ORIGINAL: labrat18610 There's something about a dominant male. I'm not sure what it is, but there seems to be a "trust" factor. This is how I met my first Master. I was at a gay bar. This short, scrawny guy with glasses walked in. Within a few minutes, people were lined up to buy him drinks. I was watching him from aross the room. Then I got the guts to get closer to him. He looked at me and threw me his car keys. He said, "It's the blue caddy in the back lot. Bring around to the frontdoor." I said, "Okay", but it was more of a "Yes, Sir". While, I didn't think of it at the time, I could have stolen his car. I just wanted to please this guy. All my Masters had this "trust" quality. So, I was wondering when a dominant male first realizes that other people are eager to serve and please him. And what was his first act of dominance? People have been both trusting and scared of me since I was eight years old. It's not everyone, they're not terrifed and immediately fall on their faces in a grovelling position. Nor do they suddenly spill the contents of their skeleton-hiding closet before me. When I knew I could control, I was a little scared myself. When I knew I could trust my own judgment...that would be when I could have taken the title of Master, but it wasn't offered to me until a few years later when I had my first D/s encounter. I think both fear and trust can be encouraged, and done so properly, I can easily posit how this appears to others as a 'built-in factor'. Just remember...trust is good to have, good to share...but it should be tempered with a bit of common sense. Oh. And if the trust factor isn't there, Dom or no, think before acting - it's a great way to avoid regret...
