Etoile said:Okay then.
My perspective on being a girl comes from the leather community. Within the leather community, most boys and girls are service-oriented. Our joy is to provide whatever services our PYL's desire of us. And yet there is something more to it, for both boys and girls. There is an impishness, a playfulness, and a loving heart. Being a leathergirl isn't just about serving all the time, it's also about being youthful in the mind - always having a fresh outlook on the world. This is what I have referred to as needing "guidance" - I feel like I am always learning and I am never sure what is the right thing to do, and I need to be steered in the right direction and taught the ways of the world.
For me, being a girl is my identity, not just the role I take. I am always thinking of how best to serve my Daddy, but at the same time I am wide-eyed and excited by so many things. I like to think it keeps PYL's young to have a girl (or boy) around all the time. Being a girl is not about saying "okay, for the next 48 hours I am going to depend on my Daddy for encouragement and support and praise, and then I will go back to being something else." Being a girl is about serving, and loving, with a feminine heart. Always.
I really really liked this description, Etoile. Thank you.
