I think I can safely say that such a relationship would be the antithesis of what I would be interested in.

I'm a geek! Do you think Garth Ennis is celebrating the macho hero archetype in Preacher, or using that as a framework to run a counterpoint to it just under the surface? I think it works on both levels, depending on what you bring to the work.

Misogynist, not so much. I tend to approach women's roles in society from a neo-feminist perspective, which is based on the idea that women should be free to choose the life that best suits them within the context of their abilities and circumstances.

I experience a real woman roughly 3-4 times a week on average.

Boy if that isn't the truth! Why just the other night, I was all dolled up in my French maid's outfit, and we . . . but that's a story for another time and place.

I am the sub in a D/s sexual relationship, which extends a little bit into our non-sexual emotional relationship. We are, however, equal partners. That may sound a little strange to someone not closely familiar with how D/s or BD relationships work. It's a partnership, in which both partners are fully aware of what is happening and why, and enter into it freely because it's a role that meets their sexual and emotional needs.

A true domme is just as concerned with her sub's needs and pleasures as she is her own. Manipulating someone else for your own personal benefit without concern for the other person's needs isn't being a domme, and it isn't a true D/s relationship. It's simply emotional abuse.

This is not meant as specific commentary on this specific case. I did, however, want to distinguish what is and is not a D/s relationship.
