Over the past few days, i have found myself among friends; making alliances and otherwise creating bonds that will take eons to undo. Yes, like so many others, i too have come across those "would be" Doms. Y/you know the ones. The ones that sneer hautily at Y/you when Y/you speak openly and candidly to another Dom / Master. i have many Dom/ Master/ Mistress / Dommes (All of Whom are Gentlemen and Ladies) who are my closest friends and dearest companions. However, it seems that these days, the term "submissive" is easily mistaken for that word "slave."
i am fully aware that i have not been in the lifestyle long enough to make some political statement about differences and comparrisons. Simply, i'll put what i know and leave it at that. First off, i am a submissive. This means that i willingly give my heart and soul to Another because They make my heart feel safe, warm, secure and above all, loved. i trust them with my safety and desire them to have a power over me because of their loving habits.
On the other hand, slavery means that a person unwillingly gives themselves to someone to bend at Their will. How one-sided is that? In life, W/we A/all give and take equally. Despite how the melody is played, a composer first needs an inspiration to make the notes. This does not mean i am a S/switch. i fully respect T/those who carry T/themselves in both aspects and i hope to learn more from them - but i like to make it clear that just because i am a submissive and i put myself in lower-case letters does NOT mean i am someone's doormat. This also does not mean that i am forbidden from speaking to Those who collar in such a way as to have my mind spoken.
