Those of us consciously walking a path of intentional and consistent D/s have come across times when we wonder about our personal capacities and those of the people with whom we have association. We seek inside ourselves, we go to conferences, read books, mentor, attend workshops, munches, review Leather history, ...

It has been only in the last four years or so that my notions of this type of play expanded beyond "adult baby" play (diapers, nursing, etc) and I always thought that sex was involved somehow. (Strange since my personal kinks don't follow that kind of template.)
Personally, I have never ...

So I go to this thing which is a monthly conversation among Dominants. Frankly, it's among males Dominants and me. Very interesting. MEN. **sigh**
It's good because the perspective is different and as a whole this group of people has thought about things differently than I have. I think I have more reference ...

I found this on a forum I belong to: Dark Connections, which is an online Yahoo group for Black and PoC practitioners of BDSM and their allies. A lot of folks here attend the Annual Black Beat Conference every year.
Anyways... this is particularly timely given some of the conversations I've ...

Went to a gathering this week and re-met the most interesting woman. She put me onto a group at Fetlife based on a conversation we were having: http://fetlife.com/groups/179/group_posts/37280
Curious about other people's connection to humiliation and degradation.
My contribution to the thread is basically as follows:

A plan is officially afoot to do the next D/s Dinner/salon. You can expect the gathering to occur the week of December 8 in the evening - most likely a private residence.
A library of D/s and M/s books will be on hand for casual perusal, along with a high level ...

Napping in the afternoon means a sleepless night... I came across this from the Ms Development Centre while doing some research and fell in love with the ...

I'm starting to feel excited! My first trip to San Fran!
I'll be arriving on Thursday, November 20, for Leather Traditions, a weekend intensive for Dominants which goes from the Friday to the Sunday. It's got an application/reference process to get in and is limited to 25 people. I think it ...

I've got Littles in my life. And I've been known to haul out my own pre-pubescent bad-babysitter to torment those within my focus. In February 2008 I wet to a fab session facilitated by Lee, and ...

Took a serious break from my learning path this year. Life indeed what happens to you while you're busy making other plans.
I committed myself at the beginning of the year to expanding my understanding, skill and network of people - locally and afield - in the area of Dominance/submission and ...

Soon I'll be on my way to Black Beat. A conference I've been wanting (and fearing) to attend for five years or so.
http://www.blackbeatinc.org/
I can't wait to surround myself with black kinksters. To be able to walk into a space where I don't have to explain so many things about how ...

Oh the conversations I get into.
So it came down to shows like Dexter, Nip Tuck, surgical improvement/intervention shows are feed/food. I've been hearing about the History Channel airing something today about the history of torture?
I remember the open scene of a recent James Bond film where our hero was being ...

Tough night for me. And that's the truth not the hype. I went in feeling physically unwell and found myself being psychically attacked. Ah well... skunks have no idea about the impact on the world around them either. Which doesn't excuse but it is the fact.

I was engaged in the second of a quarterly series of conversations: The D/s Dinner/salon. At the point that things slid sideways in the conversation for me, I was trying to respond to something that a top was commenting on around why people come to the scene (and D/s) but ...

How amazing.
I think I can safely say that folks were challenged and learned and came away with food for thought.
Many thanks to all that showed up and to those who had good intent but were unable to attend. A lot of the women who attended the first one were present ...

One of the attendees took some notes and agreed to have them published. Wasn't that kind?
There's some good food for thought in them. Questions that deserve to be answered. Tasty.
Many thanks for the generosity.

I have one word: LEECHES
It was cruel and terrible and fun. Would I have really done it? On some days I thought I would. But to do it I'd have to deal with the fuckers. Topping myself to mindfuck another is meeeeeeesssssed UP!
Remind me to tell you the story of ...
