They do if they want to.

Protecte from what, exercising your own common sense? You might need to protect yourself allright, from him. He doesn't need to collar anyone to be a mentor. Question, has he discussed needing to "mentor" your wife alone without you there?

My thoughts exactly. Methinks your "mentor" is an eel in dom's clothing, tx.

Get active in your local community. (It can't be said enough)

Leather does have magical properties if studded in the right configuration.

Ok... the mental picture i'm getting right now ... is a funny one.. so NOT to offend anyone.. i'll just say... think about it.. and then find someone else if you still need a mentor.... good luck to you and yours there...

Old-time training in some groups started with the dominant-to-be taking a collar to a mentor, and he or she was treated -exactly- as a slave. Over time, s/he learned things, and developed, and eventually "earned hir leathers". This is how the man who brought me into this way of life was trained, and it was how he trained me. However, the woman who was his companion (and is now my mate) was not managed this way -- he worked with her as a more "modern" mentorship. He seemed to sense that she wouldn't thrive the other way.

I respect his sense. I hope that I am as sensitive to the proper instructional fit for the people that I work with. It is one gift that I can give him, now that he is dead -- to take what he taught me, and use it wisely.

If you are truly uncomfortable with the idea of taking this man's collar, don't do it, but if you feel comfortable learning from the bottom up, there is a long and successful history of this for Masters in the lifestyle.

This is as stupid and narrow-minded of a comment as I have seen on these forums.

A collar is just a piece of leather you put on a dog or cat... or some other pet. Or it could be just a fashion statement with no signifcant sybolism attached to it. Or It may have some sort of meaning or symbolism attached to it for the person wearing it. Or it maybe some intangible concept that reflects a convenant between to people.

Oh yeah... I noticed that your Old Guard for the past 20 years. Well I happen to know more that a few Dominant Leathermen... that happen to put on a collar from time to time.... I think they could take you!!

OK I have to ask how someone has 20 years experience and doesn't know that mentors don't usually collar their dom trainees? Is this one of those crackerjack titles again? Maybe mailorder training?

I think the internet and the evolving times have kind of put to rest the needs for a single "Mentor" per se. Now there is so much information to read....classes , seminars , events to attend , for anything from throwing a whip....to fire play...to after care...to just being the best ( Fill in the blank ) you can be.

That being said....i see no reasons for a Mentor to expect to collar his Dominant protege, go with what feels right for you tx061

good luck
