This section is open to those wishing to ask questions of a Master, in the hope of receiving answers from that particular perspective.
Experienced Masters are also encouraged to share their advice and knowledge regardless of if a question has been asked to prompt response. If you know the topic to be something that is often on the minds of newer people, or a subject you have found in your experience to be beneficial to address, feel free to take the initiative and open the discussion yourself .
Given the frequency that we see issues of protocol explored on the boards and in various discussions throughout the lifestyle ... i am curious about the use of this board and how Masters see it. The protocol has been given above ... This section is for those wishing to ask questions of a Master, in the hope of receiving answers from that particular perspective. Yet i see subs, switches, Dommes and slaves all posting answers here... not simply questions.
My question would be ... how do you feel about this complete disregard for the setup of this particular forum? i am not trying to cause problems but i am curious about what it says in an underlying message of the state of our -community- at this time, that there does not seem to be any regard to the clearly set up format of these boards. Do you think it's another clear indicator of our -community- that Masters are either consciously or unconciously being disregarded as Dominant voices and leaders in M/s, just as we see such a concentrated emmasculation of our men in American society? Do you see it as a disrespect and a lack of training on the part of those who disregard the clearly set up parameters of the board? Does it even occur to you or matter to you that this board is filled with female voices despite the delineation that has been set up to provide a more singular dominant male voice?
We've become so PC in our interactions ... even here in BDSM that we often don't enforce rules or bother with them for various reasons. i am sure the whole defensive posture or attacking posture can be daunting ... and i am sure there are many PC answers that can come ... "I am secure in my Mastery and it does not threaten me to have women participate here" ... etc ... but i confess i am confused. "Asking a Master" to me, implies a given understanding that a particular perspective is being sought to which rules are generally important and are enforced because it's an expression of Dominance. By nature or by test or what ever design you attribute it to ... slaves/subs/switches may seek to test those rules, boundaries, or policies. At a glance it appears that the women have completely disregarded the parameters set up for this board with little to no thought to it's intended purpose. Am i reading more into the strong presence of women answering questions here than there really is?
Perhaps it's always been this way and i, as a newbie am reading more into it than i should. However, i am not a newbie to BDSM nor other lifestyle forums in the least. It's just that one expects that in a lifestyle filled with protocol expectations ... they would be adhered to or enforced here. My Master tells me that there is a strong dillution on the BDSM community these days of strong Masters because no one wants to hear them roar. No one wants to be kept in check. Often Masters are attacked for keeping to protocol and enforcing it with others to the point that it just isn't worth the trouble. i am also wondering if there are Masters here who have experienced the same type of thing and are finding yourselves less willing to step out of Your own controlled or respected sphere of influence to try and educate the masses due to this general resistence of the community to respect the male dominant voice?
Thank you in advance for Your answers Sirs.
