I really liked the feel of heavy things on me, so I’d put dense heavy things on my chest or stomach and just lay there for a while because I liked how it felt. Now, I very much like being physically dominated, tied up and suspended and would love to do a take down and capture scene.

Watching reruns of I Dream of Jeanie as a kid in the 80’s. We didn’t have cable so it was reruns of old shows for me.

One day I was thinking about this very topic and had an epiphany that I had long had fantasies based on that old show.
