Miss Mei Chui

Thank You, Miss Mei. I am afraid i can't say anything useful, being hardly more than a schoolgirl. But i enjoyed you sharing.

I agree. There seems to be quite a trend towards the 24/7 type of life. I'm not sure how you contrast 24/7 with TPE, but for all intents I'll assume you mean them as being almost the same.

I think the reasons for TPE are, in fact, purely fantastical. Sure, I love the notion of a 24/7 lifestyle (particularly since I'm a dom ;] ) but when my fantasies are put aside, and the unfortunate logical part takes over, I find myself seeing this as almost an impossibility.

I feel that the way that I prefer to handle this imbalance of "part time d/s" (I call it an imbalance because what is submission but in the fullest extent?) is by telling the submissive that I want her to lead her life in the way she would normally lead it. This is helpful as to not hinder family meetings, work obligations and etc, while still maintaining that notion of "This is what I've told you to do" as it is a command that she act normally outside the household.
