Thank you. Although, for the record, when I first started I did switch for a while just to find out how it felt to be on the recieving end. Call me old-fashioned but I just don't believe in ordering anyone to do what I would not do myself — at least in principle, biology permitting.

Except, I realise now that, while it was possible for me to get some idea of how much things hurt, for example, I can never truly feel things the way a submissive feels them. It's just how our brains are wired, I guess.

But it really pisses me off (when I'm not too busy laughing) to hear people talking about submissives as though they were weak-willed, weak-minded doormats not worth spitting on, much lest respecting.

It's just not true! They just have a different kind of strength and a different kind of will. After all, which takes more strength of character? To stick with what one has always been taught is 'natural' or to accept the need to change and follow the new ways of one's Owner?

I know what I think.

And d'you know what's really odd Neither alpha nor I are Christian but we both have a favourite Book of the Bible — the Book of Ruth.: the story of a woman who gave up all that was dear and natural to her to follow her Master. Odd that the vanilla world sees her a a role-mode to be respected and yet looks down upon slaves who do no less every day of their lives.

Just a thought.
