ORIGINAL: punnishme why should we have to pay, i dont know why all of these women need to make money off of the lifestyle (here i go i probably got myself into something i shouldn't have by saying that but oh well) You shouldn't have to pay if you are looking for a give and take bdsm relationship. If however you go to a FemDomme and expects her to have all the toys, all the equipment, the facilities, the expensive fetwear, the shoes, etc... and you bring NOTHING - then I see that as you are taking without giving (you are using her!). You may want to bring a few toys of your own for her to use just so she knows you are not taking advantage of her (gifts are also a wonderful way of saying how much you appreciate all her efforts and the use of her equipment). Most FemDommes over time who are not in committed relationship will eventually feel "used" because they are expected to supply everything. This is a sore spot for many FemDommes. If you invited a woman out to dinner and a night of intimacy afterwards, wouldn't you expect to at least offer to buy her dinner? FemDommes don't even get that kind of polite generosity on average. Is it no wonder some may actually want something to help offset their costs? There will always be people who take advantage of other people - but that is not the majority. Join a local bdsm group and you will see many people to the contrary - they do this because they love what they do, not for money. Pro-dommes have their place in the world for they do provide a service without strings and with a level of discretion essential for many who want to explore submission (this is especially true for married men who love their wives but need this - so a pro-domme will give them what they need without a "relationship" that will compromise their home life). Pro-Dommes and Lifestyle Dommes are often mixed together, but they are two very different things. On a side note - A pro-domme usually doesn't make as much as one would guess (especially after operating costs, legal fees, advertising costs, and pre-screening lost time) and most of the money they do make is used to buy the expensive equipment, toys, clothes, etc. that the average FemDomme wouldn't be able to afford otherwise. Of the 200 pro-dommes I personally know - only 24 actually make a living doing this, the other 176 like expensive toys and fetwear and this is the only way they can afford them. Just a tidbit of information I thought you might find interesting. Lady Kay
