ORIGINAL: Cell Anyone here have any anecdotes about pursuing kink with a vanilla partner they'd like to share? Or any lessons learned regarding turning a vanilla relationship into kinky one? I still consider a newbie who is in the exploration phase without any RT experience, one who hasn't been "broken in," to be vanilla. But I think you mean a thoroughly vanilla individual, although I don't know many who don't have hidden kinky desires of one sort or another. (Whether they'd be willing to act upon them would depend upon who they partner up with and how safe they feel in letting down their defenses.) So, from my standpoint, all of my former partners have been vanilla. Heck, I'm still mostly vanilla in terms of the BDSM lifestyle. D/s, however, is different. I have had a D/s relationship dynamic in virtually every LTR, not in the TPE sense, but by taking charge, by taking ownership of my mate, and in having my authority deferred to. This has always seemed natural to me (us), but that may be because I am only attracted to men who pride themselves on being a good lover who seeks to please his woman, both inside and outside of the bedroom. Plus, I don't connect with men who have a bunch of sexual hang-ups or sexual guilt issues (nor with men who swing to the other extreme with acting out sexually), so the kink factor hasn't become a stumbling block. It wasn't always this way in my younger years when my "picker" wasn't as fine tuned. DreamLady
