Has anybody actually visited with them:

That stuff looks pretty scary. I'd pay them just to pass me by.  

There are several places downtown I can go. All I need to do is show up, and act like an asshole. Those people do it for free.

My inquiry is partly to find out what, besides for kicking the shit out of people, services they offer.

I too would rather abstain from that.

Better more legit dominas in the area if your into that.

I've now seen three of them. Eve, Azura and Syndicate. I highly recomend the service. No complaints at all.

I don't know these ladies, and they may in fact be the most kind and caring folks on earth.

My semi-joke was a shortcut for this ...

I'll admit to being somewhat risk-averse. I have a good life, enjoy good health, a lot of people depend on my good judgment and at 43 I have a lot still to contribute and many mountains left to climb. Yes, I take risks, but they are calculated. So my thoughts necessarily come from that perspective.

The services being offered by these ladies render the recipient completely helpless in the face of not only what they may wish to dole out; but also leave the recipient utterly dependent in the face of a fire or medical emergency.

A few years back, in Boston, a fellow had the misfortune of having a heart attack while in the care of a dominatrix. She wasn't very cool under pressure and instead of calling 9-1-1 to get an ambulance; she and her boyfriend wound up cutting up his dead body and disposing of it in a dumpster. At least, that's the story she gave in court because no other living person but her witnessed the death; and the body was such that an effective autopsy to determine full cause of death was unreliable.

Physical intimacy to start with leaves one terribly vulnerable; but one can be fairly certain all is well with someone who has been reviewed a lot. (In L.A. recently an escort drugged her customer right in his hotel room then brought in an accomplice to assist with robbing him. I'd suspect this lady had few if any reviews.)

Even if the lady tying you up is well-intentioned; are you confident in her ability to act under an emergency situation? Would she prioritize getting YOU out of a burning house?

So let me tell you what I would do instead if I wanted a lady to tie me up, because there is a very good and infinitely safer alternative.

There are a few super highly reviewed GFE providers here in the area that either also offer domination or have offered that exclusively in the past. You won't have to look far to find one of these ladies; especially if you read their posts on this board. I would see one or more of them under ordinary circumstances -- standard GFE.

During these sessions I would observe carefully. You'll be surprised at what you can tell just watching and listening to someone. In this way, you can develop an assessment of their character.

When you find a provider who you have seen a few times and that, in your assessment, can be fully trusted AND trusted under pressure; simply ask her. She probably has a big box of special toys and would be pleased as punch to bust them out for you.

In this way, you minimize the risks associated with this considerably and your comfort level will be much greater.

See, now wasn't the Cliff's Notes version better? (*grin*)

Again -- because being dominated isn't my cup of tea, risk-aversion sort of wins out over more courageous approaches. So my approach may not be appropriate for you. But I'd consider it if anyone depends on you for anything.

I understand and agree with what you say - being tied up isn't necessarily what I'm looking for, and definitely nothing as 'crazy as what is described on that site.

I figured they might provide variations in the service towards being more moderate, and was/am hoping someone might be able to offer some experienced based feedback.

Thanks for your reply though - provides a lot to think about.

Oneredshoe,

Please post some reviews.  That would be a great way to help out these ladies.

What's 'the service'?

I can't tell what to expect, once I were to remove the hardcore stuff

please elaborate?

send a pm if you'd prefer

There is a RI provider named Joi Love who offers a range of services, from dinner dates to GFE to a variety of role-playing including Naughty Nurse. Her reviews here look good, IIRC.

Well, I run TheMistressLine as well as BostonDommes. I had heard of the discussion going on, so perhaps I can shed some light on things:

As far as risk averse gentlemen: Not exactly certain how you having a heart attack equates to risk when it comes to others. Quite frankly, that was an off hand shot at VERY nice young ladies.

A) Heart attacks , if you have ANY back ground in physiology are typically the result of exertion: SEX is high exertion! So riddle me this: How many of the “providers” on here have medical/first aid as you questioned weather my young ladies should have.

B) We specialize in fetish: Dominance and Submission. Bondage is an aspect of that which is used UPON client request!! Not exactly certain how a guy wearing a dress is any more prone to having a heat attack than someone slamming the snot out of one of the “providers “on here. (Please, no offense meant to the providers, I know several of you and am friends with many, and do not mean that in a disparaging manner)

C) I have taken exception to basically badmouthing people and things you have absolutely NO knowledge of. These are VERY nice young ladies. Most of whom are post graduate candidates and have IQ’s running in the 140s and above.

D) as far as the “providers” comment about established: We’ve been here 2 years. We have a VERY strong repeat clientele and are now expanding because of our success and LOYALL clientele that we developed. We aren’t escorts, we don’t escort, we DON’T buy 20 memberships on the erotic review to give ourselves positive feedback.
Mistress Syndicate is actually quite famous and attends and is featured throughout the country at fetish events as well as being a VERY well known runway model, fetish model and was featured in better living this month. OH: and FYI, she’s a post graduate psychology major . She has been a dominatrix for over five years. She’ll be featured in the Montreal Fetish Fair in September. She just modeled down in NY last week at a fetish event as well as being featured in the Fort Lauderdale fetish fest.
Mistress Ivy/Aka Goddess Lilith is featured throughout the country as well.

Please don’t shit on what and who you don’t know about.

As far as Questions about the service, pick up the phone. It’s really that easy. I’ll gladly answer any questions you may have. Bondage is not required, it’s requested. We cater to many different fetishes and the website is geared toward fantasy more than what typically takes place: For example, we receive a TON of calls about forced-bi because many men fantasize about it. Truth is however, few follow through (some do).
The young ladies do not leave marks, don’t do ANYTHING that could harm someone and we reject 70% of the callers request. Safety is paramount, as is client satisfaction. The girls are kinky, not insane!
