Ex-fukin-zactly, Ebony! OP, you might be interested in this quote:
ORIGINAL: LadyPact This is a question that keeps coming to Me over and over from reading the boards here. It could be that I'm missing something, and I'm hoping My fellow D folks can help Me out. See, I have a little confusion on this matter because I tend to believe that I think differently than many people out there. As I assess My situation, I understand that I am the person in authority in a power dynamic. I happen to think it's a rather successful one. Not perfect by any means, but it's working for Me and it's working for My boy. To Me, logically, that means that in the past two and a half years since the beginnings of this dynamic formed, since the final authority rested with Me regarding decisions, minimally, I must have at least gotten some of it right. If I hadn't, I doubt that this dynamic would have formed and continued to exist. This doesn't mean that I've never had a question about it or solicited advice. I absolutely have in those times that I thought I could gain more information or hear different perspectives. Once obtained, I use it to help Me base decisions that I had the original question on. Then, if no new information is presented to Me, I make My final decision, and move along. Until such time as things change, that is how things will be done. In other words, that's it. The committee is over. Often, I have written things on these boards that have not been popular opinion. When I've been in the minority, I've simply shrugged My shoulders and said that's how things work around here for whatever it is and those who disagree with My opinion aren't involved in this dynamic, so it makes the point moot. That goes from everything to rituals, to writing style, to any other thing. It ain't broke, so your (general) opinion on it doesn't matter a lot to Me. I see this as being rational. So, My question in turn to other Dominants is, why do you care about such things when it comes to your own world? What does it matter to you if someone has a different opinion than you when it concerns your dynamic? Why do the opinions of so many random strangers have such an impact?
