When TM and I moved back to our condo, we were in a rush to get Little Poo and although we cleaned up, we left much of our stuff at my parents place, including, as I discovered on Easter Sunday, that damn book. After Easter dinner, I went into the spare bedroom and started to gather up what we had left behind. My mother had kindly organized it in one corner. That's right - my mother had organized everything. And there was the bondage book, propped up against a wall, behind our wedding album. Sigh.
Overall though, I have to confess that it wasn't much of a concern. If my parents can cope with one child being transgendered, they can certainly cope with one child being into rope play. Besides, I'm married and have a child now so I'm sure the book was shuffled into the category of "what a couple does is between them" as opposed to [had I still been single] - "no wonder my daughter isn't married. Men don't marry girls like that".
Heehee wait till the little guy finds that stuff and brings it to show and tell...haha!
ReplyDeleteLol, but better than a vibrator propped up waiting for you.
ReplyDeleteI've thought about what happens to my 'toys' if something happens to me. I guess my family will discover them when they clean out my place after I'm gone. Ah well... I wouldn't be around to know their reaction, so whatever!
ReplyDeleteI wonder if your mum even looked to see what it was about...
Doing the ropework at my sailing course yesterday, i thought of you and smiled. I wonder if the same knots are used?
ReplyDeleteI was working an out-of-town summer gig a few years back, and my parents arranged to switch my twin for a double back in my toronto apartment. Thank God I had a cousin to call and say, "Sweetie, I need you to go move the shoebox under my bed...."
ReplyDeleteRox: By then I'll have taught him how to hog-tie his classmates
ReplyDeleteTorn: Oh lord yes.
Ponita: You have to appoint a friend to come in and do a sweep while your family is mourning at your funeral.
St.D: Indeed they are for the basics: square knot, half hitch, etc.
OLK: Good thinking!
