Pros and Cons of being a Dominatrix

Posted November 5, 2024

Ever wondered what the pros and cons of being in the BDSM industry are? Read on for DKM's take on them.

Pros to being in the BDSM Industry

– Meeting so many people from so many walks of life.

– I love helping people in their journey in the BDSM world.

– In addition to helping them in the BDSM world, the help I provide to their mental and emotional state (That is what they tell me).

– Flexibility in the hours that I work so that I could care for my mother when she was ill. It allowed me to take time when I was going thru cancer. 

– The knowledge I’ve gained in this world is beyond priceless.

– I love using my creativity to curate the perfect scenario for my subs.

– People trusting me with their deepest darkest desires and secrets is very rewarding.

– I absolutely love when people schedule fantasy play and there are one or more others that join us. 

– The kindness, empathy and generosity of so many.

CONs to being in the BDSM Industry

– I’ve had a stalker for 14 years. He surfaces on and off. (Because he went thru my garbage & gathered information.  He has gone after my daughter).

– I was once attacked years ago by a long term sub.

– I have to be careful and never leave anything with personal information.

– I’ve had people snoop thru medicine cabinets, the trash as well as my purse.  Therefore, so careful never to throw out stuff with personal information and my purse stays hidden.

– Photos – When I take a selfie, I do so only at my play space or out an about. People blow up my photos looking for personal information.

– We might work 7 or 14 days straight and then have no work for the next 14 days.

– Haggler’s – one does not haggle at the gas station, barber shop, grocery store.  You would never want your boss to haggle with your pay check.

– Time Wasters – People that just want to email and text and never book a session.

– We never know if we will have work or we can be completely booked up and then cancellations occur. 

These things can be so exhausting physically and mentally.

Personal Updates

Here it is fall in Michigan with cool days and brisk evenings, which I personally love. Happy Halloween! I will be going to costume party and not sure what costume to wear. Should I go as a Dominatrix or one of my other lovely costumes?

Thank you to Charisma for the new photos. The theme was sports as I do not always wear latex. Several people like me to wear jeans, shorts, yoga pants, the business suit look, sundresses and other everyday wear. I thought I would incorporate the sports wear with some boots. Some of you know what that is for.

When Hurricane Helene hit, it broke my heart. I want to thank everyone who contributed and I have been donating a portion of each session. I have spent a $1,000.00 on baby supplies, $1,000.00 on cleaning supplies and $1,000.00 on new socks and underwear for men, women and children and $1,000.00 has been spent on food.

I went with a girlfriend to a few Distilleries,Wineries and a fall festival all on a recent Saturday. Great weather, conversation, people watching, food and beverages.

The Detroit Tigers went further than ever and this year was a great year for them. The Detroit Lions have been doing well. Aiden’s injury absolutely terrible and he has a longer recovery a head of him. I am a fan of most sports just do not have the time to watch all the games.

Next newsletter will have a testimonial and I’ll be chatting about a fetish or two.

This does not have to do with work but would like feedback please and thank you in advance.
