Years ago I was on a public mailing list. I had a really big mouth and I spouted off about a lot of shit I didn’t understand. I came out of my family environment at 18 feeling like I had been a real and true adult for at least six years. I had opted in to sex six years previously. I started working when I was 15. That sort of stuff. So by the time I came and found the bdsm community… well that was interesting.

There were a couple of individual people from the community at that point in time who weren’t fond of me. If I am even vaguely self aggrandizing, I was the darling.
