Aha! I made the loophole. Both of My prior posts on the thread are still here.
When it comes to how the scales are tipped in the number of lifestyle vrs the number of pro, you're going to find a much different imbalance here as opposed to real life events. If all you are going to do is look on the internet, you're going to come up with completely different numbers and percentages as you are at various venues. It really does come down to advertising and there just isn't enough potential pay off for pros to attend small, local groups. Bigger venues, such as nationally recognized events, you'll see more because there are a lot of people there and there is a higher chance to see potential customers. On the net, once something is typed up, it's already out there and it has a continued chance of being seen. That's why there are more pros here.
At the same time, there are also now a number of lifestyle women who get tired of repeating the same exercise. I promise you this isn't just from Me. It becomes a topic and just about every munch. A number of males want to chat and all of that to satisfy their curiosity for the moment, but they can't seem to follow through and go to the munch. This leads more and more Dominant women to adopting policies similar to what I have. I'm more than happy to meet anyone at the munch I attend, but I'm not willing to invest much time in them until I see for Myself that they are willing to show up. My time is just as valuabe as anyone else's and I don't have hours upon hours to waste on somebody that doesn't pan out.
One thing that hasn't been touched on in this discussion that a lot of male bottoms/subs fail to see. It's great that people want to play. However, if you really expect the Domme to foot the bill for all of the toys and all of the costumes, etc, you might want to think about what your contribution is in all that. You want to be bound, blindfolded, and gagged? You really do need to provide those things. Same thing for those types of play that are single person or single time use. If you're a needle bottom, help with the costs of needles. It isn't cool to say in one breath that you don't want to become involved in a tribute situation (which, I don't blame you for, because I honestly feel the same way) and at the same time expect the top to cover all of the expenses.
Last but not least, yes, coming across as nasty on the subject isn't going to help anybody's cause. I'm not a pro domme, but being ugly about the subject is going to have some lifestyle Dommes think that you're not a pleasant person to be with. It works the same as a lot of height/weight proportionate women won't date men who run women down who are overweight. It's just not attractive.
