I used to be part owner in a music venue which hosted private fetish parties monthly. I did not see this particular fetish, but I do know that they organized themselves through FetLife. You might be able to get more info on that site. HTH------------------ Claire "When going gets weird, the weird turn pro." -HST IP: Logged |

I found it distasteful for LL. That's not the vibe I want here. Sexual and fetish topics will always be borderline at this site. When I feel that they have crossed the line, they will be closed. We have children at LL, and it is my hope to keep this a family-friendly site. There might be some other Astrological boards that allow fetish topics like this, but LL isn't the place. It encourages a descent (like Kerosene's comments), and leaving it open would have seen it get worse. IP: Logged |

LOL well it did not really have much to do with astrology. I mean I guess it could of been moved because there was not much you could really analyze. It's sorta like asking why people do any sexual acts at all IP: Logged |

Yeah??? Kerosene, if a sex style can be figured out then why not fetishes? I've seen more popular fetishes mentioned here with aspects etc. Besides, be so kind and watch your words in threads like this, at least in MY threads. ------------------ I'm sooo happy! I mean, cappy. IP: Logged |

I'm all for it. But then I'm an alternative sex therapist; I'm always studying the odd predilections (fetishes, paraphiliae) picked up in dysfunctional development. So, sorry to hear that, Cappy. IP: Logged |

Sweet Peas is not a sex Forum. We did try allowing more adult topics there, and it didn't work. I didn't like the direction it headed in. IP: Logged |

I'm not surprised it was closed. And I think Randall got sick of moving threads to other forums anyway when it was usually clear where they went (as was the one that got closed...though even that was pushing it for SP). And I believe you knew it would get locked and hoped it would (or at least knew the risk when trying to stir the pot again), but maybe it's just my turn to have a paranoid moment (or just my usual reaction to finding it hard to believe someone is that clueless) and Randall may have felt the same. It's not common knowledge, that is you're not going to find Liz Greene or LG writing about it anywhere and I doubt it's something anyone takes to an astrologer anyway. If I were to wonder I'd get online to groups that advertise it, connect with some people online as a catfish pretending to be intrigued by the idea and curious (if playing the male) or inventing a plausible reason (that Randall wouldn't appreciate me sharing) why I (as a female persona) wanted to do this (yet also scared of trying--wouldn't want to be met up right away after all) so that I could find ways to get their birthday (granted, the time of birth probably wouldn't be possible unless you were willing to do more than interact online). With luck their birthdays will already be in their profile (at least the men) and if not then it's not hard to direct conversation that way. Then you'll have many charts to look at (don't forget the asteroids). Hey, after a few projects (and other "field research" ) like that you could write a book, Astrology Questions You Were Too Afraid to Ask (or would never even think to wonder about) by I'M SO CAPPY and it can get referenced when threads like these come up (and if done right I think it could sell).

I did not elaborate well. I apologize. Most of the fet people with whom I am acquainted are very open to astrology. I was thinking you could sign up for the website and put word out that you would like to see the charts of people who have this specific fetish. Respect of privacy is key. I have known some who have had their public lives damn near destroyed for what is a harmless, consensual and yet is considered "deviant" by the rest of society. ------------------ Claire "When going gets weird, the weird turn pro." -HST IP: Logged |

I don't think Cappy had bad intentions when she created the thread - she was genuinely curious about the astrological side of it, but it came off as inappropriate, especially for this Forum (SPITR could have been more fitting).Happens... IP: Logged |

I will have to concur with the average sentiment and I am VERY easygoing when it comes to non-mainstream subjects. Reading that I quite frankly gagged. IP: Logged |
