ORIGINAL: Ethicaldom CALL OUT TO THE OLD GUARD I wonder how many of the old guard dominant sees the bullshit going on ... Well MD and Ethicaldom, in the misquoted words of Apollo 13, "Houston, we have a problem." First off, the term "Old Guard" was coined relatively recently, and is used to refer to gay leathermen who came up in the gay motorcycle clubs that formed after World War II. MOST of the real "Old Guard" are gone now, and the few remaining ones are going to be leaving us over the next few years. It's a crying shame because they have a lot of information and history to share with us. Thank God for the Leather Archives and Museum Next, the men who really were what _we_ call "Old Guard" don't refer to themselves that way. So, if I hear a heterosexual male, under the age of about 80, claim he's "an Old Guard" Dominant, unless he belongs to a pansexual munch group or MC that calls itself "The Old Guard" (and I have no doubt some buncha posers somewhere has done it), I'm going to call BULLSHIT in no uncertain terms. Soooo, what's fucked up about the lifestyle, now? Straights at the gates? They let women in? Anyone with a computer can get access to the one, true, only deadly secret path to Leather Enlightment and BDSM Nirvana? Someone's let the Secret Handshake outta the bag? What? Sorry but I get tired of the "kids are ruining this thing that we do! We have to protect our precious lifestyle... yada, yada, yada.... whine, bitch, moan..." crap. I'm 45 years old and I learn good stuff from people half again my age and from people half my age. The objective here is to learn what works for you and yours, keep an open mind about what works for others, and discard the rest. And I still want Lucky A to marry me! Well, okay, bottom for me in a really hot scene... *grin* And yes, I know, many of you can pick your jaws off the floor, I actually posted something! YIK, - Geoff
