Where traditional male-female roles are denigrated, the need for dominance and submission is diverted from its usual and historic ways and expressed in more . . . pathological ways. "tie me up and make me lick your shoes, because I was never taught that it is pleasurable to cook you something you enjoy, and to serve it to you when you return from your work. It is similar to the idea that if children are taught that they cannot, by dint of effort, improve themselves, they will become fascinated by computer games where the proof of improvement is shown by the score at the end of each game. <br />Windy Wilsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01951254236693386401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-34978714332612768352012-09-06T13:19:14.865-04:002012-09-06T13:19:14.865-04:00@Geodkyt: I score your effort a 9 out of 10.

I have seen it suggested that the author thought the work't title was "Sperm in alium".<br /><br />Fortunately, you can find it on Youtube, or buy it porno free through Tam's Amazon link ("Tallis Scholars Spem in Alium" should do it as a search term).

It is easy to show costumes and toys visually, so any depictions of BDSM in porn are heavily focused on those items. 95% of it is mental, and is not easily shown on film.<br /><br />This leads people to believe that because toys and costumes are shown, then toys and costumes are what it's all about. <br /><br />Like shooting, it's mostly mental. That doesn't stop people from spending thousands on special gear, though.Sean D Sorrentinohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02710448105506060349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-7081150047580732962012-09-05T16:17:44.077-04:002012-09-05T16:17:44.077-04:00As I said to my then-roomie: "I just want to ...As I said to my then-roomie: "<i>I just want to have</i> one <i>hobby in my life that doesn't require a bunch of expensive paraphernalia...</i>" ;)Tamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07285540310465422476noreply@blogger.com
