OK, finally a chance to get back to this thread. I believe a mature sub is the greatest gift a dom can find. (And I don't mean that in the cliched sense of "submission is a gift.") I am much more interested in older subs than younger subs--for several reasons. Mainly, it takes a great deal of introspection and courage to have an honest d/s relationship, and most young people just haven't had the time to learn about who they are, nor the experience of seeing how things fall apart when you're not honest with yourself. The main reason why relationships fall apart is not lack of communication, or abuse, or whatever: it's a failure of one or both parties to be honest with themselves. If you're not honest with yourself, you can't possibly be honest with anyone else. To me, all this more than makes up for the little flaws and blemishes that gravity causes. What's important about a woman's body, anyway, is not how it looks--it's how you use it. Of course there are exceptions to what I'm saying: not ALL older subs have the self-awareness I'm talking about, and not ALL younger subs lack it. But as a rule, it just takes a certain amount of life experience, of being through some wars and heartache, before you realize who you are and what you need. Lam
