When I first became involved in the BDSM scene it was a lifestyle that was kept very private. Bondage and discipline was not as accepted by mainstream society as it is today, and it was important that a lot of discretion was used. Those around who participated were trusted and honored for their efforts to demonstrate safe, sane and consentual practices. Nothing was done unless agreed upon through conversations between two of us, or sometimes in groups if more players were involved.
The act and art of discussion is a very important factor. Without honest discussion and open communication, we fail ourselves. If partners don't communicate, things can and do go wrong. Scenes can be taken further than desired by one or more of the players, something can be done too hard or not hard enough, etc. People also can sometimes begin to harbor negative feelings because of a lack of proper communication. This forum was created to encourage open dicsussion.
Contact any of us toll free for guidance in safe and sane BDSM play. We're happy to provide live support in proper bondage and discipline techniques for single men, women or between partners.
