... Ysabet wants to find a 'Dominatrix for Dummies' book now....

(she's cheerfully saying this while ironing clothing, which somehow makes it worse)

*dies laughing at Ysa's spluttering denial* Sure Ysa. Suuuuuuuure. Dominatrix for Dummies?!

I'm not sure if I should be more amused at Ysa's denial or the title "her squiddiness"...XD

Hauntress, you are NOT HELPING!!! **more sputtering** And anyway, it's true-- the friend I mentioned is one I've known for absolute YEARS, and all of a sudden when I saw her a few months back she said rather thoughtfully that she was thinking of going into the Dominatrix business (the non-callgirl kind, with domination but not sex, being that prostitution is illegal in her area. Her business, not mine... Hard to see how you can keep 'em separate, but whatever.) They make around $300-$400 per client session if they're good at it, apparently... and yeah, she'd be good.

As for me, I could never ever do that for any length of time-- I'd develope the giggles SO fast. It's the outfit. I'd start paying attention to how the leather creaks, start making odd noises with an armpit, and totally lose all my client's respect.

Now, if they had a category for people who were hired to teach you how to PLAY... Professional 'Adult Children', to borrow a term from bardicsidhe. I could do that, you know?
