Personally I find the dearth of male submissives rather sad. I know that we are out there, but we struggle to come out and do more than grunt a "hello". I am heartened to see some in this thread. I am not alone! LOL.
I don't think that I am a freak, but I do think that some people see a male sub and think "only wants to get his rocks off and no commitment". I guess that those people do exist. I am perhaps a little odd because I am in an LDR, no sex with my Dominant, just the ubiquitous mind fuck. Being submissive answers a need for me, it is part of my lifestyle, but isn't my entire life (unfortunately). I don't see too many others like me and that may, in part, keep me more of a lurker than a participant.
