by Midori: (essay: Why SM? book: Wild Side Sex)


I just read these words by fetish writer Midori, and I feel as though I have found an excellent mantra. I think this is something we experienced players might do well to remember when we fall into those habitual patterns of playing.

I wanted to share them.

Now that you bring it up, I'm curious as to how this quote makes you feel as an owned slave; someone who in theory can't apply this principle. But, that's a private question, and I'll understand if you don't wish to answer.

Well like I said, the quote really reminds me of Masters perspective and I love his style of domination. It's his way or no way. So hearing something like that reminds me of my submissiveness and my slavery, it reminds me that I'm there to serve and please him not the other way around. It reminds me that my pleasure is found when he uses me on his terms, not my own. If I have to wait to have my masochism satiated, then I wait (however frustrating). It reminds me that Master isn't obligated to satiate me in any way frm my own desirous expectations. It's in his time, not my own. It reminds me that thats the type of relationship I have agreed to live in...it reminds me of how much I enjoy that.

I'm enjoying her book: Wild Side Sex: The Book Of  Kink, very much. A dom friend bought it for me, and I can see that I will treasure it a long time.

Lovely words, Jali. That's the type of grace I hope I can find when the time comes.
