As so often happens with polls in this place, I don't fit the little boxes provided.

Education? Technically, high school dropout with some college. In actuality, I can test out with the equivalent of a batchelor's in liberal arts, and I can damn near bullshit a postgraduate equivalent.

Orientation? SWITCH. We do exist. Really. BISEXUAL. Those exist too. Really. Honest and for true, I go both ways - or in this case ALL FOUR.

But the real questions are,

A) Why isn't this in the "Polls and Random Stupidity" area (though I'm sure one of the mods will come along and move it in a few)

B) Why don't you just read people's profiles? Gender, ethnicity, and orientation are all listed there. As for education, as I have just pointed out, convenient census bureau boxes don't always fit.

I am new to this group and thank you for your abrupt and rude welcome. I was just trying to get a feel for the cultural background of the group not to offend anyone. I never felt that trying to learn the environment that one is in as stupid or anything else but thank you again for sharing your thoughts.

Welcome to the site and the message forums Diamond Diva. I see your profile is now approved and the information is very brief, so I am not sure Myself what it is you seek. Perhaps this poll is important to you, but it is doubtful youwill get the response you seek, as many people here never ever visit this area.

But these boards are full of lots of info, friendly debate, and answers and different points of view to many sincere questions.

I am college grad, Caucasion, Female Dominant, seeking 24/7 TPE
live-in, and a Pro Domme. Many years experience in some areas, completely virginal in others. There is lots more on My profile.

To Suleiman, I did feel that your reply to DimaondDiva was a bit abrupt. In your own profile you state: Quote:

Mostly I'm here for the message boards. There are some extremely cool and knowledgeable folks on collarme, and for once in my life I'm not god's own expert on every topic that gets posted. I'm actually learning stuff from this site - which hasn't happened for me on a site like this one in a good long while. I am absolutely ecstatic! I can freely state my opinion and answer questions to the best of my ability, and if I'm wrong, someone will supply the correct answer without telling me I'm full of shit for having made a mistake. Heck - folks here actually answer MY questions, which also hasn't happened in a long time.

Do unto others?

Diamond I am a caucasion professional. Submissive to one. Most would consider me Dominant...other than my own Dom of course.
Straight female. Advanced degree.
Unless I know the person relatively well I don't tell my profession to the masses.

Ummmm Hi Diamond Diva welcome to CM forum!

Usually polls do go in the other section but no need to worry a mod will move it. (and i see they did as i was typing *grins*)

The forum is full of lots of different topics and i would love to hear Your thoughts on them all!

As for me obviously i am submissive --
Caucasian - some college (Web Designer) - bi curious who like Big Strong Doms *wiggles* -- No current Dom right now

Welcome again to the forum and don't get upset about Suleiman post, i haven't seen a poll yet that has a box for everyone that they need to check :) Suleiman is really a great guy, very sweet -- hang around, You will see.

Sorry. I normally "edit for content" before I hit "send" but I was a little distracted this evening. As i commented elsewhere, I don't seem to possess my full faculties right at the moment. Please forgive my abrupt language, I did not intend to be so brusque.

Welcome to the messageboards, DiamondDiva!

I'm caucasian, an engineering undergraduate dergee and an MBA in computer systems. I'm male. Technically I'm a sub, but I what I really like is pleasing women, whatever it takes. So, for example, if servicing a sub orally pleased her, I'd switch in a nanosecond.

I usually have a big smile on my face. I recently retired. Its so much better than working for a living!

I'm a caucasian...lesbian...some college and presently back there again at my age...yikes...lol
I identify as a switch, though my relationship with my Domme is not one that is steeped in the traditional D/s protocol. We're more S/m, with alot of mutual respect thrown in. I never hesitated to call her Ma'am even when I had subs of my own. And, she in turn, treats me pretty equally. She's not a Domme that needs to hear ma'am every other word, and has always told me she doesn't want a doormat....*g*

Be well,
Irshwlf

Lessee... I'm Caucasion, sort of, and have a degree in writing with some grad work in (no groans now) Peace and Justice. I hate labels! I'm a Domme who has subbed on a couple of occasions, once for six months... which isn't much compared to 35 years of being dominant. I've pretty much always been a sadist. I don't usually claim to be a Lesbian, although I mostly am. Right now I'm looking for a male sub, so perhaps you can see why I hate labels...

Haven't I got 26 posts in YET??

Welcome to the boards DiamondDiva!

I'm Cuban-American....reason I don't just say "hispanic", supposing you'd care to know lol..."hispanics" all have very different cultures and to just throw us all into one big lump is, imho, absurd....yes, i'm anal about that sort of thing, I know! lol....besides I was born and raised in the USA and this is certainly my country, of course, my family is from Cuba and that forms part of my culture and who I am as well...

I'm submissive by nature and in the lifestyle, I have never felt the desire to switch, I'm very happy to be a bottom, and the view is just so much better! grins

My education, I'm in the process, yes at 30! of going back to school and finishing college....I have a very good secure job but still don't know exactly what I want to be when I grow up...can ya believe that?

Sexual orientation, i'm straight, a lil bi-curious tho...but haven't explored that ....yet! *grins
