My overall assessment was that we all failed to translate goreanese into real english -- myself included. I have no idea what he was trying to accomplish or say with that post.


As a "native" speaker of "goreanese", I would point out that I have no idea, either.

So, not so much a translation issue as a PEBMAC issue.

I'm going to guess probably not. I think the concept of "training" kind of flies in the face of "strong and sane dominant."

Heh, some of my recent revelations have made me understand that I have trained Carol... I just didn't get it that that was called "training".

But that then gets me back to the OP's question. Isn't the obvious answer, "Sure, people who like to train people would do that."

*chuckles* Well that's reassuring. I had actually thought my translations on that were pretty good. And thanks for taking that in the spirit in which it was intended. For the record, I've known a few goreans both online and in real life that I respect a great deal. My mirth was more at the post specifically than "gor" in general. I still say things like "BDSM-land" too :) Perhaps when I grow up I'll say "the lifestyle".

I find that creative and intelligent and sane men like relationships, but there should be no shortage of Desktop Doms seeking to "train" you for NSA sex.


Some of us already have relationships, and would like to have someone around with which we do not have one. At least not a romantic one. We're fine with caring on par with a pet or the like, but we're not looking to bring anyone else into an established, mature relationship with a lot of history as an equal partner. For one thing, it would be dishonest, as there is no equality between someone you just met and someone you've spent over a decade with. Also, it would only stand a chance of working if the new addition developed a mutual attachment with Ars.

There's room for different people in different roles in our lives, and I fail to see how that is somehow comparable to 'desktop domming', or how it is appropriate to imply that it is. The intention for something to be temporary is no less valid, and no more binding, than the intention for it to be permanent. Regardless of initial intent, we all discover along the way whether or not we are happy, and make our choices based on that.

...



Good point, I hadn't considered a second at the time I wrote that. I was a bit boggled because when I was looking for relationships the vast majority of emails I received were from men such as the OP seeks so I couldn't imagine a shortage.

No worries on my part. And, also for the record, I'm aware that there was an unmistakable aroma to it. Some brainfarts smell like rotten eggs. Some smell like rotten tarn eggs. Your nose was spot on.

LadyPact,
Can I ask you a direct question then? What do you "get out" of training others if you aren't "owning" them in the end. That seems to be the only scenario people see as at all rewarding, which I disagree.

thanks.

Hi Katie, I PM'd you with a proposal, should be in your, uh, inbox.

If you don't mind I'll offer my take on the above question.

I can't speak for everyone, but I personally have a bit of a Svengali complex, I love creativity and the act of creation - we are trained for so many things in life, from potty training to cleaning up our rooms, to going school in order to be trained in more and increasingly complex skills, both w/respect to both cognitive and performance, from language and mathematical skills to team and individual athletics.

But when it comes to sex, we're supposed to figure it all out ourselves, and for the most part, we're trained to avoid thinking about it (or doing it) too much, the orthodox model is exceedingly simple: boy meets girl, they fall in love, babies are made, the end.

The realities are a bit more complex, and sexual training could involve numerous aspects of sexuality, from learning the basic physical skills, which do often requires some adjustment - deep throating without gagging, taking a sudden cock up the ass, etc., there are physical skills both passive and active -doesn't take much to spread your legs or open your mouth, but you can milk a cock in such a way that as to enhance and sustain the male erection.

And, it not just sex, there is allure, "the bait", i.e., some women know how to "work it" in more ways than one - they are students of Cock, they're entire being devoted to eliciting it's essence - a useful skill whether you wan to be a dancer, thousand a night hooker, marry a millionaire, or just keep your lover satisfied, while satisfying yourself - i.e., if you're going to do it anyway, then why not be good at it?

Instinct can only take you so far here, and that is not to mention the most athletic feat of endurance that any woman is required to perform: giving birth, an act beside which pretty much every other physical and mental feat performed by anyone, anywhere, pales in comparison, look at the global statistics for death in childbirth, it's horrendous.

So there are least 3 major areas in which sexual training of a woman can enhance her life, and the lives of those with whom she shares it, and most likely even teach them a thing or Two, and I suspect much the same is true of women training men, they do that too, trust me.

BDSM is training, it's training to be in a particular relationship with a particular person, and make it work, and it's all about roles: in this case the role of lover, but women play a lot of roles, lover is an important aspect and all sexual roles are linked, from companion, to lover to, incubator of new life, to engine of birth, to mother, and round and round again - they're all distinct roles, requiring specific skills - life is process, cycles within cycles.

There are large numbers of women who can't even orgasm, men who can't sustain an erection of give a woman an orgasm, lot's of miserable fucking people who either can't control themselves, or have too much control to enjoy themselves, or who simply do not grasp the basic techniques that bring sexual satisfaction to both partners.

Anyway, the sort of training you're talking about here is similar to mentoring: most will tell you the Dom can only train you to please them, that Dom, and to a large extent, that's true, but just like learning to solve one mathematical problem makes it easier to solve the next, so too proper training can enhance not just that experience, but all your experiences to come.

As for me, there's that Svengali complex, for me, it's like creating a work of art, and then unleashing it on the world, and there is a great deal of satisfaction in that - and that is the role of the mentor, to create thing out of love that they must then set free, and not everybody can do that, "training", for the most part is pretty ad hoc.

More condensed, a lot of Jung, with some odd Freud, in a Gestalt framework, with a Cirque du Soleil aesthetic.

I do prefer to think of it more like a combination of martial arts and dance, a marriage of the practical and the beautiful, and I suppose, in that sense, there is nothing wrong with learning under a succession of masters, each of which has a little something different to impart to you, and each of whom learns something from you - to teach is to learn, after all.

Allright, you caught me, it's all an excuse to find a chick who can do this: http://chinese-acrobatics.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/acrobatics-jujitsu.jpg

Seriously though, sex is mostly about mental acrobatics, train the mind and the ass will follow.

You could be trained in the basics. You could be trained to take a beating, you can be trained in badic positions and protocol, you could be trained in a number of things. Most of that will go right out the window when you find a Dominant that will want to train you in his/her own way and needs, but at least you will have basic concepts down and it will make future training easier.

Is this even possible?


What does a Master say?

Yes. You make such a thing possible in your desire to be the best in this role you will attract that "Dominant Master" who simply needs service without an emotional relationship.

Be careful of your emotions after you start down this path. Accept his punishment should you cross the line.

Really? I used to think that. But upon further reflection, by what right do I make assertions about what would be "a crock" to the person seeking it? Perhaps "training", to the OP, simply means "a hot, sexy sexual relationship with no strings but with a whole "Story of O" flavor?"

I suppose it would be possible to find a kinky version of a personal trainer, but you should proceed very carefully if you want to avoid users who are going to look at you as a cheap and easy source for a blow job.

Well, as I said the last time we discussed training, it implies a teacher/student relationship, but it's also a form of fantasy in itself, and its very much a D/S/ relationship: to be a master is to adopt the role of teacher, to be a submissive is to adopt the role of student - and it works, regardless of whether you teach or learn anything useful other than to keep yourself, or each other, entertained.

i.e., the OP clearly likes sucking cock, understandable, I'm a big fan of cunnilingus myself (although without the submissive connotations, I just like pussy!), so if you have no problem begin a cheap and easy source of blowjobs, it all works out.

Although she's not talking about giving blowjobs in the alley behind the dumpster to all comers, which means it's not necessarily cheap or easy, she has a fantasy and a Dom has to be able to put in that frame of mind, in that subspace, and I think that holds true for D/S in general: i.e., a submissive has needs, in fact they have fairly a substantial psychological need to be in that submissive headspace, and somebody to put them into it and possibly keep the there - not every guy can do that or there wouldn't be the small but steady contingent of married women looking for D/S outside their primary relationship.

In short, "Mastery" implies a teacher role, but it's a role that itself is based on the concept of mastery of some particular skill, and putting someone into that space is a skill - so again, not cheap or easy, yo gotta have mad skeeeels to collar this lovely lady, and you can teach her to suck that dick to perfection (practice makes perfect), at which time she graduates and goes on to learn the same thing from a new master.

And yes, that's a fantasy as well, there are "sub circuits", so to speak, subs are sometimes traded around, even auctioned, which is a slave fantasy for some subs, although certainly open needs to take care here, as that particular fantasy could be construed and prosecuted as human trafficking, but as a fantasy, it can actually increase your safety, i.e., a Dom who cares about you isn't going to give you away to some careless asshole, or somebody who's a vector for diseases, an abuser, etc., i.e., they'll do some or all of the vetting for you and make sure you'll be mistreated properly, and the sub gets "stranger sex", which is a big turn on itself, without the attendant risks of giving blowjobs in the alley behind the dumpster to unknown quantities and potential vectors.

i.e., it's a perfectly reasonable way to date around and keep things exciting, while protecting yourself, it's technically a form or social networking.

I don't know if that addresses the OP's question or not, but, yeah, in a way it's like having a series of patrons, and I can see where that might work out all around, depending on the people involved.

It depends entirely upon your mindset with regard to D/s.

If you're essentially a masochist looking for a sadist and play is essentially what you seek, then 'training' as an experience is something you could probably undergo.

If, however, you're primarily seeking a D/s engagement on a one on one interpersonal basis, then training is antithetical to this. Subs serve because they're dominated by the will of another and desire to please, not because they're previously trained to do so.

Training is something of a misnomer. When a Dominant 'trains' a sub, what he's doing is setting in place further psychological reinforcements to further establish the primacy of his will. Along the way, he'll also set expectations and set boundaries so the sub becomes familiar with his preferences and desires.

The exception to all this is if a 'trainer' specifically breaks down the will of the sub to make her useful to anyone. While I realise some do this, it strikes me as both dehumanising and lazy. Dehumanising because the sub no longer has full self-determination and is thus more vulnerable to being picked up by any pseudo-dominant who wanders by. And lazy, because establishing control mechanisms in a sub is something the dominant should be doing for himself. Further to this, taking a sub whose will has been broken by another is like a jackal eating the prey of a lion. Weak and thus, not dominant.

For me, every interaction is an interpersonal one. I don't see any value in expending time on a sub unless there's a return - and that return is usually sexual at the very least.

May I suggest you start by doing some research in the web...start by checking out Jay Wiseman...His writings are a real inside...it this life caution is a virtue ...if you meet someone here or in R/T take your time listen and remember this life is NOT about the sex..its about Trust and respect.
