Things that made you smile today.

[Alana_]

Hubby's offer of rubbing brandy on his cock, after I kissed him goodnight and said the brandy tasted nicer from his lips than the glass.

 

[yeishia]

Ohhh you are so very lucky Alana..are you running off to bed now?

 

[Light Ice]

I'm at Harry Potter.

Waking up to my boyfriend beside me! Sigh...then a hot night followed by an especially hot morning!

 

[FuckFantasy]

That is your take on it, lighten up FF, find another victim I am certainly not yours!

I am simply me if you do not like it...tough!

I am not turning into a crude aggressive bitch merely to please someone I do not know nor whom I would care to know, either here or in the real world.

Get a grip...move on!

Seriously, you're telling me to get a grip and move on when:

1. My post had nothing to do with you, and in no way shape or form did it even allude to you, giving you no grounds to even comment.

2. You commented to me anyway for attention, and I've not spoken a word to you in at least a month. And the last time I talked to you, I was calling you out for editing comments in which you attacked me. I LIKED them - I told you they demonstrated backbone, remember? Should have kept that up, it was refreshing.

3. I corrected you after you took a dig at me, and you took the 'Teehee I'm a whimsical sparkle princess who is so clever and innocent!' passive-aggressive route, rather than saying "Yeah, well, I just wanted to ~sneakily~ attack you and garner sympathy, sorry."

4. You continue to act as if I did something heinous to you when, aside from one blatantly bitchy post, I've really done nothing to you, yet you're the one calling me a 'crude aggressive bitch'. (Maybe you're still mad because I don't want to scene with you, because I'm not sexually attracted to you.)

5. You cry when you cum. I know, this one doesn't have anything to do with me, but I'm putting it out there anyway.

Bonus: You fake-blush incessantly after dropping hint after hint to be coddled and praised, and it's kind of embarrassing.

But you're right, Blanche. I'm a mean girl, and you've never done a thing other than ask for romance and magic. Hopefully some kind stranger will come along soon and rescue you from my cruelty.

We'll have to get those fingernails trimmed though.

Reminder

I know the smile threads get done to death everywhere, but they're happy good humored threads, and I don't see the harm in one here. If you don't like the topic, please don't comment here about it as it's meant to be light hearted.

.....Ladies ,please stop!

 

[Alana_]

I'm at Harry Potter.

Have a great time LI.

 

[FuckFantasy]

.....Ladies ,please stop!

Yes ma'am. If only because I like you, Alana.

 

[Alana_]

Yes ma'am. If only because I like you, Alana.

Good girl.

 

[FuckFantasy]

Good girl.

Oh, I can be SO well-behaved, when given the proper incentives to do so. ;D

You, by the way, are the luckiest wife on the planet. ^^^^^^^

 

[LoganDarkHolme]

oh really? *grinning he crosses his arms* and just ahh what incentives should those be i wonder

 

[Stephanie4play]

I begged my Vanilla Lover Man*to grab my ass harder and harder last night. I awoke sleep deprived to a pleasant pain and smiled when I found lovely red fingernail marks on my cheeks.

Worn out and marked! * *big grin*

Vanilla Man might have just graduated to Tapioca!

 

[Light Ice]

Why do people in the BDSM community call people who aren't involved in that kind of play "Vanilla"?

Is it a way to pat yourself on the back?

 

[Stephanie4play]

Nothing more than a descriptive label for the benefit of conceptual communication.

Does it offend you? I mean, I like vanilla too. I just happen to like chocolate more.

I find it silly, I'll confess that much.

I understand that in general the entire community has been pushed underground by an intolerant (and incredibly repressed) society but the names, not only for those who do not practice in the community but for those that experiment to a lesser degree, seem childish.

The nature of my question was where does it come from. What are the inclinations behind it?

Thai for dinner...

Toffee ice cream for dessert...but whether to have it from a bowl, from the tub, or off each other, that is the question...

 

[LoganDarkHolme]

Light, for once, just shut the fuck up and stop trolling, people are entitled to their opinion yes, however you seem to take personal joy in just being a troll most of the time. She is New to Lit, go away she doesnt need you harassing her

 

[Stephanie4play]

In my mind it is literally nothing more than a label to create distinction. Not that his applies to you, but in my experience people who don't like it usually have somehing eating at them of their own.

 

[ultimatefntsy]

The fact that it is 75 degrees out and my windows are open.

The cute little green gecko sunning himself on my porch.

A short week that is badly needed.

Entirely possible.

Again, I was more curious why the label. It -seemed- to have negative connotations and I was wondering if that is actually the case. What makes it so interesting to me, really, is that it seems fairly uniform and common for BDSM players across the internet to refer to non-BDSM play as "Vanilla".

I'm curious as to the actual origin of the name. I can't expect you to know that, though.

pouncing my Alpha before I run

my alpha, meeting Mav in my Den, early morning pep talk from the Witchling, my 16 year old coming to meet me at work...

 

[Ahren]

Well, it's not that confusing. They call it vanilla because it is analgous to ice cream where vanilla is the most basic and common flavor.

I don't have problem with the wording so much as how it's often represented in a negative light because everyone here wants to be in some sort of master/slave, dom/sub, or whatever relationship.

Oh, agreed. And clearly.

But it seems pretty universal in the community. I am really curious as to why and where it started. Did they all simultaneously decide to use "Vanilla"? Was it a product of "my non-practicing lover" or "the man that doesn't beat my ass with a belt" being too long or unfavorable to say?

I'm suddenly wondering if there's like an internet "hub" for BDSM players that us non-practicing folks are unaware of where the lingo is picked up and circulated.

 

[Ahren]

I dunno. I guess? "Normal" is pretty easy to say, too.
