English is a wonderful language in many ways - it's very inexactness allows for "error" (innovation) in concept that a more rigorous language would forbid. But oh, oh, oh how difficult English can be at times when we engage in analysis. Several of us have used "love" in this discussion in a comprehensive sense, covering more than one kind of love with the word - others have used the word in this discussion in a specific, eros sense. Padhraid, what you describe with "Z" sounds nothing like eros, but very much like agape, friendship love, mixed with maybe some physical admiration/desire. By no means are my other loves mixed with PE - storge love, charity love by its very nature, agape love - agape love is like "soveriegn princes meeting on neutral ground, respectful and courteous" - there can be no tlak of PE or D/s between such coevals.

quote: ORIGINAL: Fawne What I am understanding is these Dominant men here writing along the lines you brought up, are NOT PSYCHOPATHS. (disclaimer. I don't know any of them personally, so can't vouch for that) One can be a sadist and not a psychopath. If the drive to inflict pain is balanced, tempered by caring (did not say empathy.. whole 'nother can of worms)) protective, even loving behavior in a healthy person... that is the difference. Fawne, thanks for saying this... I do know that and if I ever made a reference that men on here are psychopaths, I apologize. I never thought that at all actually, not yet anyway. Any man I talked with on here has been ok, in my opinion. I was just upset recently and fell off the wagon the other day too.... so, sorry guys, if anyone thought I referred to that in any way. That never entered my mind actually. Thanks again for pointing this out to me, Fawne.

Faramir, sorry again for me being a jerk towards you..... *sigh I dont know, I guess you just push a button for me for some reason. I think I have bugged you enough, and from now on, I'm just going to never make any comments about you again. Silence is golden, at this time probably.
