You Never Know...

Once upon a time in my life I was involved with law enforcement.  This was in a different town than I live in now.  I learned one of the most important things about people while having that job....You never know about people.  The people you think would never do something are the ones that do.  the people you think would do something, a lot of times don't.  Doctors and lawyers are involved in a lot of the same things, crime waise, as the ordinary man.  Murders within their families are committed.  Drugs are being, used sold and distributed.  Affairs are going on left and right.  You should never profile someone, or streotype them, as you will get yourself in a bind very quickly by assuming someone will act a certain way due to their social class, dress, car, etc...

As I haven't been in that line of work in a while, my line of thinking about those type things has diminished a bit.  But it all came back to reality this week when I heard a bit of gossip.  Well, not total gossip, as it's actually the truth and has been verified.  Anyway...I discovered a prominant Doctor in my current town, and his wife, are big into the swingers scene.  I don't really know them but know who they are.  To look at them, you woul never think it.  But then again, what does a swinger look like?  They have quite a kinky side, and enjoy playing with others together as well as separately.  Never in a million years would I have thought they would be doing something like that. 

While I was traveling for work this week, I ended up at a restaurant bar in downtown Houston.  It had a nice outdoor patio area, the bar was half inside and half outside, enabling people to enjoy the nice weather, and the usual inside seating area.  I sat at the bar, had a few beers, ate some dinner, and wondered.  Having found out what I did about the Doctor got my mind back into it's old mode of thinking.  I began looking around at all the people in the restaurant and wondering what it is they are hiding.

It's kind of fun to look at people, usually women for me, and try to figure out what they like and are into sexually.  You look at the hot twenty something across the bar and think "I bet she's wild as hell in the sack".  Then you look at another lady that appears to have just come from church and think "I bet she's as boring as watching paint dry".  Or you see a very attractive business woman and think "I bet she high powered by day, but needs a good spanking at night".  It can just be fun to look around and try to figure out how people really live their lives.

The truth is most people will never know.  No mater who it is, how much money they do or don't have, or how they appear...you never know what's going on behind closed doors.  They could be exactly what you think and expect, or they could be into something you could never imagine.  Kind of falls in line with don't judge a book by it's cover.  Until you get a good glimpse inside, you will never truly know.

Daddy and I play the people watching game too - trying to figure out people's secret proclivities
and guess their fantasies...it's a blast!

I think what most taught me this lesson was finding out that evidently Paul and Linda McCartney were big into the swingers scene...who knew??

Have a great weekend!

I always take a little comfort in knowing that most people have a dirty secret.

I love this post...No one would ever expect that I am a submissive woman. I am a property manager and who at times have to get nasty with my tenants.

I sometimes wonder if I will ever be figured out by a family member or even a stranger.
