ORIGINAL: FTopinMichigan I don't do chit chat online anymore, but when I did, I just got tired of the standard questions. "asl?" "Are you female" (although of course it came through: RU f?)...then, "Are you sub?" (cause the profile listed BDSM as an interest, and of course all women are subs right? ) "Would you......?" followed by "I want...." So I figured, I'd save some time, and list that I was a female Top from Michigan. My handle on Yahoo is the same, but from Detroit, to be more specific. I still get asked the same questions though. K ME TOO!! When I had the name EmeraldSlave2 and would hang out in the chats on AOL I'd constantly be asked "Are you sub?" or "r u sub?" No...the name is just being ironic. This is the explanation I gave for becoming LA: A lot has changed in my life recently, partners, life choices, future plans. With that change has come new perspectives within me and expressed through me. Rarely does that transfer into a change of name as I prefer stability. However, this recent transition has caused me to feel a true need to push out into something new. The main reason I chose to switch to a new name here is because I felt the name "EmeraldSlave" was limiting perceptions and growth of myself. I'm a lot more than a slave, I interact in many other ways, in ways most slaves don't. I changed to a new name without this specific orientation listed in it in order to bring a fresher, less loaded, perception into play. People can react to me as me, and not so much worry about the "slave" issue. The idea of "albatross" comes from Serenity, the movie. I am a devoted Browncoat and the symbolism of an albatross, especially as seen from the perspective of Firefly, is a deeply emotional one for me. I felt it resonated within myself and expressed a new self perspective. I like Lucky because it's simple and because so many (wrongly) believe that the albatross is a sign of bad luck. I love irony. So there you have it.
