I wonder

[roxy]

What happens when you're in a BDSM lifestyle and you're entering old age? I have no idea how to search for that. Geriatric BDSM didn't help. I know squat about the life, just what I read in stories. It was just a little idea that came of thinking about sex after fifty, and how everyone seems to think it doesn't exist, and then thinking about these tons of stories featuring young, healthy, gorgeous people. I think it'd be interesting to see how things change when knees and spines and hips and stuff won't let you do the things you did in your youth so easily. How would that make the sub feel, or the dom? Maybe it would be an easy and on-going progression of change, or would it be frightening, or disappointing?

Anyhoo, this is what I think about when I'm folding t-shirts and watching folks rip open sealed packs of undies. :)

*grins and hugs you* Yeah, my adventures in BDSM haven't been very deep but from what I've seen it's very much a matter of 'if it don't work, shift it!' So if you can't kneel, well, that's what chairs are for. Sit proper and pretty for your Dom. Or if you can't hold you hands behind your back for long periods, there's holding them on your knees or in your lap instead. It's the submission, not the form, per se.

Which, yeah, for young people isn't true but I know perfectly well what my bod would do if I tried to kneel for more than a few seconds. Since I just did it to pack a box for the hubby and ow. Not happy knees.

But yeah, I think there could be a lovely funny story about an aging BDSM couple. XD
