Gor & largely the Gorean Lifestyle.

[Timberwolf]

Hi Timberwolf, thanks for joining in.

You make some good points that I agree with. Goreans nor anyone involved in the BDSM lifestyle should react back with hatred just because they may have encountered it from someone before. But as humans we do. I admit to having been angered many times by Dom's telling me I was not a real Dom just because I happened to embrace some of the gorean philosophy in my BDSM lifestyle.

I can understand your frustration. As a switch, I've often felt like I'm not ever *completely* accepted (or perhaps, a better word would be "understood") by a lot of people I meet who are either just a Top or bottom. Everything from "you're just confused" to "it's impossible for that to work" to one Domme telling me the fact I had a Dom side was a sign I needed "re-training" (I found her quaintly amusing, if nothing else).
