Shayna, great rant, and I agree totally. I have had r/l subs AND online subs and they are different but online can be almost as fulfilling as real life and it certainly works for me now.

The argument IS tired and even though I will give the creator of this thread the benefit of the doubt, most of the threads now and in the past were there to somehow express the superiority of the dom asking the question.

If you are a real life dom or sub that doesn't GET online? That is your prerogative, you don't ever have to do it. It does NOT mean that you are any MORE a dom or sub than those who do, however.

Since I have experienced both, I find you have to be MORE creative online. Yes, the offline experiences are more fulfilling. Nothing can match touching a real person. But I and my online subs have had no problem in having a lot of fun.
