Reading Restrictions or Requirements

Contributor: Rayne Millaray Rayne Millaray
This question is probably more suited for people in D/s relationships, rather than just the kink-dabbler.

I have a single reading restriction. There's a particularly misandrist feminist blog that I'm not allowed to read. A feminist who admits to being a "man-hater". M feels that, because of the material presented in her blog, an owned female has no business reading it. But, to be honest, the woman, quite frankly, disgusts me. And the only reason I even know about her blog is because of her position on BDSM.

But I have had tons of reading requirements over the years. From fictional fantasy series to educational books.

I couldn't tell you the point of assigning me fictional reading, aside from giving us something to talk about. I've never asked. But there hasn't been a book I haven't liked.

As for the educational reading, I think that speaks for itself.

What about you? Have you ever had reading restrictions or requirements? If so, what were they?

I've not had one but I've given both reading and watching (DVD) assignments to my husband in relation to our 'lifestyle'. I have a lot more experience with BDSM and wanted to make sure he was comfortable with certain things and assigned him things to read/ watch. Each time he's done very well with it and has said it has helped him grow.

There are certain blogs I am not allowed to read (I am sure that same one is on my list) due to feminist beliefs. I am not devastated by that though since I have a whole separate belief system than those bloggers do. Quite honestly, I don't believe I would read them on my own even if J asked me too because my blood would likely boil.

Heh I think my guys would love to give me assignments but they tend to range in to the 'write this for me area'. My husband and I are avid readers and enjoy around the same sorts of topics (lots of fights when new books make it to our house) but Arch isn't as much of a reader, we figure he'll grow into it! We've given him reading assignments and he's appreciated the thought.

I've never had any restrictions, and I have never had any required per say. BUT I have been given research assignments.

I have had suggested reading - stories he has enjoyed, conversations going on in groups - that kind of thing.
