Don Quixote and I went to a play party. I had a caning date with an extremely cute puppy boy.
DQ asked, “Do you mind if I come along and watch your scene?”
“Sure! It’s not like anything at this party is private.”
We found the puppy boy and then the three of us went looking for a good spot for our scene. We found a bedroom. I bent the boy over at the foot of the bed and began to warm him up, first with my hand and then with light taps of the cane. DQ sat watching at the top of the bed with his back against the headboard.
The puppy boy was wearing a cobalt blue jockstrap which framed his beautiful hairy butt, making it a perfect target. He yelped and he growled and he wiggled his butt after the cane strokes landed. His responses were extremely cute.
“Swish” went my cane.
“Arrrrf!” growled the puppy.
DQ asked, “Do you think the puppy would like something to chew on?”
The puppy nodded vigorously and DQ rolled up his pants leg and offered the puppy his meaty calf. The puppy bit down with every hard stroke of the cane.
“Swish” went my cane.
“Arrrrf!” growled the puppy.
“Oooof” groaned DQ.
I was loving the chain reaction.
Then Jason walked into the room. DQ beckoned him over, but Jason hesitated. He watched the chain of pain and was not certain that he wanted to be part of it. But Jason does not easily shy away from DQ, and after a short while, Jason acquiesced and came forward. DQ reached for Jason’s balls and got a good grip on them.
“Swish” went my cane.
“Arrrrf!” growled the puppy.
“Oooof” groaned DQ.
“Aaaagh!” moaned Jason.
All this from my cane! Over and over again I swung the cane and elicited the reactions, one after the other. It was music to my ears.

I was happy to see the Queer SIG back at TES, this time at the able hands of Nayland and Liz. The first meeting was devoted to the topic of the meaning of the word Queer and various other labels. It started with a panel and ended with a lively discussion in circle. The group struggled with coming up with a clear definition or the word Queer and many appreciated the vagueness of the term.
Many other labels were discussed as well. Two of the words that were touched on near the end were: heteroflexible and bisensual. Several people in the group ridiculed these words. This pissed me off, because I agree with the TES Creed which speaks to the right to self-identify.
I see nothing wrong with the words heteroflexible and bisensual. If someone is a 0.25 on the Kinsey scale, that is valid. If someone want to expand beyond the boundaries of strict heterosexuality, good for them, If someone wants to experiment or just have a taste every now and then, fine. People can be whatever they want to be. I think people should have the right to self-identify, whether Queer or not.
Some people in the group also complained that these words were too vague This after earlier lauding the vagueness of the word Queer. Labels are very constricting and are really just a starting off point. I like to approach each person as a individual and learn about them.
I’ve heard this type of ridicule and derision before in other places. Sometimes it is BDSMers trashing vanillas, sometimes it is hets trashing gays or gays trashing bisexuals (I coud go on). I think we all need to practice a little more tolerance and acceptance,. I am really glad that these discussions are once again happening at TES and I look forward to more meetings of the Queer SIG.
Our cruise ship was really amazing. It had three swimming pools, seven hot tubs, a 9-hole mini-golf course, a skating track, a jogging track, a basketball court and a climbing wall. Peggy entered a speed climbing competition and I took some video:
