More M/s in Public
Reading yet another fet post about being public with M/s the conversation quickly went downhill talking about sex in stores and obvious loud secreting orgasms in public. The original post/question very clearly stated that they were asking about M/s and nothing illegal. Sex in public is illegal therefore not the type of thing they were asking about.
Someone asked why is it that all these conversations seem to go straight for public sex and leashes? I think that's a damned good question. When I think about things that display M/s publically I think of things like master ordering for slave (or vice versa) slave waiting to eat until after getting permission, slave walking beside, behind in front of master, master being deferred to by slave. in other words my musings don't go right down sex alley.
What is with the hating on leashes anyway. While I have no desire to be walked on one other than a quick glance I don't give a hoot when I see others rolling like that.
Now there is a difference between illegal and tacky and frankly while I might not appreciate tacky I'm not giving anyone not under my jurisdiction grief about it. People define tacky differently so where I might be perfectly ok seeing couples french kiss or exchange booty pats, others might find that same behavior the height of tackiness. When it comes to M/s type protocols done in public I think you have to find your tacky comfort level about what you do. Illegal acts are off the table but even if someone else doesn't appreciate me wearing a collar or whatever I'm not letting that dictate my behavior.
People throw out common decency as if standards of decency are actually common. I've seen behavior that I find highly intolerable that have nothing to do with sex or M/s roles, public nose picking, uggg, blowing noses in restaurants, crotch scratching outside of the bathroom... I guess my point is there is always going to be something no matter what that is disagreed upon as fit for the public. I don't think I need to take any special precautions or be extra vigilant to not offend someone because it's going to happen no matter what. That doesn't mean I go out of my way to be offensive either. The middle ground seems to be nonexistent when these discussions come up, either you make sure nothing you do looks like it could remotely be power exchange related or you're having orgies in the streets. It makes no sense to me.
