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 over view of the Leather Traditions Weekend Intensive for Dominants I just completed in San Fransisco (short and sweet I promise). More details to cum.

In the meantime… Are there any thoughts about what might go on the conversational agenda? Big thinks, little thinks, personal, community…

I’d be interested in talking about:

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 don’t stay.

And in my long-winded getting-myself-in-trouble-again way what was on my mind was that what is obvious when folks walk into a play space is the activity of BDSM which in it’s complex manifestations can trigger the psyche of people. And that if one is interested, as I was when I came to the scene, in the dynamics that can occur between intimates, that can be troublesome. Because those like-minded people are present, but one may have to acclimate to things that are troubling in order to make those connections. And that can feel like walk through goose shit covered grass to get to the beach.

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 and there were a lot of new faces too. The conversation was such that I didn’t count until after things had officially ended and at that time there were 14 people still hanging onto the conversation.

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.

This is the first in a series of serious conversations about D/s
On April 22, 2008 the second of an intended quarterly series of D/s Dinner/salons will take place. The intent is to come together to discuss the cerebral (D/s) as opposed to the technical (bdsm) side of some what we all find more than just a little bit HAWT.

Here are my notes from the first session. More questions than answers… I regret that I wasn’t so clever as to have included attributions. Which sucks because in both cases the knowledge in the room was humbling:

My conversations over the past few weeks combined with the personal commitment I made to myself at the beginning of this year is moving my mojo.

So I’m doing more than thinking about it. I’m putting my time and money where my desire is.

I’ve booked a space in Vancouver late-April-ish and am yacking with a couple of people about donating their personal space for a preliminary conversation (mostly to download the info I’ve collected so far this year at Leather Reign, Lupercalia and Midori’s Mapping Your D/s Archetype worshop) in early-April-ish.

I hope folks will be willing to sit down on a regular basis to stretch their brains, and that those with Herstory will showup and engage in transmitting/sharing that info to a receptive group.

I’ll make sure you know what’s when. OK?
