A great traditional Mistress would also have these qualities:

Highly experienced

Excellent communication skills
A sense of humor
High degree of confidence

For me, these and the traits previously mentioned are the qualities of a great traditional Mistress.


I agree. But I forgot "a sense of humor." Of course! Some of the best sessions I've had with Mistresses I've been a regular with always had a sense of humor - before and after the session as well as during.
