The worst vice is advice - Al Pacino, The Devil's Advocate

I was on this site a year or so ago but left because most of the people I was meeting here were not what I expected or desired. I have realized though that I need to be clear with what I want or I'm going to continue to be disappointed.

I like pain, both handing it out and receiving it. In that manner you can consider me, your traditional sado-masochist.

When it comes to domination/submission I have to admit, it just isn't my thing outside of the bedroom. I personally can't stand submissive women in a relationship as I really don't have the desire to control someone's life day in and day out. Playing in the bedroom is fine; micro-managing your life is not.

As for dominant women... I prefer doms in theory because of their strong will. In practice, I have only encountered sociopaths who hide as dominatrices or women who want my money. I'm sorry, but I'm not paying you $100 so I can have the privilege of licking your boot.

Given my tastes, why would I call myself a switch? The main reason would have to be is that this website doesn't have any option for sado-masochists. I also do enjoy dom/sub play but only in the bedroom.

Right now I'm looking for people to talk to who also want to explore pain and pleasure but don't want to live the d/s lifestyle.
