My Introduction

[fwss]

Hello,

i've been a member for a while, but never introduced myself here. i have got so much from the threads on these boards (besides, obviously, the stories) that i thought i should.

i'm 34, English, male and an owned slave. i will be moving from the UK to Canada by the end of this year to live with my Mistress, and i can't wait.

i'd be humbly grateful if you took a look at my blog sometime, at www.livejournal.com/users/ownedbitch

i don't really have any friends in the 'bdsm community', and would welcome comments in the blog (good or bad, truly) or any contact from anyone who likes to discuss submission, slavery, obstacles, delights, anything. And, if You happen to enjoy watching humiliation, Mistress is quite keen on letting others view some of our webcam sessions.

Besides being a slave, I'm into poker, reading voraciously, leftish politics, philosophy, sports...

Thanks for listening.

[Breathless]

Thanks so much for the "welcome" Kaori-san. Does anyone have suggestions regarding their favorite stories and/or authors? There is SO MUCH here that it is overwhelming!

Today at work my boss hosted a lunch so that the employees - many of whom are new - could get to know each other a little better. As we sat and ate our Chinese take-out, he asked us to go around the room and tell the others "something about ourselves that most people don't know". I almost choked on my eggroll thinking how this was just about the only thing people don't know about me, and wondering what their reaction would be to such a revelation. Who knows - maybe I'd have found a playmate!

Hello there! My name is Ali but I have been going by the name Blue in the Academy forum. I have been reading stories in the library for quite some time now and have just recently started to join the forums the library offers. Like Breathless not a whole lot of people know that I'm a female submissive. Just recently I was filling out some questions on a dating service site and it asked "What is one thing that only your best friends know?" Hmmm...I was tempted to write "I'm a female submissive," but I thought that might be too much information right away. Well I just wanted to say hi to everyone, so hi. *Waves hand to everyone*

Dear Members of the board,

my name is Alexandra, I live in Bavaria, Germany. I have been writing
for a long time, but mostly non-erotic stories.
I like to read a lot and found the Library years ago.
Yes, and: I just posted my second story in here, but it is
in german language, for my english is not good enough for
writing in general.
I like to read stories from very extreme to mild themes, not
only bdsm-related, other eotic stories to.
My favorites are reluctant/humiliation/degradation-themes.
Dunno why exactly, but I find it thrilling somehow.

So, I am always up to new ideas, and so on.

I am not active in real life, but I like to fantasize and dream a lot.

Alexandra

[chinawank]

Hi,

I am a chinese, and live in Shanghai, china.

Hope I am not the first/only chinese member here. I have many spanking fantasies from childhood, and later find I am passionate to nearly all BDSM topics.

As most Chinese citizens, I am living a busy live with high pressure and limited fun time. However, I will try my best to visit the site more, for I find this space lovely and very resourceful.

[Ranai]

*Waves to all the new people onboard.*

Hi all,

I am new here (that's what this thread is for eh?), and have joined because my girlfriend is very intrigued by BDSM, and has been on the 'scene' in previous relationships. She wants to bring this more into our relationship (not in life, just in play) and I am open enough to try it, especially since I have always liked kinky sex.

My problem is that I don't have the confidence to dominate her, and worry that I'll dissappoint her. We have discussed this openly, but I still don't have the confidence, even though we have played some scenes out and they have gone fairly well. As such, I thought that I would come here and try to learn about myself and others to try to help me reach a point I am comfortable at.

From what I have read I think that these forums may be a big step towards nice that!

Speak to you all soon

[lil-rrh]

Wow, what a cosmopolitan board, I love how the planet feels smaller on the Internet.

OK, a little about me? Well I live in east-coast Scotland and work from home as a self-employed programmer/designer for boring computer related stuff, in saying that I really enjoy it . I have recently bitten the bullet and decided to open up my writing to critic, as I know the only way I'll improve is by getting some feedback. I'm a shy person and probably won't have much to say on the boards, but, well, if you all promise not to bite... heheh. I feel quite nervous about showing any stuff I've done to anyone, but at least this site provides the perfect forum for help and a good frame-work for learning (plus I can skuttle off, if it gets too much! lol)

So, Hello all <wavey smiley>

Wecome to this some plant. I hope that you will find a lot of interesting topics and storys that will help you in your own writing.

on a personal note. I am also into the computers about I am the man in the back room, looking after all the hardware and software. giggle.

[verotica]

Everytime I login, there is a new member that has joined.

<peering around in the dark corners>Where are you? Please, join in, we won't hurt you - well, unless you want us to, that is! And even then, you have to beg first.

Tell us who you are, where you are, your special interests and delights - you know, anything.

And if you're a sub, looking for an on-line MIstress, let me know ...

Hey there,

I saw the post welcoming new people and was shy at first but thought I'd say hello.

Obviously I am new here and don't know anyone (yet), but surely it's about introducing yourself and finding people to relate to etc.

My name's Kylie and I'm from Australia. I enjoy photography, reading, music and of course bdsm. I've been experimenting with submission and bondage for a few years and enjoy reading about other people's experiences, and hope to meet some alike people and have some great conversations.

Take care

[Rosie]

I've been a lurker here for some time, and thought I should finally join in. I am English, and have had sub tendencies for as long as I can remember, but have only recently realised why - mainly due to the information on the Internet.

Pleased to meet you, guys!

[Breathless]

I'm still a newcomer here myself, but wanted to say "Welcome" to all the new folks (and "Don't be shy!" to all the lurkers).

I've found the people at this site to be among the most friendly, non-judgmental and interesting group around. I think a lot of the credit for that goes to our wonderful BDSM Tour Guide - he is amazing.

For all you veterans - any particular threads, chats or other suggestions for us rookies?

[THE Traveller]

It's great to see you here Welcome to the "BDSM Library". Hope you'll enjoy your stay here.

To answer your question; there are some members here who also go online over at "House of Abductor's" ( aka. "House of Bondage" ), indeed.

BTW, I've always liked your signature quote and wanted to ask you if it's from somewhere else? I thought Breathless M. could be standing for Breathless Mahooney, a character from the D. Tracy serial?

See you around.

Traveller

PS. Can't wait to read the next chapter of "Yard Work".

[Breathless]

Thanks for the welcome, Traveller. Yes, the quote is from "Dick Tracy", although the reason you may not recognize it is because it's from the musical version (so it's Madonna's lyrics). The whole song sums up my feelings about BDSM so well that I couldn't resist taking the name (or keeping the quote for both sites).

I've slowed down on my writing (hence the delay in posting additional chapters of "Yard Work" primarily due to being caught up in one of the Abductor classics (Outlaw & Redhead Sue's story). I can't bring myself to stop reading, which I'm sure you'll understand.

By the way, thank you for the kind comments on my photo. Took a lot of convincing to get DH to agree to let me post it (let alone get him to take it!) so it's nice to get some feedback.

Would love to see photos from the rest of the gang here!

[Phantome]

Hiya, all! I've been hanging around here for several weeks now, and finally decided to register so I could post. I'm glad to be here! Anyway, here's a quick overview of me: I'm a student, I'm engaged, and I hopefully graduate this year. I'm studying music education and classical performance. I'm interested in music, art, literature (snore....). I promise I'm not as boring as I sound! I'm politically liberal, an avid cat lover, enthusiastic traveller, amateur chef, wannabe landscapist, and social butterfly.

I just wanted to drop in and let everyone know I'm here, but I've got to sign off; tomorrow is the first day of school, and I'm already ready for the semester to be over. T-minus 6 hours until the first class of the day, and I gotta get some sleep....

Greetings Phantome,

i am also a student, however, i am studying Psychology with minors in Communcations, Women/Gender studies/ Photography and am thinking of one in Native American Studies (many of these over lap at my University). So, you don't sound boring at all to me.

i am also an animal lover (cats in perticular or ferrets ). Below you will see a picture i posted for you of my baby (Butterscotch). W/we also have two all black cats (my Mistress's and my daughter's), plus a foster dog.

i was granted the pleasure of taking pictures of a client's cats this past week. It was a lot of fun.

Our classes for the semester started today, however, i was one of the lucky few that don't start until tomorrow because i don't have classes on Monday until next week (late starting class).

i am glad you unlurked and hope you find everything you want to know here. If not ask and i am sure these friendly Dom/mes and the subs will be glad to help you.

Sincerely,

Sweetsboi

[Sweetsboi]

Please forgive me for the large picture. I didn't realize it was this large in format. If it is to large please feel free to take it down/or adjust the size.

Humbly,

Sweetsboi

[Phantome]

Thanks for the warm welcome! Butterscotch is a very cute kitty. I feel much better today, having gotten the first day out of the way. I don't know how I'm going to survive this year, my schedule is so full. Oh well- I guess we'll just have to really squeeze in some "playtime" so I don't become a dull girl from working all the time.

[Ranai]

any particular threads, chats or other suggestions for us rookies?

Breathless, there is no hierarchy. Please contribute to any threads where the subject matter interests you. Newer, older, longer and shorter, controversial and unanimous ones. If you have a new theme or wish to approach a theme from a new angle, create a new thread. The first threads I wrote something in after I joined were Your Avatar...why? and Early fantasies and then I simply continued with any threads I found that touched my interest.

Also, story reviews: as a member you have the privilege to publicly (or privately) applaud the authors who give you a good time, and offer constructive criticism. Log in, click on 'BDSM Library' at the bottom right of the forums page, select a story you enjoyed and click 'review it'. If you are curious what else other readers who like what you like have reviewed, click on their name on the review page. Then click 'see user's review list'. Another neat feature are the BDSMshelf lists where people collect their favourite stories. You find them in the right column on the story and review pages. Similarly, if someone's contributions to the forums interest you, you can click on their name and on the profile page select 'Find all posts by X' or 'Find all threads started by X'.

Basically, in the library click on the red underlined stuff and you will be taken to interesting places. In the forums, click on the blue underlined stuff and write in any threads you wish. Say what you think and enjoy yourself, that's what this place is for.

P.S. Welcome to Phantome and Sweetsboi!

[Breathless]

Thank you so much for the detailed and wonderfully informative response Ranai! I'll start browsing right away! I'm fairly talkative, as you will soon discover, but it's nice to be welcomed and encouraged!

This site is fantastic, and everyone seems very open and friendly! I'm so glad I found my way here!

Master gave me a name change ( I used to be ileana ) so the name is new but not the person. See you all around.

[tabuk]

Hi there,

I'm new to bdsm and this board. Still working out what part of bdsm interests me, I do know though that I am sub. Hubby worked that one out very quickly

I'm a 37 year old who has been very heavily into the Gorean life style, that was until I became pregnant with my beautiful daughter and asked a few questions. Kinda got dissed out of the scene at that point. I was collared online by several "Masters" [or should i say those who assumed they were Masters] until meeting my hubby online. I then becamed collared to him in real life until i had to remove it during the birth of my formentioned girl. It never went back on. Motherhood changed me but now I have started to feel interested in bdsm. I still have too many unanswered questions about Gor to go back to it.

The bdsm library [for me] is one way of exploring this wonderful realm and thank you for putting it here.

Ok now that I have bored the pants off you all will say take care and have fun Oh and pain for those of you who like it.

Taby
