Collective nouns in the scene (67)

I always enjoyed the strange collective names for animals. There are the more common ones like a “Pride of Lions”

The more unusually ones give a good description of the animals behaviour as a collective. It is correct to call it a flock of ducks but they can also be called a puddle of ducks. Or you can get a memory of elephants or a raft of crocodiles.

The question I have is what are the correct collective nouns for particular kinks in the scene. (e.g. Doms. Subbies. Ropes people, PVC lovers, single tail users. etc)

What do you call a group of rubber enthusiast? A “Whist of rubbers” (in the game of Whist you have to have the most rubbers to win). It does not have to be a good joke. I know there are better names.

A collection of rope bunnies is obviously a “tie of bunnies”

To start it off I will put forward my suggestion for the collective noun for those of us who love to get the cane.

“A Line of Canees.” Told you it did not have to be a good joke!

I've never heard of a collective noun for Loins.

I thought that rubbers occurred in bridge.

Lol... you beat me to it.

@The_Coven / @The_Problem_Page / I want the "Moon on a stick and the Stars suspended from bunting". / So many haystacks, so few needles! / Any man can be what a woman wants him to be, if he wants to be with her... relinquish the power to her and let her lead the way.
