Shame

I feel kind of shitty for making a big deal about teaching English to an S&M dancer in my earlier post. I've given her a couple of lessons since, and she's such a generous, profoundly kind-hearted person, one of the most fascinating people I've met in a long time. But above all, in so many ways she defies stereotypical assumptions about what someone involved with S&M would be like, and I feel bad for sensationalising the very fact I was going to teach her. As the Japanese say, 反省します (I'm reflecting on my behaviour.)
