Awer, you guys are actually making me feel better. You all are right, after all. Someday that little voice in the back of my head that allows me to care what someone who says I'm fake says will disappear. grabbyhands for a tiara from LadyHibiscus!

OP, you are bothered by this about the same way I am bothred by messages to my boy. In my thread about protecting my orperty.. its the same thought process. Why should we care? Becasue we do. It isnt going to change my life if someone speaks that way to Fox, nor is it going to change yours if someone tells you you are fake. But, it bothers us. For no apparent reason. Me, I just deal, write the note i want to write and feel better knowing I said my piece. I reference it often, but its case of the Fox and the Grapes. They cant have what they want, so there must be something wrong with it and it be unappealing. DV

Amaros -> RE: Why does it matter so much? (6/30/2008 5:38:13 PM)
It doesn't matter, but even iconoclasts such as ourselves desire a certain degree of social approval, if only within our social circle - chances are good however, that people who bandy the word fake around, particularly during negotiations with a spoken for submissive without going through her dominant, a simple matter of paying proper respect to her chosen partner, is not going to be a very popular fellow in any event.

You should have led him on. Think of all the fun you could have had imagining him waiting at an airport for hours.

I have to actually care about someone to be bothered.

quote: ORIGINAL: GabrielleSlave i have just been called a fake for the first time. My first instinct was "Yey, i must be real then!" but then i felt hurt and upset. This so called Dom imparted this valuable opinion of me because i did not swoon when he told me i had to pick him up at the airport and put him up in my home to ensure i was real. i challenged him by saying that i would do no such thing, being an owned slave... and BINGO, he came up with the conclusion that i was a fake. My problem therefore is not with him, how could it be? It is with my reaction to what he said. i know that what Master and i have is very real, so why on earth should it matter what an idiot in Germany thinks??? Gabrielle x it sounds like you let a real keeper slip through your fingers.

quote: ORIGINAL: bipolarber Let's see... I have been called a "fake" because: (apologies to Jeff Foxworthy) 1) If you claim to be into something that the person you're talking to doesn't believe really exists... you must be a fake! 2) If you refuse to submit so someone, right there at the play party, even though you are obviously wearing a collar... you might be a fake! (and the fact that the creep who wants you to submit hasn't had a shower in a week obviously didn't have a thing to do with it.) 3) If you claim to be bisexual... you must be a fake. 4) If you claim to be a switch... you must be a fake! 5) If you claim to have "hard limits"... you must be a fake! 6) If you refuse to have sex, along with your BDSM play... you must be a fake! 7) If you don't act like a porn star, dropping to your knees to service the guy you are dating... just because you want to hear the rest of the pastor's sermon... you must be a fake! 8) If you have gained a couple of pounds, and just haven't had a chance to update your profile photo from two years ago... you must be a fake. 9) If you don't want to boarder a total stranger, from a foreign country, in your home for an undisclosed period of time... you must be a fake. 10) If you DO want sex with your BDSM play... you must be a fake! Try making up your own... it's fun, and the list never seems to exhaust itself! 3 if you actually imagine his voice, it works out very well.

quote: ORIGINAL: GabrielleSlave quote: ORIGINAL: StrangerinBlack It is because you value the love and connection that you share with you Master, that the sugestion it might be false seems so offensive. We can't control the way we respond to things, but we can look at our responses and learn about ourselves from them. In this case I just think that your responce shows that you are a loving person, and has nothing to do with the German dude at all. What a wonderful way of putting it, if i could hug you i would! You guys have made me feel better already, thankyou! Gabrielle x Thanks, just glad to do my small part in keeping our cultural neurosis from ruining the day of yet another genuinly feeling person. Have faith in your integrity of your compassion, and realize that most of the time, our fears are just pointing towards the things we care most about.

Gabrielle x Good for you! NO one, especially a female, should allow a stranger to shack up with them like that. He should have expected to get a room somewhere, and then if things go well, been pleasantly surprised by your hospitality. Miss 'Bella

MistressSybella -> RE: Why does it matter so much? (6/30/2008 8:22:54 PM)
It happens to all of us, I think. I was called a fake once...just once. Someone claiming to be a lesbian female slave contacted me with a brief but friendly message. Since we were both online at that moment but I couldn't stay and chat, I responded to be courteous. I told her that I had to run out the door, for a nail appointment, but would write more shortly. Within seconds, she countered, "You are a man!" I was so shocked, I answered right then, "What!?! No, I am not." She hit me with 3 or 4 more short messsages, insistent, informing me that I was a man and nothing I could say or do would prove to her otherwise. I have no clue how she got to this conclusion but decided it wasn't my job to prove anything to a crazy person. I came to the conclusion that she contacted me just to be snotty. She was the first one ever to be put on my block list AND I ended up late for my nail appointment on top of being irritated. LOL! Some people just cannot and will not be pleased. How does that saying go? I can only please one person per day. Today isn't your day and tomorrow doesn't look good either...yes, I think that's it. ;) Miss 'Bella

Gabrielle x Some (fake...ehrm) doms will scream fake if you don't do anything they say. Now here's their point of view: Lots of fake sub profiles. They have to prove that this is not another one of them. So, it's just a case of paranoia over the internet. And some will take it to the extreme of loafing off of ya. Some (fake) Doms come into the lifestyle seeking easier, breezier funner times than without BDSM. They neglect the acting more responsible and trustworthy part, to help a sub successfully into that dynamic....and build a thriving BDSM relationship. The (real) Doms focus on building the power exchange aspect.... rather than Dom convenience, and if a slave makes life easier for them or not (which should be a secondary result of successfully building and executing a BDSM power exchange). They see the reaping, without the sowing... tsk, tsk to them for forgetting the sowing part... Anyone that tries to get you to be a sub (when they're not your Master yet) via intimidation or name calling, is a FAKE. Whether you are real or not comes later (after you find a real dom and assess your slave skills). At the beginnning, the primary thing is to avoid those Fake Dom dipshits. I'm sorry you had to endure that.

You can try and harden yourself against them but words are really quite powerful. I'm sorry that it happened but my best advice is to delete, ignore and snuggle your owner.

To the OP I was at a munch the other day and I was brought up short .. someone who knows me real time, but has never interacted with DV at any level even just on a message board , and has never seen me with DV or behing in what could be recognised as "in protocol".. said that I was genuine .. that I was the real deal. I have gotten so used to be called a fake - used to taking crap from being "online" and LDR, for the dynamic of our relationship etc etc that someone actually face to face with me saying I was the real deal ... I was shocked. I felt pathetically grateful for having that recorgnised by someone other than DV and my very small circle of intimate friends. I don't need approval of anyone but myself, I don't even honestly NEED it (like I can survive without it) from DV ... but I want approval, I desire it, it makes me happy to feel it. If you are told something enough times, it starts to have a seed of truth for you ... thats just being humna, you just need to stop that seed from growing
