What, another blog?

[tiez]

So, a switch friend and I are planning to start a blog. As an effort into making ourselves write, for our own good, and to share with others how it is that we 'do it'. What do we do? We share a BDSM relationship while I am married with kids and she is separated (soon to be divorced) with kids. We have a great relationship both inside and outside the BDSM side of our relationship. Our spouses both know that we're playing in BDSM and we all get along fine. We have family events together (vanilla) and we each watch each other's kids as needed.

But people continue to be amazed at our ability to be so good together in scene and out. And they like knowing that our partners know. Indeed, it is, I think, in some ways like a poly relationship, and certainly takes a lot of the effort like a poly relationship.

So, well, we're thinking that what we want to blog about is our play together, our interactions together and not just the mechanics of how we do things, but also our feelings. In some ways, it'll be confessional, admitting to each other, through writing some of the more nuanced feeling between each other.

If you were to read a blog about two switches in our situation, is there anything in particular that you'd be interested in reading? Any suggestions as to what topics you might like to hear about?

And I know, the blog is what we make of it, it's ours, after all, but I do wonder what people have already beat to death, as topics, and what people might want to hear more of as well.

Your suggestions welcome, thanks.

Sorry, I am no help as I just don't read the damned things nor see a lot of value in them. Perhaps it is a reflection of my dislike for the way society and particularly entertainment has moved into the area of being a tell all by every Tom Dick or Harry without an obvious reason why anyone would want to know what colour knickers they wore to work or what they ate for breakfast. I think we have become a very narcissistic society where if you trip on your front doorstep it automatically needs to become a book. Good luck with it though as I know many here read them and will be able to help you more than I. It is just my personal thing and I know for some it serves a good purpose, just isn't something I run to find and devour.

I would love to read anything basically - it would be nice to see some insights from another switch. I like blogs when people blog for themselves or as if they are speaking to a friend. It can be cathartic for the blogger, it can give someone else who happens to read it a new perspective or even an AHA moment. I do grow tired of some bloggers who fall into pandering for their perceived audiences.

I follow a couple hundred blogs. Many are food/nutrition based but a good portion are sex bloggers who are active in the community (BDSM, leather, gender, GLBT). PM me your blog addy if you want and I will blogroll you.

Good luck!
