Taking Time

First my apologies for the absence of posts.  Holidays (may yours be filled with friends, family and joy) plus the need to prepare for a move from our large house holding many for as long as eighteen years, the following January is a daunting task taking much time. But opening …

Looking for your First Dominant and submissive Relationship

This was my response to a thread on FetLife.Com.  This is a membership social media site aimed at the Kink and BDSM communities.  The original question was expressed by someone new to the lifestyle and wishing to find a relationship with a Dominant personality but was having trouble. —————————————————— We …

Why a Daddy?

In FetLife I saw the following as a statement on being a Daddy.  I thought it a good description which struck some notes within me. “Make no mistake – this is fantasy, not reality. I do not wear a suit every day. My life isn’t cast in black & white, …
