quit debating and resume the compliments!

*waves a riding crop around threateningly*

i have a whippy thing and i don't know how to use it! *smacks the tip down on the desk, three feet from the target...*

lmao

I'll stop, I'll stop! Just stay away from me with that thing. ~giggles~ I'm not sure I'd trust someone that DID know how to use it to get near me with it but I'm sure as heck not ticking of someone that doesn't!

Pictures! We want pictures!
 
You're such a cutie.
I can sympathise with the pale skin part.
It took me two counters and 45 minutes to find foundation - Clinique didn't make one light enough, I had to go to MAC.
and I bruise super easily.
One night I went to a party and pretty much spent the evening getting drunk. I ended up lying on a friend of mine for most of the evening, not that he was complaining.
Anyway, I guess at one point I was squirming a little too much for his comfort and wouldn't move my butt when he asked...
So he grabbed me and moved me himself. I yelled, "Ow!" but no one really took much notice.
The next day, I stumble downstairs to get some water in a short nightshirt and Mum takes one look and says, "Have a good time at the party?"
My response. "Huh?"
She said - "Go look in a mirror."
I go into the powder room, turn around, and there on my butt and thighs are two distinct handprints.
She could see the fingers 'cause the nightshirt was short.
I don't think I ever really convinced her that they weren't from rough sex...
So I know about bruises, yeah. I found a place near here that sells arnica gel though. Not sure about tablets.
And looking at your butt can i just say OWWW?
Did it bruise at all?

roflmao @ your story, that's hilarious!

but yeah, i'm insanely bruised. I don't wear makeup, but that gel, it helps clear bruises up? i've never heard of it?

It was recommended to me by people here - I've heard good things about it.
It's available in tablet, cream, and gel form, and is usually available in health food stores and the like.
A tube here is about $20.
It helps with circulation etc.
I keep meaning to buy it, and keep forgetting. ;)
I'd say give it a try!
 
well, I do sorta like the bruises ;) but it's nice to know there're options. :catroar:

.... But for Geoff to elaborate on that risk on one thread, and encourage a 24-year-old woman to throw caution to the wind on another, is (in my opinion) hypocritical and outrageous.

I like and respect him as a person. But I think he is way off base here.

Hi alice,

Sorry you feel that way, but I don't find my attitude hypocritical at all.

#1 - Chicklet uses her face in her av pic, and has been using it for some time. Sorry, but ANY concern over Chicklet's anonymity is already gone.

#2 - Chicklet has made that decision, to be out about herself and her interest in this lifestyle, and I respect that.

#3 - Since she's out and evidently a bit of an exhibitionist, I see no harm in encouraging her to be herself.

#4 - Neither _your_ concerns and fears, nor _mine_, should define Chicklet's level of acceptable risk. HERS should. For example, _I_ consider jumping out of perfectly good, working airplanes and trusting your life to a bit of silk and rope to be insanely dangerous. I won't do it (at least no yet, I am not that brave or crazy at this point in my life). But if Chicklet were to declare an interest in skydiving, I would not hestitate to encourage her to do so. It's not hypocrisy, it's allowing others the freedom to determine their own course of action.

#5 - I post MY face on the net all over the place. Here, collarme, ALT.com, my own personal web site... I am facing the same risk if not moreso, of being outted, and I am perfectly willing to accept that risk. So I don't find it hypocritical of me of me at all to encourage Chicklet to post her pics if it pleases _her_ to do so.

I'm sorry alice, but you've taken my argument out of thread and out of context. I was defending the decision of SOME who do NOT want to post their pics on line, and I was explaining why we should respect that decision. I was not, in any way shape or form arguing that NO ONE should post their pics.

We, as a community, have to respect the privacy concerns of others. THAT is the sacred trust I was refering to. I was not, never have, never will argue that no one should be out, that no one should post their pics, that we should all hide and be safe and anonymous. But if someone wants to remain anonymous, then by God we need to protect that privacy because of what can happen.

But if someone wants to dress in their leathers, put on their collar and corset, walk down Main street while wearing a leash, during rush hour, then as long as they understand the risks and accept them, it's not my place to tell them "don't do it!" I'll encourage them to live their life as they see fit. As long as they aren't exposing others to that risk, then carry on, carry on!

This type of encouragement is fully understandable and, in fact, wonderful if one has reason to believe that (a) the risk-taker is fully aware of the risks involved, and (b) the risk-taker is in a mental place where a fully rational decision on taking a critical risk can be made.

It was extremely presumptuous of me to assume that Chicklet might fall outside either or both of those categories.

I apologize to both of you for my comments on this thread.

Can I just say that that is one of the classiest apologies I've seen in a while?
Good stuff, alice.
 
Heehee! Rats rats rats. Rats are so cute. A perfect backdrop for an adorable you.

*smiles* I never thought an apology was necessary, alice, but like brioche said, that's gotta be the classiest apology I've seen in a while and I will certainly have the good grace and class to accept it. I understood that your concern and care for Chicklet was your motivation, not a desire to disrespect or hurt me personally.

Such friendship and care shared among our community is a good thing. Thank you for that!
