I think that the conversation is finally getting around to the truth of the matter: It's not the sub's age or even their experience level that causes someone to choose a partner. No, it's how well you can connect with them on an emotional level that seems to be the overriding factor. Frankly, expereince tends to be something that I've found to be more of an intimidator, than an "edge." Dominants find out I've done a LOT of stuff in the 20+ years of being in the scene, and suddenly they are backing off, feeling "performance anxiety" about playing with me. It's sad, but there have been times I've witheld extensive information about my history, just so I could get others to play with me. This anxiety on their part is so silly. (Just because you have had meals at four star resterurants, doesn't mean you've given up on home cooking.) It's more about how much I'm attracted to them, rather than how well I think they could swing their floggers, or tie a knot. As far as the age factor goes: I think most people enjoy being with people who who shares their history... who will "get" their references in conversation. Youth really only offers a certain energy to the mix. Frankly, there are times I prefer slow and sensual to fast and frantic. There's a lot of "gray area" in this topic... but for the most part, I see people pairing off with others based on other criteria.
