The FetLife social network
While browsing my favourite blogs, I found a mention of FetLife, a new social network for, well, kinky folks.
Try thinking of Facebook or MySpace, except with more kink and chains. It looks promising. It’s easy to find people in your basic geographic area, which would be great for forming friendships or relationships, and the rapidly growing group areas look like they’re turning into mini-forums. Could be a lot of fun.
Anyway, feel free to check out my profile and add me as a friend.

social submission, websites
BBC News covers Britain's S&M scene
Our little pastime has attracted sudden interest in the UK. All it takes is for one micro-celebrity to be caught in a little paid submission, and suddenly everyone’s interested in what we do.
The article’s enough to make one laugh out loud, though:
“Most clients I see are submissive - they want me to be in control,” she says. “When a client walks through the door I will have them strip and kneel on the floor in front of me - they will not even question that.”
What follows depends on what has been previously agreed, but Faith is adamant that she offers not just the indulgence of a fantasy, but therapy that helps those who are distressed by their fetish - or disappointed when the reality of their fantasy fails to live up to expectations.
Now, perhaps I’m biased, because I’m very much a relationship-based submissive, and the idea of going to see a pro-domme just does not appeal, but this seems a rather narrow view of a much more complicated subject…
To be fair, the article goes into more depth later on: Read more…

This is a chastening post. A blog goes quiet, and then a sudden, final post explaining that the femdom relationship has broken up.
I wonder how common this is?
I wonder how many of the blog that start full of excitement and enthusiasm and abruptly end are little virtual graveyards of attempts to build a femdom relationship? Their lack of updates a mute testimony to human dynamics and the fact that an unconventional power exchange is too much for some people.
Something to think about.

Here’s an interesting new blog: Honest Power. The author is a submissive guy who is trying to understand, or maybe explore, the role of power in human relationships.
The most recent post really caught my attention, wherein he looks at the links between childhood bullying and submissive tendencies:
I can only speak for myself. I was the victim of bullying until late in high school and, true to form, I discovered many years later an intense desire to submit to women sexually. I even married something of a former popular “mean girl” years before I really noticed my sexually submissive nature. Lucky for me she was more popular than mean.
Wow. That could very well have been me writing…

Well, this looks like a fun read, doesn’t it?
Oh, and there’s an earlier volume, too. And here’s the editor reading from it:
