I really need to put an email address in the "About" page, don't I? I'll take a look, and pass the information on to Antonio and see what he says I can/should do! Thanks for stopping by, thanks for sharing, I can't wait to check it out. ~Chloe Hi Vivian,

I wanted to email you, but didn't see an email address listed, so PLEASE forgive me for posting this to comments. Didn't know how else to reach you and didn't want to pass you by, either, and figured since comments were moderated, it would be okay. I wanted to let you know that Variant Books is publishing the first-ever Disciplined Feminist spanking/DD book, called "How to Get the Spanking You Want: The Complete Guide to Asking for It, Getting It and Making It Better." So that as many women (and men!) have access to this information as possible, I'm reaching to other women in the community for help in spreading the information about this new resource. Would you be interested in sharing this resource with your readers? You can get more info at www.HowToGetASpanking.com. Sincerest apologies again for posting this to comments -- no offense intended!

That was not my intent, and I doubt it was the intent of anyone else commenting to say "I agree" or "Well, I do have these rituals, but for the most part..." If I say "I viciously hate chocolate, and seriously, smelling it makes me want to vomit," I can <strong>promise </strong>you I'm not making a judgment of people who enjoy chocolate. I'm telling you what I think about it, how it makes me feel, and that's all.

What a lot of judgement for rituals. Since i *do* have rituals and rules and enjoy having them, in fact *need* them....i feel judged myself. Heck, that's cool, whatever floats your boat but just....wow...at the harshness here, the patronizing, condescending attitudes for those different than you are, who have different needs in their relationships. Just....wow. A reminder of why i had made the choice to stay away from blogs for a while, and a splash of cold water to keep me away even longer. Nice, and have a good day, y'all. Wow. What a lot of judgement for rituals.

(I have a panties rule also, but it's flexible and it's not really a big deal - I like the rule anyway!) Yeah... I think I'm going to actually have to post a bit on the "do what works" issue, 'cause my head is overflowing! :) *nods*
