This, all of it! quote:
ORIGINAL: Abstracts Well, now that you have been put in your place (and I say that in a light hearted, joking way) we can have a constructive conversation. Perhaps some submissives are single, not because of their limits, but because they are prone to letting their emotions get ahead of them and stirring up confrontation. Sound familiar? Just as dominants and submissives have their places in this lifestyle, so do limits. Having limits does not make someone a bad sub. They don't necessarily make them a good sub, but they are a step in that direction in my opinion. If you plan on speaking in generalities, you have to look at the whole picture. People, not just people of this lifestyle but vanillas and others as well, are complicated. There could be any number of factors as to why someone is still single and those factors will differ from person to person. Sure, a lot of subs that are single happen to have limits but a lot of subs who are taken have limits as well. Do you know why? Because a lot of subs have limits in GENERAL, understand? You have them too. If you didn't you wouldn't HAVE anything for you to expand upon, you would simply be utterly willing to do whatever was asked of you, regardless of whether it harms you or not. Contradicting yourself is bad. Stop it. And along the lines of what Lockit was saying, you are a part of a community. I have not been here that long, not even as long as you, but I have noticed that people who try to order others around aren't generally tolerated and that's regardless of whether they are dominant or submissive. The deciding factor here, on whether or not someones request and advice is heeded, is respect. Respect must be earned and once it is earned it must be maintained at all times. And this is just the tip of the ice burg of my opinion. So in short, Lady, THINK before you speak.
