Thoughts on This Episode:

  • [Gary] – One more thing…, “It’s really impossible to try to serve face in this head.” – Violet,  “We see you in a way that you are not clearly seeing yourself.” – RuPaul to Kennedy
  • [Damon] – What was up with Violet and Santino? Why is Ginger so defeated? I wonder where Violet/Pearl get their confidence?/I shouldn’t have said anything last week

Closing Thoughts:

  • [Gary] –  THAT is how you exit; Top 4… Violet is still the one to beat, the grid says…Pearl’s in danger, then Kennedy, then Ginger. Potentially it could be Violet vs Ginger in the end.

  • COL287: Canadian Extravaganza!: Thomas Hammond: listened to show at work with my headphones, made my monday enjoyable

Weekly Topic

  •  Pup Play – definition
    • A ‘fetish’ derived from Dom/Sub side of BDSM where the sub counterpart takes on behaviors of a dog, a Dom counterpart takes on a role of “handler/trainer.” Puppies will get into a “headspace” where it is easy for them to shed their human self and accept their puppy self.
  • Roles/Duties
    • As with any fetish, there is no black and white.  It’s not uncommon for pups to take on a slave type of role.
  • Reasons for experience
    • Chester: For me, it allows me to express myself with a different persona. Being obedient is very easy for me, and I enjoy the interactions of a Dom counterpart treating me as a pup.  I also have more self confidence when I am in a public space like a bear run or gear night, I also draw attention to myself and I get hit on quite a bit more.
  • Prevalence/Awareness
    • It is becoming more and more accepted throughout the BDSM/Fetish community, especially at events like Folsom, IML, and CLAW. Particularly “Puppy Moshes.”
  • Outside misunderstanding [what people think it is vs. truly is]
    • As with most BDSM/Fetishes, people not familiar with the community often believe that the “sub” counterpart is not a strong person and enjoys being abused. Puppy play is very much the opposite. Trainers/handlers often treat pups with more caring and playfulness than a regular BDSM/Fetish relationship. It’s very similar to how a person would treat a biological puppy.

I felt the comment left was overly dismissive of concerns about dogs and cold weather (specifically left in a car), so I thought I’d call in the experts, the American Veternary Medical Association. Here’s their take on the topic. In short, your mileage may vary, but leaving a dog in the cold for long periods anywhere is not smart. Their wild cousins are used to it, your indoor pooch is not.”
