Dear Ms. Rey: I am past that point in my life where these things make much of a difference to me. In my S & M world humiliation has never been an objective. On the more frivolous side I would defer an answer until I listen to 2 songs of the past to refresh my perspective on different times and cultures. First, Sixteen Tons by Tennessee Ernie Ford and, Second, Some Girls by The Rolling Stones. Dannyboy

Dear Ms. Rey: I cannot read or write Japanese characters. I can't show this to my Japanese daughter or Japanese friends. I no longer have any Japanese Mistresses. So please, translate this and Ms. Von Dietz's writings. Arrigato gozaimas. Dannyboysan

Dear Ms. Rey: I sessioned at different times with two Japanese Mistresses who were shibari experts. One memory has one of those Mistresses tying up a Chinese Mistress and securing her to a spanking bench. I watched with joy as she spanked her victim long and hard. Of course my joy was short-lived as I was next to be placed in bondage and subject to the vengeance of them both. I would describe shibari as almost an art form. I know of the connection with the Mistress as she practices her discipline (of shibari.) I wish you great success. Dannyboy

Dear Ms. Rey: I wrote a reply a couple of days ago but lost internet connection and the work I did. Your post reminded me of tv series I saw in which a royal marriage had the wedding night witnessed much as the description of the "hard on" trial. Ms. Katz pointed that out aptly in her most recent post. I am reminded of something I first heard of in a high school music class ages ago. It had to do with a time when the lord of the land had the right to deflower any virgin on her wedding night before the husband had his turn. It was called "droit du seigneur" or jus primae noctis. It was also called prima nocta. So the privileged class always had its privileges. It still does today. Dannyboy

The very best place to confront your fears is the Fortress. Take the first step. Dannyboy

JAG: I have ancient memories of doing it on the kitchen table - not upstairs and not exactly downstairs. Dannyboy

Dear Ms. Kang: It was an unbearably long time. It was like withdrawal cold turkey. Looks nice though. Dannyboy

Adam: She travels to Ohio on occasion. Maybe she poses as a man in Ohio. One can't be too careful nowadays. I'm not paranoid. LOL. Dear Ms. Kang: I appreciate your courtesy and your honesty. Dannyboy

I haven't ever encountered hypnotism in a session nor have I ever known a Mistress with that particular expertise. The closest I've ever come to it was a girlfriend who saw a hypnotist to help her quit smoking. She gave up after 2 or 3 sessions. My understanding is that actual hypnosis is not as depicted on television or in movies. Whatever you anticipate an experience with hypnotism would be like, might be completely different. Have you thought about why this is so important to you? Dannyboy

Adam: I aslo have a good friend who is a retired RN. I wonder is she is the same one as your good friend. It would be a laughable coincidence although it would be problematic should that actually be the case. Perhaps I am a bit paranoid but in my life reality has sometimes been stranger than anything I might have imagined. Dannyboy

Years ago I gave Ms. Kang a Gwen Stefani CD. Never fantasized her as a Mistress though. Dannyboy

I never purchased toys anywhere else but in Manhattan. Even when I lived in Brooklyn and had many experiences there I had imported everything from the Island Manhattan. The only Babes location I ever patronized was the Soho location. I truly have little interest in the habits of others and great interest in my own habits and that of the Ladies who like to spend naughty time with me. Dannyboy

Thank you for sharing the positive results with us. I used to spend much time at the beach, mostly Brighton Beach in Brooklyn, and work on a tan. Not much information about skin cancer then. So I had my brush with skin cancer and thankful it wasn't the bad kind. We know what to do now. Dannyboy

Lonewolf: Wow. You have another challenge in front of you and you set your goal and rewards at the gates of the Fortress. I salute you. Dannyboy

Adam: Thank you for posting about your circumstances. I seemed to notice your absence with the understanding that all of the regular posters disappear from time to time, myself included. Of course I am curious about the nitty gritty details of your medical condition and have already speculated based on your narrative. Your privacy is paramount so please don't worry about my curiosity. More important is that you are on the road to recovery and very eager to get back to the place where all dreams can come true. Please be careful and listen to your body. Getting back to normal may take more time than you think but having the Fortress as a goal can't be a bad thing. In the meantime please keep us posted on your progress. Dannyboy
