I was happy to find something that catered to my obsession, and even moreso that it was an interactive environment where I could upload pictures, stories and comments.
And now, years later, this community still exists, with regular updates of fetish material that you can't find anywhere else.
Although I am amazed that there are others out there who share my interest, I am even more awed by the technology that makes all of this possible.
When I was a kid I remember being invited to a Radio Shack demo for the TRS-80 computer. This would have been around 1980, and I was a bit more of a wirehead than I am now.
Anyway they had a few dozen computers set up in a hotel conference room and they had us playing around with BASIC to run some simple programs. I remember lots of "Oooohs" and "Aaaahs" as we watched BASIC perform for us. Simple stuff, cheesy in retrospect, but so was the first Model T when compared to a McLaren F1.
It was truly a paradigm shift, but I had no clue then just how much potential there was in that little 4k, then 16k machine. Out of that primitive personal machine, along with the Commodore, Atari and Texas Instruments, we now have the hardware, the software and the network to do things that are mind boggling.
We can share information nearly instantaneously across the globe.
People who have never met before can connect and share interests.
And of course, we can join sites to have live audio/video chat with a girl wearing nothing but a pair of pantyhose.
Know what? It's only going to get better as systems get smaller, faster and more affordable.
It's also gratifying that sexual fetishes are not looked upon as "perverted" as much anymore. There's still a ways to go, and the danger from various groups is constant, but the attitudes are far more accepting than they were when I was young.
I've had a great time on this board, and I'm looking forward to putting at least another 1000 posts here.
