Perhaps I had hoped that this site would provide an opportunity to improve communication and help squelch stereotypes but as they say, you can lead a horse to water.

Best of luck to you.


Why should I open my mind to a consideration that is at direct odds with my personal experience? I really don't care if you embrace your brat label, as that is your business. But as long as you use it, I can assure you that there are those of us who will do a quick detour to avoid such potential contentiousness within a relationship. The very declarations of the OP and similar subsequent posts within the thread makes my point. You folks are the ones with a problem; I just spot the problem and move on.

Thank you, I wish you well too,

Those are mature perspectives which are not embraced by many so-called brats who presume the label gives them the license to be total asshats. Because of that consideration, brats such as the OP suffer discrimination.

I would argue that the term "many" is speculative. I would also argue that there are also Doms who presume their label allows them license to be asshats as well.

But I agree, one bad apple can ruin it for everyone else. Thank you for looking at the material I posted and sharing your thoughts.

Not at all; the context is my personal experience.

Perhaps you would, but it's quite beside the point here.

Why is it that the second I say I'm a brat, people run? Like, yeah I get some people don't like brats, but me personally, I'm not the type of brat that says "Make me" all the time and absolutely refuses to do what you say... I know when to not be a brat and to listen. I know when to be good. I'm not a straight up little shit that doesn't know how to be obedient. It's so frustrating when I feel I make a connection with someone and I get ghosted because I say I'm a brat... Maybe I should just lie and wait until I'm in a relationship? I don't know what to do...Any advice?

Also, before anyone tries to make assumptions, this is not about just one person... This is a continuous dilemma for me. It's really disheartening when you try to make a connection with someone and the second you say you're a brat... they either stop replying, or immediately say, "I don't deal with brats." I'm truly upset and hurt that some brats have become almost a bad thing. I'm not bad...


Here is a well reasoned and articulated reflection on precisely your concerns by SubtleHush​(sub female) in the thread titled “I am a brat and a bit of a handful”: https://thecage.co/phpBB/posting.php?mode=quote&p=41690

You only consider it "well reasoned and articulate" because it aligns with your views. Opinions are very different from facts.

The reason I chose to share the educational materials above is because they are neutral and highlight points on both sides.
