Absolutely agree with the author. Lee Thompson must be one very, very dedicated chap, because the town in which he was openly displaying his Gorian lifestyle is a pretty backwards place where even a strange hair-cut will draw stares and comments. I know, it's only 45mins down the road from me

Plus, isn't part of the BDSM appeal that you're indulging in an alternative lifestyle and wouldn't you "normalize" by living in a group? Wouldn't you then want something different and more individual? Of course I'm conjecturing based on my own viewpoints and may be taken to task, but I'm fairly sure individualism is part of the appeal, I mean who wants to be "normal" ?
