New Roommates and Toy Boxes - 9/1/2009 8:36:02 PM

Status: offline 		I am a gay sub male in Dallas. Because I can only barely meet my financial obligations, I will be moving from my own nice little apartment into an unfortunately decorated (pink *gag*) room located in a three bedroom house with a woman I grew up with, who is like a sister, and her boyfriend. They are straight and for the most part vanilla. I am not comfortable sharing my kinkiness with them. Has anyone here had a similar living situation, and could relate their experiences being kinky in a vanilla household?

I also have a collection of toys that will be making the move with me. In my current apartment I give them their own drawer, no lock. I don’t expect privacy to be an issue at all but I also expect that my housemates will find themselves in my room at some point. So, I need a toy box. I would like one with a lock but I was hoping someone could point out a good one online.

BDSM activities have a tendency to be somewhat noisier.  Expect to either address the issue of overnight guests right up front, or expect not to host any visitors.  Chances are, a lifelong friend close to you in age will be pretty accepting of your proclivities.

Status: offline 		The metal foot locker's that I have seen were easily broken into. lol That's why I went with the plastic one. Mine was like an ice chest without the wall that made it one. Very sturdy and no one was getting into that without a lot of work. I think we found it at ace hardware.

As long as it is obvious I don’t want them in it I don’t think they will try to get in to my stuff. I love locks, but the most important features are size, and opaqueness.

I can have guys over. I just need to hang something on the door knob. And let the roommates know when someone is staying over. I plan to be kinky outside the house. I would hate to wake anyone up with my barking. :P

Status: offline 		Not a toy box per se, but my main toybag is a 30" long rolling duffel bag I got at WalMart. The 2 main compartments have double zippers, so are easy to secure with padlocks. As a bonus, I don't have to unpack/repack when going somewhere with my toys. Just another option to think about.

Status: offline 		I often use a suitcase with a lock though when I had to expand to 2 suitcases it started to get a little tricky lol.  and yes under the bed works good I've done that as well.
Another trick I have done is have a small case with things that are more regularly used and a bigger one for stuff that is only sometimes.

I was living in a kink household once, so I had a trunk I labeled "Math and Physics textbooks". There was so much dust on that one, it was ridiculous.

I just toss everything into the closet of the room we call my closet. If someone goes snooping and finds something, they deserve the embarrassment they are going to experience!
