Look, my armour isn't shiney. Battleworn. Rebuilding castle, get some wenches in it to clean my armour. Then to take over the Kingdom! It's because we were raised by women, programmed by women(mom). to be what they say a woman wants( a knight; yes man; provider; implide dom, butto the world, not to her), not wut they really want ( A dominant to the world and her, show her who's in control to make her feel safe), PC thing. With broken families on the rise, these 50's values have changed slightly.more equality more balance. with the genders, FU the economy(doubling the workforce)

My knight in shinning armour was on the opposite coast. I was NYker , he was Californian and he wasnt anything like the fairy tale. He is red haired, laid back, veggie loving, free spirited ,easy going and flexable. I am typical ny attitude with german jew tossed in for temperment and a farmers daughter. We met, fell in love and he moved here by choice. His horse was a white T-bird. He is not tall dark but he is wonderful in my eyes. He is not my rescuer at all. He does not protect me nor do I want or need protecting. we are two adults that make it work.

I do not desire the same things as you do. I have no desire to have that archetype as a dominant, and that is what the White Knight is, and as such he appeals to a wide variety of people... either they want to be with him, or they want to be him. He is the "Hero" after all. I do want my partner to be heroic, but I want to be a hero too. I also want to be the princess, the wise old woman, and the mage too... But as my profile says, I contain multitudes, and those who inhabit my life do too.... I suppose my Daddy as some of the antihero in him, he is also very much the Father archetype for me. Fathers take care of their charges, but they do not need to protect them from every dark wizard or dragon... they teach how to protect yourself and how to stand on your own two feet... a good father does not stunt for his own ends and ego. I suppose that is why I strongly identify my Daddy with that archetype over the others... although, like me, he contains multitudes too.

When I got involved with the sorts of women who seem to crave this-there was nothing left over for me. I'd rather have a slave,than be one.

'if it isn't the "Selfless" part of the "knight" that many of the women who seek knights yearn for; that willingness to always put the damsel's needs and wants and desires before his own? ' CreativeDominant said the above. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ BINGO! [:D] *If they're at my feet with that beautiful: I'll do anything* for You look in their eyes, they're My Knight. I know a lot of people scoff at The Knight in Shining Armour concept however, I have experienced it in D/s. It is a very deep romantic and exciting experience. Knights, and Ladies in Waiting: Beautiful indeed! In Deed. Irish**

i'm going to be the rebel in this and say - nope never dreamed "that someday my prince will come" or "the knight in shining armor with long flowing hair riding on his noble steed" to rescue me. i'm a different kind of princess who's independent and strong enough to defend her own castle.

velvetears -> RE: The knight in Shining Aromor (11/23/2007 8:09:29 AM)
When you idolize someone to that extent you're bound to become disappointed at some point. The higher that shining knight sits on his horse the harder he's going to fall. i think any woman who intends for her dom to be her rescuer isn't looking for a dominant but rather a caretaker - and what dom wants a woman who is so needy he has to be her caretaker, in other words, whats in it for him? If i were a dom i wouldn't want the complications - sounds like too much work to get what "i want" - too high a price to pay when you can get someone already with their act together to bring what they have to offer to the table as well.

eroticangel -> RE: The knight in Shining Aromor (11/23/2007 8:21:46 AM)
Well, i for one am still waiting for my "Knight" or my "Prince Charming" but alas, i am afraid he is lost, and being a Man he WON'T stop and ask for directions...... sheesh i really wish i could spell!

akisha -> RE: The knight in Shining Aromor (11/23/2007 8:26:32 AM)
I have no need or desire to be saved. I want a man strong enough to support me when I'm feeling weak, soft enough to ask for help when he needs to, Compasionate enough to comfort me when I'm sad and lost, intelligent enough to admit when he feels the same, courageous enough to stand against anything to protect me, but not to arrogant to admit when he needs my help. I want a someone that does not fear to see me as an equal yet loves the fact i choose to curl at his feet.

SunNMoon -> RE: The knight in Shining Aromor (11/23/2007 8:30:24 AM)
No not really. I dream more of a guy that can swept me off my feet with a kiss, who has my back in life. Who wants to build and share a life with me. But I don’t want him to be more dominant then me, nor do I want him to make me feel helpless. And I don’t really need someone to save me.

Nodding, this was my experience as well. Women who expect this sort of man seem to be very vampiric. And very demanding as well-not my idea of how a happy D/s thing should function.
