ORIGINAL: Owner4SexSlave First and foremost, it's human nature to have something to believe in. Everybody has beliefs, codes, so called articles of faith they live by. Some people have only a few basic ones others have many. However, one wayism line of thinking will always be greeted with conflict. What is right for one person is not right for another. The trick is to maintain a balance of common interests and beliefs in any group or society. It's ok for people to believe in female or male superiority or to not believe in those things. The reality is this, it's not for everybody. these concepts can never fully become reality for everybody to peacefully coexist in this world. In regards to this statement you made ... "Dominant Women are well balanced individuals". This is not a true logical statement. There are some not so well balanced ones out there as well. Everybody male and female has issues, problems and demons of some form. There are many well balance Dominant Men as well. Perhaps, some people that come to this site would not know it from all the pervy rude emails from "Dom Men" on the other side. A lot of people are drawn to this site with misconceptions or whatever else. D/s is not a BDSM exclusive concept, nor is the concept of Superiority. Yes, faith can be the belief in the absense of proof. This history has shown time and time again many people being screwed over because somebody took advantage of proof. Hell look at what happened with "Heaven's Gate" cult, all those people took their life thinking they were gonna hitch a ride on that comment. Faith can also, be the belief in knowing something that has been proven to you time and time again. It's a bit like trust. Like I have faith that certain people that borrow money from me will pay me back. I have faith that certain people will catch my fall at times, faith in knowing certain people are out there in the streets dealing in crack as well. I have faith in all the good and bad things people are capable of doing. I have faith in the fact that not all men nor all women are well balanced creatures. I have faith in the human persona and all it can do. (good, bad, or indifferent). you make some very good points for which i thank you. please allow me to answer some of them, hopefully in clarification in exchange for the viewpoints you have so kindly shared. - These Articles of Faith, apply to me alone. i would never profess to forcing my views upon anyone else. This would just be a violation of both basic ethics and ethos.
- i will have to take your word on the balanced nature of people in general, i may not be the best judge of character as i tend to take people at face value. This has just been my experience and it has held true to date that i have not met an unbalanced Female Dominant Woman. Does not mean that they don't exist and i stand corrected.
- Logical statements are never in concurrence with statements of faith. In the face of proof and logic faith evaporates! as the two concepts are antithetical.
- One can NOT profess "faith" in that which is proven. i don't wish to argue semantics or language syntax. This is my understanding of the nature of faith, that is all.
Thank you again for adding balance to my more than somewhat unbalanced original post. i am hoping that what is becoming clearer is that these are my personal beliefs and are not meant to be taken as the rantings of a street corner doomsday prophet, or a sales pitch to convince anyone else. At best they are an attempt to elucidate who i am and at worst they are a rage against those who claim to know what is best for all other and decry any risky practice as unsafe, insane and impracticable.
