Help...I can't switch...


Huh?
Just a few hours after seeing this, I find this commercial mentioned in a book I´m reading.

Ooooh, Twilight Zone! :eek:

I know, I almost heard that music.:)
I wonder if Rosco is reading the same book or is it a commercial that is mentioned often?
I remember those commercials/ads. They pissed me off enough that I wrote to the American Tobacco Company complaining about their poor grammar. I think I was ... 14? 15? And yes, I also wrote to RJR around the same time, complaining about *their* poor grammar in the Winston commercials/ads.

ETA: Neither company ever replied, even though I threatened never to use their products. :rolleyes:
 
Here's a thought. Anything you're being made to do or asked to do by someone else (beyond, could you? hell yeah!) isn't "dominating." You may have more of a dominant streak than you give yourself credit for in your disinterest in being a fetish realdoll to this guy. Which is fine, I can't blame you.

That said, like BiBunny I call bullshit on almost all conclusions reached with no experimental method used. When someone's list of "things that turn my stomach" starts to get much longer than "pets" and "kids" I start hearing "blah blah blah".

I think the thread title give you your answer. If you can't do it, you shouldn't. Of course, if you want to try, that's one thing. But once you've tried and realized that you can't, don't you have your answer?

He doesn't accept it, when you say you can't? That would be a red flag for me. To me, this sounds like a mild form of abuse. He can't turn you into a Mistress. It has to be inside of you. Tell him to drop it, or drop him.

14 or 15? :eek: :eek: I knew the commercial was old, but damn...! :D
 
Huh? I'm confused. He's 32...
He's a baby.

(We have some proof of that, actually, vis the things she's told us-- that no matter how clearly she tells him she can't and wont do domming, he doesn't get it.)
 
I'm starting to really feel like there is something to be said for switching.

My core interests are dominant, but in a relationship... I could see how being on the other side of the whip could... sort of expand the deck.

I feel like I'm not explaining myself well. This is a tough thing for me to cop to. With a woman I really trusted and loved, I would want to switch with her I think. I would want to let her dominate me, so she could see how much I trusted her, how I respected her even when she was a complete whore and victim for me.

I've been watching Aeon Flux recently. Somehow I feel like a cartoon that was incomprehensible to me as an 11 year old had a tremendous effect on my sexual development. For those unfamiliar, it follows the bizarre romantic/adversary relationship between a nihilistic totalitarian dictator and the supersmooth femmegod dominatrix terrorist out to destroy him.

The characters are so vain and amoral, their larger plans constantly being undermined by the pettiest of desires and ego trips.

In one episode, the titular anti-heroine discovers that Trevor Goodchild (aforementioned ruler) has figured out how to clone people. She secretly offers him a genetic sample, which he uses to create a clone of her. The clone then reunites with Aeon, where they switch places and agree on an unspoken plan. Aeon offers herself willingly to Trevor, but he can sense something is amiss and is turned off, unsatisfied - despite having a harem of Aeon Flux lookalike whores. He needs her to be, herself.

To seduce him, she has to become herself, but once she does, she finds herself incredibly happy in his arms. Her clone returns to inquire as to why they haven't acted on their plan yet, which was to have one Aeon Flux kill the other, to hurt Trevor after he had fallen in love. But Aeon was in love too now, and eventually the clone demands Aeon end herself in a commitment to her original identity. Trevor tiredly watches her go, knowing his heart's truest desire is too dear for his possessing.

It made me think about the woman I spent the last 4 years with. How I would've liked to quiver in fear and anguish before her as she tortured me, just once.
 
As a side note, Aeon Flux is still to this day one of the very best animes I have ever seen in my life. I really don't think any other medium will ever be able to display the level of raw emotive nihilism and primal humanity that Aeon Flux did.

The damn thing was a work of art. Every single episode was better than the last.
