Wow Bx! As I read the article I felt like I was there with you, attending the party. Your experience deeply resonates with me. I have not yet been in a group situation like such, but I feel I wouldn't have been able to fully enjoy it and let go. As a dominant femme, I paid attention to how my partner responded. But it was just one person, with whom I had clear boundaries in place.
I think in a room full of vulnerable people, I would have also felt distracted, like "I had to keep an eye on the situation". Maybe it's a protector instinct I can't seem to shake off? I can't tell.
On the other topic, would I ever put myself in their chair? Absolutely not, I would hate it. But I guess, as one of the SxTechEU panelists said, back in May (forgive me, I can't remember who said this specifically) "empathy makes you a better dom".
So, I think you just proved yourself that, regardless of where this experience may lead, you are doing things with a lot of self awareness and respect. 🩷
Ahhh babe appreciate reading your reflections and how you relate to this experience. I love the phrase 'empathy makes u a better dom' - that will stay with me for sure.
