[But Julian only shrugs-- changing the status quo here, it's not something he's especially interested in. He'd like things to be different, for better options to be made for the people here, better provisions for Submissives without Dominants, a choice of which societal position they take when they come through that door perhaps, or at least an attempt to align one's personality with the position they're afforded.

But the basic structure, submission and dominance-- the truth is he's all for it. Feels more at home here, in many ways, than he ever has anywhere else.]

Perhaps its only truly worrisome when one looks at it with outside eyes. How many things about our own worlds do you think the people born here would question, and disagree with, if they were able to see it? It's ah, well don't get me wrong. This place has deep and enduring problems. There's much here that could be improved, and dramatically so. But so does any system or rule, doesn't it? Or any system at all.
