Seems like women and men who identify themselves as this should have there own search profile.

I believe they already do. Their own websites.

I just pick the one closest to what I feel works best for me and call it good. If they want to know more they can read the damned profile or.......omg......send me a note and ask me for clarification.

I don't expect the, already over worked and under paid, staff of the site to customize this shit just for me.

As for it being it's own title or search the problem would be that there are so many different names for things that then everyone might want their own title. Example, little, gurl, boi, and so on.

ETA- And if by chance the site owners decide to start "humoring" folks about wanting different titles I want one that says DommeMommy

Status: offline 		well it seems to me that if we have things like soap making, knitting, and you can choose to tell the world how much you love 80's music it would be a good idea to at minimum add this to the interests section. it is separate and and distinct from slavery or being a sub however it very much has to do with submission and dominance. I see a lot of profiles that link to taken in hand articles it seems that we should keep current as a community and add this developing sub set. i mean i bet living a taken in hand relationship is more popular then living an Edwardian lifestyle.

For crying out loud..........there is NOTHING that is stopping you from putting it at the very BEGINNING of your profile and voila' problem solved.

The person in question could also add a web link or two that gives examples of what it means. That would help to make sure that they understand what is wanted.

It can be a clue to humor, though, when you have things like HARD LIMIT: crocheting.

Okay, now you've brought back a memory and I have to admit I apparently lied. I do remember seeing someone having bird watching as a hard limit and laughing.

Status: offline 		This kind of reminds Me of the "suggestion" box over on the other site where folks expect the site to be tailor made to each and every whim that they personally have and instead of them just doing the easiest thing (typing it in on their profile) they want another box to check. 

As far as the "keeping up with the community" jive, I'll buy that one when there's a "leather" option (rather than Old Guard) available.  In My opinion, the leather community has done far more to help expand the world of BDSM than the drops in the bucket than the Taken In Hand crowd has done.

We must have seen the same person, LaT, I remember the birdwatching one and laughing.

I agree LadyP, I am surprised that Leather isn't there to be honest!
