Question - stereotypes.

[marita_c]

From the world of totally random questions for my writing project:

An army General (nice guy, but probably sleeps in his uniform) as a top in a gay BDSM relationship - too stereotypical?  (pretend you saw it on TV, as unlikely as that sounds... Would you find it annoying? Offensive?)

I haven't even considered than angle, thanks. Although army men are often portrayed in the media as being very controlling in the home setting as well (perhaps that is why I'm afraid of the stereotype).

I think that's sometimes true, but if you're saying he's a nice guy. Also, people usually don't rise that high in the military if they don't understand their issues and know how to keep from bringing the job home.

I would need an argument for why this isn't an extension of his work and why it's relaxing for him.
