domiguy, if I am understanding you correctly, you are equating the term "scene" with public play, and that is wrong. In its purest definition, a scene is like the outline of a book. It gives both people an idea of where the event is going to go, but leaves out the meat, so there is room for some surprises. It can be public or private. Scenes are used more by Doms/subs than Masters/slaves, because the former is usually (please note I said usually) a more casual relationship. You get together for the evening and talk out how that night is generally going to go. Beginners are also more comfortable with this format, as it can calm some of their fears about what they can expect. I personally don't like scenes myself, because I find them stilted. My style is very fluid, likely to change direction at any moment as I observe the one under me. But then, I never had a D/s relationship with someone I didn't already know pretty well, so I knew what they were going to like and what would be a turnoff for them. And, of course, if I misjudged, they always had their safe word. And they knew me and trusted me to know what I was doing. You also seem to get the idea that scenes are "essentially all for show". That is not true either, although it can be. I have seen some scenes that were very intense, and I DO mean very. Again, it is up to the people involved. One thing I have learned from a thread of a few weeks ago is how many people are insulted by the word "play". For me, there is no conflict between playing and being serious at the same time. But since so many others seem to have such a big problem with it, I have chosen to ban that word from my BDSM vocabulary. Namaste, Sir Dominic
