I really appreciate your post, NibbyJibby. I honestly didn't expect any finsubs to come out of the woodwork and share their experiences. Thanks for stopping by and enlightening me. It was a pleasure to read your post. A lot has been said since I was last on, but rather than address a lot of similar posts individually, I think I'll just sum up my thoughts on them all. In essence, I think we've pretty much exhausted this discussion point, at least as far as I can see. The point of the original post was to explore what financial domination is, to discuss the misconceptions that originally made me uncomfortable with it, and to address some aspects of the less ethical findoms that disturbed me. What it turned into, eventually, was a discussion on the ethics of financial domination and forced intoxication. All in all, I think we can all agree that to each his own, different strokes folks different folks, and all that jazz. Financial slavery is just another power based kink, like any other, that finsubs and findoms can safely enjoy, together, in a consensual environment. I think that, in all likelihood, the discrimination that exists against it is due to the attitude many findommes portray, which may make them look heartless, when really they are just putting on an act to serve their clients the way they want to be served. Yeah, there will always be unethical dommes, and cops, and doctors, and other such persons out there. And perhaps the prospect of free money attracts a lot of lazy, unethical youngsters to the findom business. But as both xXBlushesxX and NibbyJibby pointed out, you can't generalize based on this. Good findommes are out there satisfying the needs of finsubs and the bad ones go out of business sooner or later. I wish more could have been said on the specifics of findom safety. Although many have said otherwise, I do feel that draining your wallet can be dangerous to your health, just like excessive gambling can be, so findoms need to be careful. I mean, all kinsters need to be careful. But as xXblushesxX said (and I appreciate the harshness!) a magician can't give away all her tricks. While I still don't understand what ethical standards could possibly be considered "tricks," I am not a findom, so I can't speak on that point. Never-the-less, I am still curious. And, unfortunately, I still think forced intox sessions, no matter how you put it, are unethical unless a spending limit is agreed upon prior and the domme looks out for signs of alcohol poisoning, as much as she is able over cam or phone. I appreciate all those who participated and discussed this topic, though I know its controversial, and I genuinely p*ssed a lot of people off. But really, you can't learn anything without asking a few dumb questions and getting slapped around a bit, can you? Toodles for now! HisPet
