and there isn't that much that does - but my take on the whole d/s thing is that its very much about an expression of a personal preference. Its taken me some time (years actually) to balance what works for me in relationships with how I approach the world in general (freedom of speech, personal development, importance of equality and tolerance). I don't have much/any sympathy for those who equate their decisions to live in a d/s dynamic to being a directive from god (but then I'm a atheist/Buddhist) and have even less truck with people who state that the natural place of a woman is submissive to a man.
*twitches a lot*
I'd go so far as to say HELL NO! There are plenty of women/men/others who are most fulfilled in a submissive role, and plenty who prefer equality of power sharing, and another chunk who prefer to be more or less in control. As far as I can see there is no 'biological' imperative for this, nor should that be used as a reason for how and why a relationship structure is formed.
Here endeth my short rant for today ![]()
[oh and I'm unconvinced by the necessity of capitalising some words or letters and not others. Maybe that makes me a rotten submissive type/bottom whatever the heck I am???]
