I have seen it, and know people personally who do it, but like I said it does nothing for me. The people I know who do it, are married and they love it, and it seems to go well for them. Doesn't bother me, I could care less what grown people do, as long as everyone is on the same page.

Unfortunatly for the pain lovers they are very prone to getting someone truly abusive and not being able to realize it until it is too late. There are some sick freaks who get their jollies from beating the daylights out of a woman or man. Those are not lovers. Those are sick, abusive, freaks!

Exactly. As long as all parties are in agreement there won't be a problem.

I think alot of people get confused when it comes to Dom/Sub and Master/Slave relationships. Most Master/Slave relationships start off as Dom/Sub relationships because the trust level MUST be there for a Master/Slave relationship.

Subs can stop the play when they choose. True slaves give up their ability to quit because they trust their Master enough to stop any play that is too difficult for them to handle and not to go too far in the first place.

I can honestly say, never having tried it, I already know it's not for me.

I don't fit tidy into a role and I'm really not interested in submitting to someone or having someone submit to me.

I was just reading some threads in the DC forum and when I saw this I thought I was still in it, hahaha.

Anyway to answer the OP no I'm not active in that.

Just as good too. Knowing your limits is the key to a good life and all of its aspects.

Some people know it is for them and others know that it certainly isn't for them.

It fascinates me intellectually, but I would find that lifestyle difficult and overwhelming on a daily basis. (I am basically lazy with a poor imagination and a lot of other stuff to get done).

Don't sell yourself short! I am sure you have plenty of good ideas and a great imagination for the things you are passionate about!

Most do not live in a 24/7 setting. This is quite rare. Most live normal lives and have sex the same amount as others do. Just to be clear about my question I don't mean that you live the BDSM life on a daily basis. Just frequently according to your own sex life.

I do have some (sexual and otherwise) submissive traits that come up when I'm in a relationship. However... BDSM as in chains, ropes, ritualized sex, punishment spanking, calling my SO "Master" and all? Not for me.

But I loved the movie Secretary!

Oh it doesn't have to be hardcore BDSM. Just anything you do that you know is part of the lifestyle on a regular basis. Everyone has their limits and I don't expect them to be the same as mine!
