i dont have long here, so ive skipped reading everyone - i just wanted to say this..., (sex with the dog!!!?????) no that wasnt what i wanted to say, but damn girl! ok, - when a D asks you to do things that are in direct conflict with your situation it shows a lack of consideration, respect and it brings into question his reliability as a leader. when that happens the dynamic starts to fail and you begin to question yourself and your submission to him. thats allowed, infact its totally understandable. it isnt you thats in question here, you are clearly doing your best to submit to a guy who has apparently shown very little respect or regard for you, your parents or your dog, for that matter, poor mutt! (and by the way, isnt there a law against that!) i wouldnt just question my submission to this guy, id question the sustainability of a relationship with him.

It's childish and judgmental. shakes head I keep thinking this is an adult site for people with fetishes, not a vanilla site where "kinky" means sex with the lights on, but maybe I'm mistaken.

Wow, thanks for the responses. Reading through the last half gave me an "oh Duh" moment. The biggest issue I should be dealing with is not whether or not I am really a submissive, and not if I'm with the right Dom, but why I'm with him at all. I swear I'm smart enough to know that even in vanilla relationships, lies and betrayal are unacceptable. But it's harder to make excuses for those things when it's staring back at you on a computer screen. I've known since the big lies started coming out that we probably weren't right for each other, but we're still entangled and I've been trying to keep him happy until he returns one of my most valuable possessions. And a part of me wanted his stories to be reconcilable and his excuses valid, because I really did care about him and didn't want to just be some fool that played no real role of lasting significance in his life. But y'all are right. My RL friends are right. He doesn't respect me. So- "oh Duh! Regardless of whether I'm really a submissive, he's not the right Dominant for me." Thanks for helping me get there. I still have questions about who and what I am. But I am realizing more now that my current situation isn't the best test of that. And the reason I don't have a profile set up is I'm not sure at this point what I'd put in it. I'm not sure how to best describe my tendencies and what I'm looking for. But I do like reading the boards and learning and contemplating.

Ok, I'm aware this was meant for the OP but, I just had a [sm=meh.gif] moment. Thanks. (just goes to show how reading advice for others can be really helpful)

My suggestion is to seek out a dom who shares the same basic moral code as you do. There are some people who will say you should obey, no matter, and some who say you should have boundaries etc. What it all comes down to at the end of the day is YOU having to feel right and feel fulfilled in what you are doing. Having difficulty doing something he wanted you to do, is fairly common for various reasons and should be expected in some ds relationships. But having difficulty obeying because it feels wrong to you in your gut, isn't something that's going to play out as beneficial to you, or to him for that matter. None of this means you aren't submissive. You said yourself "I have always been naturally submissive". That isn't going to go away if the relationship ends.

You're welcome! Now I feel all warm and fuzzy inside, especially since my moments of lucidity are few and far between. [:)]

I don't think kinky means having sex with those unable to consent, or courting jail for illegal acts. If it does, then I'll happily go back to that vanilla ice cream cone.

I used to question my submissiveness.... it ceased being important to me when I realized that it was not the label that mattered to me, it is being happy within my life. I suppose this is one of the reasons I quit posting for a while... If both you and your significant other are happy... what else matters?

WIITWD is illegal in many places. For instance, it's illegal to sell sex toys in some places. Also, the law doesn't always recognize consensual battery and can charge both participants with a crime. I believe sodomy is still illegal in places. What about indecent exposure and lewd conduct in the back seat of your car or back row of the movie theater? The thing is, this is an alternative lifestyle. We don't all play by the rules society makes regarding morals. Now that this thread has been jacked.....back to our regularly scheduled posting.

colouredin -> RE: Have you ever questioned your submissiveness? (10/4/2008 6:07:59 AM)
FR This is something I was thinking about the other day, Sir was saying that he was responsible for me and I thought no actually wait a minuite I am responsible for me, my actions come from me sure in a power exchange dynamic we transfer to someone else but we choose the person we do that with. Fundementally you wouldnt pick someone who is going to ask you to do things that you ethically disagree with, if you do then you remember that it is your right to leave the situation. Submission may be how we are wired but the bare bones of it is that we enjoy it, sure there will be occasions when we do things we wouldnt choose to but they cant be things that completely go against all our beliefs that is something that should never be compromised. Within my relationship I describe myself as having no limits because I have picked someone who fits me who wouldnt ask me to do something that i thought morally wrong. To the actual question, I have questioned my submission many times in the past when I was finding out who I am, I think its natural when you come up against loads of people telling you the right way to do things especially if you hero worship someone eventually though if you are smart you will wake up from all that crap and realise you are whatever you think you are, there is no need to second guess everything you do, there isnt a handbook on how to do it right. You do what you are comfortable with you find that power in submission the realisation that there is a choice and you define yourself in whatever way you feel happy with because at the end of the day the only person that you have to answer to is yourself.

Now that this thread has been jacked.....back to our regularly scheduled posting. just to hijack again... so long as its between consenting adults then sod the law, we're adults and its our business, noone elses.. but a line has to be drawn when consent is absent. im sure the dog didnt give its consent and im pretty sure her parents didnt give their consent to inadvertantly overhear a phonecall demanding that their daughter give the dog a blow job. (shudder) in my view there was nil respect for her parents and nil respect for the mutt. bang out of order.

i don't question my submissiveness, though there are times when i have questioned whether or not i wished to defer to the one i call my dominant at the time, or whether or not i wished to bottom only to him; generally, this only comes up when i feel that i'm being stepped on or taken advantage of because of my submissive tendancies toward them.
