Bringing out my Top side

I've recently returned to IC after spending some time away from the entire bdsm scene and it's good to be back home.

People who have been in the bdsm scene since the late 90s know me as "stripey", for reasons which should be obvious if you take a look at my picture titled "Bad boy".

I've always been more of a masochist than a classical "submissive".

I'm definitely not the sort of guy who is thrilled at the prospect of cleaning your house in exchange for the privilege of having a whip waved in my direction every now and again. Go hire a cleaner, you tight git! That's not to say that I don't enjoy D/s roleplay – of course I do – but a good whipping is the quickest route to making me a happy bunny.

I have my switchy tendencies too – and I'm definitely becoming very interested in exploring my Top side. Again, I'm no expert in psychological dominance or mindplay, so if you're looking for a Dom/Master rather than a Top, I may not be the right one for you. I'm not averse to exploring these avenues – but I'd prefer to be honest and say that I'm rather inexperienced in those aspects of the scene.

Please note: just because I am capable of enjoying both the receiving and giving of consensual pain, it doesn't mean I'm necessarily looking for people who are switches themselves (although that would certainly be fun! ). I'm quite happy to be exclusively Top or bottom with people who prefer it that way.

I'm very happy to hear from people of any gender, orientation, age etc for friendly chats and banter. For play partners, I'm only interested in women, whether that is as Top or bottom. As far as relationship material goes, well, I think we'll both "just know" if that is on the agenda.

Finally... I do have a life outside of bdsm, so it helps if you do too.

TV: I don't have an idiot box in the house any more, but I did think Life on Mars was jolly good. And going back a bit further, The Clangers were pretty awesome too.
