Back From Vacation
Have I said this before? There is something special about a man taking the time to write a poem for you. It puts me in a good mood. It brightens my day. Ore, you are a good boy for making mistress's day. If you were here, I would give you a big hug and kiss.
For each of you gentlemen, who want your wives's to dominate them, I recommend that you start with a poem and bouquet of flowers. Sweet words and flowers, along with house work, will get you places.
A special thank you to Ms. Christina for commenting on the blog. Her comment is in the 'A Basic Question or Two' posting. While her comment is short, she says a great deal with just a few words. All of you know I think of male submission as something that is very natural. It is not a kink. Mistress Christina presents a very eloquent theory on this idea. I also read her posting on the subject of 'training a man' and thought is was excellent.
Before closing this posting, I have a short assignment for the guys that read this blog. You are to read Mistress Christina's comment in 'A Basic Question or Two' slowly, and think about what she is saying. If needed you are to read it over several times until you understand it. Think about the comment in terms of your life, and how you treat women. Then, you are to go to her blog, and thank her for making the comment. This is a bright, intelligent women giving you free advice. As a male you should at least have the courtesy to say thank you mistress for your posting.
The subject of Mistress Christina is something we will want to talk about on this blog.

Becoming a Mistress
Sometimes the blogs make you want to laugh. Other times you just want to cry for these poor men that want so much to be under the thumb of their women. The men are so unsure of them selves. They wonder out loud on their blogs; should I tell her this, should I email her, should I give her the book. In most cases the wives have hardly any idea what the poor husband is talking about. In almost all cases the wives would be utterly amazed to learn how important this domination thing is for their husbands.
The sad part is that the thing we all want most is the thing we can't have. For the poor babies whose wives won't accept their submission, they have very few out lets to express their need.
In my view withholding domination from a husband is as bad as withholding sex. There, I said it, and believe it is true. In a committed relationship a women has an obligation to understand the needs of her man. This doesn't mean she should dance to his tune, but she does need to listen to the music he is playing. This is important for his mental health as well as the health of the marriage.
Six yeas ago when I let John come home there were a lot of conflicting thoughts spinning around in my head. From working with Tara, talking with other people, I knew that to be happy John needed to have a mistress. It was up to me to decide if I wanted to become that mistress. If not, there was no good reason for us to stay married. On this blog I have repeatably said that I did not want a husband who would be sneaking around behind my back to look at porn sites. It was also clear to me that if I forbid this type of activity to him he would be a very frustrated, as well as unhappy man. This is not what I wanted for a husband. Also, while it seams funny now, I didn't know if John would accept me as his mistress. Although I learned a great deal working at the studio, the person who really convinced me that the 'mistress thing' could work at home was Liz.
In my journey from soccer mom to mistress, the hardest part was to start. The first phone call to Tara took me over an hour to make. Every second that the phone rang seamed like an eternity. The next most difficult part was to ring the door bell at her studio. I kept wondering who might see me. Once I realized that the sight of a naked man didn't bother me, the learning process became easier. Tara told me to laugh when I saw one of the naked men in the studio. Yes, she told me to look at the 'little thing' straight on and giggle. It took the pressure off.
Of course, the poor little man thought you were giggling at the small size of his 'thing'.
The entire journey to mistress was a learning experience. I learned to talk with men in a different way. I learned to be comfortable giving commands to men, and expecting them to obey.
Men can sense it when a women has self confident. This is what they want; a self confident women who is willing to put them under her thumb. It is not really about having a dominant personality. Sure, if your mom happened to be a dominatrix, it might have molded your personality in certain ways that would make the learning process easier. However, the relationship between a dominant wife and her submissive husband is very different than that of a dominatrix and her client.
The first day I met Liz she invited me to her home. You could feel the love she and her husband had for each other. Liz understood that her happiness was her husband's happiness. Her husband lived to make her life complete, and in doing so rejoiced in his servitude.
Does this make sense to any of you you? It is the essence of what makes a loving relationship in a fem/dom marriage.
As Liz and I walked through the door on that first visit, her husband dropped to the floor. She then gave me a long tour of the house. To my surprise her husband stayed in that position, on the floor, the entire time. I remember thinking how humiliating for this poor man. She then told me that he was proud to be shown off in this fashion to another women. He took pleasure in being shown off. Yes, he took pleasure in showing off how well his wife had trained him. In that position; forehead, elbows, and toes on the floor with the rear end up, he was not allowed to speak or move a muscle. This was a type of position we required of men in the studio, but it never occurred to me that a wife would require it of her husband. Them, with a slight clap of her hands, he was allowed to stand.
What I learned that day was Liz's pleasure, as mistress of the house was also his pleasure. Although a professional man, Liz's husband had full confidence in his wife's judgment as to who came into the house, and to whom he was shown off. On that first day Liz described her husband as a slave. At the time I thought this is a strong word. However, after seeing how conditioned this man was to obeying every little order that Liz gave to him, the slave word seamed appropriate. Is he happy, I asked. Liz gave her husband permission to speak. His answer was yes, he had been secretly wanting this lifestyle his entire life. He never thought his wife would agree to it. Somewhere is the conversation I asked who knows about the way you live. Liz answered Tara, a few girl friends that she had an association with, and their house maid. I gulped, the maid. Liz said yes, she has been with us for several years. When the three of them were along in the house, it was hard to keep the changed relationship a secret. When the children were in school, or away from the house, Liz preferred to keep her husband in panties. Since he often worked at night, there were times when he was home while the maid was cleaning.
In the next posting I will talk a little more about Liz and her husband. Now, it has been over a week since anyone has posted a poem for me. It is about time.
Love, Mistress Kathy

A Basic Question Or Two ???
The term 'boy friends' leads to another question. Why is it 'OK' for a women to have girl friends, but it seams a little strange for a man to have 'boy friends'. Does anyone have an opinion on this?
Here is another question to think about. John and I recently came back from a visit with our son. We stayed in a nice hotel. For the first time ever, our 'bell boy' was actually a 'bell girl".
She was very nice and very professional. She, however, made John feel uncomfortable. He has difficulty with the idea of a women handling our suitcases. Here is the question. Why does everyone brag on a women that does a traditional male job, when a man that does a traditional female job is often ridiculed?
This morning I made a brief tour of some of the web sites dealing with female domination, and male submission. Why do so many of the web sites, including the blogs, seam to have such a strong emphasis on sexual matters. The relationship between a mistress wife and her submissive husband is about intimacy. I think it is the most intimate and loving relationship a man and women can have. In a 'fem/dom' marriage a man gives his entire self to his lady. Her acceptance of his gift is the spiritual consummation of that gift.
Over the last six years I have spoken or emailed with a number of submissive men. A question I generally ask is 'have you ever knelt at the feet of a women'. If the answer is yes, I ask them to tell me about the first time. In almost every case a man can tells me exact details of something that happened many years in the past. On one occasion I had a man in his seventies tell me about the time he had the courage to kneel in front of his teenage girl friend. My other question to him was if this was such an important experience for you, why have you never shared this desire with your wife.
The professional dominatrix experience may have a place in the lives of many men, but it doesn't lead to the inner contentment that most men seek. A man may enjoy the thrill of kneeling at the feet of a dominatrix, but the women he really wants to serve is the wife who loves him. Why is it so hard for so many women to understand this basic need in their men?
Why do they fear it?
Women, by nature, want to be pursued. Women don't want to drive the car, they want to be taken. For some reason women often think that these natural female needs are in conflict with the idea of becoming a mistress wife. When it is cold at night John is still the man I cuddle up with. He is still the man that holds me tight in the night, and lets me know that everything will be fine in the morning. John is still a man. John is still my man, and being submissive makes him no less of a man.
There is one question I can answer. There is an idea that 'fem/dom' marriages are not consistent with family values. Looking at all the sites on the web I can understand why people have this idea. However, in my limited experience, men who are ruled by their wives are both happy and loyal to the family. Just because the wife is head of the family, doesn't mean that the family is less functional. As I said many times in this blog, the man may no longer sit at the head of the table, but he does sit in the number one position next to the wife and mistress. It is a position of respect.
We need to all realize that the world is changing at a rapid pace. It is no longer unfeminine for a women to give orders either in the work place, the military, or the home. In many cases when men and women mix, the women are the better leaders. Women have a certain natural authority over men. For some reason women do not like to accept this idea. My son has a female boss. She is his age or a little younger. To these young people this is a very natural and normal work relationship. Yes, the world is changing. The leaders in this changing world are the young women; like Karen, my daughter, and my son's supervisor. They may not have it all figured out, but they understand one important concept. These women all understand it is up to the man to adjust to their world.

My Guilty Pleasure
For some reason I wanted John to have the feeling of what it would be like to be a real slave. He has only been out there for twenty minutes or so, but the sweat is pouring off of him. He doesn't really understand why he is being ordered to work on this hot day, he only knows it is his wife's command. However, that is all he really needs to understand.
I heard from Karen today. She decided to give her guy a work weekend. This weekend he will be painting the apartment. When he is finished the painting, he is to clean every thing including the stove. She took the advice of 'lost soul' who made the comment. Instead of menial task she is giving her guy real work to do.
In my opinion men do too much paper work. Too much office work. Today's man needs to do more physical work. It is good for their muscles. It is especially good when a man understands that work is a way of serving his lady. When the weather is cooler, I like to relax outside with a book, and watch John do the garden. I think it gives a man a certain sense of satisfaction to know that his mistress is watching and approving of what he is doing.
It is really a simple thing, but yes, I have come to enjoy having authority over my husband. John may not want to work on this hot day, but he would rather work than take the consequences of not obeying me. John didn't do anything wrong to earn this little assignment, it is just a way to let him know who is boss. John needs to be constantly reminded of who is the mistress, and who is the slave. It is not that he forgets. It is more that he needs the sense of assurance.
It's been about forty minutes now, time to bring my boy in, and let him take a shower. I expect John to thank me for letting him come back in.
Love, Mistress Kathy

The Comments
The comment by 'lost soul' made me laugh, but it also made me think. In my opinion Karen's guy is not very different from most men who have not experienced true female authority and discipline. Of course, her guy is selfish. Of course, he is trying to top from the bottom. This is all typical submissive male behavior. This is where discipline and training come into the relationship.
If a women is going to rule her husband, she needs to establish authority over him. 'Lost soul' suggested some sought of long weekend where the male is required to stay naked, and do menial chores for his lady. While I have never used a 'ball gag' or did many of the things suggested in his email, I do like the concept of putting a man through some sought of initial training program.
When John came home six years ago, he was put through an intensive training program. The kennel was part of it. Although the kennel part of John's training only lasted a few weeks, it had a tremendous impact on his behavior and his outlook on life. It taught him that I was serious about this 'fem/dom' marriage business, and that if our new relationship was going to work, he needed to understand who was the boss.
The kennel used for John was long enough for him to lay comfortably, and sit up in. The entrance door was very small. Having to crawl in and out added to the feeling of humiliation.
One important thing. I never locked John in the kennel. Upon the command 'kennel up' he was expected to crawl into the kennel, take the lock in his hand, and snap it shut. Most of the time I wouldn't even be in the room with him. This demonstrated both his level of obedience and his confidence in me. Once again, John and I had been married for many years.
Some men have a tremendous fear of being locked up. For these men the kennel will not work.
A man should not be forced to do anything he does not want to do. Above all, John locked himself in the kennel because it was what I wanted, what I demanded, and most of all he wanted to please me.
Some of you may think the kennel experience is cruel. What I can tell you is that John would rather spend three hours in the kennel than an hour of corner time. Many of you men that read this blog may not think of corner time as a serious punishment. For those men I say try to spend even fifteen minutes on your knees holding a coin against a wall. Also, remember John's corner time is spent on a hard stone floor, not a soft carpet.
The kennel, corner time, etc are things that have worked for me. I am not the answer lady. I am not recommending any of these things to other women as training tools. Someone asked me if John still is punished. The short answer is yes, but not nearly as much as he was in the early stages of our 'fem/dom' relationship. Men are not stupid. They learn. If you are consistent with your discipline, they learn what it takes to please you. Sure, from time to time a man may test you; he may want to know that you are still his mistress, but once a man settles into his place in a relationship, the need for punishment is relatively rare.
While locked in the kennel there was no books, no radio or television. If it was night the room was dark. The only appliance in the room was a baby monitor. I always wanted John to be able to call for me if there was a real problem. He understood, however, that simply calling mistress because he was tired of being in the kennel was not a good idea.
There is really only one thought I would like to leave for women, like Karen, who are considering a 'fem/dom' relationship with their man. Always remember that most submissive men are loving and caring, and want to please you. Deep down they want to know that you accept who they are, and their gift of submission. They want to know that you enjoy being their mistress. Yes, in simple terms, they want to know that you enjoy 'owning' them, and truly enjoy the authority you have over them.
From time to time I do show John off to a few of my friends. It is not because I want to humiliate him. It is because I am so proud of him. What I have learned is that an obedient, loving, and well trained man is a treasure. In time, with word of mouth, and the Internet, more and more women will come to understand this.
Love, Kathy
