This just happens to be one of my pet peeves. I may be a dominant male but I am also a gentleman. I believe that you treat a woman with respect in any situation, especially if they are your submissive. Those that want to flex their Domly muscles and prove to everyone that they are dominant by treating potential sub's like shit will be alone for quite a while. Just from reading these forums, I have seen countless posts about Dom's writing an opening email demanding submission from someone that they don't even know. If you cannot bother to introduce yourself and nurture a friendship first before attempting a Dom/sub relationship then you miss the point about a relationship at all. I have said this once, I will say it again, have some dominants forgotten about romance? I guess I am from an old school of thought, but I thought the point of searching for a mate involved romance and love. Gauge i fully agree with Gauge. i just wanted to add my two cents. Any Man who speaks down to you; who demands ANY show of submission whilst you are virtual strangers; who behaves as if subbies and slaves are a lower form of life; is IMO, not a Dom. As others have said, through education etc. such a Man may become a Dom (though i rather doubt it) but He may also be an abuser, testing you to see whether He can cull you from the fold easily. In any event, rudeness IMO should be met with silence and distance unless it persists, and then it should be handled by those in charge. Rarely is it necessary for a woman to fight with a man over mistreatment when the two do not know one another. candystripper
