ORIGINAL: RavenMuse Still you don't GET IT dear. I'm not quite sure why you insist that I'm not getting "it". I understand very well the issue that I brought up, and at the very least, LA did as well when she addressed it. She admitted that a lot of subs get told to "suck it up", but she also pointed out that there is a right and wrong way in dealing with feelings. If I understood her correctly in this, I wholeheartedly concur... it isn't the emotions that are inherently right or wrong, it is how we act upon them. Where she and I MIGHT disagree is the frequency in which submissives' feelings get dismissed in these forums, but I am more than willing to acknowledge that my impressions in that regard may not be born out as completely accurate by the facts. It is just my "feeling", after all. quote:
ORIGINAL: RavenMuse D/s... Dominant controls, submissive submits.... A Dominant sets the rules... if those rules are ones the submissive CAN'T accept then she is with the wrong damn Dominant. They are not compatible. Are you trying to say negative destructive emotions such as jealousy are valued things? positive things? Don't make Me laugh! I lable them as negative because they are destructive to her and to a relationship.... where they are part of someone *I* Own I will change them over time... thats MY responcibility. something a girl sees and WANTS before they are going to get to the point of looking to submit to Me, part of the compatability... ...If the Domme dislikes a situation with a sub they change it.... if it can't be changed with that sub... probably the wrong sub If a sub dislikes a situation with a Dom they submit to it.... if they can't submit to that Dom... probably the wrong Dom If they are compatable then it works... You and I do not disagree on this issue. If both partners want different things and cannot reconcile or compromise, then yes, they are incompatible. This holds true for any kind of relationship, whether vanilla or D/s. However, this never had anything to do with my point that it appears as if submissives' feelings are given less consideration than Dominants'. quote:
ORIGINAL: RavenMuse ...You seem to want to set out how a Dom makes their decisions, what decisions they will make.... want to write a script for him to follow? (Small h on Him there as someone who would allow that would NOT be taking a Dominant role!). You want the control, get your arse on the other side of the dynamic and take up the responcibility that goes with it.... I'm not sure where you came up with this as I've made no comments about how a Dominants should or should not make a decision. It appears to be nothing more than a not-so-veiled attempt at telling me that I'm not a "true" submissive. Aside from that, you can beat your chest all you want proclaiming that you're the Dom and it's your right and choice and responsibility, but when push comes to shove, you've already given your ultimatum... it's YOUR way, or the highway... you've just set the deadline for compliance to some unknown time in the future. Your girl exercises her control by accepting and allowing that ultimatum to exist in her world. That's her choice and if it works for her, I think it's great. It allows you to be compatible right now. quote:
ORIGINAL: LuckyAlbatross The ultimate reality in any consensual relationship (and no matter how anyone FEELS, we must all hold to consensuality as a given), is that you either accept it or you reject it. That really is the end of it. This doesn't matter if it's mono or poly, dom or sub, vanilla or kinky. Whatever situation you are in, you either say yes or say no. Exactly. Thank you.
