Hi,

I'm on a roll here. I have posted in two other areas, so now I will introduce myself. I am an older member, "mature" I think is the politically correct term, "old fart" is what others may prefer to use.

I am here now because I see the world differently from what I did when I was young. The years have not narrowed my view but instead broadened my horizons. What I once thought and was told was "perverted" and "abnormal" I now realize is just a different perspective, a different flavor. I have always been aroused by fantasies where I was dominated, spanked, and bound, but I was afraid to reveal them.

Woodsman, my partner, friend, lover, and husband of more than 30 years and I had experimented some in this area but had been afraid to really talk about it. Neither was willing to admit that this turned him/her on. He was afraid he was sick because he liked to inflict pain. I was afraid I was because I liked to receive it.

Over a year ago I discovered porn on the net, and eventually this site. (Yes, I was naive. I'm a repressed baby boomer.) When I saw that there were many other people with these fantasies, I finally found peace with myself and opened up to my partner. I was relieved and overjoyed to find that he was excited about this relationship and eager to begin. (I think my writing a few stories for him telling him my fantasies helped).

I am here now, and he will soon introduce himself. We thank you for making this site available, and I'll be around. I will write too much at times, and for that I apologize ahead of time. I am shy in public and speak little, but I like to write and will go on and on.
