"Yes sir, these are our best cuffs. See how they have the extended material near the wrists? That's to keep your wrists from being damaged when being suspended. Would you like to try them on? Of course we have various accessories. For example, we often sell these with the heavy-duty snap hooks, capable of sustaining over 800 lbs of force."
"Oh, that screaming? Don't worry, this is the testing area, and in the room next door they're trying out one of those new electro-stim units. Here, let me take your jacket so you can move around more comfortably."
"As you can see, they are very comfortable, allowing your partner to stay suspended for a couple of hours. Yes, they are nice to look at, aren't they? Would these be for you or... ah, yes. I'm sure that your partner will be very pleased with them. Here, let's hook them up to the hoist so you can see how much weight they can take. Yes, they are quite comfortable, even on a big, strong man like you, sir. I imagine that your partner would have no trouble wearing these for a scene."
"No sir, I don't know why the screaming stopped next door. They must have finished testing already, and went to get another toy. But let's get you down and I'll show you some of those accessories for this set."
"I'm sorry, sir, I guess I must have jammed the hoist somehow. It should just take another minute to... damn! I can not beleive this; the little spring thingie seems to be stuck. No, I have no idea why, this has never happened before. I'll go get the manager, sir. I do apologize for the inconvenience. I'll be right back."

"I need some help, Julia. The friggin' hoist in room 3 is stuck again; do you have the little tool thingie to undo the ratchett? Mr. Allen has been hanging there for ten mintues. Oh, and Cat was playing with the new electro-stim in room 4, and I think it blew the circuit. That girl is out of control! I'll check the breaker while you find the tool."
"Oh Julia, I just saw that Dr. Digger guy on the floor in room 2, like he's passed out or something. And have you seen Cat? No? Well, I fixed the breaker, but I can't find Cat anywhere. Looks like she took the electro-stim with her. Did you find the tool for the hoist? No? Damn, Mr. Allen is going to be pi... Did you see that? The lights just dimmed! And... oh my god, who the hell is that screaming?"
You know I have always been intrigued by the idea of switching things up and being the dominant from time to time...
ReplyDeleteSshh! People will hear you and then tell you that you are not a "True Sub©", that you're not doing it right, etc.
ReplyDeletePersonally, I like to switch it up a bit. Keeps things in perspective, and sometimes gives you a new one. Plus, anytime that you're making your partner feel yummy is just plain fun!

I am always surprised by that you would think there would be less rules.
ReplyDeleteWell I guess you have thrown down the gauntlet and now I must come up with a Friday Fantasy story. Maybe something where I spank you with the gideon bible? I will have to mull it over...
A friend of mine dated a "spanko", and learned all these "rules" for BDSM, which she never seemed to get out of her head, even though she didn't like them.
ReplyDeleteFor example, she learned that a "true" Domme is not supposed to allow her sub to have penetrative sex with her. And, on the very rare occasion that she might, he is never to climax inside her.
This might work in the fantasy land of Femdom porn, or even in some very isolated situations (I can think of one right off the top of my head), but it posed a problem for us because she enjoyed penetration - specifically by me. When we'd play, she'd try to get into "Dom space", but would always admit to being a bad or poor Dominatrix because she'd orgasm strongly that way. The underlying assumption was that by allowing herself to climax, she was giving up some control.
Further, she would see-saw about allowing me to orgasm, because she preferred to have me inside her... except that she "learned" that this also made her a poor Domme, and so she'd actually apologize.
I'm sure some jaws are dropping. A Domme apologizing? Yeah, the entire thing is silly; not so much the apology but the reason for it. Who the hell makes up these rules, anyway?
And to be fair, some people really enjoy the rules and regulations; that's why we have Gor aficionados and "Old Guard" groupies. That's cool. But we'd all be better off if some of us - me included, I guess - stopped going around labeling people "true" or "faux" BDSMers because they prefer to do this or that instead of following some arbitrary rules.
