This isn't intended to be "play". And I personally don't think the examples he cites are arbitrary. They do show a lack of common sense.

I'd actually feel better if they were playing with this stuff on purpose, because I have some pretty negative reactions to the idea that she's failing all the time, as the viewpoint character expresses it. The arbitrariness of what is being considered failure bothers me, which is why I'd like it better if that was part of their deliberate play. But of course I'm bringing all my own historical feelings into that. Because I've experienced BDSM that was abusive, I'm extremely sensitive to arbitrary rules and scenarios where it's unclear how one could succeed. <br /><br />Beautifully written, and full of plenty of food for thought!Annabeth Leonghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07455191827664110878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9156334464585894857.post-22458636742213094312016-03-17T19:53:56.397-04:002016-03-17T19:53:56.397-04:00I still find this whole thing fascinating because ...I still find this whole thing fascinating because its so alien to my nature, so far as I know.<br /><br />But you never know. it was alien to you once.

I'm having trouble deciding whether this character actually enjoys having his <br />(or her-- I've known female 'Sirs') sub screw up, so he can have the fun of punishing her. For that matter, isn't she enjoying that scenario, too?<br /> <br />it does look like she was set up for the butt plug episode. If so, forgiveness and guilt take on a different, somewhat stylized character.<br /><br />But maybe I'm imagining all that.Sacchi Greenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10801164916418570059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9156334464585894857.post-14834951609724215612016-03-14T22:35:07.856-04:002016-03-14T22:35:07.856-04:00Welcome back, Daddy!
