It assured me that Liz knew what she was talking of and though she was imaginative, she would not invent tasks and things out of thin air just because they seemed fat, disregarding if they were possible and sane.

Liz returned to the forum this week. We're still close friends but both my online D/s relation to her and her own subbie/switch relation to her (ex-)bf have ended.
That's awesome. I'm glad that you found such a great Mistress.

I just get prickly about expectations being put on us women that aren't on men. If anything, I've heard people say that having a submissive side makes a guy less respectable as a Dom, so it seems unfair to say that a Domme has to have sub experience.
