A World of Absolutes & Tips for Novice sub/slaves
Class log 11
[CJsHere] 9:04 pm: spins the wheel... round and round it goes, where
it stops,, CJ knows.. tick tick, tick, tick,
[CJsHere] 9:05 pm: stops the wheel,, to heck with the wheel.. I
think I'll just come out and pick a topic this evening,
[CJsHere] 9:05 pm: guess I'll mix and match a bit,,
[CJsHere] 9:05 pm: anyone notice the article on the members only
home page,, what makes a good Dominant?
[irislady] 9:06 pm: yes Sir i read it
[laynie] 9:06 pm: yes Sir
[skye_Rod] 9:06 pm: yes Sir
[Rod] 9:06 pm: I as well
[fire_AsjFG] 9:06 pm: yes Master
[CJsHere] 9:06 pm: as I recall, the article starts off... Wow, what
a daunting question… “What makes a good Dominant?” It’s like trying
to describe DNA in great detail. Being Dominant is complex,
detailed,
[CJsHere] 9:06 pm: hmm, that sounds about the same way you'd
describe what makes a good D/s relationship.
[CJsHere] 9:07 pm: D/s relationships, like DNA, they're all rather
unique,,
[CJsHere] 9:07 pm: complex.. I don't think that begins to describe
it,
[CJsHere] 9:07 pm: so yes, I guess I'd have to say it's a rather
daunting question,,
[CJsHere] 9:08 pm: One thing I have found out, regardless of how
you've tailored your individual D/s relationship, it's pretty much a
world of absolutes, or at least it should be.
[CJsHere] 9:09 pm: the world around us is one of situational ethics
and malleable values. Everything is relative to the moment. The
professed standards for today are compromised tomorrow for the sake
of expediency.
[CJsHere] 9:09 pm: Some people thrive in an environment like that,
while others feel as if cast adrift, struggling to stay afloat by
clinging to a few straws of consistency.
[CJsHere] 9:10 pm: Some of us find those straws in a
Dominant/submissive relationship.
[CJsHere] 9:10 pm: A Dominant submissive lifestyle is one of
absolutes. One's role in life is precisely defined. Obligations and
privileges are spelled out in unambiguous terms. Two people enter
into a partnership where one will take the lead, and the other will
follow in support.
[CJsHere] 9:11 pm: There are no vacations, no time outs, no reversal
of positions
[CJsHere] 9:11 pm: Laws and rights are irrelevant; no outside agency
dictates how they will live. The structure of their lives together
is based on the trust, and faith, each one has in the other.
[CJsHere] 9:12 pm: A Dominant leads...
[CJsHere] 9:12 pm: Not just when it's easy or fun. There are no
breaks because he is tired. There are no open and closing times; it
is a 24 hour per day occupation.
[CJsHere] 9:12 pm: He answers her questions, every one, every time.
She will never hear the words "I don't care" because he doesn't have
that option.
[CJsHere] 9:13 pm: e will have an answer to everything, even if it's
no better than "I have to think about it". If she has a problem and
asks him what to do, it becomes his problem. He does not pick and
choose the ways he will be her Dominant, it is all or nothing,
[CJsHere] 9:13 pm: A submissive follows and supports.
[CJsHere] 9:14 pm: He is her Dominant because she trusts his
judgment.
[CJsHere] 9:14 pm: she has a deep abiding faith in his leadership, a
faith never shaken by the inevitable mistakes he makes, for she
knows he is always motivated out of concern for her.
[CJsHere] 9:15 pm: she knows there must come a time in any
disagreement when his word will be final. For the sake of harmony
and peace in the home, someone must yield, and she will be the one.
[CJsHere] 9:16 pm: It is her task to build that place of refuge for
the two of them, the island of quiet free from strife.
[CJsHere] 9:16 pm: Through her obedience to his ultimate authority,
through her love and devotion to the man she calls master, she
creates that oasis where he can go to relax and be himself, with her
at his side.
[CJsHere] 9:17 pm: He is the rock of stability she depends on. her
security comes from the certainty he will always be there no matter
what happens
[CJsHere] 9:17 pm: she sees the love, the desire, the need to own in
his eyes, all telling her how important and valuable she is to him.
He is her absolute, the one facet of her life that she can count on
to be there when she needs him.
[CJsHere] 9:18 pm: And he will be there, for she is the treasure of
his life. She gives meaning to everything he does, be it providing
for her, guiding her through life's rocky moments, or just spending
intimate moments together.
[CJsHere] 9:19 pm: she is the half which completes the whole.
Without her he has no purpose, no home, no future. she is his
absolute, the one person he can trust to reveal his innermost self,
the one he knows he owns, he controls, the one who cannot leave him.
[CJsHere] 9:19 pm: By any definition those in an Dominant submissive
relationship are extremists.
[CJsHere] 9:20 pm: They attempt, and succeed, at what most would
consider an impossible undertaking. A timid cautious approach with
halfway measures won't work.
[CJsHere] 9:20 pm: success or failure hinges on the absolutes of
keeping commitments, and mindsets, every minute of the day, in every
way.
[CJsHere] 9:21 pm: Debates about whether she should or should not
submit to certain types of orders are counterproductive. her focus
is not on judging the merits of what he asks, but rather how best to
accomplish what he seeks
[CJsHere] 9:21 pm: she must use her skills and natural talent to
understand his mind, how he thinks, what motivates him when he
demands. she looks not only at the letter of his law, but the spirit
behind it.
[CJsHere] 9:22 pm: His objective is not to lose sight of her as
someone with her own personality and opinions.
[CJsHere] 9:22 pm: His job is not to stifle her but encourage her to
blossom within the boundaries he draws around her.
[CJsHere] 9:22 pm: He doesn't take away her freedom, he gives her
the protected secure space to grow, free of outside distractions.
[CJsHere] 9:23 pm: He cherishes the person inside her, using his
power to command to draw that inner personality out, to break
through the inhibitions and fears that hold her back.
[CJsHere] 9:23 pm: He does not use that power in a frivolous manner
but with careful consideration. Were he to do otherwise her faith in
him would be destroyed, and he would have no one to blame but
himself.
[CJsHere] 9:25 pm: Is it fantasy to seek this in your relationship?
I think not... does it take commitment, effort and an intense desire
to achieve? Most definitely,,, is it attainable.. only those in your
relationship can answer that. As for Me, I see no reason why it
shouldn't be.
[CJsHere] 9:26 pm: We have to remember and consider, every action we
undertake... the way we spend our time, the objectives or goals we
pursue must always be based on this standard of absolutes..
[CJsHere] 9:27 pm: look to the lines above, the words that have been
typed, how many times do you see places where you could easily
substitute the words, Communication, Honor, Trust and Respect? How
many times can these remarks be caveated with a footnote for those
terms?
[skye_Rod] 9:28 pm: lots....
[brandy] 9:28 pm: ..quite a few times, Sir..
[laynie] 9:28 pm: many times Sir
[CJsHere] 9:29 pm: yes, I firmly believe this lifestyle to be a
world of absolutes, but those absolutes all seem to boil down to
those basic cornerstones of the foundation of a D/s relationship..
Communication, Honor, Trust and Respect.
[CJsHere] 9:30 pm: Here in Asj, a couple of times a week or more, we
hold discussions and classes on lifestyle related topics. Perhaps
some of you have come here thinking that Asj is going to fix you
right up with the perfect relationship, it happened here, so it has
to be perfect..
[jane_DB] 9:31 pm: not neccessarily...
[CJsHere] 9:31 pm: No one can make that perfect relationship for
you,, that is something only you can do. The information you glean
here can only point you in the right direction,, show you examples
of what has worked for others.
[irislady] 9:31 pm: no Sir
[collaire] 9:31 pm: if that would hapen, how great wouldn't that be,
lol
[CJsHere] 9:31 pm: and, show you examples of what has not worked,
[CJsHere] 9:32 pm: in a way, consider this a bit like a horse race
track,
[CJsHere] 9:32 pm: here we all are, betting on our horse to win,,,
some of us,, we'll rely om nothing more than lady luck,, we'll place
our wager, sit back with our fingers crossed and hope our horse
wins,
[CJsHere] 9:33 pm: yet others, they've been around the track a few
times,, they've seen the track record of the horses about to run,
they can recognize the signs of a horse that is too tired to win..
[CJsHere] 9:34 pm: so they place their bets accordingly.. and while
they may not win everytime,, it sure seems that they win their fair
share of the bets.. they've done their homework, and it shows in
their winnings. Meanwhile, the rest of us just tear up our tickets
and sadly walk away,
[CJsHere] 9:35 pm: yet,, we could have had the same opportunity to
win, if we had only opened up our eyes a bit,,,
[CJsHere] 9:35 pm: hope that analogy makes some type of sense.
[jane_DB] 9:35 pm: sometimes, having lost a ruining amount of money.
that's the problem
[irislady] 9:35 pm: yes Sir
[fire_AsjFG] 9:35 pm: yes Master
[laynie] 9:35 pm: it does Sir
[jane_DB] 9:35 pm: it does Sir
[brandy] 9:35 pm: yes Sir
[CJsHere] 9:36 pm: the bottom line,, it becomes your choice, your
decision, are you here to rely on lady luck,, hope that perhaps you
might just randomly pick a winning number,, or, are you here to pick
everyone's brains, to listen to the tips of the jockeys, the
trainers, the owners,, and yes, even to observe the horses
themselves.
[CJsHere] 9:37 pm: that, IMHO, is a secret to winning, ;)
[irislady] 9:37 pm: makes alot of sense Sir
[brandy] 9:37 pm: the former statement Sir..
[CJsHere] 9:38 pm: I notice that we've got some fairly new faces
here this evening,,, so of course, in addition to wanting to welcome
them to our home,, I'd also like to take a few moments, and toss out
some tidbits of information,
[CJsHere] 9:39 pm: hopefully, things that will help them as they
start their journey,, and yes, of course, to try to pound some sense
in to everyone else here, ;) chuckles.
[CJsHere] 9:39 pm: so, if you've heard these before,, hang in there,
I won't bore you with them too long,,
[CJsHere] 9:40 pm: but, please, heard them or not, do pay attention
to them,, and consider these thoughts,, and perhaps in your own
mind, try to formulate why this advice is given, what could be the
reasons behind it,
[CJsHere] 9:40 pm: The only rule is: Do Not Harm. This means
mentally or physically. Any other rules you choose to accept you get
to thoroughly own.
[CJsHere] 9:41 pm: There is not a rule book that has been
distributed to everyone else and missed you. Anybody who tells you
how D/s is done is blowing smoke up your butt. There are as many
variations to this lifestyle as there are people in this world. You
do not have to accept someone else's version of this lifestyle.
[CJsHere] 9:42 pm: Before you are contracted or collared to someone,
you make your own decisions. It is perfectly okay to not do what a
Dominant tells you to before you are collared or contracted to that
Dominant. Matter of fact, I would recommend not obeying every
schmuck that comes along calling himself a Dominant. Find out for
yourself if he's a Dominant, and then obey if you are so inclined.
[Rod] 9:42 pm: You mean I dont know everything after all?
[CJsHere] 9:42 pm: lol.
[CJsHere] 9:43 pm: If your expectation is that it will be a
monogamous relationship and his expectation is for it to be an open
or poly relationship it's best to find out before you commit. This
is also a good time to ask questions like:
[brandy] 9:43 pm: Sir..i have a question
[CJsHere] 9:43 pm: pauses, yes brandy, ask away, listens,
[brandy] 9:44 pm: You mentioned that if the Dom is a schmuck that
you should not obey..
[CJsHere] 9:44 pm: nods, listens,,
[brandy] 9:44 pm: then what about manners, like "Sir"..He might get
the wrong idea and think you are obeying Him..
[CJsHere] 9:44 pm: since when is common courtesy anything to do with
obeying?
[brandy] 9:45 pm: maybe...but He is still a schmuck...
[CJsHere] 9:45 pm: does that mean when I walk into the store and the
girl says, "May I help you Sir", I should respond by saying, "oh
yes, on your knees".. ??
[skye_Rod] 9:45 pm: hahah
[skye_Rod] 9:45 pm: THAT would be funny
[cricket_NF] 9:45 pm: giggles
[CJsHere] 9:45 pm: common courtesy is common courtesy, nothing
more..
[irislady] 9:46 pm: Sir when You are done with class i have 3
questions in which to ask
[CJsHere] 9:46 pm: feel free to ask them now iris, (if they are
related to what we are discussing)
[brandy] 9:46 pm: fine.. then..Sir...
[CJsHere] 9:47 pm: listens
[irislady] 9:47 pm: at what point Sir does one become under
contract?
[CJsHere] 9:47 pm: it's a bit like a wedding, when she says.. "I
do"..
[CJsHere] 9:47 pm: or other comparable words or terms,
[CJsHere] 9:47 pm: and no, she don't until she do. ;)
[CJsHere] 9:48 pm: make sense?
[CJsHere] 9:48 pm: but let's elaborate on that a bit,,,
[irislady] 9:48 pm: what if a Dom says He is looking for a part time
Dom? and yes Sir thank You it did.
[irislady] 9:49 pm: i meas sub Sir?
[CJsHere] 9:49 pm: let's use an example.. a girl walks in here,, and
for what ever reason, I say do something, do I have a right to tell
her to do it,, no, probably not,, but, yes, the girl has the right
to say to herself, "ya know, i think this dude knows what he's
talking about,, i best shush and do as i'm told"..
[CJsHere] 9:49 pm: lol.. part time sub huh,,
[irislady] 9:50 pm: Yes Sir
[irislady] 9:50 pm: i had one say that Sir
[CJsHere] 9:51 pm: I guess ,, if there is a girl that only wants
part time,, after she spends sometime figuring out which part, maybe
she should come talk to Me so I can set her straight,, My guess, if
someone is looking for part time, then they're not looking for a D/s
relationship, rather they are looking for a Top/bottom (BDSM)
relationship.
[fire_AsjFG] 9:51 pm: maybe a better question would be ask yourself
iris....are you a part time sub?
[irislady] 9:51 pm: no fire i am not
[fire_AsjFG] 9:51 pm: winks
[CJsHere] 9:52 pm: did that get all three questions?
[irislady] 9:52 pm: no Sir i have one more
[CJsHere] 9:52 pm: nods, listens,
[irislady] 9:52 pm: Sir You said that a Dom is a 24/7 committment,
can a Dom at some point change his mind about the realtionship?
[CJsHere] 9:53 pm: hmm, how to answer that,, best,,,
[CJsHere] 9:53 pm: first, I'd tell you to scroll up, read all that I
wrote in the first half of this topic this evening,,, next..
[CJsHere] 9:54 pm: grudgingly, I'll tell you we're all human,, we do
make mistakes, and while I would like to think that every D/s or M/s
relationship will last til at least three days past doomsday, the
reality is, there are some relationships that will unfortunately
ultimately break down..
[irislady] 9:55 pm: then what happens Sir?
[CJsHere] 9:55 pm:
[irislady] 9:56 pm: makes sense Sir
[CJsHere] 9:57 pm: I'm trying to think of a quote, by George Bernard
Shaw,, regarding communication,, can't recall it verbatim, but
essentially what he says is that the biggest failure in
communicating is not talking,, but rather it is in the failure to
understand what is communicated.
[CJsHere] 9:58 pm: any other questions? (otherwise I'll finish up
on My list,, )
[irislady] 9:58 pm: no Sir
[CJsHere] 9:58 pm: let's see, where was I,, will cut and paste the
last I said,,
[CJsHere] 9:58 pm: If your expectation is that it will be a
monogamous relationship and his expectation is for it to be an open
or poly relationship it's best to find out before you commit. This
is also a good time to ask questions like:
[CJsHere] 9:59 pm: A) What happens if I get pregnant? B) What
happens if I move across the country for you, quit my job for you
and you release me, abuse me, or make me so miserable I want to cut
my heart out with a plastic spoon?
[CJsHere] 9:59 pm: C) Are we having unprotected sex and if so, may I
see the certificate from the doctor regarding your HIV and STD
tests? Put all this writing and both of you sign it. It won't mean
squat in a court of law, but it will cover your butt in the case of
arguments.
[CJsHere] 10:00 pm: Safety, Safety, Safety. Dead submissives don't
serve. Use your head. If a Dominant is about to do something to you
that can cause you harm, speak up and possibly get out. There are a
lot of inexperienced players out there that believe the Sleeping
Beauty Books are real.
[CJsHere] 10:01 pm: There will be a lot of people proclaiming that
they are Dominants and Masters to you. Some of them are wonderful,
incredible people, some are full of crap, some of them are looking
for easy sex, and some of them are down right delusional.
[kenna] 10:01 pm: scary.
[CJsHere] 10:02 pm: Understand that actions will always speak louder
than words. I can proclaim myself the King of the United States and
then demand that all of you send me your taxes so I can quit my job
and build a 16000sf $5million house in Laguna Beach, but you're not
going to do it, right?
[irislady] 10:02 pm: Very Sir
[skye_Rod] 10:02 pm: uh...no Sir ...sorry
[CJsHere] 10:02 pm: be aware that there are people that search out
novices because they know that they can take advantage of you.
[brandy] 10:02 pm: no Sir...
[irislady] 10:02 pm: i know Sir it has begun already with me
[irislady] 10:03 pm: they are seeking me out because i am new Sir
[CJsHere] 10:03 pm: there is always someone out there that will
appreciate what you bring to the table. Don't change who you are to
suit somebody else, simply because they say so. Men out number women
in the scene 3 to 1. (I know, a different and opposite ratio for
D/s) So, there are a lot of fish in the sea. Don't settle for
someone that doesn't fit you.
[CJsHere] 10:03 pm: here is a difference between domineering and
Dominant. Webster's Dictionary says: Dominant - ruling or
prevailing, Domineering - harsh, arrogant, tyrannizing, overbearing.
Dominants shouldn't feel the need to be bullies. If someone does act
that way...run away....fast.
[CJsHere] 10:04 pm: There are people that will tell you that you're
not submissive. Many will do it in hopes that they can goad you into
doing what they want in your effort to prove that you are
submissive. Bottom line, until they've met you face to face...it's
just cyberspace.
[CJsHere] 10:04 pm: We're in this lifestyle because it makes us
happy. If you take it too seriously, you will take all the fun out
of it. Have a sense of humor.
[CJsHere] 10:05 pm: When it comes to meeting Dominants:
[irislady] 10:05 pm: i still have my humor Sir
[Rod] 10:05 pm: :roll:
[skye_Rod] 10:05 pm: lol
[CJsHere] 10:05 pm: When it comes to meeting Dominants:
[CJsHere] 10:06 pm: Meet on your turf. Some place you're familiar
with, in public with a well lit parking lot.
[skye_Rod] 10:06 pm: the only stupid question is the unasked
question....
[CJsHere] 10:06 pm: I would NEVER EVER meet somebody at a hotel or
their home. I don't suggest dinners because a) it's not easy
extricate yourself if it's going miserably and b) sometimes people
that buy dinner think they've bought you.
[CJsHere] 10:07 pm: Never get into his car, even at the end of the
evening. I also wouldn't recommend allowing him to walk you to your
car. A string of rapes happened in the LA community where the "Dom"
pushed the submissive into either his car or her car.
[CJsHere] 10:07 pm: Get caller ID blocking on your phone and you
call him. Preferably on his home phone number. I generally would not
continue with anyone that refused to give you their home phone or
lied about whether the number they gave you was their home phone.
[CJsHere] 10:08 pm: You can check to see if it's a cell phone by
using Reverse Directory. It will tell you if a phone number is
assigned to a cell phone company.
[CJsHere] 10:08 pm: Wear whatever you want and are comfortable in.
Until you are contracted or collared to that Dominant what you wear
is your choice.
[cupcake] 10:08 pm: how do we get the reverse directroy Sir CJ?
[CJsHere] 10:09 pm: reverse directories are abundant online,, just a
simple webearch will turn up a hundred free one.. one is 411.com
[CJsHere] 10:09 pm: Be wary of people that start conversation off
with: "Are you submissive?" " How large are your breasts?" "Do you
like anal sex?" "What are your limits?"
[irislady] 10:09 pm: what would be proper starting conversation Sir?
[Rod] 10:10 pm: goes both ways...Ive had several girls go to that
conversation right away
[CJsHere] 10:10 pm: I suggest you always make it perfectly clear
that there will be no sex or S&M on the first meeting. In fact,
there probably wouldn't be sex or S&M for the first 3 to 5 dates.
[cupcake] 10:10 pm: id also say beware of those who wont disclose
there living situation or are living with a "friend" or "room mate"
as well
[CJsHere] 10:11 pm: this is the stage where you're still determining
if you even like them, never mind trust them with your life. If a
Dominant was unwilling to wait until you were comfortable, don't
meet them. After all, wouldn't you I like to think you were worth
the wait?
[CJsHere] 10:12 pm: Have a safe call
[CJsHere] 10:12 pm: Use common sense. The same idiosyncrasies exist
in the D/s BDSM realm as the vanilla realm. This means that if you
act like a one night stand, you probably will be a one night stand.
If you cry to everyone about how he used you and never called
again....some subs will try to comfort you, some subs will wonder
what the hell you expected and some Doms will send you tons of email
because you're obviously easy.
[CJsHere] 10:13 pm: (tries to hurry now.. looking at the clock)
[CJsHere] 10:13 pm: I really don't recommend quitting your job and
moving across the country to become someone's live in 24/7
slave/submissive without a concrete plan on how to extricate
yourself in case it doesn't work out. Think about how difficult it
would be to get out of that situation with no money and no support
network.
[CJsHere] 10:13 pm: I believe that the absolute best way to meet
people is to be active in your local BDSM D/s group (and yes, that
includes Asj). Attend munches, volunteer as help for fetish events,
be involved. This serves two purposes. It gives you a local support
network and allows you to get a better idea of the reputations of
the people out there. Unfortunately, asking for references can be
faked in this day and age. Knowing the community is the best way to
learn if someone is safe.
[CJsHere] 10:14 pm: If they've lied about age, height, weight, or
whether they have submissives or a wife, I would just drop it right
there. Lying about the first three shows me that they're willing to
lie about something insubstantial, which makes me worry about how
easy it would for them to lie about the big stuff.
[CJsHere] 10:14 pm: The second two shows me that they're willing to
lie to the most important people in their lives, and they would not
hesitate to lie to you too.
[CJsHere] 10:15 pm: This is a lifestyle based on trust and if your
going to put your life in their hands, goddammit you have to be able
to trust him.
[CJsHere] 10:16 pm: okay,, that should give you a few things to
think about and ponder a bit,,
[irislady] 10:16 pm: most definetely Sir, very informative class
thank You Sir
[CJsHere] 10:16 pm: I hope some of the issues, thoughts and words
we've used tonight will help to set you to thinking a bit,
understanding what this lifestyle is all about,, and perhaps some of
the whys we do things as we do..
[brandy] 10:16 pm: thank You again Sir..
[kenna] 10:17 pm: Thank You Sir
[CJsHere] 10:17 pm: Doms, anything you'd like to comment on or ad?
[Rod] 10:17 pm: only about something early on
[CJsHere] 10:17 pm: nods, listens,
[Rod] 10:17 pm: the statement that laws dont exist
[Rod] 10:18 pm: might have been disconcerting to some new girls
[CJsHere] 10:18 pm: nods, that was a general statement, yes, in some
cases, some things are legal. but, for the most part, slave
contracts do not exist from a legal standpoint,
[Rod] 10:18 pm: laws exist but the Dom knows the limits and respects
them
[CJsHere] 10:18 pm: a slave contract here in the US is not
enforceable in any court of law.
[Rod] 10:19 pm: I mean lawsabout brutalityand so forth
[skye_Rod] 10:19 pm: true SIr..... they dont... but if the parties
can prove that an agreement was made... and its signed and witnessed
doesnt it have some relevence in court?
[Rod] 10:19 pm: abusevs play
[CJsHere] 10:19 pm: wasn't referring to those types of laws.. what
was being referred to is,, if you make an agreement with your Dom
that you are going to do this or that,, or vice versa,, that "slave
agreement" is not binding in a court of law..
[Rod] 10:19 pm: not in Michigan
[CJsHere] 10:19 pm: make sense?
[CJsHere] 10:20 pm: none at all skye,
[brandy] 10:20 pm: Sir, i would think it very difficult for her to
"prove" brutality, especially when D/s is still in the closet..
[CJsHere] 10:20 pm: not in any of the 50 states,
[skye_Rod] 10:20 pm: ok
[Rod] 10:20 pm: right, Im refering to her being hurt and not being
able todo anything about it
[CJsHere] 10:20 pm: if you've entered the word slave, or described a
Master slave relationship in the agreement, it is not enforceable in
a US court. period. no discussion.
[brandy] 10:21 pm: although there is so much D/s and BDSM out there
in the vanilla world..wonders when D/s will be open, like
respectable..
[skye_Rod] 10:21 pm: in the context of domestic violence within a
Master slave relationship... the second you tell the police/court
about that... it makes it very difficult to be taken seriously... or
to get help
[CJsHere] 10:21 pm: I'd like to think it is now, but knowing what
you mean, nope, it's not there yet, but hopefully, some day soon.
[Rod] 10:21 pm: when the marks stay on the tush and not around the
eye
[CJsHere] 10:22 pm: don't bet on that skye,,
[skye_Rod] 10:22 pm: has experienced it Sir.... know it first
hand...
[CJsHere] 10:22 pm: but again, part of that depends on how you
pursue it,
[cupcake] 10:22 pm: D/s was a regular thing in a 1940's-50's
household or so ive been told
[Rod] 10:22 pm: true enough
[CJsHere] 10:22 pm: and again, I'd tell you, don't bet on it skye,
;)
[CJsHere] 10:22 pm: nods to cc.
[CJsHere] 10:22 pm: but, it wasn't called D/s back then, it was
called, "marriage",,
[Rod] 10:23 pm: remember when Ricky spanked lucy on tv
[cupcake] 10:23 pm: i loved watching her get spanked it tickles me
[kenna] 10:23 pm: i love lucy!
