I think that the end result of the cyber age on BDSM will be a more mainstream acceptance of it and us! People are exploring and learning things every day that they would otherwise never have had teh ability or means to investigate.

Further, if not for the internet, I would have still been fumbling around in the nilla world, wondering what was missing. I am certain, I am not alone in that thought.

As for cyber play, as Mistress Steele suggests, I do believe that for some, they may never leave their computer screens and explore in real time. And that is okay!!!!! Cyber BDSM is a another means of BDSM practice, another "kink" if you will.

Just my two cents
