Does this lifestyle go way beyond than just a husband and wife wanting to take a trip to a sex store, take some stuff home, and experiment on their own. Figured kink was more of a personal thing without any outside involvement. ( I could be wrong)
To be honest, a lot of people I meet in sci-fi, though we both love the genres and stuff, I don't think I'd run in line with people with nose ring piercings, sleeve tats, and rocker hair that I keeps seeing. Some are even swingers (Mate swapping) via the after-after parties at the cons.
I know this married couple that are comic shop owners. One of them has this disturbing art called "Crucifairies". Although, I'm not a hardcore religious person, I did grow up Catholic..just the term, although witty, is disturbing in context. I wouldn't mind breaking bread with them though. They are just more outer circle friends.  Sorry to be a fuddy dud...just makes me cringe. Some looked half-baked at these events..I'm not 420 friendly.
So, yeah I'm a nerdy square. lol
I dunno, kink vs. lurking at grocery stores? How is it they say, two different sides of the same coin (not sure if that's a good analogy). lol However, the earlier involves an awareness between both parties. The lurking at stores...not so much. (this is just speculative talk). |
So the risk I run here in talking about kink stuff is like if you get some Star Trek enthusiast going about the minutia of various episodes and plots and how the novels fit in and... Like I could go on and on, and a lot of folks here would hate me for it. So I have to watch it. I'm just too darn happy about the whole thing, it's brought a whole world of enjoyment into my life and I'm part of the management of a local private membership club/dungeon venue. It is also how my beloved geeky older man and I met and fell in love. So.
Yes there is far more to it than what goes on behind closed doors with a couple who stopped at an adult store and is trying to spice things up. Way, way more. I'll be at a convention for this stuff with all day classes all weekend and parties every night, and a good 1,000 people in attendance here in about 2 weeks. It's kind of a big deal to kind of a lot of people...though "a lot" still being very much a minority in terms proportionate to society at large.
And no, I'm not into swapping or swinging. That's most def not my thing. Got a lot of friends who are, but I'm not.
Beyond this, I have to say...pm me if you want to know. Because I'm not trying to upset people.
And my point was not particular to THIS anyhow, it was just that whatever you're into, there is a good chance that somewhere there's a group of people getting together to do it or at least to talk about it, and now we've got the internet to find out who, where, and when that is happening. Social networking is a great way to seek a partner, in my opinion, and in the meantime, you're having fun. Also, when you are in your element enjoying whatever it is you enjoy, you're probably more relaxed, more confident, and therefore more appealing to others.
