Too many folks into Domination and Submission are judgemental. The 'One Twue Way' folks hate on the kinksters. The Goreans get picked on quite a bit, as do the polyamorous folks. Wake the f**k up! Everyone else hates us! Christ onna cracker, does no one ever leave the f**king house? I get hated on for being Catholic, not being 'Catholic enough', being a 'girl' lawyer, not being Polish, not knowing the history of the Czech Republic, being too fat, being a smoker, etc. etc. etc. In the past, I've been hated on for not being Puerto Rican, not being Cuban, not being Ukranian, being a 'Yankee bitch', ad nauseum. I do NOT need to add 'being kinky' to the repetorie of things I get hated on for here in Cleveland. When I come to the CM message boards, it's to relax and enjoy the company of folks like me. I expect to learn about Domination and Submission, and to get the 'kink' viewpoint of folks here. I love reading posts from IronBear, the.dark., and Termynator. LordandMaster has always been the most erudite of all CM members, and the depth of his knowledge on the most arcane of subjects has been amazing to me. LadyEllen's posts are fascinating to me. So are missturbation's. (If I haven't named you, it's because I did not want this Op to be 5 ft long, LOL.) I know everyone is invested in their POV but when I read shit like 'this is my lifestyle' I cannot help wondering WTF! You're not a property owner? A taxpayer? A member of your own family? I had a freaking LIFE before I found D/s, and I still do. I have shit to do, though I am semi-retired. Before we start hating on one another, can't we all *pause and reflect* a bit? Do we really need to tell someone inexperienced in dating off the 'net to *get out and meet real people*? You never know who will read what you have written. Do you really want to contribute to someone else's misfortune? The men hate the women. The lesbians hate the men. The Caucasians hate the African-Amerians. The 'evangelicals' hate the Catholics. And everyone hates the lawyers. Can't we be a bit more supportive of one another? More accepting? When so many folks are hated on in real life, can't we *ease off the gas a bit*? Do you honestly think that society at large is going to treat *us* kinksters any better than it has been treating gay and lesbian folks, and those of us who love some folks but are straight?
