ORIGINAL: SirRussellP I can't speak to what old guard means in the military since I was speaking of bdsm OG. Old Guard was started by a group of gay black man that served in the World War and found the lifestyle in Europe. They came back here to the US and continued forming a BDSM based on a sort of military order structure. You started as a sub and learned to serve until you earned your leather, this is also one of the start of the leatherman. I doubt that most of the answers here were either done with honor or with any real knowledge. Oh and before the net people did know more then just bedroom M/s. Though at the moment it seems that it is just easier to be like children that think they know it all. If that sound like a person that understands more then chatroom D/s it is because I do. Russell - Not that it matters one way or the other. But, wow.. that is some type of next level knowledge. You know, Jill Carter is widely recognized as a person extremely knowledgable of the black leather community, being that she is a woman of color and has about 40 years experience within the black leather community. While she states, (common knowledge, here) that the leather community was created by 'gay bikers returning from WWII', she also states (I'm quoting her verbatim), "scant evidence exists regarding the history of people of color within the early stages of the leather community." I suppose it is true, "you learn something new everyday."
