My Two Cents on Being a Dominant
What kind of a Dominant am I? My first impulse has always been to categorize
myself as an Ineffable Dom, but I’ve recently come to realize that I’ve always
done so not so much because my style of dominance can’t be described, but
because I just don’t like having to describe it.
If I had to categorize myself, I would be very tempted to create a whole new
classification for myself and the relatively small number of other Dominants
who are like me. I would designate it the White Knight Dom. Yes, I know what
you’re thinking. You’re thinking that a person would have to be pretty darn full
of himself to think he can willy-nilly create a whole new category of Dominant
just for himself and, in fact, you would be absolutely right. Fortunately, when it
comes to being full of myself, I am eminently qualified.
The White Knight Dom wants to right wrongs, slay dragons, rescue beautiful
women, treat his submissive like a princess, and become King – and he wants to
do it all before lunch. He is driven by a deep sense of chivalry and altruism that
transcends what he considers to be the sordid and tawdry business of selfgratification.
The White Knight lives to find solutions to your problems. He
gets off on learning what makes you tick. He truly isn’t happy unless you’re
happy. Where other Dominants might seek out submissives for their own
gratification, the White Knight seeks them out because that’s what a White
Knight does as he solves riddles, completes quests, and slays monsters. For the
White Knight, conduct and protocol count for a lot. This is why a submissive’s
ability to convincingly pull off the classic transformation from “princess in
public, to whore in the bedroom” is so important to him. The gallant knight
expects – no, demands – that anyone he rescues from the clutches of the beast be
future Queen material. The White Knight aspires to be King of his castle,
sovereign of the realm, and to be afforded all the rights and privileges thereof.
There are disadvantages of being a White Knight, some of them quite profound,
indeed. The first and most obvious is you simply can’t save everyone, no matter
how much you may want to, no matter how hard you try. Second, there are
fewer and fewer princesses to go around, which frankly, is exactly the way
princesses like it. Even when a princess can be found and rescued, the fairy tales
rarely mention what happens next. The White Knight returns to the castle with
his prize in hand, only to be greeted by a royal chorus of crestfallen princesses
