Status: offline 		Silly newbie I am to this site and many probably frequented terms in D/s In general.

So here's my question. Whats OP mean, and perhaps inlighten me and other's new to such terms to others you might want to bring up, local and rare terms both equaly intrested in!

Example:  D/s = Dominant and submissive
               Dom= Dominant
               Sub = submissive

Thanks in advance,

Status: offline 		One one of the two boards I Mod for (nope, sorry, automotive in nature, not lifestyle-related) we have a sticky, up top, with a rather informative (albeit locked) post with justa bout all our casual terminologies and abbreviations (why is that such a loooooong word?), so newbs can familiarize themselves, if they're clever enough to look in the "new members, read THIS first" (neat label, huh?) section.

Maybe something like that could be done, here, too.  Just need eerybody to chip in with abbrev's and terms, so that a list is compiled...

I think the other thing you are referring to is WIITWD - What It Is That We Do (took me a while to figure that one out too LOL!)

I see Domme, Domina and FemDom.  Are they equivalent or have shades of difference?

Thanks!  NightVine

Status: offline 		Oh, another thing, I have noticed caps for Dom(mes) and small letters for subs.  What's a swtich to do???  Does it depend on if s/he is referring to self in Dom(me) or sub context?

Status: offline 		I'm a fan of just using proper grammar and punctuation.  It's a personal preference really.  Some people do the Cap thing when talking about Dominants.  submissives are not capped.  A S/switch might be written like that and when talking to mixed company there are T/those who do the slashy thing when discussing P/people.  Personally that drives me batty. 

The different names for a fem dom are also typically personal preference.  Some use Mistress, Domme, Domina, FemDom, Master, Goddess, etc.

Status: offline 		I know what you mean. I always tell my boy not to abbreviate anything when chatting with me, its a pet peeve of mine. I might not be the best speller or even with grammer (knowing more then one language has been a slight barrier for me) so I always punish him when he slips up.
