There is a website called Females in Control, which is dedicated to the subject of FemDom.

There is a very good article titled, "The Courtship of a Dominant Woman". I have made this mandatory reading for perspective subs.

I got to thinking about courtship in the lifestyle. Who does the courting?

I know that I am courted by male (and sometimes female) submissives, but are male Doms courted? Or does societal norms hold true and Male Doms have to court femail submissives?

Does the Law of Supply and Demand hold true in kink?

What do you think?
 
Well I courted all my submissives. I have been asked but somehow it just felt like they weren't sinsire. There are just so many with the romantic notion of this and just want to feel it a little while. Just my two cents.

Where's the "I'm a slut and like to be courted by many" option?

I am withholding that option from you cause you want it soo bad.

Suffer, wench.

Thanks, snooze.

Maybe you should moo more?
 
As a female sub/slave, I always felt it was more appropriate to be courted by the Dominant. This had nothing to do with stereotypical courting ideas though as I have agressively courted vanilla men in the past (and won them...LOL). I found the Dominants I was attracted to were OK with my making initial contact, but the courting was definately expected to be initiated by them.

I think it has been a combination for me...the submissives have generally made contact with me, and then I turn it around and court the ones I am interested in.;)

That's a hint, BTW...I expect my inbox to be full by this time tomorrow.

Despite the manwhore 'claim to fame', I think Johnny has nailed it... Submissives generally 'present' themselves in some fashion and then it is in the Dominiant's court. They (Dom/mes) then court the ones they are interested in....... HOWEVER, I also think that we subs can be VERY interesting when we want to be. :)

i'm definitely the courted sub. i'm not high-maintenance in terms of money or fancy things, but i do demand oodles of attention.

Not necessarily.

I do not court submissives. They court Me. See I have the law of supply and demand in My favor.

I cannot see you courting anyone or ever having the need to.

You lucky woman, you!

Well I do not court submissives, but I do court a certain booty in this forum.

In the I am courted section.

Lonely, I'm so lonely...

Well, in the courting part... I envy you. ;-)

Courting means watching me do 30 situps a day. LOL
