The lifestyle vibe of playing in a house or apartment is really a big deal for me

I never really thought of it this way until now. but when i first started doing this 20 years ago the playspaces were always hidden. Down a dark hallway in a dark room etc. it was kind of seedy. Somtimes that could be good but i wanted this to be part of my life.

These non dungeon scenes normalize the lifestyle for me.

Now its more about just 2 people connecting. Or 3 people if thats what you are into 😄.

You must have been an absolute blast to session with. I remember seeing your ads in magazines and thinking how I would love to have a session with you. Basically you were hot!!!! I was single at the time too but too scared and locked into my own life at the time to travel to Rhode Island where I think you were. Maybe Ohio? Definitely one of the things I look back on and regret my inaction.

I’m not sure if I have a favorite. The first Domme I saw on a regular basis sessioned out of her apartment in a 3 flat in a quiet residential neighbourhood. I’d park a couple blocks away, call from a pay phone and walk up. She had some equipment which was enough for me. I’ve had great sessions in all kinds of different spaces. The thing for me is I’m
always worried about being recognised so anywhere I don’t see people coming and going is good.

Traditional dungeon for me!

Thank you. You still owe me a phone call. We didn't get your latest adventures on the last one. :-)

What is your idea of a traditional dungeon? I ask because I've seen so many. Some of them have been wide open spaces and spectacular. Others have been theme houses that was like stepping into a magical world. Some of been a receptionist in the front with a row of small "Dungeon rooms," and had the feel of being in an hourly no tell motel.

I've been lucky enough to session with a couple! Most are sessioning out of more typical dungeon-like settings, alas

I guess the dedicated rooms to be specific. Only been to one house and didn't like the vibe. I prefer not to mingle with many others beyond who I have come to see. Plus there's enough stories about houses in general (upselling, etc.) and the one time I was there I experienced exactly that. I'm happy to pay fairly, but I don't like that tactic at all.

Dommes who have a dedicated, room with quality (sturdy) equipment are what I have found most to my liking. The authenticity is important. You can tell cheapness right away. Smaller and intimate is my preference. Just enough room necessary to do whatever activity you're doing. I also think private dungeons tend to be cleaner from what I've experienced.

Probably the last truly memorable dungeon I ever visited was Empress Dominique's in Jersey City during the '98 to 2000 time frame. It was a whole process to get there. Drive to NJ from NYC and make a quick right hand turn off the Holland Tunnel. Either pick up the Empress at her home or meet her there. (She shared the space with another Mistress and it was always just the Empress and me there.) It was in an old warehouse. It consisted of a small waiting room, a bathroom and a large playspace with a cross, benches, etc. for bondage, various equipment, etc. a very theatrical space. A perfect stage for the Empress. And I did serve the Empress at her apartment too which was great since it was more lifestyle and intimate.
