New in London - 1/25/2011 5:53:49 AM

Status: offline 		Hi all,

Looking at my last two relationships, I realised that I got a lot of satisfaction from the dominant elements. Now I find myself looking for a serious relationship, but not sure what to do about my desire to give frequent spankings! Rather than see if my partner is interested after weeks or months, I figured I should start looking in a place where kink can reasonably be presumed :-)

I have tried to give an idea of what I'm looking for in my profile text - feedback would be appreciated. Are there obvious things I have missed out? Am I over-sharing?

Thanks :-)

I perved coz ya asked... your profile is fine apart from that first paragraph... not that it isn't good, just that some people might only get that far and then stop, missing the rest of the profile. There is no reason why you can't be funny, but maybe put it in the profile midway through. The only negative thing to me is the whole 'under 32' age thing - kinda restrictive. But then, I'm 40 so maybe I'm just bitter...

I'd recommend using the forums too and don't just rely on the profile if you have the time to spend the occasional bit of time here.

Have fun!

Best get yourself to some TNG groups post haste before you become too old for them.

Welcome.

KK

ps - do add some pictures. They are easy to anonymize.

I might bump into you there!

urbandictionary.com is usually pretty good but missed the BDSM angle of TNG.

You must have a digi cam, or chances are your computer has a webcam, do a few shots with it, as an example you could wear a hat that hides your face by throwing a shadow, depending on hair, a profile where your hair hide part of your face, light and shadow... Plenty of ways to get creative, you could even pixelate it....

Your profile looks fine but why can she only be up to 2 years younger than you? Is something going to implode if she's the same age as you, or heaven forbid a week or two older? Not criticizing, it's your call but it just seems a bit odd why you would draw the line at "maximum age 2 years younger", just seems like you are narrowing down a small pool by adding more obstacles. Just a thought...

I don't think the metadata matters here (might be wrong - not techie enough) but I think she means taking out your face or pixelating/blurring in case you don't wish your face to be instantly recognisable. There are lots of arty/photo programmes that can do that.

No you aren't - IndelibleMarker who runs the saturday one is pretty clear that the age thing is a guide, not a limit - it's more to do with whether or not people are comfortable with the atmosphere of the munch. He calls it the 'Ubiquitous35' to show that, although I can never bring myself to say that with a straight face...

We really should jump along there... but the midweek thang makes it less easy for us because of travel and we have been mega busy on weekends. Fortunately one has just started locally... but we missed the first one (that's what we get for not being visiting IC in what seems forever) but are planning to make next months. yay!
