Went to a play party last night...

I fully understand that. It really works well for Tops and Bottoms... but not so well for Dominants and Submissives... (imo)

I don't follow... sure, me and the guy flogging me were just a bottom and a top for that bit of play, but there are also people in serious D/s relationships who go to these things to play as well, because they don't have the equipment at home, or just because they like an audience. And surely someone can engage in "casual" topping or bottoming but also want D/s in their life? (I'm pretty sure that describes me, anyway.)

I second the request for clarrifcation. I was curious about what you meant by this, Oz, but didn't want to derail. But since it's gloombunny's thread. . .

Also, congrats to gloombunny and subltenewbie on the fun experiences. I've never been to a play party, I'm not much of an exhibitionist and neither is my master, but I've always been a little curious about them because of the opportunity to see how other people play. To sort of see first hand this what this intimate moment is like for other people.

True. I guess I just haven't met those types scening where I've ventured.
