How to Become a REAL (Dom/sub)

I must admit to a bit of hesitation every time I hear the adjective “REAL” (usually in caps) applied to either submissive or Dominant.  It is most often used to describe how “you” or “he” or “she” is not a REAL submissive because….  Or how a REAL Dominant should behave.  It …

Under Consideration

I read this today from a profile on a popular BDSM community site.  “***I am now Under Consideration in trial Ownership as property.  I’m no longer permitted to correspond with any men or Dominants.  Thank you.***” I see this kind of thing a lot and it astounds me.  A submissive, in this …

AfterCare

This article was a significant one for me.  It is about care, not only for our play partners, but also for ourselves.  It is not about a Dominant’s care for his submissive, but of that submissive’s care for their Dominant.  Both are necessary.  While my original impetus comes from being a sadistic …

Computers and Evolution

I might have blogged on this previously, but I couldn’t find it.  (HA!  I found them here and here.  But it is an important subject.)  But some interchanges between myself and several other people have prompted me to express my very strong opinion on textual communication and particularly internet romance. …

Practice

I have been quite rude over the last week, and have linked to this post twice but had not yet published it.    I am, however, glad I finished it for the link does take you here either way.  But I will tease you again and publish it today before …

Food and Company

The consumption of food within the context of good company is something worthy of celebration so much so that it is in and of itself that celebration.  When given the hospitality of friends, it is a good thing to return the favor by hosting a meal for them.  It is …

Ubaldo Vitali

I was listening to one of my favorite programs today, CNN’s The Next List.  I have them recorded so I can watch at my convenience.  This was about an old world trained fifth generation Master Silversmith named Ubaldo Vitali.  OK, interesting, I like a good craftsman and artist, until I …

Shades Freed

I have finished the “Fifty Shades of Grey” series.  Again, I will do my best to avoid any plot points.  I know it is a phenomenally popular series, and do not wish to spoil it for any prospective readers. But my reactions continue.  As anyone could probably guess, Christian Grey is, in …

Two Sides

I wanted to talk a bit about myself.  You must understand that what I am about to say about myself, to the extent that I can manage at this time of my life, is the truth. Within the context of the lifestyle, I am very much a Dominant.  Now I …
