Evil Hypnodommes

(Julia - with hand on heart.) I Julia do solemnly swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth so help me God.

Interviewer: Julia, now that you have been sworn in let's get straight to the point. It is rumored that you believe that all commerical dommes, hypno and otherwise, are terrible, ruthless people and that you Julia - Evil Cowgirl that you are - have determined it is your mission in life to protect submissive men everywhere from the evil wiles of totally ruthless women. Some are once again ... err.. mentioning... yes that's the nice word for it... mentioning that they find such a stance offensive. Comments?

Julia: I think those who continue to hang on to this issue should let go and find something else about which to be upset - like the cost of a good evil cowgirl lasso. Do you have any idea how rare those things are and how much they sell for? It's outrageous! ;)

All teasing aside, please let me clearly state I have never said all pay Dommes hypno or otherwise are bad, unethical, and/or cannot be trusted. I have always encouraged people to exercise caution before becoming entangled with anyone hypnotically or in a D/s situation. Anyone - commercial or not. Why would any sane person let someone toy with their mind or their body without knowing for certain that individual is ethical and safe?

This rumor sprang up a couple of years ago because of a decision I made not to allow advertisement of any kind for commercial Dommes in my yahoo group. This decision was never meant as an aspersion towards pay Dommes and I've explained this a number of times. Why this rumor will not die is beyond me, but this is the last time I will address it. Are there dangerous hypnodommes and commercial Dommes out there? Absolutely. Not all professional Dommes are dangerous and not not all lifestyle Dommes are safe. Some simply get their kicks from being extremely cruel and unsafe while others want to take whatever they can get from you. There are also safe, ethical Dommes both commercial and lifestyle. I've never publicly labeled anyone as a negative force, rather I've simply pointed out things I consider risky or down right dangerous.

To stay safe with D/s and D/s hypnoplay, know yourself. Know the basics. Know the person with whom you are about to play. Use good common sense that is based on sound information.
