I have always been a feminist, by instinct first and conviction later. Being bisexual helps: since my preference for dominating women is only a preference (men are fun, but women are cuddly), I never got it mixed up with my politics.

All my partners have been militant feminists whose view, like mine, was that if they chose to submit to a man in private that was their personal right. Like Seraph, I find it far more exciting to dominate and humble a strong woman who believes in her freedom. Femsubs who say things like "this worthless cunt is only of value when it has a Master" turn me right off (no offence, girls, it's just my taste - oh, wait, you wouldn't take offence anyway). On the other hand, if I can make a ball-breaking bitch say that in the throes of abject submission, =then= it's a massive charge.

My wife and I used to have a pair of badges that said I'M A FEMINIST AND SO IS MY MASTER / I'M A FEMINIST AND SO IS MY SLAVEGIRL. They started a lot of interesting conversations at conventions.

By the way, when my wife (who also switched) was still looking for malesubs to play with, one of the things that eventually made her give up was that the sort of men who said "I'm a feminist because I believe in the Superior Female" (their capitals) usually turned out to be hardcore male chauvinists the moment you got past the pose. Interesting, that.
