You have an almost uncontrollable desire to refer to your significant other (real or imagined) with an honorific rather than his/her name. You derive great personal pleasure from serving others in non-sexual ways (meals, cleaning, transcribing notes, etc.) You fantasize about someone giving you explicit directions on what they expect. You understand well that that … Continue reading Five signs you MIGHT be a submissive

Respect
I've been writing BDSM erotica for over 10 years now, but I've been practicing it for well over 30. My boyfriend, now my husband, and I just fell into it, not really even knowing what we were doing, but definitely knowing that what we were doing felt amazing. All of our adventures, though, hinged on … Continue reading Respect
Why being submissive means being STRONG
People who like to harshly judge what they don't understand often think that being a submissive means being a doormat at best and abused at worse. This could not be further from the truth as pointed out in an article in Psychology Today Rather than being weak, willingly giving up control to another person shows a … Continue reading Why being submissive means being STRONG
Anal Freedom
Anal seems dirty, forbidden, taboo even. It also seems like the ultimate limit of submission - at least for me. I have to admit, in the beginning of our relationship I was terrified, as most people are. However, as time went on, and my Man eased me into this new arena with care, compassion, gentleness, … Continue reading Anal Freedom
Sadness matters
(This is a piece of non-fiction.) I'm sad often. I am well aware that my problems are First World problems and am grateful every time I turn on a faucet for clean water, turn a switch for light, or push a button for cool air. But Sadness is real and affects the body in all kinds of … Continue reading Sadness matters

Peruse some factual and fictional sites together to come up with ideas that excite you both. Start slowly. When you are both ready, begin adding words like … Continue reading 5 ways to let Him know you need Dominated
Thoughts
I hate autumn. I hate the trees losing their greenness, losing their protective garments, losing that which conceals their true colors and forces them to expose their trueness to the world. Autumn truly is the last hoorah. The last burst of life before death covers the world and all that is left is the skeleton … Continue reading Thoughts
Z is for Zipper
Zippers have long been in use for a quick - or slow - removal of clothing. In the BDSM world, however, a zipper is a series of clothes pins attached to a string of some kind. The pins are then clipped onto the skin and, by pulling the string, can be quickly - and painfully! … Continue reading Z is for Zipper
Y is for Yes
Yes is an extremely powerful word. It implies permission and acceptance - two very different, but companionable ideas. The who says this (or doesn't say it) also holds a great deal of power. This, dear readers, is a shared responsibility between the Dom and Sub; Top and Bottom; Master/Mistress and slave. Any relationship, not just … Continue reading Y is for Yes
