I have some friends who own adult stores in Athens, TN and Chattanooga, TN. The stores are called Whipped Lingerie and Novelties. They are two very friendly ladies so all you women out there don't have to worry about going inside and having some creepy dude working there. They style it more as a lady boutique than an adult store and it has a very welcoming atmosphere. They have the best selection and prices of any store between Knoxville and Chattanooga. If you live in that area check it out! You can find them on Facebook.
I am looking to connect with like minded kinky people. I am open to talking to and making friends with any gender, orientation, or role. If you are interested in chatting don't hesitate to send a message! I enjoy just meeting new people in general. I have been in the lifestyle for over 10 years and I have been in several real life BDSM relationships including my most recent relationship. My experience is not from online play and online chatting. Therefore, I can say that when it comes to this type of relationship (or friendship/play partners) I actually do know what I'm doing. With that being said, I'm not looking for any type of online play. Chatting online about things we like is totally fine. But when it comes to actually playing or a possible relationship I'm only interested in real life aspects. I also visit The Mark in Nashville where I am a member and enjoy attending events there as often as possible. If you are looking for advice about the lifestyle or have questions about it feel free to reach out.
My role in the lifestyle.....
I am a Dominant. I am not just a Top. While I do enjoy topping and I most definitely love the kinky sex, being Dominant is what it's all about for me. I appreciate the deeper connection that comes with being a Dominant and not just the kinky aspects of the lifestyle. I enjoy being the leader, being in charge, taking control of situations, making decisions, giving guidance, and teaching. Most people on here who call themselves Dominants are really just Tops. They enjoy the kinky aspects and might be the one who likes doing the tying so to speak. But when it comes to being consistent in being the leader in every type of situation that is where they fall short. Being Dominant really takes a lot of work. It's not easy being a true Dominant. It takes consistency and dedication, which are things a lot of people don't want to take the time to do. And as I said above, I do love just topping for sessions as well if that is all you are looking for. My favorite kinks include bondage, spanking, lingerie, anal, toys, and rough sex.
On the vanilla side......
I am a former Marine, have several computer science degrees, and work in cybersecurity. I'm an easy going guy that loves to have fun. I am definitely a work hard, play hard kinda guy. I love getting out and enjoying life. My personality is a good mix of active lifestyle enthusiast and nerd. It's a weird mix, I know, but that's me. I enjoy staying active and trying to stay fit and love outdoor activities and getting out and doing things. I love hiking, camping, scuba diving, and cave exploring. I also love gaming, science fiction, comic books, ect. I love sports, movies, music, cooking, reading, and anything outdoors. I like staying active by playing sports and being outside. I love music of all varieties. I am an animal lover. I am a thrill seeker and adrenaline junkie and love amusement parks and anything else that gets the adrenaline pumping. I like arts, classical music, and theater. I enjoy mini golf and bowling. I love attending concerts. And I also love hanging out by a bonfire drinking beer. I like to think I'm pretty open minded and have a wide range of interests. I never get bored!
I'd say these results are fairly accurate! If you want to see descriptions of each role see my pictures.
