Considering
America’s recent fascination with the “erotica” series titled “50 Shades of
Grey,” I’m wondering if some clever men out there are spicing up their
otherwise lame profiles with some S&M for shits and giggles, or
if they really are looking for - and anticipate finding - their perfect dom-sub
relationship online.
Let me begin
with saying that I, like the multitude of curious women in the USA, picked up
“50 Shades of Grey.” The marketing behind this book was extraordinary. Sex
sells.
What was less-than-extraordinary
was the writing. Granted, I hadn't anticipated enveloping myself in a great
literary masterpiece, but I can honestly say that the “Twilight” series was far
more eloquently written than “50 Shades.”
In any case, libidos have been thrown into overdrive due to the popularity of the book, and
the dominance-submission (a.k.a dom-sub) theme has taken off. Therefore I would
like to dedicate this next post to those men who have the [silver] balls to
make this theme the main emphasis of their OK Cupid profile!
Meet “Cdom.”* I’ll be honest. He’s hot. Gorgeous, in fact. So cute that I’m thinking this guy
must be using Abercrombie and Fitch photos to get our attention. He gets right
to the point:
"I think it is important for the sake of
compatibility, so I am leading with this: as it turns out, I prefer to be
somewhat Dominant in the bedroom. So yeah. There it is. I just wrote that, just
put it right out there lol. :)
But seriously, becoming aware of this fact has
been a somewhat recent phenomenon. I will say that after doing a little
research into this, I am most definitely on the lighter side of the
spectrum--that much is very clear (also clear: NOT to google
"Dominance/submission"!) So, I am not interested in anything that
causes actual pain--causing someone real pain is not, in any way, cool to me.
But I do have a strong interest in dominant scenarios (tied hands can be so
very sexy), dominant positions (kneeling can be so very hot), dominant and
dirty talk, etc...
Ok, so I'm going to continue to climb out on a
limb here (I guess if I can't be up-front here, where can I be?): I am hoping
to find one secure, sexy, and intelligent woman who wants to explore her
submissive side. So, yeah, I just wrote that too... and I have to admit that
this whole thing feels oddly liberating lol. And to be clear: this is NOT
something I would want to do every time. But, I am fully aware that my partner
will HAVE to be both truly sexually adventurous as well as genuinely intrigued
by this type of sexual dynamic in order for our relationship to work.
And you know I am not trying to offend anyone
with this. At all. So if I happen to do so, I apologize in advance--I am merely
looking for my match, just like everyone else on here!
Anyway, if my profile has caught
your attention, I hope to hear from you. We can figure out a day and time to
meet for coffee, and see how things are in person; maybe take a day or two to
think about it, and go from there. If we then decide we want to hold hands,
close our eyes, and jump in--so be it. I am looking for a relationship, NOT a
one-time thing; exploring this would take time... :)"
How’s that for
honest? Wow, right? I betcha he’s got the contract drafted and everything for that
lucky sub.
Next is
“rmike”* Another cute guy on OK Cupid. What’s up with all the hotties being
sexual deviants?
"In grad school and pretty busy,
but always had an interest in bondage so looking for someone to practice tying
up. Not looking for sex, as weird as that sounds, just some fun bondage play.
If this is potentially interesting to you, let me know! I'd love to chat with
ya and we can see if we make things work.
An yes, otherwise I'm a totally
normal guy...just happen to have an odd interest. Other interests include
trying new restaurants, traveling, sitting on a beach, and watching football. A
pretty laid back person in general.
An yes, I realize I have no pics
on here.... but talk to me a bit and I will show you what I look like."
My favorite thing about this profile is
how he so coolly goes from “I’m in grad school, pretty busy” straight into “always
had an interest in bondage” in the same breath. In the first breath, in fact. He
mentions at least two more times on his full profile that he’s “pretty normal.”
But then again, who’s to judge what’s
“normal” in the online dating world anymore.
So in a nutshell, these are the most good
looking, interesting - and at the same time terrifying - suitors I’ve come
across this summer.
I wonder, should I have read the entire "50 Shades of Grey" trilogy to prepare me for might come next...?
*Names are almost the same, but I have left off the numerical
value just so as to not blow up these guys’ spots completely.
