I knew I had a calling and it has become more apparent as I happily stay where I am. The scene is constantly being entered by a new level of enthusiasts. Since this is an adult recreational community the rules are not always discussed in your local sexuality classes. There are rules of safety and rights for submissive and dominants. Trust, communication and respect reign or you are out.
Word travels fast about people who are known as anything other than safe and sane players.
I've been invited by different groups to come and give talks on how to enjoy the scene. I use my talents as a mother and former school teacher to educate some very vulnerable, loving people who deserve the best. My age and my matronly appearance are in my favor. It's easier to listen to Ms. Margaret than Mistress Tattoo with her red Mohawk haircut, painted-on leather pants and spikes around her throat. The reason I continue my work is this.
