Hard to remember, but I know it started with finding a comic book of my brother's where the villians were tying up the heroines in an extremely appealing manner. Also a really old copy of Forum letters

What was its appeal to you?

Being in control, having someone utterly at your beck and call

What misconceptions did you have of BDSM before you began that have been changed now?

I thought I was weird and that no-one else thought about these things, I also thought that all men could be doms.

What do you hope to learn/teach/pass on to others about BDSM?

That it can be loads of fun, and can be taught. Also that it's a lot more common than most people think!

Do you consider yourself a "lifestyler" or just an occasional player?

Due to not being in the same country, let alone the same continent, for longer than 6 months at a time, it's hard to start fresh each time, so at the moment certainly occasional player.

What do you enjoy about being dominant/submissive?

As I said before, being in utter control is fantastic, as for being sub, there's only been one man who has managed to get me to be sub and with him, it was perfect, hard to explain.

What do you like about your dominant/submissive(s), if you have one (them)?

None at the moment unfortunately...
So thats ladyB's story...
