Ah the old days. My first session was in 1999 i was 21 years old so not sure That makes me qualified to post on this thread or not. But I remember looking through maxfisch everybday waiting for new ads to be posted. I found some of my dommes through ads in the back of local independent newspapers.

You are right leather was in and it seems like the menu of fetishes was limited to spanking, whipping, getting tied up. I thought i was extreme when i had to go in and explain that i wasnt in to that but would they be willing to kick me in the balls and make fun of me for an hour straight even if it wasnt “on the menu”.

It feels like the internet has escalated domination rather quickly and man has the scene changed. Its been good for me as it has evolved to my tastes. But i get the nostalgia.

One nice change is that i no longer feel like im alone like i did back then. Theres a lot of people as kinky as me and their easy to find.

Welcome to the board.
