When I was at school, being Piggy-in-the-Middle meant that people would throw a ball over your head whilst you attempted to catch it so you could escape out of the middle and stop being Piggy. In grown-up life, I also use the term when I’m caught between the competing desires of two friends. But now, as I’ve started having three-way plays more frequently, normally with He Who Must Be Obeyed, a female friend and me, I’m discovering a whole new meaning to the term….
Those of you who read and enjoyed my writing as Juliet Aston-Beresford at the late, great Lowewood Academy blog will know that Juliet enjoyed getting people into trouble. And since I’ve been playing more with other girls and especially given my own streak of dominance, I’ve discovered a new pleasure – getting the other girl into trouble. Unlike dear Juliet (like this for example), I’m not doing it maliciously, but I am suggesting rude things that I know they’d like to do but are too shy to ask for.
In addition, when the female friend is someone who I’ve previously dommed on my own, it gives me an ever-so-slightly elevated status in the three, the Head Girl to the Headmaster above her and the fifth-former below her, the junior manager to the CEO and the personal assistant, the Head Housemaid to the Master of the House and the new scullery maid. I’m still being submissive – but I do get the opportunity (lasciviously aided by HWMBO’s wickedness) to make the odd suggestion, which if she blushes about, he takes up with alacrity.
Being Piggy in this sense is great fun because as well as then knowing that my friend is having a great time, as am I, I also get to indulge one of my other kinky passions, voyeurism. Voyeurism often has a bad rap, because many people do it without the knowledge of the person they are watching, but in a kink context, it’s amazingly erotic to watch one of your lovely friends and your lovely husband get it on. Especially when you catch their eyes over HWMBO’s shoulder and you exchange a look of mutual mischief.
I think I’ll be playing Piggy lots more in 2010!
Jessica, a much more fun version of that old game, enjoy.
Warm hugs,
Paul.
In our playgrounds, it was called Monkey in the Middle, which has the benefit of connoting mischief. And now you are making me think of several more pleasant meanings for the generally barfy American expression “Spanking the Monkey” [wanking]. ha ha. I think I would like to see that, actually: what happens to monkeys in the middle who take their stirrings too far.
Oh, I so enjoy getting other submissives into the sort of trouble I think they’ll enjoy! Not quite reached the domming stage yet (though it was suggested to me last Saturday
) but the “dropping them in it” bit is brill for me. And hopefully for them too!
