All the time you hear dopey dommes comparing themselves to people that actually have a profession.

You hear it all the time.

They act as if their talents compare to those of a plumber, laborer, trades person and all sorts of other extremely skilled professions.

Just because you can do something doesn't mean that you should.

It would be interesting to find out the education level of the average pro domme.

Me thinks it is very marginal.

You aren't wearing a burka because you can't afford one? That's terrible. Perhaps the op would be willing to donate $9.95 a minute to your Decent Clothing Fund.

I did get some lovely things from clip's last trip to the desert.  Not particularly My style, but very pretty.

I agree completely, dommes seem to be incredibly pompous online.




RedMagic1 -> RE: Are money dommes like beggars? (5/26/2011 5:33:06 PM)

Domiguy, I think your statement breaks along racial/economyic lines. The "average" education status of a white or Asian prodomme is "working on a masters degree in an arts or humanities field." A lot of ex prodommes have advanced nonscientific degrees. Black prodommes tend on average to have less education. So, basically, much like education disparity in greater society.

This is my sense from conversations with friends of friends. So it is what I've run into, which may not represent the pool overall.




PhilSlave -> RE: Are money dommes like beggars? (5/26/2011 5:36:04 PM)

Arts degrees pfft.

Prostitutes provide a service, money dommes are merely leeches or beggars.


Let me refer you to what I said before:

quote:



I've chatted to a couple of the more eloquent and legit-sounding ones - one guy who got women to send him pictures of the pedicures he paid for, and another who was looking for (and found) a whole range of service-type roles, of which financial service was only one - and I've got to say they both seemed pretty fulfilled by the contact they were getting with the findommes in their lives.

Maybe not providing a service, but certainly fulfilling a desire. It's not all lonely men crying as they wank.

And Domi, most of the findommes I follow/used to follow on twitter are at university, making a bit of cash on the side. And they were all pretty eloquent - certainly not thick.




RedMagic1 -> RE: Are money dommes like beggars? (5/26/2011 5:38:35 PM)

Comparative literature, art history, sexual psychology, history. Masters and doctorates. Not everyone of course, but it is a large enough subset that I think there is something going on there.

Eta: yes VC I agree, findommes tend to be younger, about the age of starting phone sex operators. I think a lot of women move from one to the other.




VaguelyCurious -> RE: Are money dommes like beggars? (5/26/2011 5:53:26 PM)

Laaaaaaaame.

I miss her. And Fejjjjjjjjj. Fejjj had a beautiful soul.

Most pro doms I know do have a vanilla profession, though some are savvy enough to run a dungeon full time. Entrepreneurship takes a lot of time, hard work and guts.

An ethical and responsible professional dominant had better have an extensive skill set and tools of the trade, or they're no more than a hooker in costume. Not to say you can't find the latter, but they're not who we're talking about here.

Depends on whether you're talking about hookers with whips, or serious business minded women in the profession. In the former case, probably low. In the latter case, there were several PhD's and master's degrees in the one I used to manage in Berkeley, and the majority of the rest were in college or had completed at least a bachelor's degree. We actually had more femdoms with postgrad degrees (or working on them) on premises than ladies who had not gone to college at all.

did posts disappear for no reason?




LadyHibiscus -> RE: Are money dommes like beggars? (5/26/2011 6:31:13 PM)

Well probably not for NO reason, Domi...

Srsly now, is all of off topic whiner threads?

I've been giving some of the profiles on here some thought and it seems to me that financial dommes are little more than beggars. What do others think?

Just curious - what do you call men who write random femdom profiles begging to be money slaves?

I don't actually get much of that now on my professional profile,  but on my social friends-only profile, I was virtually inundated with guys asking if I would be their financial domme and treat them like pay piggies.  Uh....what exactly was it about a "gamer geek in the lifestyle looking for pervy gamer buddies and friends only" that attracted these guys? Fuck if I know, but they were swarming me like mosquitoes.

I'm not into findomme as a kink, or as a business either.  I'm not the one pursuing men to give me their money for nothing.  I really don't want to do this.  Yet I have been pursued by men who actively seek this kink.  I'm not so sure who you could really define as the beggar here, the men who ardently bother women to do this for them, or the women who are willing to (thank goodness) cater to their kinks so there are less of these desperate fellows to bother those of us who have zero interest in this fetish?

they are obviously mentally ill!

I don't usually feed the trolls, well ok, yes I do, but in this case I'm just incensed.  You've referred to people who might have borderline personality disorder and mental illness.

Well, lemmetellya something, I suffer from clinical depression, borderline personality disorder and myriad and assorted other disorders.  I am quite capable of making sound decisions, I don't hand my money over, I know when I'm being taken advantage of and I no longer allow this to happen.  I've been told I'm too nice for my own good and that's quite true, I recognize that.  But no more, I'm looking after #1 now, and that's me.  No one else is going to do so, I've reached the age of 48 fairly well TYVM.  And I'll continue all by my lonesome until the right someone comes along and is willing to see the goodness in me and recognize that I have an illness that's managed. 

So quit referring to men who do this as mentally ill or in whatever derogatory term.  I call bullshit.  If they sign away their paycheck, become homeless because they've given all their money away, they did so knowing if the rent and the bills weren't payed they'd end up on the street.  That's not a hard thing to figure out.  And if they do have a mental illness, then someone should be looking out for them, worrying about them, and making sure this doesn't happen.  If they've isolated themselves, again, done on their own.

'Nuff said.

I've been lurking as a guest, but decided I had something to say about this. I'm not a money Domme, I don't mention it anywhere in my profile. In fact I'd never even heard of it before I joined Collarme.com. And I don't have submissive men listed as an interest.

But I get messages from them begging me to let them send me money all the time, at least every 3rd day. If there's that number of men writing me (a lez) wanting to be my personal ATM, there's a need for it for sure.

No I pulled them and you were sent a message to the email address that you have listed on the forums side. If you did not receive you might want to update your profile, if you are truly confused as to why it was pulled, and the corresponding ones that were pulled referring to it. If you still have questions, you may cmail me privately. I assume you would not want it publicly announced, so cmail me if you are TRULY confused.




LadyPact -> RE: Are money dommes like beggars? (5/26/2011 7:10:23 PM)

Dagnabbit!  Do I have to look at My mail again????




VideoAdminAlpha -> RE: Are money dommes like beggars? (5/26/2011 7:16:38 PM)

No babe, that was directed at domi, he was the one confused as to why his post was pulled.




LadyPact -> RE: Are money dommes like beggars? (5/26/2011 7:20:31 PM)

Usually My thing.  Can't say I'm always thrilled when My posts are pulled.  All of the time spent typing and all of that.  I'm sure you understand.

domiguy -> RE: Are money dommes like beggars? (5/26/2011 10:47:23 PM)

No one connects their profile to a significant email. At least I don't. I never check my email address attached to this profile.

My God, what if I missed the chance to purchase some viagra?

If it is important I just figure that I will be contacted the way that anyone else would contact me who is on this site...Through the CM messages.

To change policy now makes little sense.
