To be real....
Time after time after time I keep seeing people posting about "fakes" or why they can never find "real" people. I've read journals and watched someone progress from wishful eagerness to meet and grow in BDSM to being jaded and distrusting of everyone! I wonder about this sometimes... is it a matter that we seek out someone to share what some of us fear is "abnormal" or "strange" and the lack of finding someone to trust with our secrets and our faith is so jading that we would rather turn someone down to avoid the chance of being hurt again? Perhaps it's our hope to dive into the new strange world or have that deep relationship that forms between a dom and a submissive and the disappointment of realizing the person you've been chatting with has no real interest in being that meaningful other half to our relationship?
I've been called a fake before, I personally took it as quite offensive. I believe myself truly submissive but not blindly obedient. I will tease and resist at times but when the Dom cracks the whip so to speak, I get in line. The person that called me a fake did so after I refused to send him naked photos of myself as commanded in his first e-mail to me (this was before I was owned). I thought it reasonable that I did not have to do everything this stranger told me to do because I had not yet chosen to submit to him! I firmly believe that submission is something you must give, it can not be demanded or taken. I choose to serve you.
In the end I suppose there is no simple answer to why some people react so harshly to 'fakes' and 'pretenders' but I suspect it is a matter of betrayal that one person feels. We are all looking for acceptance and that deep relationship with deep trust and love so when the hope of such a relationship is lost, we feel hurt....
...and so the rantings of a silly little girlie boy come to an end
