Is anyone else concerned about these people who must need emotional, physical and quite possibly psychiatric help may not be getting it? If the scars are so bad, that they won't heel? Ever? Why? Where are the police in all of this?

Abuse under any guise is nonetheless abuse... it can happen in all walks of life, and does. I don't know any statistics, but, would love to find some that shows the correlation of abused or murdered women (men too) were living in a D/s relationship or not?  And within those D/s relationships where abuse does exist, how many of them are young or old? Abuse is something that happens at all age groups and of all generations/color/religion, it does not discriminate.

As with any online site, you need to be responsible for yourself, take all precautions when you are on CM... I was relatively naiive and got started on this internet thing later in life, and I still figured that out relatively quickly, didn't need anyone to explain that to me either.  In the end, sometimes *shit* happens, even with safety and precautions in place... is it an entire community, generation, or even websites fault? I think not...

edited to say: maybe I am still naiive to fall for a tall tale. As somebody pointed out earlier -- maybe this is just their ploy to get disenchanted or abused submissives to flock to them for sympathy... although, I don't think that will work either, just a guess though...

In that case, it's not up to you to deal with it, but rather for your local law enforcement officials.

That is the whole issue, many of us think of Old Guard as a gay leather lifestyle thing that cropped up after WWII with counter culture, strict military protocol and that sort of thing. I have heard some use the term the way that you have, but by and large they have some idea that there is some ubiquitous form of conduct and rigid protocol structure that just never existed at the national level from everything I have read about the subject.

As far as the rest of your story, others have recommended it, report abuse! If you know someone is being abused report the perp immediately. Posting to a bunch of strangers, possibly a few dozen at most that will take what you say seriously, is not the best way to stop abusers... shining a light on them in your community is.

While we are at it, you might find what you can do in your area to help with abused women shelters. Perhaps giving your time to something that is not only a "lifestyle" issue would be much more productive... as was mentioned, vanillas abuse too. My exhusband is a good example of that.

I'm not meaning to be disrespectful, but, I'm still wondering if the police have been called? I'm quite concerned about this... also, have the perpetrators been arrested and/or prosecuted?  If it is how you say it is, this was abuse, plain and simple.

I'm also quite concerned that what is so apparent to me that abuse is abuse... call it whatever you like, tie a pink ribbon on it, doesn't change what it is.... abuse.  Abuse happens in ALL walks of life by all generations, ages, races, religions, economic status... it does not discriminate. One need look look to far back in history to hear of "old-timers" in entertainment whom people respected and admired only to come to find out they were abusive f*ck-heads... most of us either have personal or family experiences with it as well (my grandfather was a horrid man to my father and my Aunt... and I don't think he was into BDSM more like Jameson Irish Whiskey). So age or lifestyle is not a deciding factor of abuse and I don't think purely "inexperienced Doms" are the only ones in life guilty. 

And I'll second what juliaoceania said, maybe this is something you need to take up in your community, RT... volunteer at women's shelters, etc. If you are really concerned about how this next generation "have altered this lifestyle" -- (I may not be young, or a Dom but, I'm new to the lifestyle, so therefore, inexperienced and not of your generation too) may be try to give classes/ seminars/ online chats/ post more poitive threads than this one to discuss it -- rather than making a blanket/accusatory statement... reminded of an old-time tv show quote "never assume... you make an ass out of u and me" -- little humor

Side question: If you are the original poster, why do you have so many names? I'm not being "flip" I'm just curious.

Colour me confused but if you've been together for 14 years and have a 14 and 15 y/o.........?? The math is a bit wonky.

I was wondering that as well.

I don't care if he's gay or not. I was merely pointing out that gay men are 100 percent male. I was being critical of your assertion that gay men are not men. It's an attitude that they have had to live with for a long time, and it's worth pointing out that it's wrong.

I was going to say something "flip" about this group of posters myself... changed my mind... want to take the higher road. But, I agree with you Lorelei, I don't think they are very dedicated to their cause... and I'm very serious about my concern for these people who obviously need serious medical and probably psychiatric attention pronto as well as that there might be preditors on the prowl. 

On a side note: I will say that the OP's (group of OPs) snide remarks about homosexuality they have been making has been killing me -- I have been biting my tongue, or holding my fingers as it were, not to comment on the 100% male thing... geesshhhh... gay men are 100% male too! The OPs go on and on protesting and protecting their "heterosexuality" -- was this an insult to them? Really? Being called gay is an insult? Not to me at all. Besides, I can think of a lot better insults than calling someone gay as I'm not in high school anymore...

Woops, I guess I got a little flip there

Well, I am feeling slightly insulted that they equate age/expereince with abuse myslef... but, I'm not going to let it get to me.

I now have developed a complex.

I am not a dominant because I live in an apartment and now, because of lack of experience as a dominant I have ruined the BDSM lifestyle.

Can anyone give me directions to the nearest bridge please?

huh? was that directed at me? or just a fast reply?  What do you mean? 

... I'm not sure if you are agreeing with me that the OP's need to stop comparing a question about homosexuality to an insult or if you mis-read me --do you think that I was insluting them?

If you did, I appologize and I assure you I was not... just questioning why they got all upset about somebody questioning their sexuality, I'd never be offended if somebody called me gay, silly to get upset over it like that I think. 

Moreover my point is less about that and more about these victims... as well as do not go around equating lack of experience or age to abuse or "ruining the lifestyle"  I don't get that statement at all
