ORIGINAL: Bella1965 No offense folks, but I would put the onus of responsibility on the individuals that answer to this public stunt. Aren't they adult enough to be responsible for their own actions? To contemplate the ramifications to their own health if they place themselves in what could be potentially dangerous? Since this domina doesn't own any of these men, how does she assume responsibility for what occurs to them? You've gotten to the meat of the point that people have been alluding to but not entirely addressed! The OP is making money from selling the T-shirts and thus does have a vested interest in promoting their wear, whether responsibly or not. She doesn't "own" the the men who are purchasing her T-shirts and has no way of knowing if those who purchase them are adult enough to use them responsibly or not. Yet, in this thread, she appears to be encouraging men to purchase them and wear them in situations that might put them at risk. So the question appears to become something along the lines of... while taking their money for the T-shirts, is she selling them as a product to wear, or is she selling the concept of being dominated by a professional who also encourages submissive clients to wear the supplied T-shirts in situations that other dominants on this forum would not deem appropriate or safe for their submissives to be in?? As the OP is in a position of being in the public eye and what some would possibly refer to as having influence in the community, the question then revolves around what kind of responsibility does she have for her actions, particularly if she were to assume to some degree the role of individually acting as the Domina of each man she sold a T-shirt to. Is she just selling a garment, or is she selling a combined service and product instead? It might help in making an informed decision to know that the sale of the T-shirt is intended to support the web site she uses to promote herself and her female supremacist views on this lifestyle. I'm not trying to answer the above questions for anyone, only to focus what seems to me to be the issues at hand regarding the OP's responsibility to the submissives who would purchase and wear her T-shirts in the places she suggests. - pixel
