I'm not sure where I first heard the term bibliophile, but I think it might have had something to do with a completely cracktastick converstation I had in highschool about exactly why Hermione Granger spends so much time in the library.

I think you hit it smack on the head, feydeplume, when you said that focusing too much on the words takes away from the power of the experience. People get so hung up about what is 'right' and 'wrong', it just sapps all of the meaning and fun out of what is ultimately a fun experience. Its why I can't get into the whole Gorean thing. No offence or disrespect to anyone who is Gorean, but for me it's too close to going to church, what with the pomp and ritual and all that jazz. I'd rather just wing it.

On a side note - last nights mental masturbation sent my forum status from Vanilla straight to Kinky. How awesomely pathetic is that? XD

Lashra
I have formed a loving D/s relationship with my male sub. We do things according to what fits our relationship. To my way of thinking that is how all relationships should be, but some people would disagree with me and that is fine. Because when it comes down to it, these relationships are made up of individuals and not everyone is going to have the same needs, desires, wants or perspectives. So when you take in information remember not all of it is factual or desirable, only you can decide which is true for you.

Lashra, I am one of those that agrees with you. I've read many of your posts and love how much respect and love you have for your submissive. I've also seen how focused, fair, non-reactive, supportive and non-judgmental you are of others. I admire that greatly. And you've shared how much you love the sensuality and raw sexuality. What a lovely balance. It is reading posts such as yours that I realize what I dream will happen.

Nine months ago I was so unsure and terrified from all these feelings that came up. I was attempting to establish a relationship with someone online and it wasn't working. I was not Old Guard and she was. As a result, I thought I had no place in the world of BDSM. And now I know differently. So I thank you, and many others, for showing me I can have the type of relationship that will nurture me as a human being; that I can be cared about and have romance as well as D/s and perhaps even M/s. And, my Domme will benefit just as much from what I can offer her, *AND*, as a result, I just hope we can make the world a little bit of a better place.

I thank you, fey, Sfortzando and others for such wonderful support, whether you know it or not. And now you do!

Sláinte,
TT
