PANKRATIO -> RE: An Apprentice (7/1/2015 3:55:01 PM)
|
I'd like to take the OP at his word, even if I think a few of them are just a touch naïve.
Yes, the likelihood, pointed out by goddesses of logic and female subs in the Ask a Master sub-forum is rather tiny that anyone is willing to share their slaves/submissives with someone else altruistically.
You're right, artemiss, OP ought to invest in his own. Probably not going to happen in the near near future, given that his profile is so poorly scribbled for an anglophone that one could perscribe it as birth control. When it comes to investment, as you call it, I'd like to look at it from another direction.
This man warrants the benefit of the doubt, as we all do, so let's consider that his concern for the welfare of his potential future submissive or slave women may be so great that he is willing to undertake anything to prepare himself for their eventual arrival into his life. This doesn't sound like such a bad thing.
There are men, in real life, who are perfectly willing to share their toys to mentor other men in their use, care and skill. I happen to be one of them. There are more than a few people who have learned a skill or an art from me, practicing at first with my equipment before taking it up on their own.
I'll venture a guess that the second half of the OP's request is a sign as sure as any that as a neophyte in the onlinest of terms, he's been rightly believing what collarspace users (among others) have been wrongly implying about a sense of community.
Why might that be? How could this person's expectations of digital fraternity be so at odds with what he received in return or even what exists on this site?
Whether I type them or someone else does, the disparity between Preaching to the Perverted's club scene and London's real life fetish clubs is a boring topic. So is the contrast between the abundance of slave-auction fiction and the paucity of online or real-life auctions, which apparently peaked with slavefarm.com ten years ago, and a certain "Amanda" who sold herself online in the nineties. Yes, someone could certainly be forgiven for thinking he's joining the "Largest BDSM community on the planet!"
Where is the sense of community? I find it unsurprising that it was Arturas, the fellow fellow I'd peg as gorean (at once the least accepted and least accepting sub-branch of this tree) who came closest to reaching out. So if you're looking for community, advice, mentorship, fraternity, etc, it seems goreans score better than average, even if too, *[see what I did there?;)]the gorean community is also rather less than the sum of its parts. Maybe it's a man thing.
So, SadisticDomZ, if you'd like an apprenticeship, advice or any such thing, I don't think you'll find it here. The best advice for you to follow is that of your first respondent in this an your other threads, your fellow brit Disgaldrar. I generally wouldn't advise taking dating advice from women, but she's right on the money.
