*Snigger*.  Jen's embarrassed.  I've noticed that some people vanish from threads the moment someone compliments them.  Funny how that works.

Ya know...I'm gonna have to go with Ronne on this one.

Ma'am read that one for the first time said ..."He doesn't get that you complement a boi on the dick size, does he?"

It gave us a laugh for quite a few days.

There's this "lesbian" I know, who is suddenly "homoflexible" and suddenly found an interest in men and I've been dying to send her this text message:

"Hillshire farms has an opening in their poultry division that pays $28.75 an hr. When they heard about how well you handle cock...well...you start on Monday."

Primarily because the response I would get would be "Well...just fuck you!" And I would laugh for days.

However, for some reason I have been distinctly told not to do this under severe penalty. AND, I'm temped to anyways because I enjoy my own humor that much.

boi

This has nothing to do with my opinions on cowards who can't own up to being bi because of the social stigma around the word "bisexual". Besides, I needed to share it at some point.

It just gives me great joy to think of someone's face turning red and steam coming out of her ears like in a cartoon. Understand, I am cruel because I experience my world as if it were a Bugs Bunny cartoon.

Okay, that is just mean. Which is not to say that I did not enjoy a good SNORK at the expense of my friend. Who let's hope just comes to her senses and goes back to knowing that grrrrls are better!

The total hypocrisy of the situation only adds to the amount of humor for me.

Ok...and now, since you have the joke and the person in mind, put a Bugs Bunny style cartoon vision over the incident and laugh your ass of, cuz it really is that funny.

Note I have yet to pursue my desire in this.

Behaving for now

The only important thing to know is that any diehard lesbian that received the previously mention text message might not have a great sense of humor around it. But the person telling the joke would get the laugh.

Comedian: How many feminists does it take to change a light bulb?

Feminist: That's not funny!

Did the Op ever mention whether this was an IRL Domme or a Domme he met online?  I think to be honest, that makes a huge difference in the type of advice he should get. I mean...I'd never give a random woman or man money for "online domination". 

My own boys tribute to me quite often in forms of backrubs, food, money, and other nice little trinkets and happy things. They, however live with me on a day to day basis.

Okay. Let's say you meet a guy and you invite him out for a few beers. How would it be if it ended up that you're buying all the beers? Fair? It's also not fair for him to be buying all the time, right? You you either buy 'rounds', your turn, his turn, or you buy your own, right?

This explains some of the tributes. Some of the guys want to meet the domme, who's got to of course supply the venue, the equipment, and of course wear certain clothes. This takes a bit of time, effort, and needless to say, money.

Now quite a number of male subs turn up, ready to submit, so they play, get on with what they're doing (that's if they turn up in the first place) and then when the scene's over they leave. This leaves said domme with the cleaning up to do, putting the equipment away, and also changing out of that certain clothing she wore.

Seems a bit one-sided, right? So she gets wise after a few of these meetings and she starts asking for a tribute. It could be anything, stockings, a book, chocolate, a bit of money, but some token of appreciation for all the effort she's gone to to put everything together (and it's not that easy from the domme side of things). Would you call this a scam?

Yes there are some others who want a financial contribution, to help pay a bill, the rent, also on a quid pro quo basis, and these I would suggest are akin to pro-dommes. It's nothing more than a nice little sideline, but very much on the basis of what is above - appreciation for her time and effort. Again, would you call this a scam?

Some guys would, but that's because they think BDSM is about sex, and even if she's not handing out the condoms when he arrives they still think she's a prostitute and scamming them. It's this notion that BDSM=sex. For some yes, but not necessarily so.

No need to go into pro-dommes, let them speak for themselves.

And then you get the dommes which very clearly aren't dommes, but vanilla women out for whatever they can get, whether it be top ups on their cellphone, additional cash, sexual gratification, free domestic cleaning, or whatever else. They call it BDSM but it isn't, it's exploitation and the rule of the game is simple - get as much as you can out of whoever without giving anything back in return.

The problem is is that there's a lot of guys out there also playing the exploitation game and so there's a grey area where some aren't sure and a darker area where everyone, male subs, dommes, and everyone else loses.


Well put and probably considerations that a potential may not have mulled in their little heads.  I've chatted with a few time suckers and when asked what is in this for me never could get a response.   In order for any relationship to work there has to be something in it for everyone or it will fail.  Often before it ever begins.

Personally speaking, I pay tribute every day with a foot rub when She gets home. She got Her "dream ring" for x-mas and a nice new pair of boots for v-day. I LIKE to give Her things and find no problem doing the work to afford them. My next goal in tribute: a house! lol


This is similar to my relationship. My Lady and I both work, but my entire paycheck goes into her checking account, and she gives me an allowance, deposited into my savings account. And I do a fabulous foot or back rub!

We did not start the financial arrangement, however, until we had been in a stable relationship for about a year. Since she makes all the financial decisions and takes charge of the bank account reconciliation and such, it made sense for all the money to be in one pot where she could easily pay bills. If I want something special, I can ask for it. And if I am buying presents I have my savings, my PayPal, and I can write a check if I want (and don't mind it not being a surprise!)

This type of financial arrangement is not one to be entered upon without due thought and care. We each hold one another's power of attorney, we're both signatories on all accounts. I don't mess with the checking account without permission, but in an emergency -- say, god forbid, she were hospitalized -- I can handle the household finances and pay bills and buy medicines. We went to consult with an attorney and described the kinds of protections we wanted, and we set up legal instruments to safeguard both of us,

My "tribute" isn't really the money. It's the trust that she will be a wise money manager. We both contribute to the success of our relationship. It's a team effort.  My "tribute" is also the personal care I lavish on her. Tribute is the fact that not one day has passed in 15 years that I failed to tell her that she is beautiful and that I love her. It's that I know what foods and drinks she likes, and make sure she gets them. I butter her rolls for her at a restaurant. I rub her feet when she comes home tired from work.

Honestly, we ALL pay something for sex. In a relationship you pay a lot of compromises, you pay attention to your partner, you pay in inconvenience in meeting their needs. If all you want is a session, you pay hard, cold cash.

I think the key is that people need to evaluate what they really want, and moreover what they are willing to give to have it. Most women don't want to just be a booty call, and if that's what a man wants, I don't see cash as a bad repayment for it. But if a person is willing to invest time, energy, personal emotion, caring, and effort into a relationship, then I think the rewards are greater.

So, OP, I'd suggest just clicking past the tribute-seekers if what you want is a long term relationship. If you just want a free booty call, well, those are out there also, but it's not generally what women want, so you are going to have a tough time finding it.

STILL none of you have sent me monies!! What IS the secret to this whole tribute thing, anyway?? Sheesh.

(and for you serious types, the subling, though an underemployed student, often offers me surprise tokens---and HIM I am not asking!!)

It is an odd thing looking in on this side of the Dom equation from time to time.

Do you people understand what a gift is?

It is not a gift when extorted or demanded. What kind of a gift is that?

If a woman has to nag me in order to get a valentine's day gift it means that I never really cared enough to go out and get her something on my own volition. Does someone even feel remotely warm upon receiving this type of "gift?" It is nothing more than me handing her some cash and saying, "go knock yourself out, go get yourself something pretty" just to get her off of my back.

Now if you are a pro and running a dungeon of doom than it would be expected that cash would exchange hands for the service provided.

If you are living together then I would assume that expenses would be negotiated by all involved.

I do feel kind of sorry for the little male subbies.

Mine brings me surprises, like flowers 'just because". Totally unneccessary. He buys dinner sometimes. Other times I do. Whoever has more free cash that week, pretty much... isn't that how real life is?

But I DO hate cheap men. The man who meets me for coffee and does not even OFFER to front me for a refill? Well, he isn't going to get a very favourable review from me. I have to wonder if it is all them, or if all the money grabbers make it seem like paying for dinner equals financial domination!

I agree with you, cheap men are a turn-off. It's always been my experience if a man is in the presence of a woman he admires and respects, he'll be happy to take the check(s).

FR,

Oh no . . . .

Buckle up, folks, I think we're might just be starting to go down that rocky old road again . . . .
