LadyPact -> RE: Can a Master be satisfied with a submissive? (11/5/2012 10:11:35 AM)

Considering that I've kind of been there, here are My two cents. The concept of can a Master accept someone who is a submissive and not a slave, understanding that they will not have as much power/control over that person, and won't have as much authority in the dynamic if they believe M/s is stricter than D/s is possible. I'd say that really boils down to how important that person would be in the M's life and if the M is willing to accept those circumstances. The questions the M should be asking is, basically, is it worth it and is the level of submission now compatible with the dynamic. I happen to be an over time, rather than over night person. However, something about the original post gives Me the vibe that, personally, the level of submission wouldn't be enough for Me. It's all about coaxing, pleading, and persuading for the submission to happen and that's not My style. I also don't have any compatibility for willful and bratty. Others have personalities that will be happy with that. I'm just not one of them and I do happen to be a strict "obey" type. When I want obedience and all I'm getting is constant challenges, I'm not going to be happy. The reason I'm saying this is because, if you aren't close enough to middle ground, or wherever the two of you can be in the same field, at minimum one of you isn't going to be satisfied with the arrangement and the awesome sex isn't going to be worth the resentment. This next part is just for conversations sake. quote:

ORIGINAL: MissokystDamn... how tacky. He tells you intimate details of what he did with prior partners? First, notice that they are not in his life now, for what ever reason. Perhaps it was those things had something to do with it? Second, you DO know that when he finds the next partner tales of your sex life will be open for discussion, right? Hi Missokyst. I think you may have jumped the gun there. "What he got up to" could be stuff like cuttings (you know how some folks are about permanent marks) or watersports or whatever else. Something like a cutting could make somebody very scared if they don't like sharps or blood. At the same time, him telling her about his past scenes at least gives her the idea of what kind of experience that he has in it. Let's face it. If I had a scalpel in My hand, I would hope that the bottom I was about to slice open would want to know if I've done it before. quote:
ORIGINAL: orgasmdenial12 Part of the problem is that when it comes to these forbidden tasks, I want him to encourage, persuade and coax me - I want him to train me and make it doable for me - whereas he wants brute obedience, obeying just for the sake of it. quote:
ORIGINAL: Missokyst It sounds like you two have a difference in style, has nothing to do with him being a "master" and you being submissive. As for forbidden tasks, it is hard for me to imagine what those might be. But, in my view limits are things I have for my partner. I, myself have few hard limits but I have a TON of limits for men I am playing with until I know that going down those roads are unlikely to damage us if things went awry. Limits disappear as I determine how much I can trust him. It is not so much being coaxed into things as it is relaxing my gaurd. This was actually quite good. I happen to think this is a very smart way of going about things. I honestly believe that bottoms/s-types should be more guarded in the beginning and maybe keep some things on the limit list until they DO get to that place of trust. I would have to think that the comfort level of the participants is better after two years than it would be for two months. For some people, some limits can change depending on what has been built in the dynamic itself.
