I've mentioned a few times in the past how the things I learned as a member of the kinky community have served me well as a parent. When Kouryou-chan burned her hand I knew what to do thanks to old SM classes on fire and waxplay; when the lower limbs of the oak tree dried and fell off, I fashioned a rope ladder using a stepknot so they could still get to the higher branches.

I was making cheap pizza, the kind where the bread is pre-made and the sauce comes in a packet; just supply your own cheese and and oven. The sauce packets are pretty skimpy and it's hard to get every last drop out of them.

Then I remembered a trick using two chopsticks and two rubber bands, to make a kind of squeegee to pull the packet through and get all the sauce out. And where did I learn this trick? Cheap nipple clamps from bad Japanese bondage videos.

warning: yuck factor.

Heh.

When our son was first born, my wife had huge issues with changing diapers because poo is yucky. I on the other hand, was uniquely qualified for this task. Not because I had ever changed a diaper in my life (I hadn't), but because I was used to dealing with poo.

I have a fetish for anal sex, and I am not one of the lucky majority who can take it in the ass anytime without making a mess. Instead, I have to take care of things in advance to make things neat and tidy. While this is not a process that I *like*, I'm certainly used to dealing with it. Frequently.

And so, in its own little way, one of my own fetishes has prepared me in some way for parenthood.

Oddly enough, I'm the opposite. Although I'm a fan of sodomy (no, really!?) I've never enjoyed the cleaning out process and have always had a pretty hard-core scat aversion. It was one of the things that made me worried about being a dad; I could barely deal with that when it happened in my adult life, how would I deal with it all the time.

Oddly, nature rewired my brain. It made the process tolerable, a recognition of necessity. The aversion came back full-bore when the kids were old enough to take care of themselves.

The kinky community: better at preparing you for life than scouting.

Teehee, I use general brainfucks at work to keep the kids I work with in line...
Know how to work with electra through electroplay and I always get the best knots around the kids wrists with balloons so they dont fly away...
