and in return i got treated the same way? So what's the difference. if you think that way..yes i call bullshit..maybe some should have a thicker skin. If you know who you are and that your life is okay then why get so riled up?

28/7 is pi, in Indaina. well, not really - they did repeal that law. But, my god, that was the stupidest law in the history of the planet!

(srrsly - Indiana once passed a law that declared that pi was 4. Not even 3 - apparently the legestrators did not know how to round correctly)

This is what is REALLY pi, btw -
How I wish I could enumerate pi easily today.

There is the ideal, and then there is the reality of people working toward that ideal.

As a writer, it's not within my frame of reference to claim that everyone can define for themselves what words mean; if we did that, words would have no meaning at all. But in our lifestyle as in others, all parties in a given relationship not only have the freedom to but are actually under an obligation to define for themselves how they will apply the ideal to their own lives.

Given our acknowledged live-and-let-live perspective, it behoves us to withhold public judgement on the acivities of others unless we find ourselves compelled morally or legally to take some sort of action. It is reasonable to judge the actions of others, though, as an assessment of the larger world in which we've immersed ourselves. How else does one measure what is appropriate for oneself?

Twenty years ago not only would we not have been having this conversation, but if we had, I would have held that 24/7 could not exist outside of living together and would certainly not apply to a Dominant and a submissive living in different countries. My experience since has proven otherwise. Thus I counsel patience and tolerance, and say take what you like, what feels right for you, and leave the rest.

I do find the discussion interesting, though...

these are completely irrelevant points. Simply put..if you are not with them and accessible you are not 24/7..This is to the fella KOM as well..you don't like my view..tough shit..If you were here it would be no different, i'd tell you to your face. I don't "understand" it as you do that's for sure but luckily you didn't write the book on it all. You can say all the cute things you like but that's not going to change the fact that what you see as 24/7 is really part time no matter how much of everything else you pretend to put into it. It just isn't going to change the definition of it. Of which i think the rational people have stated already..

The main issue Icarys for me, is that by your definition, I still see that 24/7 does not and cannot exist at all. There are plenty of dominants who have submissives who work, yet they live together. BDSM couples that have people under their care, disabled s-types - and couples whose work seperates them, in the case of say - Army. By your definiton, 24/7 does not exist - Do you agree or disagree?

maybe thats because the way you expressed yourself could be construed as offensive, its just a warning to tone it down

I guess if "allowed" this could go on for days with a new person saying the same ole thing or the personal attacks could continue..let's just agree to totally disagree and be done with it.

If someone 'lives in' but is unable to be 'on call' 24/7 to serve, then surely that negates24/7? You hold fast the notion that the only defining factor of a 24/7 relationship is they must live in ? I am not ignoring the whole concept of the importance of availability, I am just surprised anyone can expect service or authority (depending the side of the kneel you are on) to be defined and expected 23/7/365 days a year without any form of 'give'. Blergh, I am not even sure I made myself clear there.

It is all inclusive for those behaving inappropriately(Re:those).It helps if everyone takes a note of that.

No i understand what you are saying. No we cannot be "available every second of the day" but they are accessible..they are no more than a short distance away..whether it be at work or taking the kids out for ice cream..you get my point. I simply mean that as we get closer to the actual definition of what 24/7 means then we are closer to what it actually means. As you add distance and every other thing in life you move away from the actual truth of the definition. You don't have the option of turning the monitor off or even the thought in the back of your head as a possibility if things get to much. Live with a slave or Master then you live 24/7.

Ok... I am starting to 'get' your thought process now.
When I was 8 hours apart from Darcy, We never of considered our relationship '24/7'. When I moved nearer and eventually when we were living in the process of moving in together (we were about 15 mins walk apart) we considered ourselves 24/7 - I was constantly available to the same extent I am now that I live under the same roof. Yet we were not living together. By your definition, I fit all the criteria save the 'living together' part... which is why I was trying to work out why 'living together' for you was so vitally important - when for us, I was equally available... just 5 minutes away. For anything that I could not be there for - say a glass of water - I made sure that was already provided for in the sense that bottled water was within his reach as an example. We totally believe that service is forethought as well immediate.
