ORIGINAL: houndguy At a munch recently a sub broke down in tears telling how she recieved a very distrubing e-mail. Wow, I gotta say that this would be a HUGE red flag for me. It's words on a screen, and you have all the control in the world to make it disappear and stop it from ever coming back. You don't have to read things that you find offensive/upsetting/inappropriate; all it takes is one little click on that "X" in the upper right corner of the window to make it dissapear from your existance. For someone to get so upset over an email from a stranger (my assumption that it's a stranger sending unsolicited email, based on the OP, though I acknowledge that I could be wrong here....blame the appletini again) seems way over the top to me. That just looks like way too much baggage going on under the surface for me to want to deal with it, even peripherally. It's email folks. Read it or not; that's up to you. Delete it. Block the sender. Send a nasty response. You have ALL the control in the world when it comes to your inbox. Exercise a little of it. (and FWIW, this is NOT limited to submissive women. I get just as many, if not more, offensive emails from submissive men as from dominant ones. Same applies, regardless of role.)
