BDsm

Is it the place in Seattle Ari? Center for sex positive communities I think it is called... or something like that.

No it was Ms Stacey's club in Calgary. Quite a nice location :)

Our community has sex parties where everyone knows each other... coming over? maybe you should get to know people here ;) There is a BDSM component I here too :D

I would like to do another trip there of course. I have heard good things about the community there. I have met...Sir dragonballZ guy. Can't remember his name and I coined that a while back so I could remember. He explained the scene over there and I had considered putting myself out there during my visit. Just never seems to be enough time ;) That and most of my play is very private. I am discovering my openess is very personal. My intimates are the only ones to get that side of me :)
 
I'm going to the Fetish Flea in RI in Feb. My first big BDSM event. It started as a marketplace, but the community takes over the hotel and there are play parties all over it for every kind of kink. Should be a real eye opener.
 
I need to be punished!

Villians and Victims is the theme of next months event...Redpepper and I are thinking about how to play that out. Is she a victim getting back at the villian who wronged her? Am I a victim of her villainous ways? What to do, what to do :D
 
If this has been asked already, please kick my ass

I have a new-found personal interest in the following:

What about a sub teaching a potential dom to be you know, "dominant" the way the sub likes it?

Is this an oxymoron, or not?

Feedback, pls.
 
I think in order for a sub/dom relationship to meet both people's needs there should be feedback/input from the sub. This enables the relationship to grow. Before engaging in a scene Redpepper asks me if there is anything in particular I want to do or work on. We debrief afterwards to share our thoughts.

Well thank you captain obvious. No, really! I appreciate that, and agree with it. My question was more of an abstract realization that there is more to a power-exchange than meets the eye, not a question about the best way to approach a "scene".

I have this friend, you see... never mind.
 
Wouldn't it just be frustrating to try to teach someone to be dominant?:confused:

Well, as I see it, Easy doesn't have any free time, so I research for him and teach him what I find out. In this way, I, the service-oriented submissive, am teaching him to be a dominant. I'm also figuring out what I like in the process, so I'm sharing that knowledge as well.

I just had a talk with Asha today in which she stated that she felt uncomfortable always telling Easy how to be a better dominant for her. I often try to figure out what she wants and share that with Easy, as well, though I'm trying to be careful what I do share.

Of course, it was this behavior that got me accused of topping from the bottom in the first place...

In the past couple years, I've played with several men who styled themselves as Doms, but who bored and upset me because they were really just repressed assholes or douches who could only have sex in a tight controlled atmosphere. My needs and desires were not enquired about, and at least one of them crossed boudaries that had been discussed beforehand, or didn't deliver in certain areas he led me to expect he was interested in sharing.

This is a rather standard Dom website, and hetero focused but, imo, lays out some reasonable guidelines for how to be a good ("twue) Dom.

Above all, the Dominant cherishes His submissive, sure of the knowledge that the gift she gives Him is the grandest gift of all. He is demanding and profits fully from the power she gives Him. But at the same times is sure to share the pleasure resulting from this treasured gift with her.

He is in full control over Himself as to exert power over others. As a strict and demanding Dominant He can bring real tears to His submissive. But as an accomplished lover, He'll kiss those tears away without leaving His role.

In times of trouble or problems, a Dominant will leave the roles (if need be) so He can be an understanding friend and partner, as He knows the relation between Him and His submissive is a loving one. He will never ask His submissive to put Him before her career or family just to please Him.

...To win the spirit, the body and the soul of His submissive He knows that first He has to win her trust. Therefore He shows her His humorous side, His warmth and His friendship. But at the same time He shows her that His lessons and guidance are worthy of her attention; that He is a man from whom she can learn and whose judgment she can trust.

I've been trying to explore some of my interests with O but he's just not that into it. I think he's got some top in him but it's just not his thing. I'm hoping I can magically procure a play partner of some sort. I'm going to a local fetish ball this weekend some I'm excited about that. I'm still kind of learning what I'm interested in and what not.
