it is indeed a shame that this type of attitude still exists, and I am not going to defend or deny it for I know and appreciate that it does, and it is totally indefensible.
I am glad to consider myself one of the 5%, although I feel the figures may be a little less than accurate, I am sure it varies from industry to industry and then company to company.
My work life it totally separated from my home and private lives, I am able to compartmentlise my life.
I could never imagine being in a situation whereby a female colleague or boss ( my company has a good mix of male and female senior personnel) was to state in pubic that she was a submissive, however if she did, or as is more likely confide this to me it would in no way alter our professional working relationship.
Nor would it I hasten to add if the statement was that she was a domme!
I would certainly never look at anyone and make a snap decision or judgment, based on any appearances, whether these be sex, age, colour, height or what ever.
I think we are getting back to what we first discussed in that it is not sensible, if not dangerous even, to make decisions based upon an individuals looks.
Get to know people, maybe, just maybe this is why doms do not feel the need or wish to post pictures of themselves on their profile pages !
We are looking to connect and develop relationships on a deeper and more established level.
if any sub out there wishes to see a picture of a dom I am sure that he would be only to happy to acquiesce to correctly worded and respectful requests.
Once a suitable rapport and understanding has been established of course.
