Very interesting, although I agree, I would say that it requires a relatively sophisticated intellect with some emotional intelligence to play the games we do.

There are some people who don't see the difference between abusing you in bedroom fun, and treating you disrespectfully in a non-sexual setting.

Having said that, just because some people lack the capacity to mindfuck properly, that's no reason not to enjoy breaking social norms and crossing boundaries of acceptable behaviour in consenting relationships.

Bottom line is we should all think we're brainy for being able to walk the fine line without falling off :-)

Thank you! It makes for great reading.

I particularly liked....

:-D

Indeed.

You'd think, but there are a depressing amount of male doms around on here who will tell you that male Dom/female sub is just the natural order of things and things 'used to work better' and current gender roles have just fucked everything up etc. It's incredibly tedious to have to filter those types out.

Oh yes! Natural order! The way the Lord God intended! Back to the 13th century, please, where chattels were chattels, serving maids were sex toys and wives were ... well ... sex toys with the benefit of an added dowry!

Down with the foul, repressive march of unrestrained sexual equality and justice!

Let the Gor novels of John Norman be the blueprint for society!

And now .................. I shall take my tounge out of my cheek and stop being a COMPLETE arse ... ;)

*UPDATE* Model(s) for "how to" bondage photographs (and other bondage photographs) have now been found. Thank you to all who showed interest.

Thanks very much!! Liked this a lot and think I will check up on her perverted ramblings from time to time.

Thanks for posting that.

It's taken me a long time to work out that although I enjoy the idea of kink in the bedroom, it doesn't mean I'm a misogynistic sadist. In fact, I think it might be quite the opposite. I get the impression that the amount of discussion, preparation and consideration which goes into a D/S relationship is very high. On the other hand, picking up women for the purposes of a quick Vanilla shag seems to demonstrate far more contempt for women.
