ORIGINAL: Shylahgirl It's kind of like if you're wearing a wedding ring (Yes I remember what I said before about compering the collar to a wedding ring) and saying, "I'm married" and still guys asking you out on dates and trying to get in your pants. You are young and attractive...on top of that there is always going to be some guy (probably more than one <grins>) out there who would try and get in your pants, so to speak, even if you are laid up in the hospital in a full body cast. A collar and/or wedding ring might just look like really cool jewelry ~ if he or she notices at all, they might think you are good for the dinner tab. Its why there are beer commercials. I would think the only way someone could lessen the "work" and bank of emotions you have already put into your collar is if you actually allow them to affect how you feel about it. Whether you respond with grace, humor or anger to what you perceive as disrespect, if you respond at all it will reflect your own opinion of what your collar means to you, not necessarily anyone else's exact opinion. (Why do I keep picturing Rodney Dangerfield, "I don't get no respect....") You can gently or harshly let someone know what it means to you, or dismiss/delete at whim with a glance or a button. The worst thing (in my opinion) would be if my perception of the meaning of the collar placed around my neck was jarringly different from what the dominant male doing the placing was thinking it meant. It has probably happened somewhere. I would hope I am smarter than that, but I too sometimes drink beer, so you never know. I can understand becoming aggitated with a constant barrage of "So, do you wanna?" but I do not truly understand how the actions of others could upset you so much. Even if a couple is done in a week, they were happy for five days or so, give or take. Good for them. Best wishes in your journey, Christine
