I think part of my frustration with the OP has to do with the same dynamic when I see smart men dating stupid women.  A good friend is finishing his doctorate.  Brilliant man, with leftie-hippie parents who wanted him to look for an equal partner.  (I would NEVER date this man--long story, but not if he were the last man on earth, but I really love and respect him.)  Anyway, I met his girlfriend.  She is over a decade younger than him, dropped out of college to take a job selling bras at Victoria's Secret and I could count 3 ribs on each side through her dress.  She seemed nice, but a little vacuous and in no way capable of keeping up a conversation with us.  Her thinness is more important to him than whether she can carry on a conversation, whether she has similar values, whether her eyes light up with joy (you could never see that happening through the coats of make-up).   She is a beautiful foolish girl.

I was incredibly disappointed in my friend.   And a little angry (even if I'd never let him know it and only said "she's lovely").  Because even though this is the one man I can say I would never date, his choice is indicative of a trend that makes my chances of finding a true partner who can respect me much less.  When I finished my PhD (at age 29--so not yet over the hill), a friend gave me an article from The Chronicle of Higher Education that mentioned that women who have PhDs have a 5% chance of getting married.  Why should that SO hurt your chances of finding a partner?  I used to lie and say “Oh, I have a Bachelors of Arts from so-and-so.”  It wasn’t really a lie—I do.  I just didn’t mention any of the other letters.  I won’t play dumb anymore, but I have to fight my socialization to assume men don’t want smart women.  Especially when new research shows men really don’t want a woman who is smarter than him.  What can I do?  A partial lobotomy?  Drugs?  Why did my parents let me read when I was a kid? 

Of the 102 profiles that begin with "doctor" only 5 are women (and 5 are Dommes--not a single submissive woman admits to being a doctor of anything).  Why would we?  It just scares men away, because they don't want an equal partner who happens to surrender.  They want someone to take out when they feel like it and put her back on the shelf when they are bored.

It saddens me greatly.  And it isn't my friend and it isn't the OP--it is the whole culture that is telling men it is OK to make these choices.  And penalizing women who want to accomplish something and also want to find a partner.

"I hope she’ll be a fool.  That’s the best thing a girl can be in this world, a beautiful little fool” wrote F. Scott Fitzgerald, nearly a century ago.  And despite everything we've been through, I believe I would be happier if I happened to be a beautiful little fool.  And I am angry at a culture that makes me believe that.

There appears to be so much vitrol directed toward married men looking for a submissive, that I have been forced to consider the notion that American woman are relatively unsophisticated in their appreciation for enjoying the role of a submissive mistress to a married man.  This is quite acceptable in other societies, both European and Asian.  Therefore, I am left to ponder the fact that while submissives proudly proclaim they are not bound by conventional sexual mores, they are still constrained by conventional patters of relationships.  Those seeking a 24/7 relationship or a LTR seem, at least to me, to be wanting a marriage although calling it by a different name.  Where are there truly open minded, sexual and sensual American woman who would proudly serve as their Dom's mistress ? 


I read most of this thread, and I have to say that I do not know where you get the idea that because women are kinky and like to give up control over our lives to our significant other that we have no designs on living a traditional sort of life that is similar in some ways to vanilla counterparts. Yes, I want to be married again one day. Yes, the longer I am with my Daddy, I sometimes think about it being him that I do marry.

There have been many others that have stated why they would not want to be with a married man. I do not understand your hostility and disrespect of those who want a different existence than you can offer. I do not understand why you need to put down women that do not want to be a party to wrecking your home, hurting your wife, altering the life of your wee ones. I can only express the deepest pity for not only your wife, but any woman that would be unfortunate enough to become your submissive. You have very little respect for women overall, and you basically show a lack of respect for yourself in the way you choose to live your life.

I have a very good friend that is cheating on her husband with her dominant lover. I feel badly for her situation. I have never heard her express the things that you have..she hates that her life is inauthentic. What you are stating is that if we are unwilling to live inauthentically with you, then we are unsophisticated rubes. Perhaps I am unsophisticated, I am from a small town. I was produced from a traditional sort of family. i was taught cheating was a bad thing.

I am also a scholar, I am also on the short list to get into one of the most prestigious universities on the West Coast to study anthropology in their graduate program. Why should a woman like me (unsophisticated or not) settle for less than my emotional, intellectual, and ethical equal?

I didn't settle for anything less than what I deserve... and I have it. And he isn't hiding me from his wife.

What is sophisticated about lying and sneaking?  What is refined about being alone on holidays?  What is stylish about not being allowed to call if you want to talk and sitting around waiting for his schedule to be free?  What is classy about being penciled in and not allowed to fully be a part of someone’s life?  What is urbane about waiting for the message ‘we need to cancel our plans, she suspects something’?
Are you sophisticated enough to grow some balls and be honest with all the women in your life? 
Grow-up, quit yer bitchin’ and do the honorable thing rather than blaming women who have enough self-esteem to kick your ass all the way back to your wife.

A reply to one and all.  I have been fascinated by the level of angst and vitriolic denunciations that have been sent my way.  Each and every one of you (well almost), have proven my point.  And so, we can soon dispense with this thread.  I shall remain on this site, occassionaly join in forum discussions and keep my eyes open for one who is unlike any of you who have chosen to answer.  I am of course totally fascinated by the fact that so many Dommes chose to respond with such bitterness.  I will have to reflect upon this and ponder as to the reason you felt so challenged by this posting.


Rather than strain yourself - why not just ask your wife...........

OP, it wasn't a "challenging" post and there was no angst in the replies. You're just one more dickweed who wants somewhere he can plonk his dick occasionally, behind his wifes back. These girls deserve better than that. If you think that having a bit on the side is a sophisticated way of life, good for you. But don't expect everyone to agree with you.

I think a brothel might be more useful to you.

I'm not a Domme, and I don't feel threatened.  I'm just a single, fake, unsophisticated, wannabe Dom.  But I had an experience recently the good doctor might be interested in.


I'm not in the least bit threatened by him as a Domme - but I resent that he and people like him are lumped in with me and my family by people who don't know much about poly, or are against poly.  People only seem to see the cheaters like him who claim to be poly and not the families like mine that are stable and loving.


Ummm yeah, he's a DOM, but please don't let his wife find out.....she's liable to rip his joy stick out by the roots.......
PW'd dom.  Not even master in his own house. 

Sounds like poo, looks like poo, no need to taste it........

I don’t see any angst here, I see strongly worded opinions that don’t happen to agree with yours.

I will however look forward to your every written word but only if you promise you will use ‘vitrol’ or ‘vitriol’ in every post.

Not being a domme I cant speak for them,but I saw no one challenged by your post. To the point I saw people expressing their opinions about what you wrote. The only one I see challenged here is you. If you dont want to see what people think of what you write then dont ask the question. As for the bitterness you seem to think you inspired in anyone. Well dy I doubt you inspire much of anything in anyone. Lurk all you want, perhaps you shall learn something.

He could probably make an argument that he inspired bitterness in my posting - however it has nothing to do with his or my orientation ... it has to do with what he is doing to the term "poly".  And if he does make the argument that he inspired my bitterness, I'd have to respond that he merely triggered an episode in an ongoing issue with me - I want my family to be accepted and it's not yet ... people like him are undermining the efforts of those of us who don't cheat, lie or deceive our partners.

To the OP, to make such a narrow minded blanket statement regarding women is absolutely bullshit. I really have to wonder why you are unable to accept the fact that not all women want to be second fiddle to a married man? Women are sophisticated irregardless if they live in Europe, Asia, America or Canada. A Domme who is living a poly relationship is just as valid as a woman who staunchly believes in total monogamy, that is their right and freedom to conduct their lives as they see fit. At least they are smart enough to know that the only constraints they have are the ones they themselves take on. What you see as a detrimental constraint om submissive women, these same women probably see as their freedom. Open your attitude and fully understand that not everyone is wired for open relationships, poly dynamics, or being a Dom's mistress. Admire the submissive women for wanting a monogamous relationship with a Dom just as you would admire a submissive women for wanting to be a  Dom's mistress.
btw: This is only my opinion. take it or leave it as it's no sweat off of my cajones.

HI Just
Vitriol means..... Bitterly abusive feeling or expression.
This Domme isnt bitter, isnt feeling abused either, I am  a mistress in the "literal" sense, plus a whole bunch of other non sophisticated labels. Oh Im also not american.
I have sent the 10$ bet I made to a womens shelter on behalf of all men that think sophistication means hes a stud...while making two women miserable at once.

Hmmmmm....fancy and articulate bullshit is still bullshit.  Don't blame me for my viewpoint, though.  It's just my angst!  I just feel sorry for the woman that gets involved with you.

You should feel lucky that the dommes here decided to respond with bitterness instead of a myriad of boots to your ass!

All hail the whip-wielding, yielding to no man, ass-kicking American dommes!
