My experience is wide ranging as I first realized my role about 20 years ago. When I discipline, it's because I care enough to do so, not for a cheap thrill. That said, mixing some pain with pleasure can be enjoyable and, at times, necessary. Structure, rules, and purpose are of supreme importance to me. I will always accept a submissive for who she is and what I know she can become as opposed to how others view her. Intellectually inclined, extremely kinky and have a need to control and dominate. I enjoy teaching, guiding, and training just as I do hard use when needed or desired. Building a bond of trust is important.
