Sadly, there really isn't much of a community here to be part of. =(

I don't think there's a community around here. I don't think I'd be open enough to attend one anyhow.

Not sure if there's a scene here. It's a kind of small town, by a college town.

I'm a very active part of the local community. I go to at least one munch and party a month, as well as various demos.

I've been very involved my local bdsm community. I've gone to all the local bdsm places around Vancouver and also hosting a local munch. I haven't gone in a while though. I miss it and hope to go back to a Halloween play party next month.

I live pretty much in the boonies so I don't think we have a community. . . unless you count me and my SLUT paddle just running about slapping people on the backside for the fun of it. Than in that case I attend weekly and I'm the presidant. . . it's so lonely being the only person in my BDSM community.

We don't have one and I wouldn't be interested. My partner and I wouldn't do well in a group situation. EF is about as far as we go with sharing our intimacy and that's different. I prefer getting my info online and from people I know and trust, but I would just join a group. One reason is because if we did have one in my area, it'd be VERY different and probably nobody in my area even knows what BDSM is and hell, I already get called a whore on my blog! Lol. I guess some of the younger people around here are judgemental and they love to target anybody who is open about things like this. I'd be dead! Lol. Besides that, I like being open and talking about it, sharing experiences, but the people my age or younger wouldn't make it possible in my area.

I don't know if there is much of a community where I am. I would sort of like to be part of it, if there was one, but I'm fairly intimidated by the idea. I'm a little apprehensive about opening up to people anyway, and I don't know if I like the idea of sharing this side of myself with people in a face to face setting.

Most of my college friends are part of the local kink scenes. However, I'm generally so straight-laced and serious that the news that I had a sub was one of the biggest bombshells to hit our group since a lesbian friend announced her boyfriend (she likes women and him sexually - all other men are not okay).

Though, I'm not really comfortable enough to attend parties. I don't have any sexual interest in any of my friends, and seeing them in sexual situations would make me uncomfortable.

I used to be involved, but one day before an event I found myself seriously considering having a tshirt made that said "No you CAN'T tie me up and I'm not interested in girls!" In the hopes that I could maybe have an interaction with some one that didn't involve me actually saying those exact things out loud more than once.

I was so disgusted by the realization that I was actually considering wearing a sign so people would stop "forgetting" that I am dominant and straight. I decided I didn't want to have anything to do with it anymore.

Not that there is anything wrong with being sub or switch and bi or lesbian. I'm just not. And I really should have been able to say "this is how I am" and have the majority of people accept that. But they didn't. I ended up feeling like there was something wrong with me. My experience was that a lot of kinky people are even more close minded than most vanilla people.

I live in a populated enough area that I'm sure I could find some different groups, but I'm not really interested, right now.

I know there is a wonderful community around me, however I am not currently involved. Not sure if I ever will be, and while the idea is somewhat appealing to me, mainly because I am so proud to be my Daddy's slave, I am not sure if I ever would act upon that, since I am a very private person. In the end though the real choice about joining will be Daddy's, and I know he is more on the private side as I am.

I've gotten involved in my local community in the last ~4 months I think, and I absolutely love it. I can't go to the parties since they do them at a bar and I'm not 21 yet but the munches are awesome. Connecting with other kinky folks and getting to talk to them face to face is so, so, so much better than reading pages and pages of online junk.
