quote: ORIGINAL: CalentraDomme To each their own, but I don't like being hounded after I have told the sub that I am not a fin Domme, in respect to him giving Me money as if every woman has her price. So it looks like a couple people are under the impression that you're receiving money from strangers on the internet as you've used the word giving here instead of offering. Would you clarify? Did you actually just mean that he was offering you money or were you taking money from this guy?

BecomingV -> RE: Dommes and money (8/13/2014 4:35:01 PM)
thompsonx - What if the Domme "does it like a Dom"? Instead of "asking," she dictates: "I'll be in charge of your money." Does asking versus commanding make it different? Should submissives be asking male Dominants if they will be requiring financial gain through controlling their money? Are the male Doms being asked if they charge or if they take a continuous TRIBUTE, called the submissive's paycheck? My point is that some Dominants wish to profit by the use and control of expanded funds - the funds of the submissive. If when women take the money, they're whores; then when the men take the money, they're whores. Calling it, "taking charge" when it's a guy and calling it, "charging" when it's a woman, is just sexist propaganda with no roots in rationale, logic or reality. Some Doms & Dommes profit financially off the backs of their submissives and other Doms & Dommes, choose NOT to profit. It's not a male or female thing... it's a FinDom and FinDomme thing.

CreativeDominant -> RE: Dommes and money (8/13/2014 8:06:08 PM)
Just to add into the discussion mix: One big difference though is that...in the majority of cases...male finDominants are going to be having sex and engaging in kinky play with their submissive with or without the money. From what I've seen and read on these boards...in many cases...the male submissive is NOT getting sex or kinky play with their finDomme without the money. And if that is true, then on one hand, the female submissive is getting...what...for her money? Her bills paid? A better car...or an education...or a better house to live in? Plus sex and kinky play and control (though these come with or without the money). Of course, if they split...she may not see a dime of what was turned over. On the other hand, the male submissive is getting...what...for his money? Sex? Kinky play that may involve some of his wants? (he's certainly not getting it without the money). His bills paid? A better car or an education? Things she needs or wants? Of course, if they split...he may not see a dime of what he turned over. If the above is true...and sex and kinky play ARE tied into the money, then the dominant is being paid in part...no matter how miniscule the dominant/submissive try to make it...for their "favors". Does that not make them a sex worker? [:o]Digs out my old battle-worn umbrella[>:]

Are we simply going by what you feel the definition of a fin Domme is or are we going to go by an actual definition? Bc that would help a lot of this.

Now I admit they never called themselves findoms but they did come up with excuse after excuse on why they couldn't go out and get jobs. Interestingly enough, their relationships didn't last very long. There are relationship dynamics that fit every mold. Some submissive men would prefer to work hard at their job and have a 'goddess' to take care of - and hey, if they can afford it, who is to judge? I've lived what some subs crave - I own a business and work full time and for more than half of my relationship with my boytoy/husband, he stayed at home and did everything domestic and was essentially at my beck and call. Trust me, it was a full time job. I have been into a grocery store maybe 3 times in 10 years. He would even go out and navigate MAC and Sephora to get me makeup. He would buy me clothes, bring them home, then return the ones I did not like. He was also my professional assistant, my driver, and there at the snap of my fingers. He baked fresh bread several times a week and made amazing meals. All I had to do is work. I loved my career (most of the time) so it was perfect and I made enough to support us both because we didn't live an extravagant lifestyle. About three years ago I lost an anchor client and at the same time he had an amazing job opportunity he wanted to pursue. It was a huge adjustment. Financially it sealed the gap, but not having him around all the time was hard for me. Plus, he works long days too, so coming home I have to be realistic he isn't in peak shape to just roll over and be my minion. He also has a very demanding exercise schedule that he used to fit in wherever he wanted, now he has to do it after work, so he gets home late a a few days a week. Result? No home cooked meals unless they are late or he's able to whip something up fast. Do I prefer this? Well, no. But now that my business rebounded and I replaced the client, and he's working full time, we have a lot of extra income we're aggressively saving. We have talked about him leaving his fulltime job and coming back to "stay at home" partner, and maybe that will happen, but for now, it's very prudent to just save the money. Plus he enjoys his job for the most part. But the dynamic is VERY different and took a LOT of adjusting too. We locked horns a lot when he would get home and I wanted to snap my fingers and demand him into service because I had a shitty day. Truth be told, he had shitty days too. He wants to serve me and please me above ANYTHING, but that does not mean he doesn't have bad days. A solid foundation and good communication solves most of these issues. We found good middle ground. I own the weekends. Period. Akasha

Sissy3itch1388 -> RE: Dommes and money (8/14/2014 10:35:41 AM)
I can understand a lot subs frustration over the whole financial domination thing. I myself have been into this lifestyle for most of my adult life and sadly (despite my good looks) have had no real experience. I have tried multiple sites like ALT.com, BDSM.com, strap-on singles.com, and its affiliates, with no REAL hits. I get the feeling that most of the "Mistresses" around 20 to 28 maybe 30 just want money. I guess they found about about financial domination online and said,"hey I will give it a shot.". Hell I have seen some girls on here who don't know a thing about bdsm nor care yet they want money or tribute. The way I look at it is that if you truly have interest in this lifestyle and want to explore real, passionate bdsm relationships then money should NOT be the greatest common denominator. It makes you look shallow and furthermore, if your a true Dom, then you should not be trying to rely on other peoples finances so much. This is just the way I feel however so don't take it personal if anyone disagrees please.

If when women take the money, they're whores; then when the men take the money, they're whores. That sounds about right but amongst professional sex workers the term "whore" is often indicative of some one who fucks for free. They prefer the term prostitute, sex worker or provider. Calling it, "taking charge" when it's a guy and calling it, "charging" when it's a woman, is just sexist propaganda with no roots in rationale, logic or reality. This comes under the heading of preaching to the choir. Some Doms & Dommes profit financially off the backs of their submissives and other Doms & Dommes, choose NOT to profit. It's not a male or female thing... it's a FinDom and FinDomme thing. Yup

How is that "interesting," in light of the fact that females are typically relationship-minded & oriented (vis-à-vis needing to make trust-based emotional investments), whereas males stereotypically have commitment issues--on both sides of the kneel and ESPECIALLY in between?

Look again...I posted that I posted what I observed. Nowhere did I state that I believed what I observed...or did not believe it. Nor did I state that I don't know how it's defined. Nor did I state that I know nothing about it. And you're right, just because most people have an opinion on a subject that differs from yours, that does not make them right. But when it comes to a subject such as findomming, I'd have to say that it doesn't make them wrong either. A definition? I've seen several. From several Dommes on various threads. From various internet sites. I know which definition sounds most ethical and honorable to me. But that doesn't make me right. Of course...it doesn't make you right either. Unless you have some special accreditation I didn't know about...?

TNDommeK -> RE: Dommes and money (8/14/2014 9:08:20 PM)
No,no accedidations...just the ability to see things from different perspectives. But there are a select few of us who aren't rinsers or fin ducks. Those of us who actually have relationships with our subs, who actually control the finances and engage in a D/s dynamic. But I've yet to hear about that.. Instead I've read about how you feel I'm being snarky or how I'm tryin to be right. All I'm simply trying to enlighten you on is there are actual fin dommes who aren't sex workers, who aren't tryin to "make a quick buck" and who actually take pride in what they do.

When the women felt that all they were getting from their money was sex and kinky play and controlling for the money they were putting out, they left. Whereas many male submissives complain that they pay the money and still don't get the sex and kinky play, but still get plenty of controlling. It's a bit ironic, isn't it that...in some instances, despite the old saying...you DON'T get what you pay for? I have to admit to some curiosity over the next thing that comes to mind. On average, who would pay over a longer length of time for NOT getting what they're paying for...female submissives or male submissives? I happen to think you are mainly right regarding commitment issues but while men having problems with commitment have been...and still are...the norm, today you see more and more women with commitment issues. Among cohabiting couples, 41% of the men are not completely committed to their partner while the percentage of women that are not completely committed has risen to 26%.
