ORIGINAL: ProtagonistLily Is it me, or do the topics seem to be lacking in any real basis of fact lately? Does anyone actually have any experience in the scene anymore? Aside from the obvious ones, which I count about 20 at best, do any of the rest of you actually get away from the computer and actually practice your kinks with someone else? I'm all for exploration and discussion, but it's starting to sound like the inmates have taken over the assylum lately. For example, the latest "Fat Chick" thread BBW subs.... Hasn't this thread been done to death already? Why aren't we getting topics like "How do I set up a safe call?" or "I just got this new awsome flogger, how do I keep it clean?" or "What should I expect from my first Munch?" Instead, we are dealing with pussy size, random rants (which I suppose this qualifies as) and equally base discussions. I just find it disheartening to see so many people be so damned flip about the 'lifestyle' (which I tend to really hate as a term overall) and treat it like it's just a place to get laid. If that's all it was, most of us wouldn't put the time and effort into it and just go the vanilla route. I figured I'd restate the Op's orignal post, as we seem to still be traveling from it again... I think there are quite a few silly threads, rants started. I passed this one by for, I think, 2 days now wondering if I wanted to participate. Obviously I decided I did, if only to get back to your orignal post. As others have stated the boards are free to whomever chooses to write about....almost anything. Cool... I can respect that. But instead of letting it bother you/me to the point of feeling the need to post about that which irritates you/me...another rant thread.... (no insult here, I can understand your frustration) I just open them up that have interesting titles....read some or all of it, and then possibly say.."ah, another one of these." close it and move on. And look for something that interests me, or I feel I have something to add that might be useful. As you have all unfortunately seen, I have been sucked into useless flame throwing out of sheer disgust and frustration. Everyone has idiocy limits. However, I just chosen to simply not let it bother me anymore. So, those threads that pull at my sarcasm button.... I try to just pass on now. If I don't have anything I can add....positive or negative....hey, either way it can still be adding to the topic, and isn't flaming. ( I have a tight definition of flaming) For some, this lifestyle...whatever you wanna call it... IS a place to get laid. It's all sexual for them. Cool...great... that's fine with me. It doesn't diminish me to know that for others.... sex is what's it's all about. I have a few friends who couldn't live the way I do. But they loovvveeee the play, because it is all sexual for them. And you make a great point, if it was like that for us all....well.... it would be vanilla. ..smiles.. and not so kinky, I guess. Personally, this is what I love about all this. I don't share the same tendencies, or kinks with all my friends. But they are not less to me because of that. It's just what the need, or get their kicks from. I don't judge anyone else on what they need, or want to be happy (unles it's something that SHOULD be obvious to us all....like abuse to kids...murder....other extremes like that) Just as I EXPECT not to be judged by the things I like or need to do to be happy. That was initially one of the biggest aspects that I lvoed about this lifestyle. That all the nosy, nick picking... get-in-your-business-thinking-you-should-do-what-they-do cause it's the only right way people weren't here. Because we all had our own kinks, yours isn't better than mine...mine isn't better than yours. Thay are just different. Period. Sorry I strayed.... I'm starting to rant myself.... so I'll leave it here... and hope to offer more when someone has commented, and/or responded...good or bad...whatever. Good morning (btw) Tempest's pet jennifer
