Meeting Some Of The Local Characters

VelvetLord : Founder I'm a 43 year young male Dom now residing in Blenheim. (Seems lots of us are either moving away or already living outside Dunedin). I've been involved in the Dunedin group since it started and met most of the regulars and some of the not-so-regulars. Before that I got interested in some of the BDSM I found on the internet and wanted to find out more. I got talked into attending a Mini-con in Wellington which was a real eye opener. I've learnt a lot in the last 4 years and I hope to go on learning till I'm in a box. Mostly I'm into D/s (I dont like to hurt people, {much}), teasing and sensation play. I've left a wonderful sub in Dunedin who over the last 18 months or so has joined me in this great learning curve. The group has also helped a lot with people exchanging their thoughts and/or experiences in an open and friendly atmosphere. I'll take this opportunity to invite all the lurkers on the list to come out of hiding and attend a munch, or contact someone personally to meet for a drink and a chat. You'll find a very good cross section of people in the group, and most of them wont bite (unless you specifically ask them to). Cheers for now.

Ho||owmen Hiya Ho||owmen is a 19 year old pet. He is faithful to Maria, his computer, chillies and chocolate. He is caring and very patient, has an interest in archery and leatherworks and will someday be a mad scientist. Or doctor. Probably both. He's an intellectual with a blissfully dirty mind.

Ray Hi everyone. I'm Ray. I've only been with the group since June last year, and the last few months I've been a stranger as work and other things have made it difficult to get to munches. I'm 40 years old and it was only last year when I came to realise and accept that I am sub...(one of a rare breed it seems - a male sub who cannot switch). I have a really good relationship with an online Domme and it was through knowing her as a good friend that awakened me to my true self. She has been my rock throughout. I'm very shy until I have known people for a while, but I have found the people I have met in the group to be very welcoming and supportive. I've discovered a few kinks in me over the last year, and whereas before I would have felt guilty about having them because of society's so-called acceptable standards, I now feel free to express them and have fun :-) I've put my membership on a kind of temporary suspension as I try and sort out my work and some personal stuff, but I hope in the very near future to get back along to the munches and other activities planned. I hope I can get to meet some of the names I don't recognise on here too. :-)

Sue For those I have meet, hello again and for those I have yet to meet.. my name is Sue, and I confess to being very much a lurker on here these days. I am 38, single and sit on the fringes of BDSM. In fact not really sure where I sit, when I have a free five mins I shall ponder that one. I don't make the munches, it clashes with one of my other habits. Thursday night is casino night. Now there is a thought as your just across the road... move the munch to the casino. That's me, short and very brief. Later

dryad How do you do? I'm dryad. I'm 26, work as a microbiologist, and have a fetish for corsets. I also enjoy cooking, coffee, chocolate, reading, gardening, cats, lots of great big trees, goff-stuff, candle-light, pagan-stuff, dancing, native bush, Victoriana, good old-fashioned courtesy, 50's glamour, remote forests, red wine, did I mention trees?, beautiful big old houses, twilight walks, thunder storms, fire, gothic/medieval design and sewing, and trees. Needless to say I don't have a whole lot of time to watch television *grin*

Adam Greetings fellow kinks, Have been putting this of for some time but really just had to finally do it. I go by the name of Adam but most of the group know me as the old fellow who is a regular attender at all munches and events. About 2or 3 years ago I had my 1st B&D experience in ChCh with a professional lady and I really enjoyed it, when I came back home I noticed an ad. in the local paper by a professional lady , again it was most enjoyable and she told me there was a local group here in Dn. Meet Chrissy and Andrew, and now the rest is history. These are all people who can think and act outside the square, are non judgmental and are great company. My wife is extremely vanilla, which is a great shame but that is life, we all don't have the same ideas, desires or out look on life and its pleasures. As the years roll by I have made a conscious decision to try all aspects of a sexual nature, I would rather die with a great memory than wondering what I had missed. As this journey has progressed I have been amazed at the great people I have meet and from such a broad social background. The more I go on this journey and start to understand the various Fetish's and all the other secret desires that that we think that we alone have, but are a real part of a great many people, then I think I have been trulely blessed to be part of such a great group of people.

FlameHawk Hi there My name is Heath. Well I am not sure what to say as this is post midnight here. *grin* I've been a member of #nzbdsm (IRC) for years and I have been more of an observer. I've been to a couple of parties, where I had the fortune of receiving a flogging, a number of spankings and a waxing. I've gotten to know a few of the people and consider them friends. I am still very curious (more in the sensation play than the whole D/s thing) and willing to experiment with many things. I am always looking for people wanting to experiment too. I am a gay tutor at SIT in Invercargill and I enjoy many interests - not just BDSM...hehe.... I am a chat junkie and I am always online; chatting on IRC, ICQ, etc. Up until September last year, I didn't have a car, and so couldn't make it to play parties, etc. A New Year's resolution is to make it to as many (at least Dunedin) play parties to meet some of the new people that have sprung up. Hopefully I am not the only gay boy in Southern Kinx. Well I am not sure what else to say. If you go to my site that has more information about me and you can always email me or ICQ me or something if you want to find out more. There - I HOPE that's enough...hehe...dream hon, I am sure you can think of more to write about me - you know me quite well - just steal a pic off my site. (dream{H}: my two cents worth: this guy is one of the sweetest people i know and he's great at doing the dye thing on my hair too *chuckle*, hugs hon...ooooh permission to steal *chuckle*) Heath

oxyegene Hello everyone, my name is Katrina, I am 22 years old and have been involved in BDSM for about 4 years. Trained mostly online except for 3 wonderful months over the summer of 2002, I am a deep submissive with no masochistic tendencies. One of my passions has been training in Gorean role play, although I have since decided to concentrate on how I can be the best submissive for my future Dominant. I am currently compeleting a Bsc in Biochemistry while working part-time in graphic design and web design.

Meeting Some Of The Not So Local Characters

Raewyn My name is Raewyn, sometimes a domme but mostly submissive. I hail from Wellington (which I totally adore) but I am also in love with Dunedin. I have been to many of the Southern Kinx play parties and feel a part of the group as i know many of the members personally. Have been in the lifestyle for over 3 years now and an active participant in many of the regional groups throughout New Zealand. Being in Wellington, i am a member of our local group which is called The Endorphin Society, or TES for short. I have been actively involved in the running of this club plus have been involved in the annual organising of a few of the BDSM TES Conferences that we hold here. I am single and fancy free and loving every minute of it. If you are new to the area of Dunedin I would totally recommend Southern Kinx as a friendly and supportive group for you to attend. I am always happy to share experiences and learn new things, look forward to meeting more of you all in the future.

SteveC Hmm, OK. An intro.. I'm not a 'local', in fact I live in ChCh, and am known as 'SteveC'. Male, almost 45, Dom. Will that do?

Liz Hi All my name is liz and i'm proud to be the owned property of SteveC and reside in Christchurch. i have been involved in the Christchurch UB group for nearly a year and have enjoyed playing a small role in helping with the last two play parties that we have had. I had the pleasure of meeting some of the Dunedinites at the last party and am looking forward to seeing them again and the rest of you at your Dunedin party in July. See you all in a few months

Sir Warren and His julie Hi. Time for me to do the intro thing too I guess! I am in my early sixties and live in West Auckland. I am relatively new to the scene and certainly a Dom. Have very recently met a lovely sub in Illinois who will soon be wearing my collar. Its in the post between NZ and the USA presently. We anticipate meeting in the spring if not sooner and then deciding whether a lifetime commitment is for us. I originally joined your list as I was looking for a kind considerate and gentle Dom (should there be one!) to introduce to a prospective totally inexperienced subbie I had contact with in Central Otago. I have sort of decided the risk of such introduction is fraught with too many risks! Anyway it has been interesting reading about people in the City of Dunedin who enjoy the same sorts of things I do! Regards Sir Warren & His julie ps. I once lived in Oamaru when it was a totally dry town!! Officially anyway ~smiles~.

Heliax An Intro... well hmmmm... I'm Bill, online known as Heliax, from Auckland, until recently Pukekohe to be specific, but I've sold my house and I'm moving up toward the city to be nearer K'rd... opps I mean the city :) I'm a Dom/switch I guess, but then labels are best suited to canned food :) I'm into all sorts off s/m stuff, but particularly rope bondage, crops, canes, clamps (alliteration not intended), and I have a huge fetish for latex. I am planning to move to the UK for a while to work and travel around Europe, where I plan to attend a few fetish parties and expand my latex collection. I also edit the Open Directory's /adult/shopping/clothing/latex category http://dmoz.org and spend a bit of time online. When I'm not doing s/m stuff I'm into cooking, tramping, traveling, art, movies, and alternative music (e.g. Stereolab, Sola Rosa, Relaxomatic Project). I'm into the scene as much for the social side as anything, and have met some wonderful friends here, and had some wonderful experiences, especially at the last Midwinter Mayhem. I hope to make something down there before I head overseas, so lock up your valuables :) Hugs to all that deserve them :)

claire I'm claire (or tigerlillie), currently living in Auckland but spiritually still very much of Dunedin. I'm of the submissive persuation and i've been involved in the community pretty much since the beginning of the Dunedin group. Although this involvment is, of necessity, now at a distance i love keeping up with everyone, both personally and as a group, so keep those message coming!
