Hi MastersBitch,
That's unfortunate, but hardly surprising. Most people are critical of others who don't think the way they do. The stronger their convictions, the more critical they tend to be of those who don't share their convictions (or worse, have opposite convictions). It's human nature and, in a simple sense, is the way "discrimination" works. Conscious effort is needed to suppress it — by those, that is, who think tolerance is important.
If so, that would be a good thing. I hope you will realize, though, that if or when you feel you are beginning to "learn things" here, you will also need to be prepared to move out and expand your horizons in an intellectual sense. I suspect you will be able to do that because you appear to be quite intelligent. I say this because you write well, and writing is an expression of thought processes.
An important point to understand, I would say, is that the hostility you have encountered on other forums is very likely based on the fact that women, under ancient religious law, were considered the property of their husbands — sort of like their television sets, to use a modern analogy. Women have fought long and hard to free themselves from this tyranny, and attained a gigantic victory in the 1960's when "the pill" was developed and approved by the U.S. FDA. For the first time, women had free reign to express their sexuality. Like men, they could fuck whomever they liked without fear of pregnancy. This was followed by the "hippy era" of free love during the 1960's and '70's. In addition, for the first time women could take control of their own lives and compete directly with men for jobs, throughout the workforce, the professions, and in business. Many think the U.S. cultural clashes of those times were caused by the Vietnam war, but that's only partially true. The culture wars of those times were also caused, in large measure, by the sexual and economic liberation of woman that was enabled by the pill.
We are still fighting that culture war. All of this heat and smoke generated by "right to life" religious conservatives (as they're called), in opposition to the U.S. Supreme Court's early '70's Roe v. Wade decision which granted women a constitutionally-guaranteed right to abortion (if they didn't want to bear the child of a man who had impregnated them), is really a smokescreen for an underlying issue that is much more fundamental but which they cannot state openly, because to do so would be socially unacceptable. The religious conservatives want to return to the days when women were "barefoot and pregnant" and were — in essence if not by law — the property of their husbands.
Women have been fighting this long and hard at all levels of society, assisted by men who feel similarly, and even now it is not clear they are going to win. There have been major setbacks under the George "WMD" Bush (and Dick "Waterboarding is Not Torture" Cheney) administration, and it is not obvious that another conservative republican (John McCain) will *not* be elected president in Nov. 2008.
Now, the concept of women being the property of their husbands under ancient religious law may strike you as, well, ancient and arcane and having little or no relevance to today's world. It would be nice if that were actually true, but unfortunately it isn't. About one-fifth of the world population is muslim — i.e., over 1 billion people — and muslim women are, in fact, the property of their husbands. They have no rights whatsoever. An article in today's New York Times online describes some of the implications. It's pretty grim. You can find it here:

The above, I suggest, are some of the reasons you have found yourself getting harsh responses on other sites when you describe yourself as a submissive woman voluntarily submitting to the dictates of a master who treats you harshly. For some additional comments on religion vs. women, see my contributions to this thread (on this forum):

On this site, you can pretty much say whatever you like. If you find a relationship like yours satisfying and have voluntarily sought it out, it's OK to say so. Others may write in and express disagreement, but you're free to tell them to fuck off (or express disagreement with them in whatever ways you like) and continue your contributions. If this happens, you should continue to feel welcome and to feel your contributions are valuable — and I hope you will.
Best wishes—
