kinkyviolet -> RE: The trend of a subbmissive (7/1/2008 10:55:32 PM)

Since the OP seems to have abandonded this thread, I/we can only conjecture about what he really meant. Was he lamenting a lack of respect for subs in the general scene, or just the plethora of "humiliation" and "financial domination" type "femdom" profiles on CM? I'm going to assume the latter, since I have not experienced anything like the former in real life. As a male, I can attest first hand to the frustrations of searching for a compatible female dominant online (CM and other sites). As a transgendered male, it can be even more so. When you do a search and come up with nine matches, and five of those are the aforementioned "goddess" wannabes, it's pretty damn disheartening. Sure, you don't have to respond to those profiles, but it makes you wonder if that is the norm. I think that is the frustration that the OP is actually trying to express. And what Leatherist is talking about (as I see it) is that female subs (seeking male doms) just don't have that problem. There may be a large amount of dumbass "dominant" male profiles who have no respect for women, but as a percentage, there is no comparison, especially when you consider the relative number of males to females. On the other hand, many females have the opposite problem (which is preferable from my point of view) of having to wade through tons of undesirable responses to find a few compatible ones. Personally, my desires (and what I used to perceive as needs) have changed, and I (thankfully) do not have to go through the exasperating task of searching for a dominant female. Or rather, the task of searching for a dominant female is not so exasperating, as I have other options.
