It has been a year and a half since the beginning of the pandemic. Few expected it to last that long and the changes it brought to be so big, including in BDSM. There is a saying , it is only the temporary that lasts.

It is time to take stock of the changes this brought to our lives, and see what has changed. There has been a lot of talk about session prices, but I am more interested in the qualitative changes.

For subs:

- Do you session as much as you used to?
- Is it as easy to find a mistress?
- Do you have as much choices?
- Do you have to wait more until you get a session?
- Have you returned to the same mistress or have there been changes?

For mistresses:

- Do you have fewer or more sessions compared to pre pandemic?
- Is it more difficult to book a space for a session?
- Have you reconnected to most of your old partners? How easy or difficult is it to find new ones?
- Has there been a change in the profile of people you meet? More singles, fewer out of towners?
- Have there been changes in your social profile that will last?

We all have our individual experiences but it is interesting to understand where things are going for most. In my case the work from home had a big impact, reducing my mobility.

No

Same Mistresses

I do not see any local Dommes here in Detroit, so I have always been dependent on traveling to see Dommes or Dommes touring through here. Both situations are way down so my sessioning is as well.

- Do you session as much as you used to?

Less, due to lack of business travel and lack of traveling dommes.

- Is it as easy to find a mistress?

Yes and no. Some quality players have clearly communicated their availability and protocol. However, a good number have just disappeared.

- Do you have as much choices?

No, fewer choices.

- Do you have to wait more until you get a session?

Slightly, but good planning solves that problem.


- Have you returned to the same mistress or have there been changes?

No changes. I'm a slut and play around.

Do you have fewer or more sessions compared to pre pandemic?

During the pandemic I relocated to Pensacola Fl. I'm doing more sessions in Florida, than I was in Colorado.

Is it more difficult to book a space for a session?

No, I have my own Dungeon.

Have you reconnected to most of your old partners? How easy or difficult is it to find new ones?

Yes, I recently traveled to Denver and reconnected with my subs there. I'm having no problem staying busy.

Has there been a change in the profile of people you meet? More singles, fewer out of towners?

No, I see a steady stream of locals, and tourists.


Have there been changes in your social profile that will last?

I've not changed my social profile, other than to reflect my relocation to FL. My session rates are unchanged. No price gouging here.

1. While things have picked up, I still am not at pre-pandemic levels.
2. Thankfully, I have my own dungeon so I haven't had to worry about that.
3. While I've reconnected with many, I haven't reconnected with everyone. Some have expressed a desire to play but there are barriers that have prevented them. New players are asking but many are not following through. I think people are restless and trying to release that by making contact, even if they have no intention of sessioning.
4. I have not noticed any unusual type of people. Just the typical range of players.
5. I'm not sure what you mean by "change in your social profile that will last". If you mean in the activities I offer, I'm putting a hold on anything that's high-risk to transmission, such as spitting. As soon as I think it's safe to do so again I will resume anything currently on hold.

- Do you have fewer or more sessions compared to pre pandemic?
I am doing a fewer number of sessions but the average session is longer. I am also doing more online work, so I am actually busier that pre-pandemic.

- Is it more difficult to book a space for a session?
I session at Atlanta Dungeon and we have never "closed" so that is not an issue. I have not resumed touring. Quite frankly I am too busy in Atlanta to even consider it at the moment.

- Have you reconnected to most of your old partners? How easy or difficult is it to find new ones?
I have reconnected with a lot of people - probably most of My regulars - several from the distant past. It's as if the pandemic has spurred them to session again. It's actually kind of weird.


- Has there been a change in the profile of people you meet? More singles, fewer out of towners?
During the early stages of the pandemic I saw a lot more younger clients and couples. This has evened out now. At first I saw mainly locals. Now the regional people (within driving distance) have returned. I am still not seeing as many fly in clients, but that is picking up too.

- Have there been changes in your social profile that will last? Not sure what you mean by this. I will continue doing distance training, which I did very little of pre-pandemic. I find that it makes for a nice variety and keeps things interesting in conjunction with in person sessions.
