“Yes, I now feel that it was then on that evening of sweet dreams- that the very first dawn of human love burst upon the icy night of my spirit. Since that period I have never seen nor heard your name without a shiver half of delight, half of anxiety.”
~~ Edgar Allan Poe
I have to be honest–most scene names, particularly Femdomme names tend to illicit my inner snark. Perhaps it’s because I have a hard time taking myself that seriously. I could never insist that someone refer to me as “Goddess” without snickering. I understand that a scene name can help set a mood or further a fantasy. But to insist that you be treated with absolute devotion and reverence (even outside the dungeon) just because you’re a “Domme” is redonculous. In fact, I tend to think it denotes a certain lack of confidence. And honestly, what’s so dominant about that? Plain Kate suites me just fine, thank you.
