OK, here's your problem..... quote:
ORIGINAL: SweetDommes Just as an example: I'm an RN - do I get shitty when people think I'm an LPN? No - although there is a true and real difference between the two (schooling, licensing, continuing education, etc). But we're all nurses, so it's no big deal if people get it wrong. I'll correct them if they have it wrong on official documents, but otherwise, I don't care. See, this hit the nail right on the head. To use the nurse analogy, the problem is that you only have one category. Unlike nurses, you don't have separate titles to make the distinction between what activities that you engage in or not. The pro domme who is letting her clients engage in sex with her in Australia, is the same as the pro domme who lists allowing her clients to have oral sex with her on the 'menu', is the same as the pro domme who is engaging in S/m only. It's all the same term. All of these fit the definition of pro domme (which personally, I think 'pro top' in some instances would be more correct) and as long as someone has made money from the proposition, they are justified in using it. Granted, that doesn't help one bit with accuracy. Unfortunately, as a human race, people tend to think the worst before having all of the information. That means until some additional terms to distinguish one type of pro domme from the other becomes common knowledge, many people are going to think all pro dommes fuck their clients unless told otherwise.
