ORIGINAL: OralCuckGurl It is interesting that so many seem to assume that I am describing someone who would sit around the house all day. Or someone who would be expensive. Or someone who could not support himself if he had to, much less anyone else. I think that my comments disavowed those stereotypes. I think because a lot of us have had men live with us under the pretense of a 'houseboy' or slaveboy, or even an attentive boyfriend, only to have them sit around and do nothing. Or do very little. Let's be honest here, it's not a slam against submissives, it's a personality issue. There are some people who are NOT self starters. There are some people who function better going to an office. Not everyone can be self employed. Running a house hold and being a domestic requires a lot of skills that are not necessarily aligned or addressed totally with, "I like to please." Further, the traits like "I like to follow direction," and "I do well under close supervision" and "I respond to punishment," and "I get an erotic thrill being a kept man" are actually probably very, very, VERY bad to have in a stay-at-home-sub, despite the fact that many subs think these are wonderful qualities. I would read those and go - no way, NOT good houseboy material. Any woman who is self employed and running a business knows she needs a total self starter who needs VERY LITTLE direction and who is not needing a lot of supervision. He just knows what needs to get done and does it. Also, any time you have a huge erotic tie to something that must just simply get done, for the sake of the relationship AND the sake of a business, it only stands to cause huge erotic tension when things go wrong. Or if the sub isn't "feeling subby" that day. Akasha
