		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been thinking A LOT about how there are lots of workshops at lots of conferences dealing with BDSM 101, 201, 301, etc. But I have never seen anything about modified BDSM practices. And that is not only from the stand point of those who are aging, but for those who have temporary, long term <a href='http://nubianimp.com/2005/modifying-bdsm-practices/' class='excerpt-more'>[...]</a>]]></description>

Being small means that there are times when F/folks underestiment what I am capable of. On the other hand, there are times where I steadfastly insist that because I&#8217;m little&#8230; there&#8217;s Ab-sol-lute-ly No-thing to be afraid of&#8230; heheheheh&#8230; &#8220;I&#8217;m <a href='http://nubianimp.com/2005/size-means-nothing/' class='excerpt-more'>[...]</a>]]></description>
