailfriends is a place where open minded people challenge rather than just accept, not through hatred or disdain but through intellectual curiosity.

They use their own experiences to help people no matter where they are or what their situations may be. Respect for peoples lives and their right to have a life that is free from intolerance, persecution, abuse and hatred is at the core of there beliefs.
They welcome open discussions on important topics and do not shy away from dealing with hard issues, they do not bow down to political correctness but neither do they tolerate hatred, racism, sexism, harassment, obscenity, threatening behaviour and respect each others right to privacy at all times.

They enjoy sharing their lives and experiences through interactions with other mailfriends even if these interactions sometimes make them feel uncomfortable.
Mailfriends is above all a community where people enjoy and experience the real world through conversations with people from every corner of the world.
