Well, it's been My experience that they are. (I'm not talking about guys who call themselves Doms, who've had a profile here--or on sites such as this--for a couple weeks, but who have yet to meet an actual submissive female--let alone play with one...!) I learned flogging from a local Dom who had more than ten years' real-time experience in the lifestyle, and I've learned a great deal about BDSM in general from two other local doms, each of whom had several decades of experience. The books I've read, and the comments of many members here, certainly suggest that finding a mentor is a good idea for new Doms. Yes, there are things a submissive cannot learn from a Dom, but that shouldn't be to say that a new submissive can't learn anything from a Dom. Certainly, having an experienced Dom as a guide and mentor, ought to be better than being alone on one's journey... quote:
