I've read a number of Elliott's books, and I've enjoyed them all. They help me think about who I am, how I fit in, and who I want to be. <br /><br />I'm out to a few friends, but not most. A couple of co-workers are aware. I keep muddling a along, trying to maintain the uneasy balance between being honest about who I am and maintaining a respectable privacy.<br /><br />In the meantime? I'll start checking the bookshelves for Advo's Adventures in Kinkland!<br /><br />JeffreyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1458862844610146892.post-37533820104930018402011-06-21T23:10:50.705-04:002011-06-21T23:10:50.705-04:00HMP -

Definitely worth the read.<br /><br />I suppose being "out" is a relative term and very personal.<br /><br />Rant away. I'm not so much of an activist as I find the pressing issues of my day and life to be pretty consuming. Also a bit tricky to define what you'd be active about.<br /><br />What consenting adults do in the bedroom doesn't require much activism. Elliot wrote the intro to "My Girlfriend" during the Bush administration's crack down on obscenity. And certainly the politics of sex work are important and complex. Not sure that's my fight though.<br /><br /><br />Aarkey -<br /><br />I think slowly and gently is the way to go. Too much too soon could be just that - too much too soon.advochastyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10602192383025913039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1458862844610146892.post-46896226479583242102011-06-20T11:10:14.939-04:002011-06-20T11:10:14.939-04:00Being out is such a tricky and personal thing.

Just seeing kink getting more and more treatment both in the media and society, shows that the borders that kept us contained are slowly eroding.Aarkeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08835944871054417961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1458862844610146892.post-12007820593298300852011-06-20T08:04:21.594-04:002011-06-20T08:04:21.594-04:00Hi Advo:

I have heard of the book but of course a recommendation from you (not to mention retired Domme) definitely ups the ante. <br /><br />I have always been pretty out about my kink. Probably because I started playing when I was still very young. I do keep it to myself where my professional colleagues are concerned as that seems the prudent thing to do. Some of my Facebook friends know about my proclivities though. Especially ex-girlfriends and ex-roommates! ;-) Back in those days we were all pretty wild. I don't think folks really thought it was a big deal. But all of my close friends knew.<br /><br />If I were to become a political activist I doubt my cause would be kink. There are just too many other more urgent and pressing issues that have to be addressed first. I will stop right there as I doubt you want me stand up on my soapbox and start ranting on your blog! ;-)Her Majesty's Playthinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07185896552621339359noreply@blogger.com
