Smoking Fetish Diary: Mission Statement

This blog is starting today. This is the first entry.

I have had a smoking fetish for at least 29 years. Possibly longer. Other than the women whom I have dated, the therapists I have seen, and my private, abandoned diary, I have never shared my story. Because this is anonymous, I guess it could be said that I am not really sharing the story here either; at least not in a way that makes me vulnerable. Nonetheless, it is a form of sharing, because I am opening myself up to comments, and also providing my experiences as a potential avenue through which you can evaluate and accept your own fetish.

So let me tell you what my "mission statement" will be for this blog:

• To relate the history of my smoking fetish, as far back as I can remember
• To talk about the role it has played in my life, and in my relationships
• To talk about my feelings around the fetish
• To discuss the role the internet has played in my acceptance (and indulgence)
• To talk about types of material available online, and my preferences
• To talk about different segments and variations of the fetish

And let me tell you what are specific "non-goals" for this blog:

• I do not intend to post or repost photos or videos; this could change
• I will not reveal the identity of anyone from "my world"
• I will probably not engage in battle with detractors of the topic

Now that we have that out of the way, let the story begin.
