Thank you all for your very diverse replies.

Talk--please. While I enjoy the physical aspects of BDSM, I probably enjoy the mental aspect more. Get into my mind, verbally abuse me, remind me of my place in YOUR world, mental abuse, teasing me, taunting, etc.

I can still remember some of the most fun moments I have had in previous sessions, and most are remembering something she said to me.

Interesting - and different - topic. Thanks for posting.

P.S. No F bombs. Just my opinion, but I do not care for foul-mouthed women. It's a turn off.

A healthy self confidence is helpful in any profession. But there is probably no other profession where it is as important as in yours.



That's funny that you have that impression. It is often Europeans who think that Americans are superficial.
But I attribute that rather to the fact that Americans generally are friendlier than Europeans (particularly in the South). Europeans expect that if somebody is friendly, that they are genuinely interested in them.
A European new to the US easily takes the question "How do you do?" literally.

In terms of self-confidence of women in Europe vs. the US, it may just be that the situation in the US is more challenging for women. In the US it is almost politically incorrect to say that there are differences between men and women, like denying this fact would make everybody equal. Also, pretending that the looks don't matter is just not genuine.
All this may solve some problems, but it may create others.
It's difficult to be equal but different.
