INTRO
Hi all. My name is Domina Vontana. I am a low key admin for the most part and it's never been a problem because y'all are so wonderful. Thank you for being here and continuing to show up for the past ten years.
I've been a professional and lifestyle Dominant in DC for the past 15 years. I have two full time submissives, one who lives with me. I am blessed with an incredible chosen family comprised of other queer leather folk like myself. I have one dog, a German shepherd mix who is 1.5 years old.
BOOK CLUB
Book club will be held online on the new moon of each month. The new moon dates for the remainder of the year are 10/25, 11/23, 12/23. the first book club selection is "Sexual Fluidity" Understanding Women's Love and Desire" by Lisa M. Diamond. https://www.amazon.com/Sexual-Fluidity-Understanding-Womens-Desire/dp/0674032268 We will discuss this book on 10/25. If anyone needs help accessing the material please reach out to me. I will gladly work with you to make sure you have the materials you need. I can do this for up to three folks, the first three who reach out.
For the past ten years I have taught at John Hopkins University in the psychology department - human sexuality, specifically paraphilias, aka kink and BDSM. This year I will only be teaching one course. The department has unfortunately decided to eliminate all but one course on human sexuality for the entire undergraduate student body. Therefore, I'm going to take what I know, what I've learned and most importantly the literature I've been introduced to and we're going online.
I am a writer, a teacher and therefore I must be a reader too, but social media has shifted the way we all do that. As one who is NOT a digital native I am accurately aware of the difference between how I focus now and how I used to focus. Therefore, one of the goals of this ongoing event is to save my brain from the meltdown that is social media. Oh I'll still be on social media, but in a much more diminished manner because I have made the deliberate choice to build an audience based on thought and discussion and not thots and dick pics. I hope you will join me.
