I see that you sponser all kinds of fetish and mistress sites and earn money off them ..they are exact to mine ..are you saying that they dont take donations .Yes all Mistresses have people who donate to keep her sites and dungeon open.

Having been in the lifestyle for more years than I care to admit (unless of course I admit to getting involved in it at the age of 2) apparently things in CT are handled differently than they are in NC, TN, VA, Washington DC, IA, and ND, as I have NEVER dealt with a "donation" situation for scenes. A monthly cover charge for munches, and a cover charge to get into clubs yes, but donations to help someone keep their dungeon up? NO. Does that mean it's not possible that some people help each other out in a bind, of course not, but to assume that everyone in the lifestyle is a "pro" that charges/accepts donations is a falacy.

THANK You Tommy! I thought perhaps I was seeing things as no one else has pointed that statement out. If she runs this out of her home following all guidelines and under a business license then she should have known the laws and they quoted her what is illegal - which happens to be something she charges a "donation" for...seems pretty clear.
