4 Oct 07Submission and masochism...not the same.... (10)(29 Oct 11, 4:13 PM by wonderer)
Submission and masochism are not the same thing. [more...]
29 Feb 08A Thorny Issue... (12)(22 Feb 10, 3:57 PM by skyfox)
I see there have been a couple of threads where the paedophilia debate has raised its ugly head again. For a while I have been thinking that on some of the common topics I should put my views in a blog, then instead of writing out the same argument over and over again I can just link to the blog that contains the argument. So, here goes with my thoughts on paedophilia, formed on the basis of being connected with a number of child abuse cases of various degrees of seriousness in my professional capacity. [more...]
12 Mar 07Making it personal (6)(18 Apr 09, 12:47 PM by wonderer)
Anyone who has read some of my recent posts will know that I am not comfortable with the levels of personal abuse that has been aimed at various people on some threads recently. Of course it always goes on, but what with the various 'outing'threads, the witch hunt for sock puppets and even the Blair/Thatcher thread, which seems to be extremely personal at times, there seems to have been even more than usual recently.

27 Feb 09Fortified Ships in the Night (2)(27 Feb 09, 6:37 PM by magpieuk)
Killing a bit of time the other day while my car was being serviced, and feeling in one of those periodic states of high sexual frustration I was wondering around town, and found myself looking at virtually every woman who passed wondering if they'd be interested in passing a few hours with a bit of kinky sex. Given how many people I saw the odds must be that at least one of them probably would have been, but how could I possibly know? You can hardly walk around with a sign on saying 'Get kinky sex here'. If you did you'd probably severely reduce your chances of finding it rather than increasing [more...]
19 Jan 09The Same Coin. (13)(25 Feb 09, 5:39 AM by wonderer)
We walked together for the first time, the occasional brush of arms and hands, innocent, accidental, yet sending little sparks of electricity up my arms. We sat, tired, on a rock at the crest of a hill, and stared silently at the view, the wind sighing gently over a clear landscape, tiny and toy like below us, and our shoulders rested against each other. Layers of clothing didn't stop a warmth from seeping through my body, greater and more comforting than the glow of an exercised body. A contented, natural, calm togetherness, the seed of hope for so much more to grow from. [more...]
14 Jan 09Right/Left Wing and the Mosley Saga (23)(18 Jan 09, 10:35 AM by newfavourite)
Just before Christmas I was becoming involved in one of the endless Max Mosley debates which was becoming alarmingly personal, to the extent that I deliberately avoided IC for a couple of days to try and calm down. It made me stop and think, because I was concerned about how exasperated I was becoming, mainly with people who, at heart, I probably share a lot of ideals with. I wondered why this subject, and related ones, on attitudes towards the BNP for instance, make me feel the way I do. [more...]
18 Nov 08Individuality is what it's all about.... (4)(18 Nov 08, 4:42 PM by Lee_Van_Spunkenfrick)
Reading this thread has led me to wonder just how so many groups supposedly dedicated to equality and being anti-discrimination have somehow managed to get themselves into such bitter arguments with each other. It seems to me that the reason is that those who run these various groups aren't really interested in being anti-discrimination, or in equality, they are mostly interested in trying to make everyone conform to their image of how their particular 'group' should behave and be treated. So if you are a woman you must behave in the way [more...]
5 Nov 08The Death (and Rebirth?) of Off Topic (6)(7 Nov 08, 1:18 PM by Masters_Delight)
So, as Off Topic gasps its last we are all supposed to turn our attention to the Weblogs. Not that I can see any huge changes yet, but it may bring together two contrasting sections of IC society. I seem to remember Lingus making the journey in the opposite direction and being thrilled to discover Off Topic, I suppose now he will have to return here full time. [more...]
6 Oct 08Forgiveness (1)(6 Oct 08, 8:09 PM by whosthatgirl)
How much are we prepared to forgive in the search for love? [more...]
24 Sep 08Loneliness (10)(27 Sep 08, 8:20 AM by Hooded_Claw)
I suffer a great deal from loneliness, most of the time just there in the background, but kept under control, but occasionally leaping forward and overwhelming me. I have always thought that this is in large part due to my inability to cope with small talk, to keep in touch with people on a day to day basis. I thought (and still think) that the answer would be to find my soul mate, a companion I am just comfortable with, with whom I can share my life. But I always thought that solution was particularly necessary for me, that most people have a circle of friends, people they are in touch with regularly, [more...]
19 Mar 08Using, abusing or learning? (5)(20 Mar 08, 9:29 PM by eloesa)
Over the last few years I have had a few relationships, though some of them could only be called that in the loosest sense, lasting from a few days to a year. Many of them have involved chatting to people for a while online, meeting up, getting on OK, spending a night or two together and at that stage me realising that although I quite like this person there is no real spark there. Sometimes it is the other way round, but I actually find it much harder when it is me that has to say it. It isn't intended as a criticism, it doesn't mean there is anything wrong, it is just the fact that somewhere that [more...]
3 Mar 08What would make you read this? (7)(4 Mar 08, 6:19 PM by spirifer)
In some ways this will sound like desperate self-promotion, or a need to stoke my ego by increasing my viewing count, but I am genuinely fascinated by the processes involved in weblogs and who reads and replies to them. [more...]
8 Jan 08The Dilemma of the Considerate Dominant (20)(3 Mar 08, 8:28 PM by just_iana)
In my dreams my girl is the perfect slave. She does what I want, lets me do horrible perverted things to her, and loves it, shares intelligent conversation and pursuits with me, but also lets me do my own thing when I need to. She even tops me when I want it, in exactly the way I want it. She doesn't really need to be actively dominated, she knows instinctively what I need. [more...]
12 Feb 08The meaning of life.... (14)(18 Feb 08, 8:55 PM by Deb_121)
What is it that we really want from life, the one thing more than any other that will make us contented? True love? But what makes true love? [more...]
14 Jan 08How fragile is this thing called ego? (3)(27 Jan 08, 1:40 PM by Original_Rebel)
It is strange what criteria we choose to define our self-worth. I am intelligent, was lucky enough to be born into a comfortably off middle class family, have a stable childhood and good education. I am now not rich, but comfortable, and have a professional job. I have reasonable social status, I know I am good at my job. I believe my moral principles are sound and I am good enough at abiding by them. Looked at rationally I have many things to be proud of. Yet because all these things are things I have pretty much had all my life, or have come fairly easily, I take them all pretty much for granted, [more...]
21 Jan 08Exposing Yourself (5)(23 Jan 08, 11:10 AM by Mrs_Smith)
First things first. If you came here looking for a blog on flashing then thanks for increasing my view count, but you may as well hit the back button now. It's not about literally exposing yourself. [more...]
1 Jan 08To Blog or not to Blog.... (10)(2 Jan 08, 12:22 PM by mq1965)
That is the question I have asked myself repeatedly over the last four years or so. [more...]
25 Oct 07The root of all evil? (5)(1 Nov 07, 11:58 AM by Cinnamon_Tart)
Some of these thoughts have been swirling round in my head for a while, and I have had a couple of previous attempts at writing them down without quite being able to get it right. Thanks to Cinammon_Tart for a comment on something else that I posted for helping these thoughts to finally crystallise into something vaguely coherent - though the fault is entirely mine if they still make no sense at all... [more...]
1 Apr 07What a Difference a Snail Makes (28)(2 Apr 07, 3:58 PM by Bellatrix_LeStrange)
Two LAMs in two months? I'll be in danger of being mistaken for a scene person if I'm not careful, though I did duck out of the after party, so not quite there yet. [more...]
5 Mar 07First LAM - First Blog (11)(13 Mar 07, 12:40 PM by spirifer)
I've been around here for nearly 3 1/2 years now, and have been thinking I really ought to start a blog sometime for the majority of that time. The trouble is that I am a fairly private person, and although I often feel like writing my personal thoughts and feelings down, I don't feel like then exposing them to the world. [more...]
