A natural imperative for a Fortress Mistress to return home. Welcome. Dannyboy

Actually my first session didn't go well either. That was ancient history. My first session at the Fortress took place after I had a good number of sessions with Ms. Kang prior to the opening of the Fortress. Dannyboy

We all remember our first. Above all we all remember our Fortress first even if we had many non-Fortress sessions prior to that. I'm sure there will be many more for you. Dannyboy

Through the years so much has changed. It started with swingers magazines, then with Screw and similar fetish magazines. Then with Craigslist and then Backpage. I could log onto dungeon websites and Eros.com clicking on BDSM. Dungeon or personal websites often have links to other sites. There is still so much out there to find but it is more difficult now. So many of my earlier Ladies have left the business and some are deceased. Dannyboy

In the year I first sessioned with Ms. Kang I expected to be free on Election Day but she would not be free. I asked her to recommend me to another Mistress for that day. She recommended Ms. Yin and wrote a letter of introduction. Ms. Yin was stellar as a Mistress and I never forgot that session. At one time I listed the three most intelligent Mistresses I ever met, Ms. Yin, Jade Vixen and Kat9 not necessarily in that order. At another time Nurse Noelle was seriously injured in a freak accident at the sMack party that year. Ms. Yin held a fund raiser to help with her medical bills at her place in lower Manhattan. I escorted Ms. Tigra to that event which was attended by all the top Mistresses in NY except our Headmistress. Even later I sessioned with Ms. Amiko at Yin's place. I am proud to have known her.

Unsexy? Hmmmmm. Went to Duane Reade to buy her menstrual pads. Meet her at a UPS store and load boxes into her car. Buy her a bed for her new apartment. I could go on and on. Different Ladies and different times. Dannyboy

As Spock would say your analysis seems logical. Didn't know of the documentary but I didn't get to see him fight Ernie Terrell. By sheer coincidence I happened to be in Portsmouth, England the night that he beat Brian London in Portsmouth, England. Perhaps the special is still available on demand. If so I'll watch it. Dannyboy

Recently saw a match between Delfine Persoon and Katie Taylor. It was a brutal match. Then I watched Ruiz knock out Joshua. The lady I spoke of was about 25 years my junior and didn't look like a fighter. In my prime I could have outrun her at those distances but never had the urge to fight her. She was quite attractive then so other urges crossed my mind. Dannyboy

I am not up to date on this event. Still struggling through the Triple Crown races and not very successful. I became aware of superior female athletes when I started running long distance races so many years ago. At another period of my life a female co-worker was a national class amateur boxer. We competed in long distance races together and I couldn't beat her at 5k and 5 miles. I never thought of her as a dominatrix though but I felt a sense of confidence that she was a "concealed weapon" in plain sight. I will not mention her name although I doubt that anyone will know who I am talking about. She did have a short professional boxing career. Dannyboy

To quote a commercial ad from the last century - "Try it you'll like it." I've been to many dungeons and have sessioned with many Mistresses. Most of the dungeons no longer exist and most of the Mistresses don't pursue that line of work anymore. The Fortress is a great place and her Mistresses are always a cut above the rest. Don't take my word for it. Just try it. Dannyboy

Dear Ms. Kang: I have that kind of a device. I had it with me when I took the Mensa test. The proctor didn't realize that I had 37 hours more than allowed for the two IQ tests. Well now you know the truth. Anyway I tried to take it to Churchill Downs on Kentucky Derby day. The security guards made me check it in but wouldn't give it back at the end. Something about going back in time and betting all the winners. I shoulda thought of that. Dannyboy

I didn't understand them to be fetishes as early as they began. It sort of reemerged in my late teens and went dormant for a decade or so. Still have the thoughts running around my head but my body is less than willing now. Dannyboy

My reaction to this topic may have been off center because I misinterpreted the Headmistress's intent. The flow of the responses so far do appear to be general and could apply to any Mistress or any dungeon. In that spirit I would say to a newbie that the fantasy and the reality may be incompatible. So if you have more intense or extreme fantasies don't seek to go that far in the first or even second session. You always have the option of going further in future sessions. I would also say to those in vanilla relationships to keep that part of your life secret and always cover your tracks. Dannyboy

Dear Ms. Kang: In my opinion you are making a noble gesture. I don't think many will come forward. It is in the nature of the male gender to relegate activities in the scene to a more private and even secret place. Male subs tend not to reveal to other males within their sphere what they do with Mistresses and the secrets often revealed in session. It is a subject that can be approached in a more general fashion but not much further. I would also say, having seen it and having felt it, that a certain sense of rivalry for the favor of a specific Mistress can emerge. In that case advising and sharing with a perceived rival might be self-defeating. We, however, often offer advice to first timers and newbies where they might post of their uncertainties and pre-session jitters. That is usually a safe topic. Dannyboy

Never had the experience of riding up the elevator with my Mistress of the day whom I never met before. I can imagine the feelings though. Dannyboy

A Motown song of long ago: "Beauty's Only Skin Deep" applies to a Fortress Mistress. Their beauty lies in those additional qualities that are lacking in most other Mistresses. It is too late for me to play Aprill Fool. Dannyboy

As a fellow Capricorn the knees are mentioned particularly. I am aware that knees of the goat are most vulnerable but cannot relate to any particular eroticism or intimate sensitivity relating to knees or the skeleton. Other parts of my body are often the loci of attention by Mistresses and or ladies who otherwise aim to please. Were I a skeleton I would be even less attractive to most women I know. I certainly would never fuck a skeleton regardless of astrological sign. Dannyboy

Fingers always work on one who is sensitive to tickling. Dannyboy

Questions on this general topic come up from time to time. Many of us have answers and many don't. For myself the fantasy and the reality were at odds until a later time in my life when the fantasy, the emotional needs and the nature of the sessions clicked. I no longer question or analyze my interests and/or participation in the scene. It serves a need which I have no reason to explain to myself of justify to others. At this late stage of my life my physical ability has diminished and other profound issues of life are before me. The fantasies are still present. I like the way you analyze and pose the question. I'm sure the answers will be clear to you in time. Dannyboy

I concur with a number of the names previously mentioned and must mention that a close family member's lineage traces back to Mary Shelley. Eve Sarah Kathy Switzer Grete Waitz Joan Benoit Samuelson Julie Krone Wilma Rudolph Althea Gibson Babe Didrickson Dannyboy

Hey! What am I? Chopped liver? Dannyboy p.s. LOL

Dear Ms. Kang: I was on the fence over offering to be part of another training session. Too bad it didn't work out but fortunately for you it came to light quickly. Dannyboy

KT: Never had to chance to session with MVD but did get to see Babs sing that song live that year. Dannyboy

Hi High...: Welcome to the Fortress. When it comes to living out those thoughts in your head this is the best place to start. Please let us know how it went. Dannyboy
