while i do not fallow the sheep context. I do know from experince what works and what does not.. There are people who know more then i do.. the people i respect and trust all have paid their dues long before the net..
proof is in what you do not what you say.. I deal with this all the time in IT.  i always have fun when  young pup dumps data or crashes a massive network. the problem is when it cost us.. again someone at twenty would not have the knowledge other then text book knowledge to deal with bipoloar disorders. mpds tons of other issuses not to mention. health problems .fiscal problems.. with older subs.. infact how to treat and experinced sub... their mental state would be different.....

Agreed. But treating bipolar disorders is not part of the d/s lifestyle.

It really is about life experince. it is why you do not see a lot of ceos at 20 years old.. there is a set order to everything. a natural guide line so to speak.  or for that matter 20 a year old president lol


I would say it's about life experience of those who are willing to learn from both their own mistakes and the mistakes of others AND having a caring heart. I happen to know 2 Dommes in their 20's who would probably qualify more than some of the 40- & 50-something "Dominants" I have met here on Collar Me. The 20-somethings have more years than they legally should have in the lifestyle. Some of the 40- & 50-somethings have much less than that and have no clue about people. Experience is nice and very useful but having the wisdom to learn from that experience is more helpful. Knowing enough to learn from the wisdom of other people's mistakes is even better. A 20-something Dominant can have that ability and pick up necessary people skills that way if they are willing.

Just my thoughts.....

The problem is that time spent in the lifestyle does not mean a person spent all that time actively learning. A person can paint for 20 years and still be a crappy painter if they never bothered to learn anything.

i am sticking to my guns on this one just know from experince...and if you do the percentages a lot of  older lifestyle people will tell you the same.. you might know the motions or the text book knowledge for something in a ds long term relationship with out that real life experince it just is not going to work. that hs been proven

Well, you are the only one I hear this from and I'm relatively active in a local group comprised of people twice our age and older. You are assuming that 20-somethings only have textbook knowledge. Valyraen and I live a very real d/s relationship and we are in our 20s. He is a wonderful dominant for me and we are both learning as we go.

You can only learn to be a dominant by actually being one. You don't magically get the knowledge when you hit 30 or 40. The only way you learn how to own a slave and how to care for one is to do it. So you start doing it when you are ready to start learning. Maybe you weren't ready to start learning when you were 20 but some people are.

I would agree with you, Aqua. The 20-somethings I know are living it and have been for a while, longer than some 50-somethings I know. So, who has more experience? And if they are capable of reading other people's stories and learning from them, then they've absorbed that knowledge as well so they don't have to make the same mistakes. Some people aren't capable of doing that.

Just my thoughts......

I have yet to see that proof, but I do respect your right to be wrong.

Yes, that's also common sense. I'm not including players and non-active lifestylers since that's not what he wrote. I'm just going with his simply stated sentence. If a person is in the lifestyle for a longer period of time (actually in there, not pretending to be), then they will have acquired more knowledge. They would have seen more, spoken to more people in the lifestyle, and likely have tried more personally. There is no given rule with it but clearly I can see why people would assume it. A person in one profession or hobby would have gained more knowledge than a newbie in it.

Don't take me wrong - if you're a dominant that's a natural then you don't need the years to make you a great dominant, because you already are one. I know there's plenty who have been out there for awhile and most subs here wouldn't give them the time of day long.

I can think of many reasons why there isn't a 20 year old president and experience doesn't even enter the top 100.[;)]
Besides, a 20 year old could have far more experience of BDSM than a 50 year old.
Age does not facilitate experience.  And experience doesn't aid judgement.

That's actually one of the main reasons I haunt the forums so much. I know we are still new to this and we want to see where things can go wrong, see where other people have had problems and try to figure out how we will handle them before it happens. It's helped a great deal. [:)]

You certainly can if you like. But I'm sure that you will understand that it won't affect my feelings on the matter, as I know it won't affect yours.

You aren't listening.

We aren't learning from a textbook. We learn from others. We attend a local group where the more experienced dominants and submissives teach us. We meet with other BDSMers our own age where we share experiences, techinques, styles, tips and how-tos. We pay attention to those on the forums and learn from their experiences. We are respectful of those with more knowledge and they show us what they know.

I pay attention to how others here conduct their relationships. I make notes, I listen. I see what works for them. We see if it works for us.

There is no textbook, only a living classroom with other BDSMers as our teachers and our fellow students.

Instructors are people who know a great deal and have earned a great of respect in the BDSM community through time. Not every dominant is an instructor.

That doesn't apply to us since we aren't a poly household and aren't going to become one anytime soon. If we do become one it will be when we are settled. Think in ten years.
quote:

Again, lectures are given by a select few who have proven their skills over and over to many people. The vast majority of dominants and masters are simply not instructors and do not give lectures.

That is simply the way it is.
