What is BDSM?
BDSM is a term which describes a number of related patterns of human sexual behaviour. The major subgroupings are described in the abbreviation "BDSM" itself:
* Bondage (BD)
* Bondage & Discipline (B&D)
* Domination & Submission (D&S, DS, D/S)
* Sadism & Masochism (or Sadomasochism) (S&M, SM)
Many of the specific practices in BDSM are those which, if performed in neutral or nonsexual contexts, are widely considered unpleasant, undesirable, or disadvantageous. For example, pain, physical restraint and servitude are traditionally inflicted on persons against their will and to their detriment. In BDSM, however, these activities are engaged in with the mutual consent of the participants, and typically for mutual enjoyment.
This emphasis on informed consent and safety is also known as SSC (safe, sane and consensual), though others prefer RACK (Risk Aware Consensual Kink), which places the emphasis more on informed consent, and acknowledges the fact that all activities are potentially risky.

I have heard alot about this, my friends are into it, even though I am not.
I realized that of all my friends I am the most conservative...which is kinda scary.
But it is very intersting reading
I'm submissive, pain is a major turn on and I like bondage.
Everyone is different, they like what they like....and its all cool.
OOookaay.....
I guess that answers MY question.
I'm sorta boring then. That's OK though...maybe when I'm hitched 40 years, I'll be in the market for expansion of experience. Obviously, there IS room to grow.
Thanks for the info!
