Fall used to mean burning leaves

I have noticed a great deal of vanilla on what were BDSM blogs recently. In the past around holiday time it almost seemed as inevitable that a post or two have the season influences in them. Luckily in the past they were only one or two and then the lifestyle would show up in a related story of some one trusted up as a turkey or other centre piece. I touch based with a lot of blogs now and then so I went to check today on how lifestyle they are doing!

Sadly I would say the well is running dry I think as far as lifestyle information, new thing stried even new twist on things already tried or experiences re-visited. I set a google alert to see what was new and disappointment seemed to be the norm. I was directed to everything that might of one time had a hint of the lifestyle in it to porn sites which list every fetish so you are dumped there. Nothing thought provoking very little I feel that had thought just some one has a blog and feels the need to write but have long since left their ideals behind or at least the reason for their blogs.

Is there only some much one can say on the lifestyle? Only so many tales one can recant? I was feeling that way until a new friend from the states contacted me. He spoke of hair singeing! As a young man I would sit in the barbershop and watch now unlike today where men get perms, dye their hair or have highlights in those day men did not have much done to their hair except cut there was singeing where the barber would use what looked like a candle to burn off fine hairs. The process was a bit painful and there was the slight aroma of burnt flesh and hair. So my friend told me of a slave boy he had that he would regularly burn off his body and pubic hair with a candle. He love watching the man’s facial expressions as the flame caught a hair and like a fuse take off till it was extinguished by the skins tight grip on the hair. He did say you had to be carefully as lightening too many at a time could cause burns especial if the hair was long. He also sent me a lovely description of a a fantasy he had of a camp fire and slaves tied close to it causing the same effect but increasing the unknown part as no onw would know exactly when a hair would catch of course there would be the lovely aroma of burnt hair and just the idea of outdoor play at this time of the year was so amusing so some thing new to search out and see how far this type of play has gone. Off course that opened up a whole new interested for me including exciting an old interest of branding which should occupy my time for a while.
