a lot of boys are out of work now. Women should not be surprised to having to select subs who are unemployed

if I work a boy is definitely required to work...
even if I don't work a boy must work...it is part of him being a responsible boy.
have yet to meet an unemployed boy...no specific pattern, seen yet.

Having to select subs? Who will make us?

Status: offline 		I couldn't say that there is a trend one way or the other.  In My personal experience, subs come from all occupations.  As for Myself, I tend to find a number of engineers.  Lashara pointed out that many seem to be drawn to the military, but that is true of both subs and Doms.  There are also quite a few who are in the medical field.

My current sub is in the military and is a nurse.  I've had engineers (of course), waiters, a massage therapist, and one high management.  Yes, employment of some kind is a requirement.

Status: offline 		Thanks for the replies everybody.

Just to clarify -- I don't doubt that there are subs (and Doms) in all walks of life.  And I wasn't really trying to consider whether the job itself had some kind of dominant or submissive nature.  It was more along the lines of, if the person has a job where they work with their hands a lot, or have the type of job that's more physical than mental, I would say they're less likely to be a sub.  I think this lines up with the Myers Briggs results that NTs tend to be overrepresented among the S-types (although, Sea, I agree -- sample bias in these kinds of things is a real problem).

There are always exceptions to the rule, of course, but unless I'm really misreading the replies, except for a few cases (drywall/construction, nurse, massage therapist, firefighter, plumber), anecdotally anyway, it seems to be (kind of?) true.  These exceptions seem to be outweighed by all the geeky IT/engineer/laywer/creative/legal types...  But it's hardly scientific, is it?  And a couple of people brought up the very good point that in this economy people are taking whatever kinds of jobs they can get, so there might be even less correlation just because of simple necessity...  E.g., maybe someone's a laid off IT guy and had to get a job stocking produce at Publix or whatever.

Anyway, it was just a stray thought.... I think the Myers-Briggs result is more along the lines of what I was thinking anyway.  Heh, male sub thinking...  See what I mean?

A friend once told me that she LOVED going to full service shoe stores because almost every man in that industry was (to some extent) a foot fetishist and she could tease all day long without having to take them home and fuck them - LOL

Status: offline 		why? why should it be Lady Pact. are you blinded to the economic reality out there right now? and why should you expect people to be employed when in the one and the same breath You openly admit to having fired people. Are you not one of the root causes of unemployment by doing this? do you not see the relationship between you and other employers firing people for ok economic reasons and the steady increase in unemployment? if people were not fired they would have work. if employers did not think about the money end of things alone, if person A does not make money for me this week,  i will fire him /her etc, then we would not be in the predicament we are in. the crisis has been caused by unscrupulous employers firing their workers because they cant now make the millions they made in the good times by working the shit out of their employees and paying them buttons to do it. so what do i attribute the economic crisis which has befallen the world. ? in one word greed. Employers greed

Myers-Briggs result

I wouldn't put too much faith in the Myers-Briggs test.  It's right up there with phrenology as a way to interpret human behavior.

Status: offline 		I was wondering about phrenology, Red - particularly in relation to the simple matter of dominants' and submissives' head-sizes.  However, my findings so far have been counterintuitive.  My own head is quite large, yet I met a dominant woman recently with a head the size of a peanut.  So pop goes that theory. 

It's come to my attention that dominant women tend to have longer noses than usual, though.  I shall report back with my findings after more extensive research.

I've never seen such crappy science, and you call yourself an academic?  Pathetic.  Was it a shelled peanut or an unshelled peanut?  Did it have its skin on?  Was it roasted in oil, dry-roasted, or raw?  Was this a double-blind study?  And, finally, are suggesting that we're all nuts?  You go back and do that study again, properly.

Edited to add:  Technically, peanuts are legumes, but perhaps you were implying that we are full of beans?  (For the Yanks out there, "full of beans" is a British expression meaning "to have a lot of energy."  It does not refer to a particularly bad case of flatulence.)
