LadyHugs -> RE: what is meant by a Dom " breaking" another Dom? (2/14/2007 9:10:28 PM)

Dear upsurd1, Ladies and Gentlemen; In the experiences through the years, there have been words used as "breaking" but, usually they had parallel experiences in the Equestrian world where its a common term which means 'training.' Unfortunately, we're working with assumptions though. If it was a person from the mid-west USA, I wouldn't be alarmed by it. Perhaps due to the Equestrian/Ranch/Rodeo connection. However, it would be different if the Dominant was elsewhere. That said, the individual may not be someone fluent in English so, uses the best terms in translation. Just some thoughts here, as many of my friends from overseas struggle with the language let alone typing it. Now, there is another vein of thought, where this person was bragging that they take Dominants and make mince-meat out of them as to humiliate, torment and or have the last word as to 'believe' he has broken or break Dominants. Some Dominants in not responding to another Dominant who is famous for such behavior; is merely walking away as it is pointless--yet, to those uninvolved may see it as the walk away Dominant as broken or have had the other Dominant break them. As far as 'training' other Dominants; the term can hold a variety of meaning, from mentoring to training, such as more detailed instruction. Even with the Academy in classes where I was a Faculty Member--the whole weekend is considered--"Training." In this Academy, many levels of training happens, from the obvious to the subtle. If I was in the position to ask questions of this Dominant; I would make more inquiries and reach deeper into something that must be experienced rather than read about. The part of 'bragging' in the original post may be a matter of perception. Again, I am dealing in assumptions as I wasn't there. Often times pride and passion can be misunderstood as 'bragging.' I am very proud as a mentor and educator, to have helped people. But, most who approach me have come from word of mouth referrals, such as Master X, Mistress Z telling you/others--Go see Lady Hugs as she can teach you [insert whatever interests one has]. Or, they see me at The Crucible, see a scene and after I'm done approach and take up from there. At times I introduce them to past students to whom add to the learning experiences. Just some thoughts. Respectfully submitted for consideration, Lady Hugs
