evie-lupine: oldenoughtobeyourfather: firefly-flashes: danipup: I adore this. Because he’s not in a suit but in his comfy pajama pants, and she’s not in several pieces of expensive lingerie and wearing 7″ heels. It’s not fantasies and positions that likely aren’t even feasible, as much fun as those things can be to look at. It’s not extreme, although I make room for such things on my blog as well. This is simply a quiet representation of submission and dominance, obedience and protection, warmth and safety and love, and it probably represents what a D/s relationship means to me, and what I ultimately want to have, more than anything else I reblog. As usual @danipup is 100% spot on. Fuck flashy lingerie and heels and impossibly contortionist body positions and submissives with 0% body fat and Dominants with six-pack abs and expensive suits. I want the reality of kneeling on carpet because the wood floors are chilly and being by his side rather than on a pedestal across the room any day. I’ll take the quiet reality of genuine, heartfelt D/s over the fake Tumblr flash any day. Mmhmm. Models are always dressed to the nines in fashion ads because their bosses are selling clothes. Dancers rarely wear their tutus and point shoes around the house. And during the week Subs and their Doms rarely have time to meticulously clean their play spaces, light them moodily, wax themselves bare or trim their beards to perfect stubble, let alone spend the 45 minutes needed to lace up in a flawless three limb shibari suspension. Doesn’t necessarily mean it never happens. But… it does mean that most perfectly lovely, immensely gratifying D/S happens in bathrobes and slippers, sweatshirts and mom or dad jeans. Same as every other kind of partner relationship. And that’s a feature not a flaw. Whenever I see photos like this I feel so warm and fuzzy. This is what my D/s looks like. This is what “real” power exchange often means. Just being who you are without pretense, humbled before another person to whom you have chosen to submit. Even if they have sweatpants on and not a freshly pressed Armani suit. If we hope to move past people seeing kink as “sex thing” we need more images like this. Not the pearls, the lace, the lingerie of the overly styled boudoir photography we often see for kink ‘representation’ in vanilla media and on Tumblr. We need to make it real. We need to show people this isn’t just an act for a camera or dress up in the bedroom, but rather part of our everyday lives. This photo expresses that idea so beautifully and simply. -- source link
