Certainly, any physical or emotional issues that impact on your play or service should be discussed prior to starting to play /serve. Like if you have a heart condition or back trouble, for example. An emotional difficulty is just as real and important to address with any prospective dom/me as anything else. It doesn't make you less of a sub or slave because you're physically or emotionally unable to do something. But you do need to discuss it as an issue.

quote: ORIGINAL: Awareness That's a maturity issue. Change is not only positive, it's inevitable. Well no, it's not when change is forced upon you and nor is change always positive. Not saying that's the case with the OP's circumstances because I wouldn't know; just that your interpretation of "change" is waaaay too generalised and just plain wrong. 'Cept maybe for the 'inevitable' part.... Focus.

quote: I find having a safe-word and it being respected when I use it very empowering. quote: buuuuuuuut you lost me there lol. I see your point, but I don't know that 'empowering' is a positive verb to describe an action towards a sub, and under most circumstances safe words are a casual-play only thing for me. If a slave can say a word and have me stop what I'm doing, who is ultimately in control? In her case, though, I think a safe word would be a good idea, so we're probably more or less on the same page there. In this case I was thinking of a specific incident in which the man was abusive. I went through a whole gamut of emotions afterwards - - Initially, I felt like a rape victim. - Next, I was angry at myself for getting into the situation in the first place and then not calling Stop earlier. - I had a few revenge fantasies. - Eventually, I focused on the point where I said stop and he STOPPED - which is not the case during child abuse or rape - and felt empowered. I didn't actually use a safe word in this case - I said, "I need to stop." But subsequently, during the rare occasions where I safe word, this reaffirms that what we are doing is consensual, which from time to time is important to me. (Most of the time I like the illusion of non-consent.)

quote: ORIGINAL: MagiksSlave If you don't want me at my worst then you don't deserve me at my best. Now that's a great quote. I nominate it for the Sunny QOTD. OP, stick to your guns. There ARE men who say 'meh' to oral...my partner is one of them (and not just because he's submissive.) He really would prefer not to receive this. On the other hand, loves to give it (which is ironic because I also say 'meh' to receiving oral though enjoy giving it to someone I care about.) Another thought: so much of what people are/aren't willing to do with each other depends on the connection made by the people themselves. So if you meet and get to know someone who really floats your boat in every other way, who's to say sometime down the road you may wake up one morning and think, "Ya know, I'm OK with this today. Wake up my liege lord, there's been a change of plans." Or not. Either way, if it's OK for you, it's OK as it ever needs to be. Let the pressure off yourself and spend your energy on what you enjoy both in the lifestyle and out of it.

RexDarcy -> RE: Not a sucker (9/12/2011 8:13:20 PM)
Magick, if performing oral is a hard limit of yours, thats just the way it is. Don't change unless its something you want to do. If you want to work past your thing with oral, an understanding Dom will, or at least should be willing to work with you on that.

Perfect subs are boring. All perfect people are.

quote: ORIGINAL: MagiksSlave quote: ORIGINAL: LanceHughes Thanks for being brave enough to give us enough info to figure it out. I have a parallel. When I'm about to spank (or flog) an ass, I always inquire as to whether that's okay. I'll say "Sometimes people have had a bad experience getting hit on the ass. How about you?" If they stiffen -regardless of their answer, we might talk, or I might not flog their ass, or something appropriate. I keep in mind "I'm your top, not your psych." That all said, I hate, absolutely HATE to suggest this: Have you thought about psychiatric help? Was there any at the time or have you borne this horror by yourself for so long? I don't need the answer - just want you to think that through. I'm getting the feeling that you would like to accomodate your gentlemen friends, but since you can't, you are unhappy about your reaction to them and YOURSELF. And that is where a psych can help - make you less unhappy about the situation. Maybe even alleviate your suffering. I do not know, but I can tell you this: you sound unhappy with the current situation. I am unhappy that people wont accept me as I am. I am unhappy that I feel the need to change. I do see a therapist and I see nothing wrong with you suggesting it, it is a sound idea. I think anybody with any hint of maturity in their being would be able to get over the temporary disappointment of not having oral sex performed on them and be fine with the many other acts that could be presented. You have an issue that really isn't crippling to the point of needing to see professional help. If your relationship is in jeopardy due to that then you have a lot of others problems to be concerned about with your partner.

quote: ORIGINAL: MagiksSlave I was actually diagnosed with TMJ last year (sevear facial pain, neck aches sore upper jaw, reduced mobility and clicking, all do to stress and subsaquent clenching of my teeth.) This isn't the reason I feel unable to give a bj, I never really thought about and if it would make me unable as it wasn't anything I was able to do to begin with but now that you say it... just fuck... even if I was able to work on the emotional reason behind it, I may not actually physically be able to do it X_x lets just throw another wrench in the system why don't we? I think this "clenching of teeth" would accelerate my compassion and understanding at quite a rate of knots.... We'd certainly have great syncrosity in the stress department. [8\|] Focus.

They're the same. Growth, progression, constant striving to be more than we are.

When you're bringing less to the table because of past issues, that's baggage. Dealing with your baggage is your responsibility. If you have no commitment to dealing with that and expect a dude to be cool with that, then you're aiming for a guy without standards. It's not like you're the plump girl in school the guy's hooking up with because he thinks he can turn you into a supermodel. Oral is a pretty fundamental part of sex. I wouldn't bother with a sub that said "no oral, but maybe one day in the future" - fuck that. That's gameplaying around one of the fundamentals of a sexual interaction. It's your past, your issues, you should already have the commitment in place to deal with it - none of this crap around "see what happens". quote: I never said I want to stagnate, in fact if you knew me you would know stagnation is one of my biggest fears.

I disagree, why are my hard limits any less valid than someone elses just because mine are routed in past abuse? Someone here said it and they were right, a hard limit is a hard limit period end of story. This is part of an issue I have been working on getting over my entire adult life but sometimes you have to see that some things are too painful emotionaly to simply solve. That doesnt mean you dont continue to work on them and it also doesnt mean that even if you continue to work on them that you will succeed in fixing it all.

Completely disagree with you. She's said multiple times that she's trying to work on her issues and remember, she does go to therapy to deal with this. There isn't much more she can do except to keep working away at it and it seems that she is. Yes, sometimes people can use the concept of having issues as a protective shell around themselves so they never actually work on the problems - I really don't think that's the case here.

quote: ORIGINAL: MagiksSlave Is it a must? Is the girl less subly if she won’t suck you? What if the hard limit is there for a good reason? Do you work on it with her or do you let it be? If you take the girl on in hopes of being able to work with her enough to be able to but it turns out she may never be able to do you stay with her or do you leave? I am wondering if this is a strange limit for someone who identifies as sub/bottom whatever, to have? Have any of you ever delt with a sub that wouldn't? Replace your oral with anal. Began as a big fear, still causes me to youch, cry and snot-snivvle-gulp but it was never allowed as a limit, hard or otherwise. What matters to M is that I don't withold anything and that means the things I don't want to do..... .for WHATEVER reason. He's not that focussed on his cock that he'd wither without a bj or even anal but he certainly wouldn't have this relationship with me if I limited him by my own hand.He will not be limited by me. In answer to your question, no it's not at all strange, it's just a thing. Plenty of people have a thing. It doesn't actually matter one fuck whether it's subly/bottomly. The only thing that matters is whether the person in your sights has a bother with it. agirl

Isn't the mind-body connection fascinating? Perhaps you would find Caroline Myss's "Why People Don't Heal and How They Can" helpful. I didn't relate so much in the first section but found it very interesting, and the second section quite helpful.
