AAAAAAH! Omnis, you blackfonted the worst part of the whitefont! My girly bits are now flinching, cringing and attempting to curl themselves up like a pillbug.

I just have to talk to the guy on the phone. He's the one who's got to see him mostly naked for 40 minutes, which should be ample punishment for caving.)

Clearly this guy needs medicinal application of the asshook.

java, yes. And I just edited out our specialty in the above post--I'm pretty sure it's just bitchy, not actually HIPAA-violating, but wanted to stay on the safe side.

Since "Entitled Assgasket" probably describes, oh, half to 2/3 the entire human race at any given moment.

Heh. Between that and the corsetry, I am totaly kinkoriffic for 1959!

The Boy is still confused by the prevalence of corsets among the Buffistas who are not kinky, because he considers them a Kink 101 garment.

My explanations always fall short.

They provide better boobage support than do regular bras and also help with the posture.

oops. Sorry JZ.

Also - asking Tep a question since she is Kink Representative in these here parts.

Where is the kink line? By which I mean, when is something considered kink? Is it unique to the individual/partners or is there a compartmentalization of "This is kink. That is just erotic."

(And apologies if I offend with simplicity or asinine words.)

I would think a simple "not everyone thinks the way you do," would suffice. Not in a mean way or anything, but I am a bit surprised that The Boy can't step outside of his own view of the world long enough to see that some people may just see a corset as something pretty to wear.

And, if you have any interest at all in historical fashion, you very quickly develop an eye for them--all sorts of period movies and shows and plays start looking either exactly right or just fundamentally wrong. Dresses hang wrong, boobs look wrong under them, in a particular artfully framed shot you can't appreciate the aesthetic beauty of it all because this or that character's silhouette is just suddenly so jarringly modern or sloppy.

I definitely like the way I look in a corset, but there's also a definite history-geek element to the whole thing for me too, and I can think of a few (not a lot, but definitely a few) comparatively non-kinky friends whose fondness for corsets is highly history-geeky.

JZ, I edited back a little spoiler font. If only I could have thought of an example of a search that began with ass, then it would have been better.

So. Um. Clearly my mind is not focusing on work. Does that mean I can leave early? Reading this book on how to run meetings is boring.
