When i was first trained i was taught that to cry during a scene was considered disrespectful to the Dominate, no matter what was occurring during the scene... the amount of pain, emotion, etc. That my acceptance and tolerance of the scene, in a somewhat quiet manner, was what was expected.

Just recently i have started to realize that was ONE persons way of doing things... That my not only having but sharing a strong emotion, be it through tears or other outlets, during a scene is appropriate and actually expected/desired. That realization has been amazing and actually very freeing in it's own way... now the trick is to just remembering it when things get intense...

Thanks for sharing too.

I suppose in a way I had stopped myself in the past from crying, not because, as your previous Dominant had you believe, I thought it disrespectful but more out of a stubborn pride. Now I realise I can let go of that sort of pride and need for control as it has no place as I move forward with my training and experiences.

The fact is I was standing there hoping and coaxing the tears to come for me but instead I got a whole other delightful experience!!

TDS - I have been thinking about how you find your sub crying a turn on and I think there maybe a discussion ahead for Master and I. I think the thought off my mascara streaked face might do a little something for him too!
