I'm a gentleman and old fashioned in many ways. Yet obviously, being on this site, I'm also very open minded and non-traditional as well. Successful career, and it allows me to enjoy nice things in life and travel. But I'd prefer to do these things with a loving companion. My personality is strong and not submissive, but I'm seeking a female led relationship, with as close to total power exchange as we can get. I enjoy dancing, so one might say I'm looking for a dance partner, travel partner, dining companion, and in general a partner in life. A loving couple in public, but in reality I would be treated as property.
Many people discover their kink later in life, though the Internet has probably changed that somewhat for people born more recently. But not me -- I've known since I was very young (elementary school) that I prefer dominant ladies. I enjoy (and have experience with) many aspects of BDSM. For many people, it is the things like fetishes (I love a woman in black, especially leather or latex, and think women look incredible in heels). Or it may be the pain: S&M. Or bondage / cages. Yes -- all of those things have their attraction to me, but for me they are ancillary, or tools. Pain and bondage can be used as punishment or training. Sexy clothing gives a woman power over me; I'm very visual. But for me, the core is power exchange; control. And more importantly, a woman who truly enjoys being in control.
My limits? Illegal things. Children. Scat. Tickling (lol, yes). And I generally avoid having skin broken / blood.
Someone on FL recommended the Netflix original French movie, "I am not an easy man" and I'm watching it as I type. A role-reversal society story, so a new take on an old theme. For instance, the old TV series "All that glitters" (which I didn't really enjoy) and the (hard to find) series "Star Maidens" which I enjoyed much more (though it's more sexy fantasy than this movie and glitters).
