I very well understand what you mean Nigel. And yes it is a strong fantasy of mine too. The line between fantasy and reality can be a very thin one at times, yet when it comes to putting it all out there, that line can be quite the barrier as well. The trouble for us is we dread what we crave. When my Mistress allows me to play with myself, often my most violent orgasm is to fantasies of losing control to a mean and dominant, perhaps even crazy and psychotic Woman.

I have a few psycho ex's I could introduce you too...lol

I certainly understand that skepticism because I am a big skeptic myself and tend not to believe really anything unless I have seen or experienced it myself, and that's what concerns me.

For me it's not about having better abilities to measure things today as opposed to 100 years ago. It's about golfing in the middle of winter. It's about remembering in my lifetime how we used to build huge snow forts and would be buried in snow for 5 months and now barely get enough to build a snowman, and even that is melted by the next day. When I was a kid we'd build a snowman that would last at least half the winter.

I can't speak for other parts of the world, but It's changed in the north for sure. Even polar bears are dying because of the ice islands they once lived on are now melting. You can physically see the evidence here. It's not an "assumption"...its a fact...many of them.

I just think some areas of the world hasn't experienced it to that extent yet, such as in Australia and the UK. North America certainly has (USA, Canada), South America has, Asia has, but several (different) sources are pointing to by 2047 before the rest of the world will. While I'm usually a bigger skeptic I find it interesting that it's close enough that at least we'll find out one way or another soon enough if it's true or not.

While it may turn out to be just another Y2K panic, or 2012 scare, it's interesting that the time frame gets shorter and shorter with each new statistic released. I'm hoping I'm around to see it. Since we all will eventually die anyway I think it would be cool to go as part of the apocalyptic scenario just to see how it ends for mankind.

Call me morbid, but I find the possibility to be fascinating.

While it is true that events like that have happened before, they are now happening at a greater frequency than "normal". Whenever weather disasters happened when I was a kid it was always in some remote place I had never heard of before, but then it hit New Orleans a few years ago, and that was the closest ever to me. Now it's a regular event where towns within North America where I live are being wiped out...schools gone...houses reduced to nothing. The hurricane season in the past 3 years has been the worse ever here.

Bad weather and the disasters caused by it are common, but the recent frequency of them is not, at least not as far back as anyone in my family can remember, including my 103 year old uncle. While I do agree there are alarmists that make a "mountain out of a molehill" (as they say here), it seems like people disbelieve the incredible claims of the alarmists and then dismiss ALL of what is shown by real, scientific evidence, unfortunately. Put aside the alarmist claims and look at what's left and there is still lots of credible evidence there.

Bottom line though is that, believe it or not, it's something we'll all be able to find out soon enough...perhaps in as little as 10 years. Meet back here then to compare notes?

Greatest load of rubbish and in most instances just alarmists frightening people.

My opinion.

So then what is your logical explanation for the extreme weather around the world? I live in the north where massive ice blocks (excuse the name comparison) are literally melting and areas that have NEVER been clear of ice in recorded history are now rivers.

The past couple of years residents have been able to go golfing in the dead of winter when we're usually huddled indoors by the fireplace.

It certainly sounds like we're due for one of the Earth's climate shifts that has happened before, but I'm willing to hear your explanation as well....

The latest statistics I read claim that in only 10 years there will be places where their normal, everyday temperature will be higher than their highest norms are currently. So, every day will be like a record breaking high. Then they said eventually the whole world would be like that by 2047.

Think about that number. That's only 34 years away. Not 1000 or even 100. Just 34...within most people's lifetime.

Then they showed a a dried, cracked area in Texas that used to be a lake...

What are your opinions on global warming? Will it happen soon???

The rules here are simple: Post what you like, but keep it legal and at least somewhat sane...unless your crazy shit is REALLY interesting...then tell us about it.

Rant away!!!

Will the U.S. govt shutdowns in offices all over the country affect you? Do you believe some essential services should be kept open? What ones?

Is there an alternative solution that you would implement, if you were in charge?

Is the money then more like a "bonus" for you and not really the main focus? Is the focus on the control itself?

I love to eat! What is your favorite?

Pizza, pasta, anything Italian 

Is online financial domination easier to participate in than in person? It would certainly be more convenient and easy to leave, but does that make it better or worse?

Thoughts?

Do you prefer being trampled on by a woman wearing heels, flats or in bare feet?

I'm a pacifist and anti-gun, but for some reason I get aroused whenever I see pics or vids of females with guns. I assume it's part of the idea of female domination that intrigues me and not the weaponry, but I still feel rather confused about it...

The recent story of a mother who disowned her son after finding out he is gay and then her own father disowning her for being heartless towards his grandson raises an interesting question...

Original story here: http://gawker.com/grandpa-writes-letter-disowning-daughter-after-she-diso-1440373471

Would your own family be accepting of your particular fetishes, if they knew? I understand that being gay is not a fetish, but the discussion I'm trying to start is not about sexual gender preference...it's about family acceptance.

Would your Mom be ok with knowing you enjoy being trampled on, for example? Would your Dad encourage your penchant towards getting your balls kicked in by a sadistic domme?

Can anyone suggest a movie that features a scene or theme of financial domination in the fetish context (ie. not the typical "golddigger" or Hollywood glamour role)?

Let us know a bit about it!
