Many here are absolute monogamists toward kinky relationship. Some are even prone to become morality cops. I'm going to set them aside for now, accepting as valid their feelings, (if not their occasional scoldings).
Others are various degrees of lenient regarding multiple arrangements. It is this part of the population which has my attention here.
Most commonly this seems to involve a Dom who might enjoy two (or more?) subs, and quite often works to keep them apart, unaware of each other. Then there seems to be a small and generally quiet group into poly D/s of one sort or another. I set these in my mind as opposite poles.
But what lies in between, in the shadows?
Might there be other successful arrangements where the grey zone this side of openly poly might function, and might those varietions manage to be successful?
I'm thinking of a possible triangular hookup, maybe two subs serving the same Dom/me, not together, but in contact with each other, maybe exchanging views as friends independent of the Dominant? What would such a dynamic be like? Would they want to gang up on their Dom, or trade experiences in a sort of mutually supporting way?
Or might a sub, maybe one on line, want help using impact tools, or wax, or bondage, where another set of hands is essential? Can that sort of Dom's helper (would you call him/her a 'Domlet'?) fit in to expand sensations for the sub? Or would the helper become a sort of hands on coach to either a Dom or a sub?
There are probably other permutations floating around here under the radar. Doesn't our world offer endless fascination!
I'd enjoy hearing from anyone with experience at one of these alternate arrangements, and how it seemed to work..Thanks!
