I guess you could classify me as  "Been there...done that....and ... excited to do it again"

Status: offline 		Dear Jay179, Ladies and Gentlemen;

Hasbeens can be rather interesting.  Once the shining stars of the scene or well known, the experience, the knowledge and life's experiences of a hasbeen is where most are following behind the hasbeen.

Much like changing of the guard, the old guards phase into a different level and associate with others of the same era per se.  We might not physically die but, just fade away -- unless, we're captured in the archives of the lifestyle.

Respectfully submitted,
Lady Hugs

I hear alot about wannabes and am puzzled by what is said. wouldn't all of us have been a wannabe at some point or other? How else would one learn? Or is there a different wannabe You're talking about? Just asking questions to further my growth.  With All Due Respect bondageluver


The way I look at it, there are Wannabes, and there are Gonnabes.
 
The Wannabe is someone who might talk the talk, but is primarily driven by sex, and will never in their lifetime ever have a clue as to what it means to either own another person, or be someone else's property.  They will forever view their counterparts with a wanker's eye, and will not normally bother to educate themselves beyond what they can pick up at a play party.
 
The Gonnabe is someone who will one day walk the walk.  They're genuinely interested in all facets of the lifestyle, and are not primarily driven by sex.  They look at every discussion as an opportunity to learn something they might not have known otherwise, and actively seek those who can help them grow.
 
I've known a lot of Wannabes, and precious few Gonnabes.

Status: offline 		imo a"wannabe" is out to just get thier kicks anyway they can. wether male or female. they have no intention of following through on any level. I personally have seen several people on several sites using several monikers. I myself have a profile on another site.but the very same info on both. the so called "wannabes" will have several profiles on several sites and all differant. the only way to tell is look for certian comminalitites and the same picture in several profiles is kinda a giveaway.

Status: offline 		Sometimes, "wannabe" is a label attached to someone who is interested in exploring some aspect of D/s in a way that is different than the one attaching the label.  In this case, it is simply used as a way to diminish or marginalize the one whom the speaker (or writer) sees as being unfit.

Everyone starts as a beginner hence newbie.
Everyone is NOT a wannabe - usually a clueless male jerk or horny net geek HNG or even troll.
Was is and always will be a derogatory term.

In chatrooms they are disruptive little trolls.



Interesting that some folks would only feel 'wannabes' as being of the male gender.

anybody the right to judge another person as being a wannabe?

Good observation. It makes me think the real wannabes are the ones who are so insecure about their membership in the "club" that they need to act superior by calling others wannabes.

heh

Then we should never have any need for DMs, right? 
After all, it isn't like a person who is making it up as they go along without bothering to actually learn what they are doing, should be judged, right?

What could possibly go wrong?

And the newbies get the wrong information given by the wannabes,

And who is to judge which information is wrong, and which is right???


A wannabe is somebody who has little or no experience and who puts on airs as if they did, but whose knowledge of the subject is such that the sham is usually pretty quickly exposed.

Edited for clarity

And no one has the right to judge what is safe or unsafe, because wannabes are people too?

I meant exposed as in it quickly becomes clear they really do not know what they are talking about, that they are putting on airs, that they are imitating some stereotypical dom or sub (much like crappydom's outrageous original profile).

And yes, I suppose that somebody could get hurt, and as to who has the right to judge...why each and every one of us of course...however, we have no authority to enforce the judgements we pass.

Status: offline 		from a sub's point a view, and from what i have seen of the "wannabe's" is the D/M starts a conversation with u then decides within 30  seconds they own u and tell u, u HAVE to get naked on cam so they can jack off. sorry that's not the lifestyle never has never will be. a true D/M has more self control and respect for themselves and the s/s to do that.   just my opinion.

Status: offline 		My 2 cents,
Like in any other lifestyle, the "wannabe" is the person who tags along for the ride but never has any intention of actualy fully involving themselves in the lifestyle at hand. We have our share here, subs that dont really want to give anything up and Masters/Mistresses who dont really want to be in charge but get a kick out of the idea of ordering smoeone around. Those are also the people who will find out what the lifestyle is realy about and usually decide its not for them. All talk, no action, so to speak. This brillian epiphany usually comes after their first realtime meeting. Once they realize that there are others out there that are NOT all talk, it changes things.

I believe OP, that you mistook being a NEWBIE for being a WANNABE.  Everyone was a newbie at some point in their lfe, we all started somewhere.
