61 topping with subspace , and masochists , it ’ s very important . Sugar levels drop , and all the vulnerability and being out of their natural comfort zone can impact the person when it ’ s over , so making sure they are ok and they get what they need is a good way to practice , I feel .
PD : Why do you think people are drawn to BDSM ?
Well , I can only go on my own experiences , so I guess it ’ s because it ’ s a place to explore different types of stimulation , and connecting with other humans without sex ; also to see pleasure that you ’ ve created in another and to experience it on the receiving end is out of this world . It ’ s also a way for the power exchange to be explored , opening up trust and vulnerability ; it can be very therapeutic to some .
PD : Is there anything that You haven ’ t done within the BDSM world that You wish to ?
I haven ’ t caned someone while their arms are in a bar suspension like a spreader bar for their wrists , and it ’ s pulled up so their feet are barely touching the floor . I would love to cane them and watch them wriggle !
PD : How do You feel about the way that Pro-Dommes and BDSM in general get portrayed in the media ?
It makes me sad to some extent , as I think this beautiful dark world gets blurred with sex a lot from the outside world , where Pro-Dommes are all seen as mean and sadistic , when in reality it can be very nurturing and innocent . But now I think it ’ s getting more main stream and understood a little but more . I ’ m hoping that people will become more open-minded to it as a part of everyday society , even if it ’ s not their bag .
PD : Do You consider Yourself as being a Dominatrix in all aspects of your life or do You separate this from a more “ vanilla ” life ?
I wouldn ’ t say I ’ m a lifestyle Domme where I have an entourage of slaves around me , but I don ’ t really have too much of a vanilla lifestyle . I ’ d say I ’ m more of a kinkster than a full-on Dominatrix . My work consumes me so I guess I ’ m like this most of the time , online and in person .
