BeachMystress -> The One True Way (4/3/2006 6:17:15 AM)

I ran into a "One True Way"er the other day. I was surprised. I've known this person in chat for quite some time. I've met them in person at dungeon functions once or twice. I was shocked. I'd no clue I personally knew any of the "One True Way"ers. A young femsub (we'll call her kit) who visits the room in which we chat said that her Dom lets her sass back to him.. that he finds it funny. The "One True Way" sub immediately told kit that her Dom wasn't a true Dominant or Master and that kit wasn't a true sub. I asked the "OTW" sub how she determined that kit's Master was neither a Master or a Dominant. She tole me that No Real True Dom would put up with that from his sub. That it was disrespectful and rude and she couldn't believe that kit claimed to be submissive. That her claiming submission disrespected all real true subs everywhere.. That she was a bottom maybe, but in no way a TRUE submissive. I tried to point out to "OTW" that kit said her Dom liked it, and how does it make it dominance breaking thing if he enjoys her doing it. I was told that it just did. I tried to reason with "OTW," asking how it made someone less Dominant to do exactly what they want? I pointed out that it didn't make a Domme any less Dominant to give her sub a blow job if it is what she wants and she retains control of the act. That sent her into a bit of a tizzy. A Dominant would never... *eye roll* When she wound down some, I asked her how Dominant it made someone to follow the rules set out by others. Well, that doesn't make a Dominant in either of our opinions. I mentioned that if someone who had a playful streak and enjoyed banter with their sub listened to "the way it is done" and altered their play style to fit in, they were no longer Dominant. They'd subbed to the will of those who say how it will be done. It isn't Dominant to do what everyone expects of you. It is Dominant to be in control and do what YOU want. "OTW" felt that was fine and good, as long as they "acted Dominant." *deep sigh* Needless to say, I did not manage to convert the "One True Way"er. I was disheartened to find One True Wayism so close to home.
