Do we need to be perfect? Should we be able to accept criticism and admit that we make mistakes?

Frankly, I see being unable to admit you’re ever wrong, and the inability to accept criticism or be questioned, as character defects that a Dom in particular could do without.


No one is perfect......we all make mistakes. No one is always right.......ever. It is wrong to portray yourself as such, expect such......or even believe in the possibility of such a person. Much as i would like to think that i am perfect i know full well that i am not..

I believe in good Dom's/Domme's who will strive for perfection, to be the best that they can possibly be. The same holds true for submissives.

I believe that you should question anyone who thinks themselves above and or beyond questions. ........Mainly because i think anyone who is not willing to answer questions has something to hide.....

Strength, power and control lies in the ability to admit your mistakes and learn form them. To ask forgiveness and have the ability ..........to forgive mistakes. To except criticisms and try to do better and learn form what is being said.

The ability of a Dom to say " I'm sorry, I was wrong" or "I made a mistake, please forgive me".........is a powerful thing.

Submitting to someone who does not posses these qualities, these abilities ......in my opinion is a terrible mistake.
