I hadn't wanted to stick my oar in (which as many of you know is not at all typical for me) but I think this has has gotten a trifle ridiculous.
The poster says she is 11, which I take her word for even though she writes like someone who is older (so did I at age 11). Her cousin is 20. Her cousin tied the poster in a way that the poster found consensual, and the implication was that this was hardly her first TUG (she had her own bonadage materials). We have had numerous stories like this here before and no one got upset like this (except for the Dommemother fracas). The only real difference this time is perhaps the poster chose her words in a way that through no fault of her own was possibly misinterpreted by others (who I'm sure meant well but maybe jumped the gun a bit). But the way some people are talking here, you'd think we were reading a story by a 30 year old describing the tie up of a child in the most graphic, salacious terms possible... like Lolita as told by the Marquis de Sade. Now everyone is over-reacting and turning this thread into a frikking war zone, and turning this young person's attempt to tell a story into a complete and utter disaster.
Anyone ever consider that *that* might be pretty traumatic to a child? And all this continued bickering isn't helping her - or anyone else for that matter. Give her a break,for crying out loud!
Maybe what LilkittyluvsTUGS101 needs to do is abandon this thread (which has been pretty thoroughly ruined by now) and start her story all over again (if she still wants to tell it at all) in a brand new thread; maybe with her cousin (who is apparently aware of all this anyway) helping her with the wording so that no one else gets upset. I know Vivianfan and the others meant well, but I think enough is enough and we should just simmer down and let LkLT101 tell her story the way she wanted to before we all jump to conclusions!
If I'd been able to tell my own Tug stories when I was still 11, they might not have sounded too much different from the way this story now reads (before it got lost in the babble), so I can relate to this on a personal level. A reaction like the ones I've read here would have puzzled me and traumatized me more than anything my brother actually did to me. So can we all please just hush up and let LKLT101 tell the story she wanted to tell? We can always discuss it afterward - if it's not already to late.
Dare to be different... and make a difference.
To boldly go where no one in their right mind has gone before...
