ORIGINAL: imthatacheyouhav Thankyou for taking the time for sharing your personal views, it is helpful and insightful...i'm curious, are there 24/7 "pets" meaning thats the only way they are ever treated?...or is that even possible ?..... and i'm sorry if my not understanding this dynamic came acrossed in an assholeish manner...its not the 1st time i have stuck my foot in my cyber mouth...and i doubt it will be the last...again...thankyou for taking the time to share this girlie You are welcome. All you had to do was ask :) As for 24/7 pets, I am not that, and I can not speak for others who engage in it. I can only imagine, however, that it fulfills a need and/or desire in both/all parties who engage, or they would likely not be engaging in it. I did talk with a man on CM once who did wish for a full time puppyslut. He said she would ALWAYS behave as a pup and ALWAYS be treated as one. Upon further conversation, exceptions came up, which made room for "life" stuff - going to the doctors, going outside for air, taking care of "life" issues for him, etc. But the thing is, as "out there" as such a way of life may seem to you & I, if it works for those doing it, then by all means, let them do it. Just because you and I might think something is too extreme for us, doesn't mean it isn't the most fulfilling way of life someone else can imagine. So often we only relate to how WE (collectively) might feel, without taking into account that someone else may actually love it. So if someone is looking for a 24/7 pet, I don't automatically assume he wants to kidnap some poor soul and lock her up against her will. I'm going to assume he's looking for someone who wants to be kept as one, and wish him a happy search. :)
