You really lucked out there!
It's funny, I tried to explain to my wife on our first date and she totally didn't understand the concept of BDSM ... to her it was something baddies did on TV.
Yet we settled into lifestyle D/s everywhere apart from the bedroom, lol
"These days I feel butts are for hitting, grabbing, and displaying handkerchiefs."
Still plenty of repertoire there, then!
As for hemorrhoids, between them and other issues from overuse, I ended up having surgery ... can't do internal butt stuff now, but at least I'll get to old age with normal function. I miss it sometimes, but I guess that's part of surviving far longer than anyone expected!
