I have always been a little
different in respect to being more prone to this lifestyle than most I suppose.
When I was little, I always wanted to be the one bossed around, the little
sister, student, child, etc. Never the mother. LoL, well, it was a self fulfilling
prophecy I suppose that I should grow up to want those same things in adulthood.
I remember wanting to be spanked, even at a very young age by other children,
I even remember playing those type of games with my little friends, so I guess
I wasn't the only odd one. As I grew up I grew to feel guilty about those
feelings and fantasies.. I don't believe I've had a fantasy that didn't involve
some sort of s&m overtone. I would write romance novels, and always there
would be the bound girl, the kidnapped girl, the controlled girl, the spanked
girl. It wasn't until I found a writing group on MSN that I was able to open
up to a few people about what I considered to be a very strange obsession.
I still think it is different, but I have learned to live with it, to even
be happy with it. Being a part of the Houston bd community really helped me
to open up and learn that there were many like me and that as some people
love to cook and sew, or ride motorcycles, or play football, I wanted to play
with flogs, and paddles, etc. I have been a member of online bd groups for
7 years, and HPEP for 5 years, and HOH for 3 years. I have had several Dominants,
and Masters but haven't quite reached that spiritual level that I think you
need to be to give someone complete submission, but I am working on it. I
have attended many events, and met some great people in this lifestyle, and
I can't wait to meet more.

I have learned many things, from many people but the one thing that I've found
missing, is that I've let my creative side down somewhat by not pursuing my
lifelong dream of writing and more recently photography, and my need for culture,
but to belong to a group that is vanilla goes against who I am, it is hard
to move back and forth, and I never quite feel like I fit in, so I came up
with the idea of SCANDAL, and with Sir Malo's help, we started it. I can't
wait to see all the erotica and bd art and photography and writings, and anything
else we can come up relating to the arts and bd. I'm hoping to incorporate
other creative arts into the group as well, but we can get a feel for what
we all want to get out of this, and go from there. I will enjoy just being
around people that are creative and spirited.

I have been active in the BDSM community since the mid nineties, and have
been both a student and teacher in this lifestyle. I've facilitated EROS meetings
on topics including"Single in the Scene, Sensual Massage, and a Screw
the Roses Bondage dress workshop. I organized Houstons first CPR Class
for kinky people with the American Heart association certification cards back
in August of 1999. I organized and facilitated "Idle Hands are the Dominant's
Workshop at boys Training Camp in Dallas in May of 2000.Most recently I did a workshop for Open Door Singles Mingle on "Making Quality Connections in Lifestyle."The early SCANDAL meetings were often held in my former home in Bellaire and we had some neat topics and people contribute. I tend to lean toward Old Leather values but I am not all about protocol, just common awareness and resepct. Additionally I've
hosted this web site vanilla-not.com in one form or another since 1997. I
enjoy D/s with a focus on the mind body spirit connection.
My Art
I'm not entirely sure I consider my self an artisté, but I do enjoy
the things this lifetyle seems to encurage and inspire in people. I have had
a successful career in video production and writing, and currently I am developing
skills and a company that focus on web design and hosting. I dabble in photography
and now I am in the world of digital photography and image restoration.
I guess we are never
too old to learn. I have contributed some of my favorite photographer links
to the yahoo page for this group and I hope other folks will share their favorite
links there as well. I look forward to watching this endeavor grow, I was very excited to put together a small protfolio of my erotic photography for the recent visit of Barbara Nitke. I got some good pointers and feedback and saw some other great local talent at that workshop.I am currently
working on a book about D/s. (or so I have been saying for some time.) My most recent articles in lifestyle are published on A D/s Web Center. So whatever you do..body art, sculpture, dungeon furniture,
creative writing, jewelry, clothing or more... if you create, or adore those
who do.... welcome aboard.

i have been in this lifestyle since 1997 and i find the more i learn,the
more there is to learn. However, my journey began years and years
ago, probably as a nine year old who discovered my older brother's stack
of porn. There were stories, dozens of them that i read over and over again
under my blanket with a penlight. The ones i read the most always had some
element of bdsm i now realize: a young girl seduced and then strapped by
the headmaster; a boy stripped bare in the wood, limbs tied to the trees,
and teased mercilessly by an older girl; and yes even the one about a woman's
love affair with her horse.
Adolescence for me brought its usual anguish, but i think i suffered more
than my friends did, as i could never quite figure out what was
"wrong" with me. Why, the attention of several "cool"
boys was never enough. Why i preferred my secret relationship with a guy
seven years my senior over guys like my friends dated. i would rather spend
hours watching my "daddy" sleep, or cleaning his room whilst he
did, than go to the movies or to Mickey Ds. And when he awoke to slap me
around for some infraction of his rules, my heart would sing. After several
years of escalating violence, i realized i had to get away. i convinced
myself that i was cured, i no longer needed to serve a man, the pain i craved
was wrong. After several failed relationships, and then the end of my nine-year
vanilla marriage, i finally found the courage to pursue my submissiveness.
Initially, i read anything and everything i could get my hands on that related
to BDSM. i learned that there was a safe and sane way to fulfill my heart's
desire. i've just made my 5 year anniversary of being in the scene. i find
that i am still reading and exploring and learning everyday. In 1999, i
had the pleasure of co-founding Austin subCulture, a group for subs,slaves,
bottoms and switches. i served on the GWNN board in 2000, and have
traveled to a few quality events including boys Training Camp 3 in
April 2001, and Thunder in the Mountains 2001. i hope to continue
my journey by participating in more lifestyle events. i truly treasure the
friendships i've formed over the years. i am most interested in the psychological
aspects of BDSM, however, i am somewhat of a slut for the cane, flogger,
crop, and particularly Sir's hand. And to demonstrate just how much one's
kink evolves, i am falling in love with needles! Thank You Sir!

i love to write...lol...you probably can tell from this lengthy bio! i haven't
been good about writing for pleasure lately. i drown in paperwork at my
job and my part time gig, therefore its hard for me to get motivated to
write anymore than i *have to*. but you know, i really do *have to* write
for pleasure. it is how i best express myself. it calms me and soothes my
soul. thank Yyou poetprincessa and Sir for starting this group. i am sure
that i'll be inspired by the rest of Yyou SCANDALous folk. i look forward
to meeting Yyou all. be well, play safe.

My bio - What really gets my creative juices flowing? Writing. Erotica.
Porn. Smut. Call it what you will. I am not overly familiar with the "lifestyle"
although I have done a great deal of reading, talking to other people, etc.
I have attended a couple of HPEP meetings but
did not really find it as uplifting an experience as I would have expected.
I have written a few BDSM stories, however, since I have
no personal experience, I'm not sure they ring true. I have been published
online, nothing in print yet.

Domme? sub? I have no idea. A lusty interest in sex in general – definitely. Writing, reading, watching, works of art, anything and everything. I'm most interested in meeting other people who share these interests and may be willing to tolerate someone in search of basic knowledge. Research you know. So much research. :)
