ORIGINAL: StrongSpirit My first clue about someone being a 'wannabe' is if a submissive displays anger, particularly in their profile. There's nothing wrong with feeling angry, but I don't understand why you would be displaying it when searching for a dominant. Because it's a public space to voice their feelings about the scene, and it sends a message to prospective doms that being submissive does not in fact equate doormat ( and that's an answer to an earlier post in this thread too ). Being submissive or dominant rarely changes ones emotional spectrum. Some dominants don't get that submissives feel anger at being misused; that we may have a sense of self-worth, pride and a functioning critical faculty when it comes to prospective dominants. I don't vent on my profile, but having had a fair share of the usual assholes-on-line and real-life fakers, I fully understand those that do. To be fair, there are users and abusers - in the bad sense, just to be clear - on both sides of the dom-sub coin, but I think it's only natural for people to express their feelings on the matter. If it scares away potential partners, then that's their choice, and they likely wouldn't have been a good fit with those people anyway.
