Good question, Ebony. I'm wondering if, because our little niche in life is built on having tolerance for another's kink, this doesn't extend also to interracial relationships. I have found people in the community to be more open minded toward others according to all kinds of physical aspects as compared to the straight, nilla world I came from. It's not that anyone lowered/altered standards but merely changed outlook. People on the inside are far more interesting than what they are on the outside. The dynamics of a D/s relationship, or even just casual SM play, seem to make any relationship much more intense and therefore the two people need to know so much more about each other before entering into one. Personally, I tried to bring my children up to be aware yet tolerant. I think it succeeded because both are colour blind. I'm hoping that will evolve as well. I see colour, race, ethnicity, whatever you call it...and I appreciate and celebrate the differences. I ask questions, which to some is insulting and to others okay; all depending on who I ask and how the question is phrased, I guess. I have been approached by several black Doms. Two in particular really made me stop and think. They stated they wanted a white woman as their slave specifically because of the reverse symbolism they saw. After talking awhile and having it explained, I have to admit the idea turned me on as well. I do find the contrast in colour erotic, especially when naked and entwined. Mind you, I don't think that as a sole reason to get together is such a good idea. To fulfill a sexual fantasy? Maybe for some, as for these two Doms. But I would rather hope that most would enter a relationship based on what is inside.
