Favorite Sayings? "If you can't beat 'em, tie 'em up first!" "Not like that, harder! Here, let me show you..." "F*ck me running sideways with a wooden spoon!" "Illegitematus non carborundum! - Latin - Don't let the bastards wear you down!" More to come!

Beat me to a pulp, pierce me, bruise me, please! As far as BDSM activities, there is little I don't enjoy. There are three hard limits I have: Dead things, children, and animals. Past that, I'll talk about it. Some of the limits I have (No tickling my soles, no punching my face, and I'll never shit or be shit on by anyone) are the result of me being a model, no face bruising, or a panic reaction when my feet are tickled. And I'm sorry all you copropheliacs out there, but it's just - poop disgusts me. Honestly, what I'll do in a scene and how intense I'll allow it to get in my OWN head directly corresponds with how intimate I am with the person I'm playing with. There are also two kinds of scene for me: The fun, lighthearted, "hey, we're both kinky and wanna have fun" play, and the "beat me until I break because my brain needs a rest" play. The former I will do in clubs, at home, wherever the mood suits if I have a good play parnter and I'm feeling it. The latter, the 'catharsis' style play, I only do in the comfort of my home or the home of my s.o's. (If you get to know me well enough, you'll know what that means.) I am heavily into pain. From a Dominant point of view, I have no time for subs that like to dictate the direction and particulars of a scene, and/or subs who can't handle what they sign up for. I am mostly a compassionate, 'pleasure' top, but if I'm in a mood, I need submissives that can take immense forms of bodily pain. I like trampling, kicking, punching. I'm a small woman, but I wrestle, and I'm very strong. From a submissive point of view, I've always had problems with this. I like to fight back, but I'm stronger than some of the Doms I like to play with :D To me as a sub, pain does not mean punishment. I like pain! Punishment, too, is not discipline. I'll go into that more later. I was trained at my very entry into the lifestyle, when I was living in the South, to directly associate pain and pleasure. Pulling my hair, slapping my face, canestrokes across my ass, kicking me, all of this is a turn-on. I get off on trying to say no, pretending to fight it. I don't get off giving myself to someone because I like the control, to me my submission is an issue of trust, which should be earned and sometimes even fought for. I submit to people I can trust to hurt me the way I need. Who I can trust to read my reactions and know when I need more pain, or some hugs. Who have experience, and who know me and why I need what I need. I can easily go very deep into an emotional release in an intense scene, but if my top, or anyone watching, isn't prepared for the outburst, it can be frightening. And likewise, one of the reasons I literally GRILL a sub before playing is because I want to know exactly what is going to happen in their head if we get intense. I absolutely HATE misinterpreting reactions, so I expect my submissives to be incredibly explicit when telling me what they feel. I would do the same thing. Safewords.. are important. If you're playing with someone who can read you like a book, someone you've been playing with for like five years, safewords can be overlooked. For light, prediscussed scenes this can also be true. However, this does NOT negate the importance of a safeword. Even if you have no safeword for scening, if you are in any kind of D/s relationship, you need a safeword. An 'equals now' word. This prevents miscommunication (the ultimate relationship adversary) from arising when someone is in top mode and the sub is in equals mode, or someone is in sub mode, and the top needs an equal point of view on a subject. Safewords only allow the roleplay to be broken. Saying a safeword is half the trouble. The other half arises in having a DAMN GOOD REASON. I will never call safeword unless I literally cannot physically take any more of what I'm being served. Or if injury is imminent. I always have the power, even in the deepest subspace, to say my safeword. Subs owe it to themselves to have that ability. They owe it to their tops next, for imagine the top who realises S/He's pushed beyond a sub's safe space and they called no safeword. What emotional pain that is! I might play rough, but underlying it all is the love and trust I have for all of the people I play with, top and bottom. I trust my subs to tell me what they feel, and I do the same for my tops. I expect my tops to honor my trust and do only that which I can handle, mentally, physically, AND emotionally. Subs AND tops should always feel comfortable in those three areas. If you're feeling out of whack mentally, emotionally, physically, or worse, all three, then you need to take a SERIOUS step back from your relationship and redefine it. It may not be what you think it is.

A response to a link sent that I want to remember. This just made me think. It's not supposed to position me on my beliefs, I just got inspired to rant. /begins by comparing Christianity and Islam. So you have two patriarchal religions, both monotheistic, both with the word of mouth system for the holy writ, etc, etc. They are actually really similar. What I feel is, what I see, what I've learned from reading and asking and listening, Muslims do NOT think like we do. We, having CHRISTIAN foundations to our very way of life, to our NATION founded by (Yo,) Puritans and Calvinists, can hardly comprehend the way these people reguard us. Taught from birth that females are inferior, to the point of true objectification, and that if someone thinks differently that you they should be feared. Yes, they see us as terrorists, as America sees them, but when it crosses into religion, into that hazy state/church line, that's where the difference is. These people hate us so much, even to the very base of their religion, 'either you convert, and are pure, or you're an infidel, and you die'. Christians practice good will. We turn out the terrorists among us because we're after the common good. The way Muslims see us, well, we don't deserve shit. They'd rather sit in a puddle of their own terrorists than hand them over to the very infidels they are trying to protect their own religion from. Both sides are radical. There's so much swinging on the pendulum that the midpoint gets lost in the extremity of the swing. This shouldn't even be a problem. Both religions, (AND MIND YOU - this whole thing is my opinion! I cite no resources and take all blame!) who claim to be right, in doing so, are wrong. Any religion, a.k.a. organized (and most often lucrative) mass of spiritualism that preaches "be like us or (go to hell, die, be left behind, not be an alien)", is wrong. ALL of that comes from the same thing as someone looking over the backyard fence at his neighbor and thinking... "That guy.. he's not like me. he shouldn't be like that and I've got to fix it." Islam, the word, means "submission". That to me, draws the picture quite clearly. Quoting Jesus, and Mohammad, Jesus said "Choose". Mohammad said "Submit". Jesus was a carpenter, Muhammad was a pirate, a raider, a rapist, and married a 6 year old. Didn't consummate till she was nine, but hey. Still waited. I'm not saying he wasn't a good husband, but he doesn't sound good. It's in the Koran, and the Bible. But, in my honest opinion, I think both texts have been gone over enough times to make a mess in any language you translate it into. And then you cross the multi-century boundary of confusion into the how-many-languages-has-this-cycled-through? area. It gets all gray. I say - Leave debate to the experts after the initial ker-splosion and give me some ice cream.
