So, I would like a Master.

And I see [Cecil Adams](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/member.php?s=&action=getinfo&userid=31) has a status of Perfect Master. Wow, a **Perfect** Master.

Cecil are you into leather? Latex?

Now, I should say I am not gay, but I am willing to learn for the Perfect Master.

Oh this thread could get interesting…

You want a master…  
what makes you think a master wants you?

If your wanting to be a slave… what exactly does that entail?  
You get bosses around whiped spanked and buggered?

Or more like a source of cheap labour like many Martha Steward sweatshops in the 90’s?

CUrious minds just gotta know.

When the student is ready, the master will appear.

All I wanna know is… does it involve whipped cream?

Nah, whipped cream is so 1980’s. These days, it’s all about creamed corn.

The most improtant question in BDSM for an aspiring slave is  
Why do you want a master?  
Think carefully, and answer truthfuly.

I don’t think you deserve whipped potatoes. And don’t go begging, you know how that annoys me. Now go back into the timeout corner, and ask **FCM** for forgiveness. Molasses, pah, I’ll give you Molasses.

Are you ever going to contribute anything worthwhile?

Maybe something kinda-sorta thought provoking would be fine.

This crap is getting tedious.

**Kricket** Masters don’t crawl.

(unless of course they are switch, and not being a master at the time).

If you are anywhere near SF, are you going to the Fettish Ball this Saturday?

Well, I’m a bit of a dom at times, but I’ve not found the _right_ person to really go exploring too deeply with. Most of my companions in the past were more timid than I, and beyond that, I’ve been single and enjoyed that status for a good while now. So, nyeah nyeah nyeah.

No Sir, this girl is in Iowa and sadly too far to attend.

It is good to be eager, but you should not let the excitement go to your head. I do appreciate woodwork though, so you were half correct. I love rose wood, teak, and mahogany for furniture, Willow also has its uses.
