Questions from![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
abluegirl:
1. How did you get into BDSM, and at what age did you really get into it?
That's kind of difficult to answer... I think I first learned about it conceptually in high school, thanks to Anne Rice and other things I was reading. So through books, mostly, I guess is how. "Really get into it" is harder to answer because I wouldn't say that I am -really- into it, certainly not a part of the scene or anything. I first did something I considered kinky in bed at age 18 though, so I'll go with that answer. :)
2. How would you describe the Wiccan beleifs? I guess i'm mostly interested in what you think about the existance of gods/godesses.
Wow, I consider myself very eclectic, so I'm not the best to ask about Wicca in general. My basic definition would be something along the lines of "a spiritual practice (or religion) centering on the creative forces of Nature, often symbolized by a goddess and god." Since it's a "disorganized" religion, beliefs vary widely from person to person.
Gods and goddesses.... I tend more toward the Hindu-type beliefs about god being in everyone, including me. That is such a big concept though that it is often easier to wrap one's mind around female and male aspects of godhood, and call those aspects into being with you. For example, if I'm needing some nurturing in my life, I might call to mind a mother Goddess figure, like Brigid or Demeter, whose mythos is something I am familiar with. Calling on her brings to mind those qualities in myself.
But again, I can only speak for myself in this, and not for any others, not even those in my coven.
3. What is it about ViggOrli that appeals to you?
The hot man flesh. :D No really, I guess it's the incredibly flexibility of both of them as characters. I think I went on about this a length somewhere and said it much better... Ah yes, here.
4. What is your favorite thing about the place that you live in?
The privacy and being surrounded by nature. I can hear cars on the street below, but not see them, and could (but don't) walk around naked outside if I wanted to and not be seen.
5. Do you have any pets, and what are they like?
I have the world's most hyper golden retriever, Oswald. He is 7 years old and still acts like a puppy.
