Books, reading, Books, learning,


I bought this book
It is about power dynamics

At least, that is in the title.

I did read some, here and there out of this book
That got my intrigued....
I love being intrigued, by people, or books, or anything, that makes me wonder...

So, i started reading this book, in a more serious way

Got to a chapter about dating
it is a book writtin from the Gay Leather Orientation of SM and d/s.

He advised to just 'shop around' have lots of dates with this one and the other.
ëxperience this fetish and that.

have fun!, so to say.

I was appalled....
Why would i wanne do that?

With, sort of, totall strangers???
How about MY safety?
With those totall strangers?

That was what got me burned, in the first place, because i took "the casual road".
I DOnt want to travel thát road again!

I mean, no string attached sex?
Sure, i did that, in the 70/80....
Alright, that i can see.. as sort of safe...ish....
"it is JUST sex".

BUT, with things like SM in a d/s?
Even, if it is "just" a play contact, or something more??

I need that connection, to be able to submit or surrender...

It is not a shopping list kind of action, to me?!
Oh, you like whips too?
Great lets rock and roll!

Hell no!

I need to knów that person first, trust is very, very important to me.
Patient too.
How can i trust someone, when all i know about that person is, that he likes the same things..?
When i dont know anything about his personality?

Alright, the<b> author </font></b>also said, you need to negotiate with each other.
The whole orientation was only on the play contacts..
"having fun"..... amp;

So, i was a bit upset about that part of the book.

Found that part rather shallow.

Partners in Power is the title.

I like your take on the knowing first and trust. I always say there has to be
a connection for me .

electrosex,
It always feels good, when you feel you are still "in the market", with your leatherjacket!
