The PG Dom/Sub conundrum

I will only say this, and then let it go.

I still don't understand the sub thing. For me, I think women should be worshiped, put on a pedestal. Treated as goddesses.

Again, not a dom/sub but I want to comment on this...

My husband feels the same way. He has very high standards when it comes to me. Pedestal, absolutely. His perfect little princess. He works hard to give me everything I want and more. BUT what happens when what she wants tarnishes your perception of what this perfect, innocent, little flower should want? What happens when she masturbates all.the.time and reads "repulsive" stories online? Just sayin' sometimes that pedestal is not all its cracked up to be. :(

Don't know what to tell you. Have you talked to him about masturbating a lot and reading "repulsive" stories?

yup.

it's a lot to have to live up to.
I think those rose-colored glasses were meant to be worn intermittently, not all the time.
 
Post a picture of yourself in chains and then see if they don't trickle out of the woodwork. ^_~
 
This is only my perspective, and my personal experience from being a submissive. It's not intended to offend anybody, or make anybody feel defensive. It's not an argument, it's not intended to start a smear campaign. It simply is one submissives opinion. (i.e. I can not possibly speak from a Dom/me or switches point of view)

For me, it wasn't ever a decision. Being submissive has always been a part of who I am. From the first time I began exploring my sexuality, I knew there was something in me that craved more, sexually, I loved when my boyfriend took control and was demanding, but it rarely happened. However, it was more than just a sexual aspect. I craved structure, as well. I had no term for it until I was about 26 and found an entire group online dedicated to BDSM. I remember that period of time so clearly because it was like "coming home". Finally, I had a term, a definition... I didn't have to feel depraved and ashamed. I found an entire community of support to share with until I was comfortable enough to share it with my husband. It had a place in my marriage for many years.

There are soooooo many men and women who have a genuine calling for it, but are only able to explore it in this medium, for whatever their reasons may be.. maybe a spouse/partner who isn't into it, maybe for a feeling of guilt or shame (which I had for years before I even knew the term 'submissive'.) And, then, there are those who never knew it was in them until perusing stories or sites and found something stirring deep within themselves, an awakening, if you will. This is the best place, in my opinion, to test the waters and really let yourself soar, experience mentally, and maybe decide, as I did, that you'd like to physically experience it.

What is upsetting to me is to watch people abuse it or take it lightly (again, my opinion), such as collaring. I've witnessed online submissives collaring and then the very next week collaring to someone different. We, the submissive community, refer to those as 'velcro collars'. A collar is a symbol of a commitment. To the sub it symbolizes trust, loyalty, love, obedience, safety, and commitment. (I'm sure I left out a couple of things, but those are the ones that are important to me.) In my opinion, unless all of those boxes are checked, I would never accept one.

Anyways, that's my 2 cents. Feel free to keep the change. :rose:
