I read a forum post recently which I have NOT been able to forget..
This individual, whom I will NOT call out by name, expressed that anyone listing 'CHILDREN' in their limits is, in THEIR opinion, NOT a 'DOM' type to be taken seriously, thus, by their own wording, a 'wannabe'.. THIS person, to MY present knowledge, HAS no children, or if they DO, would not ever consider offering them as 'offerings' to a prospective 'dom' type.. I commend them for their morals and stance in the matter, but DO want to point out that not EVERY person has their moral 'code', per se.. I only want to point out though YOU may not consider such an offering, there ARE those that use this prospect to entice OTHER like minded individuals to respond to them..
SOME out here having been around QUITE a while, have HAD such offerings made in the past, and ONLY want to ensure such offerings are NOT made in the present or FUTURE.. JUST because it is listed as a limit, doesn't detract from their 'status', and if YOU see it as such, that is YOUR right.. NO judgements on YOUR part, because YOU have NOT made such an offering.. Just be aware that just because YOU won't make such an offer, doesn't mean OTHERS won't.. So SOME of U/us, and if I am wrong here, I apologize, or in fact MOST of U/us that list children as a HARD limit, have HAD others that have made such an offer in the past.. AND it has happened FAR too many times so W/we have chosen to list it as a hard limit to ensure others do not approach U/us with said offers,,
I DO hope this might open eyes to some that detract from the value of someone that has received such offers in the past, here, or otherwise, so that the person feels the nevessity to POST such things as a 'limit' T/they are not willing to even consider..
