ok, if anyone says anything catty I'll shove a 20 inch dildo up their bum. Leave the catty at the door, much as I love it.

Noobs, deposit whatever question you want here or insight or whatever, I don't care if you are online or off or a fet freak or a 24/7 online gorean kajira.

Others chime in, remember the golden rule, no poo-pooing.

I can order that dildo online if I need it, I mean it!
 
See I really can do welcoming and nice and sugar-sweet, I can.

Um, Netz . . . that might not be much a threat to some of the people here. . . they might like that!
 
20?

Come on, girlfriend, you KNOW how long that is....

even the most hardened of assbabies out there is bound to squeak.

Ben gay, I'll put ben gay all over it tooooo!
 
But I'm not kidding, all kidding aside, I am not trying to get this moved to the cafe, I shall be on better behavior.

I do not want this to be a noob-unfriendly place.

I am not the most soft-edged of people, but I want others to be relatively at ease and able to know they are not alone -- I have been a novice perv, making a furtive city pages blind date and going "what the fuck am I doing?"

We have all been there. Think back, all of you non noobs.

that said: disagreement is not the same as giving someone shit.

Just keep that in mind.

I'm not saying they won't squeek, or cry. But some of them like to squeek and cry. Remember, they're masochists. :D Now the bengay, that might be the deal breaker for them. lol
 
hehehe, maybe if it was 10 I'd give it a try but 20 is a bit much, the bengay too ;)

I know this makes me look really stupid, but what is a noob?

http://www.smilies4you.de/content/sonstige/a39.gif Well this thread could be promising but for now I will reserve judgement. Initially I thought it more Cafe appropriate, but can see it as a Talk thread under the right circumstances. Netz, you certainly have the personality and expertise to give a lot of relevant info to http://www.smilies4you.de/content/sonstige/c26.gif. I hope that is the way it goes and people remember they are adults.

Ooooh, you picked a hard one. And it's rare that we get to hear from people with the "help, my boyfriend is a Dom!" problem.

Well, it's going to vary a lot from person to person. If you are to ask me what I like about bondage and having someone follow directions, you're actually going to get a somewhat surprising answer (and yes, I'm leaving SM and harder D/s out of it, I agree it's not appropriate to the conversation)

What I enjoy is fundamentally, knowing that my partner trusts me that much.

I can't articulate *why* that's erotic, or so powerful...but when I tie my lover and do things to him, and he doesn't know what they are but trusts me not to do anything totally repugnant or bad to him, I find that very sublime.

Now, what is and is not ok is mapped out beforehand. The difficult thing about BD and SM and any kind of sexuality that really takes a wild twist is that you do have to talk explicitly about it. What you will and will not do, what he would like to do and not like to do. You can't just leave him sit at "it doesn't matter" if you are going to play this out, you've got to both sit and have a chat. That doesn't have to be torture - it can be the kind of chat you might initiate while gently fondling his nuts.

I also enjoy the process of hearing someone confess their turn ons. And being tied down with my pantyhose or cuffed, well that kind of creates the right backdrop to all that, makes it a hot, interrogation-like process.

A Dom often gets off on adding the elements of power, intimacy, and control. Seeing what you are and are not willing to do purely because they are your lover and they want you to. Am I right, guys?

Maybe it is a kind of testing, who knows, maybe we didn't get hugged enough as toddlers, but the point is, this is what makes someone like me tick.

Oh, and people --especially men-- are often turned on by media that goes way out onto sexual limbs they may not ever actually go out onto - so don't let the stories or pics freak you badly.

Believe me - I know this - I'm a professional Domme. A lot of men come to me professing to want to be caged naked and helpless and jobless for the rest of their days and we both know they would not last an hour. Your sweetie may be reading caged bitches of planet bleep, but don't take the rhetoric to heart quite yet.

Some people DO have very deep seated needs to alter their lifestyle around their BDSM D/s orientation and it's a very big part of their life. For most, it is a kind of specialized foreplay. Only time and experimentation will tell you which it is for your SO.

Don't go in with a desire to "fake it" though. Just be yourself, be real, be honest in your reactions. The worst thing I can think of, the least erotic, is doing bondage with someone who's secretly or not so secretly bored to tears.

I have one for you Netz. I went to Colorado last week to work on a car and visit friends and see my ex who I've been trying to get back into my life. Now, she is pretty damn dominant, outspoken, driven in her lifes goals, etc... I always sensed a submissive streak in her in bed though it took a while.

So we spent time together and she tries to be tough and hard around me but it usually only takes me about twenty minutes to melt that facade away but this time it is different. She has finally admitted to me that she is submissive and has also just admitted it to herself. She is really not happy with the concept of being submissive right now and is still fighting it but it's in her nature and I agreed to be her Dom. I want to bring her to acceptance that being submissive is a good thing and will fulfill her once she's comfortable with it but this is entirely new to me. I mean, she just has admitted to herself that she's a sub!

She is going to go to Florida for about a year so it's also going to be long distance just to add more difficulty. I want to accomplish several things with her initially. I want to help her to be comfortable with her submissive nature, I want to feel out and expand her submissiveness and fulfill her needs but I also want to do it in a way that leaves me firmly in control. I want to bulletproof her from being manipulated by others and I want her little ass with me, eventually. I have the distinct feeling that she is a lot more submissive than even she admits to. Right now she will only admit to needing emotional support but from our history I know that she is only truly comfortable with me when I'm in complete control of situations, most of the time just by being physically present. She is also very comforted by the way other men almost automatically defer to me. Feels safe I suppose since she was physically abused by a stepfather as a child.

So, Netz. I have some specific goals with this but I'm not sure how to feel the situation out. I want to exert enough control and support to make her feel centered and taken care of and maybe push a little but I'm not sure how much, how soon, etc...

Any thoughts on this?
 
I forgot to mention, if anyone at all has any feedback feel free to pm me if you don't want to fill up Netz's topic.

Astute. She's probably also proud, obstinate, independent and scared as shit. This is not how she wants to see herself.

These are internal issues, like it or not. She is the only one who can figure out how sub she is, in what aspects of her life (how far outside the bedroom does it go?) etc. All you can do at this rather tenuous stage is to listen, and ask the right questions, and try to remain emotionally uninvested and not *leading* in the answers. Very hard to do when you want that sub for yourself. But ultimately, if she answers the questions the way she thinks you want them to be answered instead of honestly, you are in for big trouble.

I want to help her to be comfortable with her submissive nature



This is step one, in my mind. Everything else is kind of getting ahead of the game. If this doesn't happen, you are dead in the water. And this is not something you get to control. This is something she has to figure out, so, the more you are just calm, present, patient, and reasonable, the more this will take root, if she's indeed submissive. This is where you put the deposits into the trust bank.



I want to feel out and expand her submissiveness and fulfill her needs but I also want to do it in a way that leaves me firmly in control.


I want to bulletproof her from being manipulated by others and I want her little ass with me, eventually. I have the distinct feeling that she is a lot more submissive than even she admits to.


These are all withdrawls you can make from your eventually banked trust. This is step 2, 4, 8 etc.

Right now she will only admit to needing emotional support

Start there. If she's not admitting more, she's not feeling safe to admit more. Respecting that will go a long way, patience will go a long way. I'd point her towards other sub resources, towards other subs, towards writing by subs about their experiences that showcases the fact that submissive does not equal the things she probably feels it does at this point.

That is right on the money. She is also beautiful, talented and intelligent.

I do everything I can to give her comfortable room to think about everything. It does go outside of the bedroom quite a bit but only with me and then probably only because I've never shown her anything but courtesy and respect. She knows how important to me she is.

This is where you put the deposits into the trust bank.

Having no control over this is frustrating. I will do my best though to figure out where she is in this and encourage her. I still have a goal though and will have her but I've never hidden that from her. She knows exactly what I'm about.

I am hoping that it helps that I've told her this. I do talk to her about what I'm doing and why and what my intentions with her are. I don't do it in an overly aggressive way but she knows everything. She still buries herself in my shoulder and holds me in a way that lets me know she needs me.

It is pretty tricky, I'm there for all the support she needs but pushing her is counterproductive. She rebels very energetically in that case but if I open up and show her that I need her without mentioning anything else she will respond in time. Usually within a couple of days. It seems to go around her defenses to just let her figure it out on her own. I'm just concerned about being able to achieve my own personal goals while doing this, especially long distance. I'm trying to firmly establish myself as her Dom and lock out everyone else.

If you build the foundation I'm talking about, that's going to happen, no one else will remotely have a chance at making her feel safe enough to be herself, no one else will know her as well. Particularly alpha submissives/subs with assertive personalities tend to be very very very *picky* about who they submit to, guarded about that submission.

The fact that you are not pushing her into constant rebellions is going a long way with her, I will bet money.

Slowly, after this groundwork has been set, then you might start to introduce rules and boundaries and some complexity to it. But you will be doing that with someone who is more confident in her submissive self, it will be eminently easier and less likely to send her screaming.

I'm not saying don't be authoritative. I'm not saying let her walk on you. Set rules of respect now. Follow the rules you set towards her no matter what her behavior looks like. Don't tolerate shitty behavior now, but make obedience seem easy, sane, simple, do-able. Make obeying you seem perfectly natural and reasonable, issue natural and reasonable requests.

This is, in my experience, a way to *normalize* submission for the new submissive who is afraid I won't respect him in the morning.

Calm, unloaded things, for me and mine ....things like "Please get me another coffee, thank you darling...."
"I want you to go down on me"
"I like the way you look in the black corduroys, wear those."
Whatever those more mundane things are, your mileage will vary. See if you can make it almost feel like everyday life, not like submission.

I simply wanted to counter the alleged hostility around here, I'm too clueless to off-board PM relations between people to know about the details thereof.

You have a wonderful grasp of this. Thanks for the advice and insight. It seems that I'm on the right path here but still have a long way to go. I can see some things I've been doing that aren't helpful and that I need to correct in the boundary and rule area. She needs something to be in control of to grasp onto. She is trying to use distance for that but I need to exchange that for something else that she can be in control of but that brings her closer to me. Something that will build up that trust bank you spoke of. It's going to be tricky. I'm exhausted so I have to sleep but let's continue this later.

You are great Netz!
 
I agree that there has been some hostility towards new people, but I feel that your example will most likely make people think twice before jumping down a newbie's throat. (Except where said action is obviously warranted by their actions on the board)

As for your advice, I feel you are emminently qualified to discuss some of these issues, as you have experienced them in previous situations, and had the oportunity to determine what works for you.

I'm glad Betticus asked this question as I have been dealing with a similar situation, albiet not nearly as far along on the realization scale. Your advice on the matter has put into words (far more eloquently than I can) what I had set upon as the course to take in my case as well.

Thank You.
 
ya know... I don't know what it has been about this break/this month... but everyone has been pretty katty on Lit. Old and new, GB or not. Its quite annoying.

There has been a bit of hostility here and there and there needs to be a "golden rule" review or something I think.
 
Netzach:
" ok, if anyone says anything catty I'll shove a 20 inch dildo up their bum."

You will *try* to shove one, you mean.

"Noobs, deposit whatever question you want here or insight or whatever, I don't care if you are online or off or a fet freak or a 24/7 online gorean kajira."

Damn, I'm not a noobie. On the other hand, it's a newbie question so I'll ask anyway.

How do you know?
 
I must say that I completely disagree. I think cattiness and dissent are excellent signs of vitality. I've been promoting the GB spirit here for some time. I think the "circle-the-wagons", one-for-all-all-for-one subculture days of perversity and BDSM are over; it is time to grow and to split into warring camps.
