Miss Manners (yeah, you can read that two ways) Rudeness online in the kink community.


I find myself shaking my head these days. A lot and often. Maybe I'm more exposed people online because I'm alone at home these days, and see the things I've missed as a slammed--the-wall busy person. Additionally, I'm raw, and I'm salty, and so with that in mind, please either change the page, or tread lightly through these words. Please.

I was raised be cordial people. respect their feelings, (almost) above all. Some call it Southern gentility. My parents called it having good manners.
In one case, in a chatroom that I enjoy visiting, a "Dom" showed total disregard for another's interest or fetish. Mr know it all was quick to put it down, to interject his "superior" thoughts, and to make an effort to make the other person feel "small." Fortunately, there were other people in the room who showed interest in the kink, and seeing that person equally. We are all here because we have "something." As was said in a posting I will always cherish, "One sky covers us all equally."

In another moment, one who has had (admittedly) personal issues, uses those as excuses to be rude. And hurtful. Excuses upon excuses. In the next breath, expects "please forgive my mistake" to exonerate, and "move on." So wrapped up in one's self, that common courtesies are tossed out the window, because "one is a special case." Says things and backtracks. Hurtful.

in a society in which we all have interests, likes, kinks, flaws, and misgivings about ourselves, wouldn't it be best to...especially in these times...be more considerate of others? If not considerate, maybe just mannerly?
"Please, thank you, be right back, I'll see you later" are all expressions of..."you're important to me." I work with people who do that in a more formal way in the work environment, but they as leaders, recognize the importance of "smoothing the way" for others.

One of my bids online told me this once. "Being heroic, by definition, is helping others." The others in the chat room that evening were heroic.
Be mannerly, please.
Be someone's hero.

Its too bad that that topic needs to be talked about, it seems like there are those that gain their pleasure from making others life as miserable as their own. I just choose to let what they say fall on deaf ears, or is that blind eyes here.

There seems to be a lot of wannabees on here that think dominance means being rude and disrespectful
And a lot of ignorant people in society anymore

At last, a lady with the gumption to come out and say something. Manners, decorum, politeness, courtesy...ALL have been thrown out in the mad rush for quick-fix-kinky-sex. If it wasn't for people like you *bows* and U/us Old School old timers this place would soon become just another tinder/craigslist pick-up joint.
Thank you for the post.

I could not agree more with your words. Alittle kindness and respect and kind words can be a wonderful treatment of others.

Dominance is a perspective or unique posture of making love.
