Programme on SM, ITV, 11pm

[ciphergoth]

11.00-11.30pm, ITV London: Pleasure Seekers. People who enjoy sado-masochism talk about their passion including a couple who road-test a new whip.

We (ergotia and I) reckon we'll see:

• A mid-thirties transvestite who looks like a glamorous secretary, and is a web designer
• A well-preserved hard-faced mid-forties blonde called Margaret living in the suburbs with Master Doug (who is an in-house accountant in a firm that makes lawnmowers, and is really ugly), wearing hideous leathers
• Detailed coverage of a fetish that no-one we know does
• Someone who runs a sex shop showing you their crap handcuffs in a very annoying voice
• Voiceover by a crap psychologist
• A professional dominatrix
• A tame, lame stage show, possibly featuring some very half-hearted girl-on-girl action
• No really good-looking people who are not in the sex industry
• No queers, apart from maybe some women who swing
• No switches
• No-one really smiling and expressing a sense of joy.

And I would really love to be wrong about this sort of thing!

*sigh* I just came late (narf! narf!) & missed it. I wonder if it was on TV up here?

I'm guessing there were no switches, either... ah well, back to my imagination...

It was at least mentioned once, but only when one guy said he'd tried and it wasn't for him...

...and it was used as a verb, not a noun

"I tried switching [roles], but didn't like it"
